On 22 December 2000 the European Union announced its decision to request formal WTO consultations with the US over the so-called 'Byrd amendment". US legislation providing for the proceeds from anti-dumping cases to be paid to the US companies responsible for bringing the cases in the first case. The request for consultations was jointly submitted with eight other WTO partners Australia, Brazil, Chile, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, and Thailand. This joint action was a clear indication of the important systemic concerns that the legislation raises among WTO members. |
