No 289 House of Representatives Supplementary Order Paper Tuesday, 23 May 2017 Trade (Anti-dumping and Countervailing Duties) Amendment Bill Proposed amendments for the consideration of the Committee of the whole House Key: • • this is inserted text this is deleted text Note: This Supplementary Order Paper shows amendments to the Bill that are being proposed by the Minister for the purposes of consideration in Committee of the whole House.
This document does— • • NOT have official status in terms of unamended text NOT have the status of an as-reported version of the Bill.
143—1/SOP No 289 1 Proposed amendments to Trade (Anti-dumping and Countervailing Duties) Amendment Bill SOP No 289 Explanatory note This Supplementary Order Paper sets out proposed amendments to the Trade (Anti- dumping and Countervailing Duties) Amendment Bill (the Bill), which amends the Act that was previously called the Dumping and Countervailing Duties Act 1988 (the principal Act).
The proposed amendments include the following: • • • amendments to extend the suspension of anti-dumping duties on residential building material: minor amendments previously proposed in the departmental report at the select committee stage (and an amendment to the commencement clause): technical and drafting amendments and corrections.
Extending suspension of anti-dumping duties on residential building material The amendments to clause 16 extend the period during which anti-dumping duties (but not countervailing duties) are suspended from being imposed on residential building material (the suspension period).

The original suspension period, which started in June 2014, is due to end on the close of 31 May 2017.

The amendments extend the suspension period until the close of 30 June 2019 (an extension of just over 2 years).
This will align the end of the suspension period with the date of the scheduled review of the tariffs concession scheme for residential building material.

The principal Act does not currently allow for consideration of whether an anti-dump- ing duty or a countervailing duty is in the public interest or for consideration of sig- nificant events that affect an industry or the public, such as earthquakes or other nat- ural disasters.
The Bill will, if enacted, introduce a public interest test into the Act so that the wider public interest would be considered as part of the process of deciding whether to impose anti-dumping or countervailing duties.

However, the provisions of the Bill that introduce the public interest test are not expected to come into force be- fore the suspension period is due to end.
Anti-dumping duties were originally suspended on imported residential building ma- terial to increase competition, lift sector productivity, and reduce the cost of residen- tial construction.

Currently, anti-dumping duties are imposed on standard plasterboard from Thailand, but are suspended until the end of the suspension period.
The amend- ments extend the suspension period for a further 2 years to support increased residen- tial construction in New Zealand by continuing to remove that barrier to competition and productivity in the construction sector.
The suspension is not intended to affect the ability of— • • • a New Zealand producer or an interested party to apply to the Secretary to ini- tiate an investigation under section 10 of the principal Act; or a Government of a third country to advise the Secretary of dumping or subsidi- sation under section 18 of the principal Act; or the Secretary to initiate and carry out an investigation, a reassessment, or a re- view; or 143—1/SOP No 289 3 SOP No 289 Trade (Anti-dumping and Countervailing Duties) Amendment Bill Proposed amendments to • the Minister to make a determination, reassess the rate of an anti-dumping duty, or terminate an anti-dumping duty following a review.
However, the measures listed above (with the exception of a termination of an anti- dumping duty by the Minister) would not be implemented until the end of the exten- ded suspension period.

The suspension is a short-term measure to help lower the cost of residential construc- tion during the extended suspension period.
Other amendments The amendments to clause 2 change the commencement date to the date immediately after the expiry of the 6-month period that starts on the date on which the Bill re- ceives the Royal assent.

However, the provisions that extend the suspension of anti- dumping duties on residential building material will commence the day after the date on which the Bill receives the Royal assent.
The amendment to new section 1A in clause 6 clarifies the purpose of the principal Act by inserting terminology that better aligns with the WTO Agreement.

The amendment to new section 10F(3)(e) in clause 13 provides that the effect of a duty on the financial performance of the domestic industry must be considered as part of the public interest test.

This section currently refers to the narrower concept of the financial viability of the domestic industry.
The amendments to clause 22 have the effect that the third country provisions in sec- tion 18 of the principal Act apply only to dumping and do not apply to subsidisation.

The amendments to clause 3 of Schedule 1 simplify the transitional provisions by pro- viding that a stand-alone public interest test under that clause can be started only in respect of a duty imposed on or after commencement.

Subsection (2) does not require the chief executive to provide information that would not be available to an interested party under section 3F.
The chief executive must report the findings of investigation step 1 to the Min- ister.
10D Step 1: determination (1) Within 180 days after the start of investigation step 1 (but not less than 30 days after the written advice is given by the chief executive under section 10C(2)), the Minister must determine whether, in relation to the imported goods or goods intended to be imported into New Zealand,— (a) the goods are being dumped or subsidised; and (b) material injury to an industry has been or is being caused or is threat- ened, or the establishment of an industry has been or is being materially retarded, because of the dumping or subsidisation.

Imposing the duty is in the public interest unless the cost to downstream indus- tries and consumers of imposing the duty is likely to materially outweigh the benefit to the domestic industry of imposing the duty.
In investigating whether imposing the duty is in the public interest, the matters the chief executive must investigate include the following: (a) the effect of the duty on the prices of the dumped or subsidised goods: 143—1/SOP No 289 13 Part 1 cl 13 Trade (Anti-dumping and Countervailing Duties) Amendment Bill Proposed amendments to (b) (c) (d) (e) the effect of the duty on the prices of like goods produced in New Zea- land: the effect of the duty on the choice or availability of like goods: the effect of the duty on product and service quality: the effect of the duty on the financial viability performance of the do- mestic industry: (f) the effect of the duty on employment levels: (g) whether there is an alternative supply (domestically or internationally) of like goods available: (h) any factor that the chief executive considers essential to ensure the exis- tence of competition in the market.
(4) In this section,— consumers means— (a) New Zealand consumers of— (i) (ii) (iii) the dumped or subsidised goods; or like goods; or the other goods referred to in paragraph (a) of the definition of downstream industries; and (b) if the Minister considers it appropriate for the purposes of this section, any other relevant New Zealand consumers domestic industry means the industry referred to in section 10D(1)(b) downstream industries means— (a) (b) each immediate downstream New Zealand industry that uses the dumped or subsidised goods, or like goods, as an input in the production of other goods; and if the Minister considers it appropriate for the purposes of this section, any other relevant downstream New Zealand industry.
10G Step 2: procedure (1) (2) (3) 14 The chief executive must, within 60 days after starting investigation step 2, give the notified parties written advice of the preliminary findings that are like- ly to form the basis for a determination to be made by the Minister under sec- tion 10H(1).
