Chapter 4 Trade Remedies

HTML

Details

Trade remedies provide further protections for domestic industry against unfair trading practices or unforeseen surges in imports of goods.

This chapter includes a bilateral safeguard mechanism. This will allow the UK or India to temporarily increase tariffs or suspend tariff concessions if the tariff liberalisation agreed in the FTA leads to a surge of imports that causes or threatens to cause serious injury to domestic industry.

Alongside this are provisions on the proportionate and transparent application of trade remedy measures.

The chapter affirms both countries’ rights and obligations under the WTO, allowing members to apply trade remedies proportionately and transparently.
