Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, with reference to Section 5.31 of the Autumn Budget 2022, CP 751, published on 17 November 2022, whether the proposed two-year suspension of certain tariffs will include the suspension or removal of any trade remedies applied to affected goods.

The tariff suspensions announced in the Autumn Budget will not include the suspension or removal of any existing trade remedies. Where suspensions coincide with an anti-dumping duty, that trade remedy will remain in force.
