Above Body

 04 May 2018   

The Anti-Dumping and Subsidies Commission (ADSC) is inviting manufacturers, producers and other stakeholders to its training seminars to be held in May.

The seminars are a continuation of the series which started in April and will be held May 17 and 30, 2018 at the Courtleigh Hotel and Suites, Knutsford Boulevard.

The aim of the training seminars is to assist industry players to build their capacity to defend and expand their markets locally and overseas, through the use of trade remedies.

These remedies can help to protect local manufacturers and producers in Jamaica from the ravages of unfair trade practices.

The trade remedies which are available for use by industries when they are experiencing injury from imports include: antidumping action to remedy dumping, countervailing duty measures to remedy certain instances of subsidization and safeguard action to remedy the effects of significant increases in imports.

The ADSC, which falls under the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries, has the mandate to investigate complaints from domestic producers of dumping, subsidization and import surges that have caused, are causing or threaten to cause injury to them.

The Commission also leads in educating the business community on how to use the trade remedies and in increasing the awareness of the public about anti-dumping measures.
