Answer

MBIE received the application for a safeguard investigation into aluminium extrusions on 21 January 2026. Following MBIE’s assessment of the application, I was provided with advice on 14 May recommending a safeguard investigation be initiated. I initiated the investigation on 28 May. This is 128 calendar days. You can find documents relating to trade remedy investigations on the MBIE website.
