PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Trade Remedies Authority (4 December 2017)

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, if his Department will bring forward draft (a) legislative proposals or (b) policy papers on how the Trade Remedies Authority will construct normal value in dumping investigations in cases where domestic prices are inappropriate before further consideration by the House of the Taxation (Cross-border Trade) Bill.

Asked by:
Gareth Snell (Labour)

Work is currently underway to develop the appropriate methodology for constructing normal value in dumping investigations in cases where domestic prices are inappropriate. Work is also underway examining the options for calculating injury.

We expect this process to take some months, but we will discuss our thinking with interested parties as it develops and will continue to engage with a range of stakeholders on the detail of trade remedies policy as we have done since the summer.
