Global Safeguards
Global safeguards remedy serious injury caused or threatened to New Zealand industries by sudden and unforeseen increases in imports. Global safeguard investigations and measures must continue to be consistent with the WTO Safeguards Agreement and may be taken by New Zealand against imports from all countries, except Australia and Singapore . The CEP provides that a global safeguard measure may exclude imports originating from Thailand "if such imports are not a cause of serious injury or threat thereof".
