FED:China dumping cheap goods in Aust, unions

Unions are calling for federal government action to stop countries like China from
dumping cheap goods in Australia.

They're pushing for a strict rule of law approach to illegal trade practices .. in
a discussion paper called Don't Dump on Australia.

It singles out the Chinese government as one that's prepared to subsidise its own manufacturers
and to see their output dumped here .. below cost.

Independent Senator NICK XENOPHON's attended union-hosted talks on the topic in Sydney
today .... he says dumping duties should be applied against foreign companies.
