What is a typical remedy that might be recommended after injury and causation findings?

• A. Increase consumer protections
• B. Market expansion programs
• C. Elimination of all tariffs
• D. Recommending measures such as duties or other trade remedies to address injury

Answer: (D)

When injury and causation have been found in a tariff investigation, the remedy is to address the competitive imbalance created by imports. The typical relief is to implement trade remedies that directly offset the harm to the domestic industry, such as duties (tariffs) or other measures like antidumping duties, countervailing duties, or safeguards. These remedies are designed to restore fair competition by making imports less price-advantageous or temporarily restricting them, rather than broad policy changes. The other options don’t target the specific injury found in the investigation: broad consumer protections, generic market expansion programs, or eliminating tariffs all miss the targeted corrective purpose of the remedy.
