🇬🇧 English

The law involves the findings and determinations made by the United States International Trade Commission regarding silicon metal imports from Angola, Laos, and Thailand. The Commission determined that the U.S. industry is materially injured by imports from Laos that are sold at less than fair value and subsidized by the government. Additionally, it found that imports from Angola threaten material injury, while imports from Thailand are deemed negligible and a countervailing duty investigation concerning Thailand will be terminated.
