REPORT (2002) OF THE COMMITTEE ON
ANTI-DUMPING PRACTICES
I. ORGANIZATION OF THE WORK OF THE COMMITTEE
1. The Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and
Trade 1994 (hereinafter "the Agreement") entered into force on 1 January 1995.  All Members of theWTO are ipso facto  members of the Committee on Anti-Dumping Practices established under the
Agreement.
2. Observer governments in the General Council of the WTO have Observer status in the
Committee. The International Monetary Fund, World Bank and UNCTAD have regular Observer
status in the Committee.  Pursuant to a deci sion of the Committee in October 1998, the OECD is
invited to attend meetings on an  ad hoc  basis, and has full access to documents relevant to the
Committee's work, subject to objection by a Member in  particular cases.  Also pursuant to a decision
of the Committee in October 1998, the ACP Group is invited to attend meetings on an ad hoc basis
pending the outcome of horizontal consultations with respect to the ACP Group's requests for
Observership in various WTO bodies. Requests for Observer status from the Common Market forEastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the Gulf Organization for Industrial Consulting are the
subject of on-going consultations among Members.
3. The focus of this report is on the period since the Committee's last annual report (G/L/495),
that is, 27 October 2001 – 25 October 2002 (hereinafter "the review period").  During the review
period, the Committee held three meetings, a special meeting on 7 December 2001 (G/ADP/M/20)
and two regular meetings on 25 April 2002 an d 24-25 October 2002 (G/ ADP/M/21 and G/ADP/M/22,
respectively).
4. As of the beginning of the review period, Ms Ana Novik (Chile), the elected Vice
Chairperson, acted as Chairperson of the Committee in accordance with Rule 14 of the Committee's
Rules of Procedure (G/ADP/4) following the resigna tion of the elected Chairperson.  At its regular
meeting in April 2002, the Committee elected Mr. Cristian Espinosa Cañizares (Ecuador) as
Chairman and Ms Caroline Trautw eiler (Switzerland) as Vice Chairperson.  Pursuant to the
Committee's Rules of Procedure, they took office at the end of that meeting.
II. NOTIFICATION AND EXAMINATION OF ANTI-DUMPING LAWS AND/OR
REGULATIONS OF MEMBERS
5. Article 18.5 of the Agreement provides that "Each Member shall inform the Committee of
any changes in its laws and regulations relevant to  this Agreement and in the administration of such
laws and regulations".  Pursuant to a decision of the Committee in February 1995, all Members
having new or existing legislation and/or regulations which apply in whole or in part to anti-dumping
duty investigations or reviews covered by the Agreement are requested to notify the full and
integrated text of such legislation and/or regulations to the Committee.  Changes in a Member's
legislation and/or regulations are to be notified to the Committee as well.  Pursuant to that samedecision of the Committee, if a Member has no such legislation or regulations, the Member is toG/L/581
Page 2
inform the Committee of this fact.  The Committee also decided that Observer governments should
comply with these notification obligations.
6. As of 25 October 2002, 102 Members had notified the Committee regarding their domestic
anti-dumping legislation.1  Of these 102 Members, 31 had notified the Committee that they had no
anti-dumping legislation.  Members' communications in this regard can be found in document seriesG/ADP/N/1/... .  25 Members had not, as yet, made any notification of anti-dumping legislation and/or
regulations.  Annex A sets out the status of notifications concerning legislation under Article 18.5 of
the Agreement, and sets out the reference symbol of the document(s) containing each Member's
current notification in this regard.  The Chair expressed continuing concern over the failure of some
Members to submit the required notification concerning legislation, and added that for many of those
Members, it was likely that a single "Nil" notification would suffice. Members who had not yet done
so were urged to make this notification promptly.
7. During the review period, the Committee reviewed new notifications regarding anti-dumping
laws and/or regulations submitted by the following Members:  Antigua & Barbuda, Argentina, Brazil,
China, El Salvador, Georgia, Grenada, India, Japan, Lithuania, Moldova, Myanmar, Pakistan, Peru,
Philippines, Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu, Turkey, and
Uruguay.  Written questions and answers regarding these reviews may be found in documents of theG/ADP/Q1/... series.  Statements of Members in this context are reflected in the minutes of the
meetings.
8. In addition to review of new notifications, during the review period the Committee undertook
further review of the notification of legislation of Peru already considered at a previous meeting.
Written questions and answers concerning the notification of Peru were considered at the Committee'smeeting in April 2002.  Those questions and answ ers may also be found in documents of the
G/ADP/Q1/... series.
III. SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS ON ANTI-DUMPING ACTIONS TAKEN BY MEMBERS
9. Semi-annual reports for the period 1 July-31 December 2001 .  As of 25 October 2002,
semi-annual reports of actions taken during this period had been submitted by 27 Members.  39Members had notified the Committee that they had not taken any anti-dumping actions during this
period.  The remaining Members required to do so had not submitted a notification in this regard.  The
semi-annual reports were circulated in document series G/ADP/N/85/... .  At the Committee's regular
meeting in April, the Chairperson reported that it  appeared that most Members taking actions had
submitted semi-annual reports in a timely fashion.  Members who had not submitted reports,
including Nil returns were strongly urged to submit these reports.  The Chairperson also urged
Members to follow the guidelines for reports adopted by the Committee and set out in documentG/ADP/1.  The status of semi-annual reports is set out in Annex B.
10. Semi-annual reports for the period 1 January-30 June 2002 .  As of 25 October 2002,
semi-annual reports of actions taken during this period had been submitted by 30 Members.  26
Members had notified the Committee that they had not taken any anti-dumping actions during this
period.  The remaining Members required to do so had not submitted a notification in this regard. Thesemi-annual reports were circulated in document series G/ADP/N/92/... .  At the Committee's regular
meeting in October, the Chairman expressed concern that although most of the Members taking
actions had submitted their semi-annual reports, and a large proportion of them were submitted in a
timely fashion, there continued to be problems with  reporting in accordance with the guidelines
adopted by the Committee and set out in document G/ADP/1.  Members who had not submitted theirsemi-annual reports were urged to do so.  The Chairman reminded Members that the Secretariat was
                                                     
1In this report, the EC is counted as one Member.G/L/581
Page 3
available to assist with the reporting format, and urged Members to bring problems with each others'
reports to the Committee.  He also suggested that Members might consider whether it was necessary
or appropriate to undertake a discussion of the format for the semi-annual reports.  The status of semi-
annual reports is set out in Annex B.
11. A Table summarizing anti-dumping actions taken by Members and reported in their semi-
annual reports during the period 1 July 2001 -30 June 2002 is reproduced in Annex C to this report.
IV. REPORTS ON ALL PRELIMINARY OR FINAL ANTI-DUMPING ACTIONS
12. Pursuant to Article 16.4 of the Agreement, Members are to report without delay to the
Committee all preliminary and final anti-dumping actions taken.  Reports of preliminary and final
anti-dumping actions during the period under consideration were received from Argentina, Australia,
Canada, China, Egypt, the European Communities, India, Jamaica, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand,
Pakistan, Peru, South Africa, Turkey, the United States, and Venezuela, as indicated in documentsG/ADP/N/83, G/ADP/N/84, G/ ADP/N/86, G/ADP/N/87, G/ADP/N /88, G/ADP/N/89, G/ADP/N/90,
G/ADP/N/91, G/ADP/N/93, G/ADP/N/94, G/ADP/N/95 and G/ADP/N/96.  The Committee reviewed
the notifications of preliminary and final actions at its regular meetings in April and October 2002.  At
the Committee's meetings in April and October 2002, the Chairperson noted that there continues to be a
lack of full compliance in this area and highlighted the importance of this notification in theCommittee's role in monitoring and discussing actions taken by Members.
V. TRANSITIONAL REVIEW OF CHINA
13. During the October 2002 meeting, the Committee undertook the review, as appropriate to its
mandate, of the implementation by China of the WTO Agreement and of the related provisions of its
Protocol of Accession, as provided for in Paragra ph 18 of the Protocol of Accession of the Peoples'
Republic of China to the WTO.  In addition to a general statement, China responded orally at the
meeting to a number of specific questions that had been previously submitted in writing, and to
follow-up questions posed at the meeting, concerning its notification of anti-dumping legislation.  The
statements of Members are reflected in the minutes of that meeting.  The Committee agreed that its
report to the Council for Trade in Goods would be in the form of a brief factual report, with references
to the documents concerned, and attaching the portion of the minutes of the meeting which relate to
the transition review, prepared by the Chairman on his own responsibility.
VI. IMPLEMENTATION-RELATED MATTERS
14. At the Fourth Ministerial Conference, in their Decision on Implementation-Related Issues and
Concerns, Ministers agreed that investigating au thorities shall examine with special care any
application for the initiation of an anti-dumping investigation where an investigation of the same
product from the same Member resulted in a negative fi nding within the 365 days prior to the filing of
the application and that, unless this pre-initiation examination indicates that circumstances have
changed, the investigation shall not proceed (WT/MIN(01)/17, para. 7.1).  Ministers also referred
three implementation-related issues to the Committee or its Working Group on Implementation for
consideration and recommendations, to be completed within 12 months.
15. The Working Group on Implementation was directed to (1) examine modalities for the
application of Article 15 of the Agreement and draw up recommendations on how to operationalize it,
and (2) to draw up recommendations concerning the tim e-frame to be used in determining a negligible
volume of imports under Article 5.8 of th e Agreement (WT/MIN(01)/17, paras. 7.2-7.3).G/L/581
Page 4
16. The Committee was directed to draw up guidelin es for the improvement of the annual reviews
under Article 18.6 of the Agreement (WT/MIN(01)/17, para. 7.4).
17. At its special meeting in December 2001, the Committee decided that these three issues
would be taken up in informal sessions of the Committee and the Working Group, on the basis of
written submissions, with formal meetings held should the need arise.  The Committee and theWorking Group met in informal session to discuss the issues in March, April, June, September, and
October. Members submitted written proposals, written questions and comments on proposals, and
written answers to questions, on each of the three topics referred to the Committee and the Working
Group, which have been discussed in the informal sessions held during the review period.  The
following documents had been circulated as of 25 October 2002:

VII. NEGOTIATIONS
18. At the Fourth Ministerial Conference, Ministers agreed to negotiations aimed at clarifying and
improving disciplines under, inter alia , the Agreement, while preserving the basic concepts, principles
and effectiveness of that Agreement and its instruments and objectives, and taking into account the
needs of developing and least-developed part icipants (WT/MIN(01)/DEC/1, para. 28).  The
negotiations are being undertaken in the Negotiating Group on Rules, under the overall supervision of
the Trade Negotiations Committee established by the Ministers.
VIII.  OTHER MATTERS
19. Working Group on Implementation :  The Working Group on Implementation held two
regular working meetings during the period under review, in April and October 2002, and as notedabove, also met in informal session to address th e implementation-related issues referred to it by
Ministers.  During the Committee's October 2001 meeting a decision concerning which, if any, new
topics proposed for discussion by the Group, had been deferred pending the outcome of the Fourth
Ministerial Conference.  At the special meeting of the Committee on 7 December 2001, the
Committee decided not to refer any new topics to the Group at that time.
20. At its regular working meetings, the Group continued its discussion of the six topics referred
to it by the Committee in April 1999,
2 as well as draft recommendations on certain matters under
discussion.  At its meeting in April 2002, the Gr oup considered a draft recommendation on conditions
of competition that may be relevant to a decision whether a cumulative assessment of the effects of
imports is appropriate.  Although the Group was unable to come to agreement on the text of the draftrecommendation, a number of revisions were proposed, and the Group agreed to consider the draft
further at its next meeting.  The Group also discussed the text of a draft decision on the status of
adopted recommendations, but no consensus was reached and Members agreed to revert to the matter
at a subsequent meeting.
21. At its meeting in October 2002, despite the lack of new papers, the Group had a useful and
productive discussion of the draft recommendation on conditions of competition that may be relevant
to a decision whether a cumulative assessment of the effects of imports is appropriate. Although noagreement was reached, suggested revisions will be incorporated into a revised version of the draft
recommendation for consideration at the next meeting.  The Group also discussed briefly the
outstanding issue of the status of adopted recommendations, although the draft text was not addressed.
Members discussed the course of future work of the Group, and agreed to begin the process of
                                                     
2 The six topics were: practical issues and expe rience in applying Article 2.4.2, termination of
investigations under Article 5.8 in cases of de minimis  import volume, practical issues and experience in cases
involving cumulation under Article 3.3, practical issues and experience with respect to questionnaires and
requests for information under Articles 6.1 and 6.1.1, practical issues and experience in providing opportunities
for industrial users and consumer organizations to provide information under Article 6.12, and practical issuesand experience in conducting "new shipper" reviews under Article 9.5 (G/ADP/W/410).G/L/581

considering new topics of discussion.  Proposals for new topics of discussion should be submitted to
the Secretariat no later than 31 March 2003.
22. Informal Group on Anti-Circumvention :  The Informal Group on Anti-Circumvention met
twice during the period under review, in April and October 2002.  The Informal Group continued its
discussions on the first and second items of the agreed framework, i.e., "what constitutes
circumvention" and "what is being done by Members confronted with what they consider to be
circumvention".  Members conducted the discussion s based on one new paper,  written answers from
two Members to oral questions raised at the meeting in October 2001, and further statements at the
meetings.  The Group also started discussing Topic 3, namely, "to what extent can Circumvention be
dealt with under the relevant WTO rules? To what extent can it not? And what other options may be
deemed necessary?", on the basis of a paper submitted just prior to the April meeting.
23. At its meeting in October 2002, the Informal Group continued its discussions under the
agreed framework.  Despite only one new paper having been submitted, Members had a lively and
informative discussion ranging over all three of the topics set out in the framework for discussion.  In
addition, answers to previously submitted written questions were discussed.  Members also discussed
the future work program of the Group, and agreed to continue the discussions in the Informal Group.
24. Other Business :  During the review period, the Committee noted statements regarding the
following items under the agenda item "Other Business":
