EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES – ANTI-DUMPING MEASURE
ON FARMED SALMON FROM NORWAY

Request for Consultations by Norway

Addendum

 The following communication, dated 27 March 2006, from the delegation of Norway to the
delegation of the European Communities and to th e Chairman of the Dispute Settlement Body, is
circulated in accordance with Article 4.4 of the DSU.

 On 17 March 2006, Norway requested consulta tions with the European Communities ("EC")
with respect to Council Regulation (EC) No . 85/2006 of 17 January 2006 imposing a definitive
anti-dumping duty and collecting definitively the provisional duty imposed on imports of farmed
salmon originating in Norway.
1 With respect to this same measure, my authorities have instructed me
to clarify the legal basis for Norway's complaint. This clarification supplements, and must be read
with, Norway's initial request for consultations.

 The EC has determined that farmed Atlantic salmon constitutes a single product, whether or
not the farmed salmon consists of whole fish or f illeted portions of varying sizes and form. Norway
considers that, by virtue of this product dete rmination, the EC's measure is inconsistent, inter alia ,
with the following provisions of the Anti-Dumping Agreement:

 1. Article 5 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement , including Articles 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4,
because the EC improperly initiated an inves tigation into a single product that, for
purposes of the obligations in this Agreement, consists of more than one product;

 2. Article 2 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement, including Articles 2.1 and 2.6, because the
EC made dumping determinations for a single product that, for purposes of the
obligations in this Agreement, consists of more than one product;

 3. Article 3 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement , including Articles 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and
3.6, because the EC made an injury determ ination in relation to the EC domestic
industry producing a single product that, for purposes of the obligations in this
Agreement, consists of more than one product; and,

 4. Article 9 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement, including Articles 9.1, 9.2 and 9.4, because
the EC imposed anti-dumping duties on imports of a single product that, for purposes
of the obligations in this Agreement, consists of more than one product.

1 WT/DS337/1.

 Norway wishes to emphasize that the issue of the product scope of the EC's measure is also
relevant to several claims that are identified in Norway's initial request for consultations.

 We look forward to receiving your reply to the present request and to fixing a mutually
convenient date for consultations.
