REPORT (2004) 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 in to force on 1 January 1995.  All Members of the 
WTO are ipso facto  members of the Committee on Anti-Du mping 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 decisi on 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 fo r Observer status from the Common Market for 
Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the Gu lf Organization for Industrial Consulting are the 
subject of on-going consultations among Members.  
3. The focus of this report is on the period sin ce the Committee's last annual report (G/L/653), 
that is, 25 October 2003 – 29 October 2004 (hereina fter "the review period").  During the review 
period, the Committee held two regular mee tings on 22-23 April 2004 and 26, 28-29 October 2004 
(G/ADP/M/26 and G/ADP/M/27, respectively). 
4. As of the beginning of the review period, Mr. David Evans (New Zealand) was Chairman and 
Mr. Mateo Diego-Fernández (Mexico) was Vice Chairman .  At the beginning of its regular meeting in 
October 2004, the Committee elected Mr. Ernesto Fe rnández (Costa Rica) as Chairman and Ms. 
Nicole Matrai (Australia) as Vice Chairperson.  Ex ceptionally, the Committee agreed that they would 
take office immediately.  
 
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 in form 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 a nd/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 regul ations to the Committee.  Changes in a Member's 
legislation and/or regulations are to be notified to  the Committee as well.  Pursuant to that same 
decision of the Committee, if a Member has no such  legislation or regulations, the Member is to 
inform the Committee of this fact.  The Committe e also decided that Observer governments should 
comply with these notification obligations. G/L/707

 6. As of 29 October 2004, 105 Members had notif ied the Committee regarding their domestic 
anti-dumping legislation.
1  Of these 105 Members, 29 had notif ied the Committee that they had no 
anti-dumping legislation.  Members' communications in  this regard can be found in document series 
G/ADP/N/1/... .  28 Members had not, as yet, made any notification of anti-dumping legislation and/or 
regulations.  Annex A sets out the status of notifi cations concerning legisla tion 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.  
7. During the review period, the Committee revi ewed new notifications regarding anti-dumping 
laws and/or regulations submitted by the following Members: Argentin a, Australia, Canada, European 
Communities, Japan, Jordan, and South Africa.  Written questions and answers regarding these 
notifications can be found in documents of the G/AD P/Q1/... series.  Statemen ts 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 notifications of legislation of China, Mexico, Peru, and South Africa already considered at previous meetings.  Those questions and answers 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 2003 .  As of 29 October 2004, 
semi-annual reports of actions taken during this period had been submitted by 26 Members.  
39 Members had notified the Committee that they ha d 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/112/... .  At the Committee's regular 
meeting in April 2004, the Chairman reported that it appeared that most Members taking actions had submitted semi-annual reports in a timely fash ion.  Members who ha d not submitted reports, 
including Nil returns were strongly urged to subm it these reports.  The Chairman reminded Members 
that the Secretariat was available to assist with  the reporting format, and urged Members to bring 
problems with each others' reports to the Committee.   The Chairman also urged Members to follow 
the guidelines for reports adopted by the Committee a nd set out in document G/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 2004 .  As of 29 October 2004, 
semi-annual reports of actions taken during this period had b een submitted by 27 Members.

1 The European Communities is counted as one Member.  Prior to 1 May 2004, the member-States of 
the EC were the following: Austria, Belgium, Denmar k, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, 
Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.  As of 1 May 2004, the 
member-States of the EC included in addition to the af ore-listed, the following:  Cyprus, the Czech Republic, 
Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, the Slovak Republic, and Slovenia.  This annual report 
includes a period both before and after the accession of these Members to the European Communities.  
Therefore, these Members' separate notifications of legislation, submitted prior to their accession to the EC, are listed in this report.  See document G/ADPN/1/EEC/2/Suppl.6 for updated information on the current status of 
laws and regulations of these Members.  
2 The EC submitted, on behalf of Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estoni a, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, 
Malta, Poland, the Slovak Republic, and Slovenia, a notification of, variously, no actions taken, or anti-dumping 
actions, including revocations, terminations, and the lapse of measures, during the period 1 January – 30 April 
2004  (G/ADP/N/1 19/EEC/Add.1) (see Annex B).  For the period following the date of their accession to the 
EC, i.e. 1 May 2004 to 30 June 2004, the European Comm unities submitted a notification on behalf of the 
European Communities as a whole (G/ADP/N/119/EEC).   
  G/L/707

 33 Members had notified the Committee that they ha d not taken any anti-dumping actions during this 
period.  The remaining Members required to do so ha d not submitted a notification in this regard. The 
semi-annual reports were circulated  in document series G/ADP/N/119/.. . .  At the Committee's regular 
meeting in October 2004, the Chairman reported th at, although there continued to be some problems 
in the form and timeliness of reports, Members had clearly made an effort to submit reports in the 
format established by the Committee.  The Chai rman reminded Members that guidelines for the 
format of semi-annual reports are set out in documen t G/ADP/1, and that the Secretariat was available 
to assist Members with questions about the form of reports. The Chairman strongly urged all Members to comply with the requirement to subm it semi-annual reports in a timely fashion in the 
future.  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 for the period 1 July 2003 -30 June 2004 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 reports of preliminary and final anti-dumping 
actions during the period under cons ideration were received from Argentina, Australia, Brazil, 
Canada, China, Egypt, the Europ ean Communities, India, Indonesia, Jamaica, Korea, Mexico, New 
Zealand, Pakistan, Peru, Poland, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey and the United States as indicated in documents G/ADP/N/110, G/ADP/N /111, G/ADP/N/113, G/ADP/N/114, G/ADP/N/115, 
G/ADP/N/116, G/ADP/N/117, G/ADP/N/118, G/AD P/N/120, G/ADP/N/121, G/ADP/N/122, and 
G/ADP/N/123. 
13. The Committee reviewed the notifications of preliminary and final actions at its regular 
meetings in April and October 2004.  At the Comm ittee's meeting in April 2004, the Chairman noted 
that there continued to be a lack of full compliance in this area and highlighted the importance of this 
notification in the Committee's role in monito ring and discussing actions taken by Members.   At the 
Committee's meeting in October 2004, the Chairman not ed that there still continued to be a lack of 
full compliance in this area, as some Members who submitted semi-annual reports indicating 
preliminary and/or final measures had not submitted re ports of preliminary or final actions taken, as 
reflected in Annex D of this report.   The Chairman  pointed out that if the Committee was to carry out 
its role in monitoring and discussing actions take n by Members, it was extremely important that 
Members notify their preliminary and final acti ons and he strongly urged Members to do so.  
 
V. EFFECT OF MEMBERSHIP ENLARGEMENT ON TRADE REMEDIES 
CURRENTLY IN FORCE IN THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES – ITEM 
REQUESTED BY INDIA, JAPAN, KOREA AND THE UNITED STATES 
14. During the April 2004 meeting, the Committee cons idered this matter, which had been placed 
on the agenda at the request of India, Japan, Korea and the United States.  The delegates of  India, 
Japan, Korea, the United States, China,  Pakist an, Chinese Taipei, Brazil, and Colombia expressed 
their views, and the European Communities responded at the meeting.  The statements of Members 
are reflected in the minutes of the meeting.

 VI. TRANSITIONAL REVIEW OF CHINA 
15. During the October 2004 meeting, the Committee u ndertook the review, as appropriate to its 
mandate, of the implementation by China of the WT O Agreement and of the related provisions of its 
Protocol of Accession, as provided for in Paragr aph 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 questions that had been previously s ubmitted in writing, and to follow-up questions posed 
at the meeting.  The statements of Members are reflected in the minutes of that meeting.
3  T h e  
Committee agreed that its report to the Council for Tr ade in Goods would be in the form of a brief 
factual report, with references to the documents c oncerned, and attaching the portion of the minutes of 
the meeting which relate to the transitional review, prepared by the Chairman on his own 
responsibility.  
 
VII. WORKING GROUP ON IMPLEMENTATION:   
16. The Working Group on Implementation held two re gular working meetings during the period 
under review, in April and October 2004.  
17. At its meeting in April 2004, the Group continued the discussions on the new topics that were 
referred to it by the Committee at its Spring 2003 meeting.4  Although only four Members had 
submitted papers, on three of the new topics,5 the discussion was nonetheless interesting and useful in 
enabling Members to better understand the issues i nvolved and the practices of various Members.  
The Chairman urged Members to submit papers on these topics, as additional information concerning 
national practices and different Members' views woul d add to the value of the discussions.  While the 
Group had made good progress since 2001 in devel oping the text of a draft recommendation 
concerning conditions of competition that may be  relevant to a decision whether a cumulative 
assessment of the effects of imports is appropriate , it became apparent during the meeting in October 
2003 that  significant differences remained between  Members concerning some fundamental elements 
of the draft text.  As it seemed unlikely that fu rther progress in developing consensus on the revised 
draft text was possible, the Group decided to set th e draft recommendation aside , at least for the time 
being.  The Chairman pointed out that any Memb er might ask that it be put on the agenda for 
discussion at any future meeting.   
18. At its meeting in October 2004,  the Group had a further round of discussions on three of the 
four topics that were referred to it by the Comm ittee at its Spring 2003 meeting.  Although only three 
Members submitted papers on three of the new topics,6 the discussion was nonetheless interesting and 
useful, giving Members a better understanding of th e practices of other Members.  Some Members 
                                                      
3 Questions and/or statements were circulated in the following documents: G/ADP/W/439,  
G/ADP/W/440, G/ADP/W/441, G/ADP/W/442 and G/ADP/W/443.   
4 See document G/ADP/W/433, dated 4 June 2003.  The four topics are: Article 2.2 - Export prices to 
third countries or constructed normal value; Article 2.4.1 - Foreign exchange fluctuations; Article 6.7 - Conduct 
of verification; Article 13 - Judicial, arbitral or administrative review. 
5 The following documents were submitted:   
Article 2.2 – paper by New Zealand (G/ADP/AHG/W/161);  
Article 6.7– papers by Argentina (G/ADP/AHG/W/157), the European Communities 
(G/ADP/AHG/W/156), and New Zealand (G/ADP/AHG/W/159);  
Article 13– papers by Australia (G/ADP/AHG/W/160) and the European Communities 
(G/ADP/AHG/W/158).   
6 The following documents were submitted:   
Article 2.2 – paper by Venezuela (G/ADP/AHG/W/162);  
Article 6.7– paper by Turkey (G/ADP/AHG/W/163);  
Article 13– papers by South Africa (G/ADP/AHG /W/165) and Turkey (G/ADP/AHG/W/164).    G/L/707

 welcomed the fact that papers were submitted for the meeting by developing Members, and the 
Chairman strongly encouraged all Members, and pa rticularly developing Members and newer users, 
who had not submitted papers, to do  so, in order to provide Member s with information about national 
practices regarding the matters under discussion.  W ith respect to the futu re work of the Group, 
Members agreed that it was important to make e fforts to ensure broader participation in the 
discussions by Members, and the Chairman was asked  to undertake informal consultations to explore 
options to that end.  
 
VIII.  INFORMAL GROUP ON ANTI-CIRCUMVENTION   
19. The Informal Group on Anti-Circumvention met twice during the period under review, in 
April and October 2004.  The Informal Group cont inued its discussions on the three items of the 
agreed framework, i.e., "What constitutes circumvention?", an d "What is being done by Members 
confronted with what they consider to be circumvention?", and "To what extent can circumvention be dealt with under the relevant  WTO rules?   To wh at extent can it not?  What other options may be 
deemed necessary?". 
20. At the Group's meeting in April 2004, there were no new papers submitted for the meeting, 
but Members nonetheless had engaged in an interest ing discussion, especially in relation to a paper 
submitted at the meeting in October 2003, as well as more generally on the question of how to tackle 
this complex issue.  The Chairman raised, under ot her business, the issue of the further work of the 
Group.  It was apparent that Members wished to c ontinue to address the issue of anti-circumvention in 
the setting of the Informal Group, pursuant to th e Ministerial mandate.  The Chairman urged all 
Members to make the best use of the Group by su bmitting papers and partic ipating actively in the 
discussions.     21. At its meeting in October 2004, th e Group considered one new paper,
7 on which a lively and 
interesting discussion ensued.  Members also address ed a question raised by one Member concerning 
notice of initiation of anti-circumvention enquiri es.  Members also discussed ways to move the 
discussion in the Group forward.  It was clear from the discussions that Members continue to find the 
Group a useful forum, and the Group will continue its work.  The Chairman urged all Members to make the best use of the Group by submitting papers  and participating actively in the discussions.
