Safeguard investigation into solar cell imports initiated after prima facie finding of serious injury to domestic industry. Initiation of a safeguard investigation into imports of photovoltaic 'Solar Cells whether or not assembled in modules or panels' is ordered after applicants representing a major proportion of domestic production submitted data for 2014 15 to 2017 18 (annualised). Record evidence shows significant increases in imports alongside declining domestic market share, under utilised capacity, reduced employment (excluding one entrant), loss-making domestic sales and rising inventories. On a prima facie basis the authority finds increased imports have caused or threaten to cause serious injury and has initiated a formal investigation, inviting submissions within thirty days and offering a public non confidential file.
