Summary
Introduced with the Customs Tariff (Anti-Dumping) Amendment Bill (No. 1) 2012, the bill amends the
Customs Act 1901
to: clarify that the Chief Executive Officer of the Customs and Border Protection Service and the minister have the power to take all facts available into account when determining whether a countervailable subsidy has been received, the amount of a countervailing subsidy, and when certain parties fail to provide information within a reasonable period; enable the level of duties of an anti-dumping measure to be recalculated during a continuation inquiry; and remove the need to include profit when calculating the normal value of a good in its country of origin.
