Proposed safeguard measures due to sudden increase in imports of lubricating oils
The National Trade Remedies Authority (ANMCC) has not yet proposed any measure to follow up on the finding of serious injury or threat thereof. It is currently studying the recommendations to be made regarding the appropriate measures to be notified subsequently. Unforeseen Developments The sudden, recent, significant and sharp increase in imports of lubricant oils that are the subject of the investigation is due to unforeseen developments, in particular the energy transition of developed countries, including some countries or economic unions that have adopted energy transition policies and strategies since 2015. The aim of this transition is to reduce environmental pollution and promote the use of renewable energy sources, encouraging the use of biodegradable oils known as biolubricants. Consequently, developing countries have become the main destinations for mineral oil lubricants on account of the absence of energy transition policies or delays in their adoption. |

The provisional safeguard measure.
The massive increase in paint imports is the result of unforeseen developments reflected in the following series of factors: On the one hand, the implementation of post-COVID-19 economic recovery policies has led to the very rapid resumption of exports from the main paint-exporting countries. On the other hand, there is a new trend towards using powder paints in developed countries owing to the benefits they offer in terms of durability, aesthetics, design and the environment. This change has boosted exports of liquid paints to African countries, including Madagascar. Moreover, bans on lead paint, which have been implemented in a number of countries owing to its toxicity, have led systematically to the export of lead paint to countries where it is not yet banned. |
