 2. US Industrial Chemical s Go. has informed the Commission that it changed
     its business name with effect from 17 December 1987 and that it has
     subsequently exported under the name of "Quantum Chemical Corporation,
    USI Division".
 3. Having examined the documents submitted by the applicant in support of
     its assertion, the Commission has   verified the change of business name
    and the fact that there has been no other change in ownership or in the
    legal, production or marketing structures of the company in question.
    It therefore considers that the 5.9% rate of the anti-dumping duty is
    applicable to Quantum Chemical Corporation, USI Division.
4. The Council confirms the Commission's conclusion. Regulation (EEC)
    No 1282/81 must therefore be amended again in order to ensure its uniform
    application in all the Member States, with effect from 17 December 1987,
    so as to cover all consignments from the company in question under its
    new name,
