[Title] => DA seeks reversal of SC rule on safeguard measures
[Summary] => The Department of Agriculture (DA) is exhausting all legal remedies in contesting a Supreme Court (SC) ruling stripping the executive branch of its authority to curb the entry of cheaper imported agricultural products.
Agriculture Undersecretary Segfredo Serrano said the DA is seeking the assistance of the Office of the Solicitor General in seeking a reconsideration on a recent SC decision voiding the Safeguards Measures Act (SMA) which allows department heads to impose additional duties on certain imported commodities that are priced lower than local produce.

[Summary] => The Arroyo government will not hesitate to invoke the "Big Three" laws against import surges once jobs, revenue and companies are threatened, Michael Defensor, campaign spokesman of the Arroyo government, said recently.
Defensor was referring to Republic Act 8800, the Safeguards Measures Act, which empowers the secretaries of agriculture and trade to impose higher tariffs or quota restrictions on imports that cause "serious injuries" on local industries and farmers.
