SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On July 11, 2005, the Department of Commerce (``the Department'') 
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the 
antidumping duty order on folding metal tables and chairs from the 
People's Republic of China (``PRC''). See Folding Metal Tables and 
Chairs from the People's Republic of China: Notice of Preliminary 
Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 39726 (July 
11, 2005). The Department is extending the time limit for the final 
results of the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on 
folding metal tables and chairs from the PRC. This review covers the 
period June 1, 2003, through May 31, 2004.

Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Review

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (``the 
Act'') states that if it is not practicable to complete the review 
within the time specified, the administering authority may extend the 
120-day period, following the date of publication of the preliminary 
results, to issue its final results by an additional 60 days. 
Completion of the final results within the 120-day period is not 
practicable for the following reasons: (1) The review involves a large 
number of complex inventory reconciliations of a respondent's raw 
material, components and finished stock warehouses, and its work in 
process; and (2) Due to the unknown number of purported sample 
transactions for New-Tec Integration (Xiamen) Co., Ltd. at the time of 
the preliminary results, the Department issued multiple supplemental 
questionnaires after the preliminary results of review, which the 
Department now needs to review and subsequently adjust its schedule for 
this review.
    Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the 
Department is extending the time period for issuing the final results 
of review by 60 days until January 7, 2006. Additionally, the 
Department will notify all parties once it has established the briefing 
schedule.
    This notice is published in accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A) 
and 777(i) of the Act.

    Dated: November 3, 2005.
Stephen J. Claeys,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
