determining the world market price for unginned cotton

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Protocol 4 on cotton, annexed to the Act of Accession of Greece, as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 1050/2001(1),

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 of 22 May 2001 on production aid for cotton(2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001(3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.

(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.

(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 22,341/100 kg.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 15 February 2002.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Council Regulation (EC) No 268/2002

of 12 February 2002

terminating the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of polysulphide polymers originating in the United States of America

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), and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal submitted by the Commission after consulting the Advisory Committee,

Whereas:

A. PROCEDURE

(1) Regulation (EC) No 1965/98(2) imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on polysulphide polymers originating in the United States of America in September 1998.

(2) These duties were imposed following a complaint lodged by Akcros Chemicals GmbH & Co. KG, Germany, the sole Community producer of polysulphide polymers.

B. WITHDRAWAL OF THE COMPLAINT AND TERMINATION OF THE PROCEEDING

(3) By a letter of 20 July 2001 to the Commission, Akcros Chemicals GmbH & Co. KG formally withdrew its complaint and requested that the measures be repealed. This request was based on the fact that the sole exporting producer in the relevant country had decided to cease production of the product concerned.

(4) In accordance with Article 9(1) of Regulation (EC) No 384/96, a proceeding may be terminated where the complaint is withdrawn, unless such termination would not be in the Community interest.

(5) The Commission announced its intention to investigate whether the measures should be retained in a Notice published on 4 October 2001(3). Two responses were received following this Notice from the user industry, both supporting the repealing of the measures. In addition, the sole Community producer confirmed its position that the measures were no longer appropriate. It is, therefore, considered that termination of the proceeding would not be against the Community interest.

(6) It is therefore concluded that the anti-dumping proceeding concerning polysulphide polymers originating in the United States of America should be terminated,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Sole Article

The anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of polysulphide polymers currently classifiable within CN code ex 4002 99 90 and originating in the United States of America is hereby terminated.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
