The Trade Remedies Authority will make a recommendation to the Secretary of State for Trade on the imposition of measures. The Secretary of State will take a decision whether to accept or reject the recommendation.

Where the Secretary of State accepts the TRA’s recommendation, he will publish a notice in accordance with section 13 of the Taxation (Cross-border Trade) Act 2018. The notice will specify that the measure comes into force the day following its publication.
