COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1001/2008

of 13 October 2008

imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain tube and pipe fittings, of iron or steel, originating in the Republic of Korea and Malaysia following an expiry review pursuant to Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 384/96

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/96 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1) (the basic Regulation), and in particular Articles 9 and 11(2) thereof,

After consulting the Advisory Committee,

Whereas:

  • A. 
    PROCEDURE
  • 1. 
    Measures in force
 

(1)

In August 2002, definitive anti-dumping measures on imports of certain tube and pipe fittings (‘TPFs’ or the ‘product concerned’) originating, inter alia, in the Republic of Korea and Malaysia (the ‘countries concerned’) were imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No 1514/2002 (2) (the ‘original investigation’). The anti-dumping duties in force for Malaysia are: 59,2 % for Anggerik Laksana Sdn Bhd and 75 % for all other companies; for the Republic of Korea the duty is 44 % for all companies.

 

(2)

Outside the scope of this proceeding, anti-dumping measures are currently in force imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No 964/2003 (3) on exports from the People’s Republic of China (58,6 %) and Thailand (58,9 %), with the exception of two companies in Thailand, and those consigned from Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Taiwan or not. The measures for the product concerned originating in China were extended to imports of the same product consigned from Indonesia by Council Regulation (EC) No 2052/2004 (4), Sri Lanka by Council Regulation (EC) No 2053/2004 (5) and the Philippines by Council Regulation (EC) No 655/2006 (6), whether declared as originating in the Philippines, Indonesia, Sri Lanka or not.

    Request for a review
 

(3)

Following the publication of a notice of impending expiry (7) of the anti-dumping measures in force on imports of TPFs originating in the Republic of Korea and Malaysia, the Commission received a request to review these measures pursuant to Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation.

 

(4)

The request was lodged on 23 May 2007 by the Defence Committee of the Steel Butt-Welding Fittings Industry of the European Union (the applicant) on behalf of producers representing a major proportion, in this case more than 50 %, of the total Community production of certain tube and pipe fittings.

 

(5)

The request was based on the grounds that the expiry of the measures would be likely to result in a continuation or recurrence of dumping and injury to the Community industry.

 

(6)

Having determined, after consultation of the Advisory Committee, that sufficient evidence existed for the initiation of a review, the Commission initiated an expiry review (8) pursuant to Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation.

  • 3. 
    Investigation
 

(7)

The Commission officially advised the applicant Community producers, the other Community producers, the exporting producers in the countries concerned, the importers/traders, users and their associations known to be concerned, as well as the representatives of the governments of both exporting countries, of the initiation of the review.

 

(8)

The Commission sent questionnaires to all these parties and to those who made themselves known within the time limit set out in the notice of initiation.

 

(9)

The Commission also gave interested parties the opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing within the...
