<p>The UK trade remedies system will include an economic interest test to ensure that
measures are not applied where they will have a disproportionate impact on the wider
UK economy.</p><p>This is similar to the Union interest test currently operated by
the EU- for example, both tests will be considered at the provisional and final stages
of an investigation, and will operate on a starting presumption in favour of anti-dumping
and anti-subsidy measures.</p><p>But the economic interest test will be based on clear
criteria set out in primary legislation. This will provide certainty and clarity for
UK businesses.</p><p> </p>
