Bilateral safeguard measures require injury assessment, findings on import surges, and review of continued necessity. The Director General must investigate whether increased imports of an originating good, caused by reduction or elimination of customs duty under the Trade Agreement, have caused or threaten serious injury to domestic industry. The investigation must evaluate objective and quantifiable factors such as import volume, market share, sales, production, productivity, capacity utilisation, profits, losses and employment, and then submit findings to the Central Government with recommendations on bilateral safeguard measures, their duration, and continuation.
