EU Trade Commissioner Peter Mandelson was proposing on 17 May 2005 to the European Commission that it launch formal consultations with China for two of the nine categories of textile imports from China currently under investigation: T-shirts and flax yarn. In view of the seriousness of market disruption in these categories, he asked for formal consultations to begin immediately. The consultations were to involve urgent discussions between China and the EU on how best to limit growth in Chinese exports in these categories. |
