This is the original version (as it was originally made).

Suspension of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

85.—(1) The TRA may make a recommendation to the Secretary of State (a “suspension recommendation”) that the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount be suspended for a specified period (the “period of suspension”) in relation to some or all of the goods specified in a public notice made by the Secretary of State under section 13 of the Act.

(2) The TRA may make a suspension recommendation where—

(a)paragraph (3) applies;

(b)it is satisfied that a suspension is appropriate; and

(c)the applicant UK industry has been given the opportunity to comment on the suspension proposed in the application for suspension (see regulation 86).

(3) This paragraph applies where the TRA, whether or not as a consequence of considering an application in accordance with regulation 86 (application for suspension), considers that the circumstances in paragraph (4) exist.

(4) Those circumstances are that—

(a)market conditions have changed temporarily; and

(b)as a consequence of the change in market conditions, the injury caused to a UK industry is unlikely to recur if the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount were to be suspended.

(5) In considering whether to make a suspension recommendation, the TRA may take such steps as it considers appropriate.

(6) Where the TRA rejects an application for suspension, the TRA must notify the applicant.

(7) Where the TRA considers that it is not appropriate to make a suspension recommendation, it must—

(a)publish a notice of the reasons for its determination; and

(b)notify the Secretary of State and interested parties.

(8) Where the TRA considers that it is appropriate to make a suspension recommendation, the recommendation must include—

(a)the reasons for its determination;

(b)the recommended period of suspension, which must begin on the day after the date of publication of the public notice under section 13 of the Act giving effect to the recommendation; and

(c)any other information it considers relevant.

(9) If the TRA makes a suspension recommendation, the Secretary of State must decide whether to accept or reject it.

(10) Where the Secretary of State accepts the suspension recommendation, the notice published by the Secretary of State under paragraph 26(6)(a) of Schedule 4 to the Act must contain the information set out in paragraph 1 of Schedule 5.

(11) The Secretary of State may only reject a suspension recommendation where the Secretary of State considers that it is not in the public interest to accept it.

(12) Where the Secretary of State rejects a suspension recommendation, the Secretary of State must—

(a)publish a notice containing the information set out in paragraph 1 of Schedule 5;

(b)notify interested parties; and

(c)lay a statement before the House of Commons setting out the reasons for rejecting the recommendation.

(13) Where an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount is suspended under this Part, the period of suspension counts towards the specified period of the anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount as stated in the relevant public notice.
