BRC COMMENT ON TODAY'S CHINA-EU TRADE MEETING ON PROPOSED ANTI DUMPING DUTIES

11 January 2006

Following today's meeting with China's Vice Minister for Trade, Gao Hucheng, BRC Director General, Kevin Hawkins, commented:

"Our resolve to continue fighting the consumers' case was stiffened by today's very positive meeting with the Chinese Trade Negotiator, Minister Gao.

"We welcome the priority that Beijing is attaching to preventing any anti-competitive measures the EU is considering imposing on popular shoe imports. We also agree that should duties be imposed by the EU, this could set Europe on a dangerous course of action with one of our most important trading partners. We will continue to watch the situation very carefully."
