There is currently no antidumping investigation regarding solar panels being conducted by the Anti-Dumping Commission. The commission does not publicise the receipt of applications, once again in line with our World Trade Organization obligations. If and when an application is accepted, the commission will publish the decision to enable investigation. The International Trade Remedies Advisory Service is available for small to medium enterprises that need assistance in preparing antidumping applications.

The commission also assists potential SME applicants in understanding and accessing the antidumping system. The Department of Industry is currently conducting an evaluation of the advisory service to ascertain the effectiveness and efficiency of that service. The department is due to report its findings from the evaluation to the Minister for Industry in the near future. (Time expired)
