Preparations of a kind used in animal feeding See note 1 to this chapter. The content of milk products, the content of starch and the content of starch degradation products (glucose syrup, maltodextrin and maltodextrin syrup, including glucose) are calculated on the product as received. As regards milk products, see Additional note 4 to this chapter. As regards starch and its degradation products, the following applies: — For the determination of starch content, the polarimetric method (also called the modified Ewers method) laid down in Annex III, part L, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009 (OJ L 54, 26.2.2009, p. 1) is to be applied. Where the polarimetric method is not applicable, e. g. due to presence in significant amounts of materials such as those listed hereafter, the enzymatic analytical method for the determination of the starch content laid down in the Annex to Commission Regulation (EC) No 121/2008 (OJ L 37, 12.2.2008, p. 3) is to be applied. The following specific materials are known to give rise to interferences by applying the polarimetric method: (a) (sugar) beet products such as (sugar) beet pulp, (sugar) beet molasses, (sugar) beet pulp-molassed, (sugar) beet vinasse, (beet) sugar; (b) citrus pulp; (c) linseed; linseed expeller; linseed extracted; (d) rape seed; rape seed expeller; rape seed extracted; rape-seed hulls; (e) sunflower seed; sunflower seed extracted; sunflower seed, partially decorticated, extracted; (f) copra expeller; copra extracted; (g) potato pulp; (h) dehydrated yeast; (i) products rich in inulin (for example, chips and meal of Jerusalem artichokes); (j) greaves; (k) soya products Where it is not evident whether any starch is present, a qualitative microscopic method or a qualitative colouration test with iodine solution may be used to verify the presence of starch. — For the quantitative determination of starch and its degradation products (glucose, glucose syrup, maltodextrin or maltodextrin syrup of subheadings 1702 30 50, 1702 30 90, 1702 40 90, 1702 90 50 and 2106 90 55), the method laid down in Annex I to Commission Regulation (EU) No 118/2010 (OJ L 37, 9.2.2010, p. 21) is to be applied. — For the purposes of subheadings 2309 10 11 to 2309 10 90 and 2309 90 31 to 2309 90 96, products with a content lower than 5 % by weight of starch (determined by the polarimetric method laid down in Annex III, part L, to Regulation (EC) No 152/2009 or the enzymatic method laid down in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 121/2008) should not be considered as ‘containing starch’. Products with a content lower than 5 % by weight of starch and its degradation products (determined by the method laid down in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 118/2010) should not be considered as ‘containing starch, glucose, glucose syrup, maltodextrin or maltodextrin syrup’. — High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) may be used for the determination of glucose (Commission Regulation (EC) No 904/2008 (OJ L 249, 18.9.2008, p. 9)).’

Notice concerning the anti-dumping measures in force in respect of imports of certain grain-oriented flat-rolled products of silicon-electrical steel originating, inter alia, in the Russian Federation: modification of the name of a company subject to anti-dumping measures

(2017/C 206/15)

Imports of certain grain-oriented flat-rolled products of silicon-electrical steel originating, inter alia, in the Russian Federation are subject to a minimum price regime in combination with definitive anti-dumping duties, imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1953 (1).

OJSC Novolipetsk Steel, a company located in the Russian Federation whose exports to the Union of certain grain-oriented flat-rolled products of silicon-electrical steel are subject to these measures, including an individual anti-dumping duty rate of 21,6 % imposed by the aforementioned regulation, informed the Commission that it has changed its legal form to Public Joint Stock Company (PJSC) and its company name in English to ‘Novolipetsk Steel’ (contracted name in English: ‘NLMK’, contracted name in Russian: ‘ПАО НЛМК’).

The company has asked the Commission to confirm that the change of name does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the individual duty rate which is under certain circumstances, as described in Article 1(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1953, applicable to the company under its previous name.

The Commission has examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name in no way affects the findings of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1953.

Therefore, the reference in Article 1(4) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1953 to:

‘OJSC Novolipetsk Steel, Lipetsk’

should be read as:

‘Novolipetsk Steel, Lipetsk’.

The TARIC additional code C043 previously attributed to OJSC Novolipetsk Steel, Lipetsk and VIZ Steel, Ekaterinburg, shall apply to Novolipetsk Steel, Lipetsk and VIZ Steel, Ekaterinburg.

Notice concerning the anti-dumping measures in force on imports into the Union of ceramic tableware and kitchenware originating in the People’s Republic of China: change of the name of a company subject to the anti-dumping duty rate for cooperating non-sampled companies

(2017/C 204/08)

Imports of ceramic tableware and kitchenware (‘tableware’) originating in the People’s Republic of China are subject to a definitive anti-dumping duty, imposed by Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013 of 13 May 2013 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and collecting definitively the provisional duty imposed on imports of ceramic tableware and kitchenware originating in the People's Republic of China (1) (‘Regulation (EU) No 412/2013’).

One company located in the People’s Republic of China, TARIC (2) additional code B521, whose exports to the Union of tableware are subject to the anti-dumping duty rate for cooperating non-sampled companies of 17,9 % informed the Commission that it had changed its name as set out below.

The company asked the Commission to confirm that the change of name does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the duty rate applied to the company under its previous name.

The Commission examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name in no way affects the findings of Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

Therefore, the references in Annex I of Regulation (EU) No 412/2013 to:

Fujian De Hua Jiashun Art&Crafts Co., Ltd B521

should be read as:

Combs, hair-slides and the like; hairpins, curling pins, curling grips, hair-curlers and the like, other than those of heading 8516, and parts thereof See the HS Explanatory Note to heading 9615, fourth paragraph. For the purposes of this heading, the expression “hair-slides and the like” includes goods made from solid materials, as articles of this heading are usually made of base metal or plastics. Therefore, this heading does not include headbands and hairbands. These are classified as follows: a) Hairbands and headbands, consisting, for example, of a tubular knitted, elasticated loop (see photo 1), or of a rubber loop covered with textile (see photo 2), or of an elasticated band completely covered by a woven textile fabric (see photo 3), or of a loop made-up of an elastic textile band (see photo 4) are classified as clothing accessories under heading 6117 or 6217. Examples: 1. Hairband 2. Hairband 3. Hairband 4. Headband b) Hairbands and headbands, consisting of a loop or band of a textile fabric of Section XI and having a decoration of, for example, wooden beads, plastic pearls, or leather or textile elements, are considered having the essential character of other made-up clothing accessories and are thus classified under heading 6117 or 6217, by application of GIR 3(b). Examples: c) Hairbands and headbands consisting mainly of, for example, plastic sequins, glued or stitched on a non-elastic textile band and covering nearly all the visible surface of the article and thus giving the article its essential character, are classified under heading 7117, by application of GIR 3(b) and Notes 9(a) and 11 to chapter 71. Example: d) Hairbands and headbands consisting wholly or partially of natural or cultured pearls, precious or semi-precious stones, precious metals or of metal clad with precious metal, are classified under headings 7113 and 7116, by application of Notes 1 and 9(a) to chapter 71. See also the HS Explanatory Note to heading 9615, fourth paragraph. e) Hairbands and headbands consisting wholly or partially of fur or of artificial fur are classified under headings 4303 or 4304, by application of Notes 3 and 4 to chapter 43. Example: f) Hairbands and headbands consisting of other materials, not textile covered, whether or not decorated (with the exception of goods referred to under d) and e)) are classified according to the constituent material of the loop, as the essential character is given by the loop and its function (for example, a plastic loop is classified under heading 3926 (see photos 1 and 2) and a rubber loop is classified under heading 4015 (see photo 3), by application of GIR 3(b)). Examples: 1. Hairband 2. Hairband 3. Headband g) Goods, which are classifiable under heading 7117 as imitation jewellery and which can be used, for example, as bracelets or ankle chains, remain classifiable under that heading, even if they can be also used as a headband or hairband.
