Classification of goods turned on technical composition and SAFTA eligibility; the tribunal applied precedent to hold that low nickel content (including around 1%) does not itself exclude SAFTA benefit and that the personal technical knowledge attributed to the Customs House Agent (CHA) was insufficient to establish culpability.
