Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, with reference to the initial findings of the Trade Remedies Authority (TRA) relating to the import of e-bikes, whether he plans to accept the TRA's recommendations on that matter; and what his planned timetable is for making a decision on potential UK trade defence measures against e-bikes from China.

On 22 May 2023 the Trade Remedies Authority initiated transition reviews of the existing anti-dumping and anti-subsidy trade remedy measures on electric bicycles originating from China.

As both reviews remain ongoing, I cannot comment further. The Trade Remedies Authority will publish relevant information on the public file as the review progresses.
