On 24 July 2018, the government published the provisional findings of the trade remedies call for evidence into which existing EU measures will be transitioned. The provisional findings from business indicate the measures on aluminium foil will be terminated when the UK leaves the EU. No UK producer responded to the call for evidence.

Since then, interested parties were invited to provide further information which may affect these findings. The government is currently considering additional information from industry, and aims to publish a final report before the end of 2018.
