Trade: Unfair Practices
(asked on 24th June 2021) - View Source
Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what plans she has to revise the regulations of the Trade Remedies Authority.
This question was answered on 29th June 2021
HM Government designed a robust trade remedies framework to protect producers across the United Kingdom, but the world has changed since 2018 when it was initiated.
The Secretary of State is exploring her options to tackle unfair trading practices, unexpected surges of imports, and market-distorting practices, so her powers can be better tailored to the needs of British industry. Of course, trade remedies are only one part of the United Kingdom’s unilateral toolkit.
