Summary
Chapter 7 explains rules on the duration of safeguard measures and the system of incentives for the establishment of safeguards with relatively short duration. Chapter 7 also explains the process of review for extension of safeguards and the requirements to that effect. It further explains the gradual liberalization process that is envisaged during the period of application of a safeguard measure and the concept of a mid-term review. Chapter 7 also explains the complex rules foreseen to avoid the reintroduction of safeguard measures that have been applied in the past.
