Written Question
Import Duties: USA
Thursday 28th June 2018

Asked by: Lord Bellingham (Conservative - Life peer)

Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential effectiveness of EU counter-measures to US steel and aluminium tariffs.

Answered by Liam Fox

While we sympathise with US concerns regarding transparency and the overproduction of steel, we continue to argue that tariffs applied under section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act are not an appropriate solution for dealing with these issues. We will continue to seek a constructive, permanent resolution with the United States to avoid further escalation, which would only harm businesses, jobs and consumers in the United Kingdom and the United States.
