Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, with reference to the expiry review of Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 917/2011, what his Department's policy is on maintaining anti-dumping duties on ceramic floor and wall tiles imported from China.
The European Commission’s review of the anti-dumping measures on imports of ceramic tiles is ongoing and yet to make its final proposals.
Currently, a number of trade remedy measures are being applied by the EU, some of which affect UK industry. The Government is looking into the detail of UK trade remedies policy as a whole as we leave the EU and will bring forth proposals shortly. The Government is aiming to maintain continuity for businesses as we exit from the EU.
