Abstract:In January 2009 South Africa's International Trade Administration Commission published draft amendments to the Countervailing (Anti-Subsidy) Regulations. After a brief overview of countervailing in South Africa, the author considers the major amendments proposed in the Commission's publication and evaluates them against the World Trade Organization's Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures to determine whether the amendments will improve consistency with South Africa's international obligations and increase transparency and fairness in countervailing investigations. He finds that viewed holistically, the amendments will detract from the current Countervailing Regulations. Notes, ref., sum. [Journal abstract, edited]
