The move follows an investigation into unfairly priced imports that threaten domestic manufacturers during their transition from traditional blast furnaces to Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF). This proposal aligns with the UK's broader strategy to protect its local supply chain against global market imbalances. The new duty rate proposed fall around 5.98% to 24.28%
