Ministers agreed that the companies had either broken these promises or failed to supply information proving they had done so. Duties will henceforth be levied on EU imports from Nordic Group, Norexport, Nor-Fa Fish, Norfra Eksport, Kr Klieven & Co, Mesan Holding, Johan J. Helland, Sangoltgruppa, Oskar Einar Rydbeck and Northern Seafood, which handles Nordic Group salmon.
Countervailing duties are 3.8% and anti-dumping €0.32 (US$0.31) per net kilogram.
