Open petition: Urgently review & adjust steel import quota & tariff changes - effective 01/07

Created by Giles Throup
Closes on

Either, the timeline for these changes needs extending
The 60% quota reduction needs reducing
The 50% tariff applied after quarterly quota exhaustion needs significant reduction
The impacted commodity codes needs review & reduction
Or a combination of some/all of the above

UK steel manufacture & infrastructure, is not immediately capable of satisfying the additional demand which the quota & tariff changes are intended to effect
Current changes will have a profound impact on all UK industry, where they have any exposure to the commodity codes affected
Thousands of UK jobs directly jeopardised by current legislation
