MISA welcomes dtic’s willingness to engage on proposed vehicle import tariffs

Trade union the Motor Industry Staff Association (MISA) says the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (dtic) has agreed to meet with it on critical automotive and trade policy matters that directly affect thousands of motor retail workers across the country. MISA earlier his month expressed concerns about the dtic’s proposals to potentially raise import tariffs on Chinese and Indian vehicles coming into the country, since these vehicles sales have greatly supported the motor retail sector and the livelihoods of workers at dealerships.
