Safeguard measure duration is limited by purpose-based necessity and fixed sunset periods under the trade rules. The safeguard measure applied under rule 12 is limited to the period necessary to prevent or remedy serious injury and to facilitate positive adjustment. It ceases after two years from the date of imposition unless revoked earlier, subject to a possible one-year extension if the Central Government considers continued imposition necessary because the domestic industry has adjusted or is adjusting. A further sunset provision states that the safeguard measure ceases to have effect on the expiry of three years from the date of imposition unless revoked earlier.
