THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/477 ¹ of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2015, on measures that the Union may take in relation to the combined effect of anti-dumping or anti-subsidy measures with safeguard measures

Whereas:

(1) By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/159 ², the Commission imposed a safeguard measure with respect to certain steel products for a period of three years. Those measures take the form of tariff-rate quotas applicable for specified periods, by which an above-quota tariff duty of 25 % is payable when imports exceed a specified threshold corresponding to the average level of imports in the years 2015 to 2017. By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1029 ³, the Commission extended the application of the safeguard for three years, until 30 June 2024.

(2) By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1382 ⁴, the Commission put in place a mechanism preventing the concurrent application of this above-quota tariff duty with anti-dumping and/or countervailing measures also applicable to some of the steel products.

(3) For this purpose, the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1382 listed all anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures on products also subject to the safeguard measure at the time, and specified the anti-dumping and/or anti-subsidy duty that should apply once the above-quota tariff becomes applicable.

(4) On 6 July 2021, by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1100 ⁵, the Commission imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain hot-rolled flat products of iron, non-alloy or other alloy steel originating in Turkey.

(5) The mechanism preventing the concurrent application of measures should apply to these products since they are also subject to the safeguard measure. The annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1382 should therefore be amended in order to include Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1100.

(6) In order to ensure transparency for the economic operators, in the future, each Regulation imposing anti-dumping and/or anti-subsidy concerning steel products also subject to the safeguard measure will include specific provisions preventing their concurrent application with the above-quota safeguard tariff duty.

(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Trade Defence Instruments Committee,
