*****COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1798/90  of 27 June 1990  imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of monosodium glutamate originating in Indonesia, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan and Thailand and definitively collecting the provisional anti-dumping duty imposed on such imports  THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 of 11 July 1988 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), and in particular Article 12 thereof,  Having regard to the proposal from the Commission submitted after consultation within the Advisory Committee as provided for under that Regulation,  Whereas:  A. Provisional measures  (1) The Commission, by Regulation (EEC) No 547/90 (2) imposed provisional anti-dumping duty on imports of monosodium glutamate (hereinafter referred to as 'KSG') originating in Indonesia, the Republic of Korea. Taiwan and Thailand, and accepted undertakings from all the exporters which cooperated in the investigation and terminated the investigation concerning those exporters.  B. Subsequent procedure  (2) Following the imposition of the provisional duty on interested party requested a hearing or made written submissions within the time limit with regard to the findings set out in Regulation (EEC) No 547/90. Only one exporter namely Cheil Sugar Co. Ltd, Seoul, whose undertaking had been accepted, informed the Commission that its company name had changed to Cheil Foods & Chemicals Inc., Seoul.  (3) After expiry of the time limit, the company Tesco Chemiehandel GmbH, Duesseldorf, which was listed in recital (3) (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 547/90 amongst 'importers in the Community', claimed that it should have not been mentioned in that Regulation, as it did not import WSG originating in the countries concerned.  C. Dumping  (4) No new evidence on dumping has been received since the imposition of the provisional duty and the Commission therefore considers its findings on dumping as set out in Regulation No 547/90 to be definitive.  Consequently, the preliminary determinations on dumping are confirmed by the Council.  D. Injury  (5) As no fresh evidence regarding injury to the Community industry was received, the Council also confirms the conclusions on injury reached in Regulation (EEC) 547/90.  E. Community interest  (6) No observations were received from any interested party within the time limit laid down in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 547/90 and the Commission had no reason to change its conclusions set out in recital 23 of the said Regulation.  (7) The Council confirms that it is in the Community's interest that action be taken. In these circumstances, the Community's interest calls for the imposition of definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of monosodium glutamate originating in Indonesia, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan and Thailand.  F. Amount of definitive duty  (8) In the light of the above determination, the amounts of the definitive anti-dumping duty should be the same as the amounts of the provisional anti-dumping duty.  G. Collection of provisional duty  (9) In view of the size of the dumping margins found and the seriousness of the injury caused to Community producers, it is considered necessary that amounts secured by way of provisional anti-dumping duty should be collected in full,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  1.
