The measures took the form of an ad valorem duty ranging between 3,8 % and 19,1 % imposed on imports from individually named exporters, with a residual duty rate of 19,1 % imposed on imports from all other companies.
Meetmed kehtestati 3,8 % kuni 19,1 % väärtuselise tollimaksuna individuaalselt nimetatud eksportijate impordi suhtes; kõikide teiste äriühingute impordile kehtestati jääktollimaksumäär 19,1 %.
The Council, by Regulation (EC) No 1676/2001 [4], imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of PET film originating, inter alia, in India.
Nõukogu kehtestas määrusega (EÜ) nr 1676/2001 [4] lõpliku dumpinguvastase tollimaksu muu hulgas Indiast pärineva PET-kile impordile.
The measures took the form of an ad valorem duty ranging between 0 % and 62,6 % on imports of PET film originating in India (‘the definitive anti-dumping measures’), with the exception of imports from five Indian companies (Ester Industries Limited (Ester), Flex Industries Limited (Flex), Garware Polyester Limited (Garware), MTZ Polyfilms Limited (MTZ), and Polyplex Corporation Limited (Polyplex)) from whom undertakings had been accepted by Commission Decision 2001/645/EC [5] accepting undertakings offered in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of polyethylene terephthalate film originating inter alia in India.
Meetmed kehtestati Indiast pärineva PET-kile impordile väärtuselise tollimaksu kujul, mis jääb 0 % ja 62,6 % vahele (edaspidi “lõplikud dumpinguvastased meetmed”), erandiks viielt India äriühingult pärinev import, Ester Industries Limited (Ester), Flex Industries Limited (Flex), Garware Polyester Limited (Garware), MTZ Polyfilms Limited (MTZ) ja Polyplex Corporation Limited (Polyplex), kelle poolt võetud kohustused on heaks kiidetud komisjoni otsusega 2001/645/EÜ.

Request for a review as regards countervailing measures
Läbivaatamistaotlus dumpinguvastaste meetmete vormi kohta
In 2002, a request for a partial interim review, limited in scope to the form of the countervailing measures in respect of one company, was lodged by (Polyplex), an Indian exporting producer from whom an undertaking had already been accepted by Decision 2001/645/EC in connection with the anti-dumping measures in force.
aastal esitas India eksportiv tootja Polyplex, kelle kohustus oli juba seoses kehtivate dumpinguvastaste meetmetega otsusega 2001/645/EÜ heaks kiidetud, osalise vahepealse läbivaatamise taotluse, mille ulatus oli piiritletud tasakaalustavate meetmete vormiga ühe äriühingu suhtes.
Polyplex provided information that an undertaking of the same nature would remove the injurious effects of subsidisation and could be monitored.
Polyplex esitas teabe, mille kohaselt samalaadne kohustus eemaldaks subsideerimise kahjulikud mõjud ja seda oleks võimalik jälgida.
Therefore, it was warranted to review the form of the countervailing measure.
Seetõttu oli tasakaalustavate meetmete vormi läbivaatamine õigustatud.
In October 2003, a request for a partial interim review limited to the form of the anti-dumping measures was lodged by the following Community producers: Du Pont Teijin Films, Mitsubishi Polyester Film GmbH and Nuroll SpA (the applicants).
aasta oktoobris esitasid ühenduse tootjad Du Pont Teijin Films, Mitsubishi Polyester Film GmbH ja Nuroll SpA (edaspidi “taotluse esitajad”) osalise vahepealse läbivaatamise taotluse, mis oli piiritletud dumpinguvastaste meetmete vormiga.
The applicants represent a major proportion of the Community production of PET film.
Taotluse esitajate toodang moodustab põhiosa ühenduse PET-kile toodangust.
Toray Plastics Europe indicated its support for the request, although it was not a formal applicant.
Toray Plastics Europe väljendas oma toetust taotlusele, kuigi ei olnud ametlik taotluse esitaja.
The applicants alleged that the form of the measures (i.e. the existing undertakings as accepted by Decision 2001/645/EC) was no longer effective in removing the injurious dumping.
Taotlejad väitsid, et meetmete vorm (s.t võetud kohustused, mis on heaks kiidetud otsusega 2001/645/EÜ) ei olnud enam efektiivne kahjustava dumpingu kõrvaldamisel.
The applicants alleged that, since the acceptance of the existing undertakings, which are based on minimum import prices, the range of products sold by the exporters concerned had developed, notably to include more technically sophisticated film, so that the minimum prices under which some products may be categorised no longer reflected their true value, and thus the mechanism of the measures was no longer adequate in view of the new technological developments.
Taotlejad väitsid, et alates olemasolevate kohustuste heakskiitmisest, mis põhinevad minimaalsetel impordihindadel, on vaatlusaluste eksportijate müüdav tootevalik laienenud, eriti hõlmab see tehniliselt täiustatud kilet, mistõttu mõnedele toodetele määratud miinimumhinnad ei peegelda enam nende tõelist väärtust ja seega ei ole meetmete mehhanism uusi tehnoloogilisi arenguid silmas pidades enam asjakohane.
Consequently, the undertakings were said to be no longer adequate to eliminate the injurious effects of dumping.
Järelikult ei ole kohustused väidetavalt enam piisavad dumpingu kahjustava mõju kaotamiseks.

Review regarding countervailing measures
Tasakaalustavaid meetmeid käsitlev läbivaatamine
On 28 June 2002, the Commission announced by a notice of initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union [10], the initiation of a partial interim review of the anti-subsidy measures limited in scope to the examination of the acceptability of an undertaking offered by the Indian exporting producer Polyplex, pursuant to Article 19 of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation.
Komisjon teatas 28. juunil 2002. aastal Euroopa Ühenduste Teatajas avaldatud algatamisteates [10] vastavalt subsiidiumidevastase algmääruse artiklile 19 subsiidiumivastaste meetmete osalise vahepealse läbivaatamise algatamisest, mis piirdub selle kohustuse vastuvõetavuse läbivaatamisega, mille võtmiseks on teinud ettepaneku India eksportiv tootja Polyplex.
Given that a partial interim review of the form of the anti-dumping measures (i.e. the existing undertakings) was initiated in November 2003, as mentioned in recitals (12) and (13) below, the question of the acceptability of Polyplex’s offer of an undertaking was kept open in order to complete both reviews at the same time.
Arvestades, et 2003. aasta novembris algatati dumpinguvastaste meetmete (st olemasolevate kohustuste) vormi osaline vahepealne läbivaatamine, nagu on märgitud 12. ja 13. põhjenduses allpool, hoiti selle kohustuse, mille võtmiseks on teinud ettepaneku Polyplex, vastuvõetavuse küsimus avatuna, et teostada mõlemad läbivaatamised samaaegselt.
The Commission officially informed Polyplex of its intentions in this regard.
Komisjon teavitas Polyplexi ametlikult oma sellekohasest kavatsusest.
No comments were made by the applicant in this respect.
Taotluse esitaja ei esitanud selles küsimuses ühtegi märkust.
Review of the form of the anti-dumping measures
Dumpinguvastaste meetmete vormi läbivaatamine
On 22 November 2003, the Commission announced by a notice of initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union [11], the initiation of a partial interim review in accordance with Article 11(3) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation.
Komisjon teatas 22. novembril 2003. aastal Euroopa Ühenduste Teatajas avaldatud algatamisteadaandes [11] osalise vahepealse läbivaatamise algatamisest vastavalt dumpinguvastase algmääruse artikli 11 lõikele 3.
The review was limited in scope to the form of the measures applicable to the five Indian exporting producers from whom undertakings had been accepted.
Läbivaatamine oli piiritletud viiele India eksportivale tootjale, kelle võetud kohustused olid heaks kiidetud, kohaldatavate meetmete vormiga.
The investigation period was from 1 October 2002 to 30 September 2003 (the current IP).
Uurimine toimus ajavahemikus 1. oktoobrist 2002 kuni 30. septembrini 2003 (edaspidi “käesolev uurimisperiood”).
The Commission officially informed the exporting producers, the representatives of the exporting country and the Community producers about the initiation of the review.
Komisjon informeeris ametlikult eksportivaid tootjaid, eksportiva riigi esindajaid ning ühenduse tootjaid läbivaatamise algatamisest.
Interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing within the time limit indicated in the notice of initiation.
Huvitatud isikutele anti võimalus teha oma seisukohad teatavaks kirjalikult ja taotleda ärakuulamist algatamisteates sätestatud tähtaja jooksul.
In order to obtain the information deemed necessary for its investigation, the Commission sent questionnaires to the exporting producers concerned, which all cooperated by replying to the questionnaire.
Uurimise jaoks vajaliku teabe saamiseks saatis komisjon küsimustikud vaatlusalustele eksportivatele tootjatele, kes kõik tegid küsimustikule vastates koostööd.
Verification visits were carried out at the premises of the following exporting producers in India:
Kontrollkäigud tehti järgmiste India eksportivate tootjate valdustesse:
The product concerned is, as defined in the original investigation, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film originating in India, normally declared under CN codes ex39206219 and ex39206290.
Vaatlusalune toode, nagu on määratletud esialgses uurimises, on Indiast pärinev polüetüleentereftalaatkile (PET-kile), mida tavaliselt deklareeritakse CN-koodide ex39206219 ja ex39206290 all.
FINDINGS
UURIMISTULEMUSED
PET film has specific physical, chemical and technical characteristics, which include thickness, coating properties, surface treatment and mechanical properties among others, which determine various types of PET film through different treatments of base film during or after the production process, including corona treatment, metallisation or chemical coating.
PET-kilel on spetsiifilised füüsikalised, keemilised ja tehnilised omadused, mis hõlmavad muu hulgas tihedust, pindamisomadusi, pinnatöötlust ja mehaanilisi omadusi, mis olenevad PET-kile eri tüüpide aluskile erinevast töötlemisest tootmisprotsessi ajal või pärast seda, sealhulgas koroonalahendusega töötlemine, metalliseerimine või keemiline pindamine.
It therefore exists in many different forms or types.
Seetõttu võib kile esineda mitmetes vormides või tüüpides.
Given the existence of the large number of different product presentations (product types), and for the purpose of facilitating the monitoring of the undertakings, the products were grouped under different categories (groupings) based on technical characteristics.
Võttes arvesse erinevate toodete suurt arvu (“tootetüüpe”), rühmitati tooted kohustuste jälgimise hõlbustamiseks erinevatesse kategooriatesse (“rühmadesse”) nende tehniliste omaduste põhjal.
These groupings served as the basis for establishing the minimum import prices (MIPs) set out in the undertakings.
Need rühmad olid kohustustes sätestatud minimaalsete impordihindade kindlaksmääramise aluseks.
In the original investigation, the number of MIPs established on the basis of those groupings ranged from 10 to 32 per exporter.
Esialgses uurimises ulatus nende rühmade põhjal kindlaks määratud minimaalsete impordihindade arv eksportija kohta kümnest kolmekümne kaheni.
In the framework of the current review, a comparison was made, within groupings, of the mix of model types and of price variations between the investigation period used in the original investigation (original IP) and the current IP.
Käesoleva läbivaatamise raames võrreldi rühmadesisest mudelivalikut ja hinnaerinevusi esialgses uurimises kasutatud uurimisperioodi (edaspidi “esialgne uurimisperiood”) ja käesoleva uurimisperioodi vahel.
The analysis showed that the mix of model types sold under certain product groupings have changed since the acceptance of the undertakings.
Analüüs näitas, et teatavate tooterühmade all müüdavate mudelite valik on kohustuste heakskiitmisest alates muutunud.
For several companies under investigation these changes have been very significant, to the extent that for some groupings most of the product presentations exported to the Community during the IP no longer correspond to the products exported during the original IP.
Mitme uurimise all oleva äriühingu puhul on need muudatused olnud märkimisväärsed, kuni selleni, et mõnede rühmade puhul ei vasta enamik uurimisperioodil ühendusse eksporditavate toodete esinemisvormidest enam esialgsel uurimisperioodil eksporditud toodetele.
Examples of changes which were noted within groupings were the dropping of lower value products, the addition of new apparently higher value products, and sometimes a combination of both of these.
Rühma piires märgatud muudatuste hulka kuulusid näiteks madalama väärtusega toodetest loobumine, uute näiliselt kõrgema väärtusega toodete lisamine ja mõnikord kahe eeltoodu kombinatsioon.
The analysis also showed that for certain product groupings the price variance (the range of product values) within the grouping has changed significantly since the acceptance of the undertakings.
Analüüs näitas ka, et teatavates tooterühmades on rühmasisene hinnaerinevus (tooteväärtuste diapasoon) pärast kohustuste heakskiitmist märkimisväärselt muutunud.
In this context it should also be noted that there has been a significant change in the pattern of sales between the different product groupings following the acceptance of undertakings.
Sellega seoses tuleb märkida, et ka erinevate tooterühmade müügistruktuuris on pärast kohustuste heakskiitmist toimunud olulised muutused.
In particular, there appears to have been a tendency to concentrate sales on those groupings with a lower minimum price.
Müük on ilmselt üritatud koondada nendesse rühmadesse, mille miinimumhind on väiksem.
Since the MIPs and the undertakings were established on the basis of the mix of product types and their corresponding values within the product groupings during the original IP, it is clear that the changes found in relation to the actual mix of products and values within those product groupings have rendered those specific MIPs, and therefore the undertakings, inappropriate to counteract the injurious effect of dumping.
Kuna minimaalsed impordihinnad ja kohustused määrati kindlaks esialgse uurimisperioodi jooksul rühmasiseselt tootevaliku ja vastavavate väärtuste põhjal, siis on selge, et nendes tooterühmades toimunud tootevaliku ja väärtuste muutused on muutnud vastavad minimaalsed impordihinnad ning seetõttu ka kohustused sobimatuteks dumpingu kahjustava mõju vastu.
Request regarding countervailing measures
Tasakaalustavaid meetmeid käsitlev taotlus
As regards the review limited in scope to the examination of the acceptability of an undertaking offered by Polyplex, the analysis showed that the corporate structure of that company would render monitoring of an undertaking complex, thus making an undertaking inappropriate as a form of effective countervailing measure.
Selle kohustuse vastuvõetavuse läbivaatamine, mille võtmiseks tegi ettepaneku Polyplex, näitas, et nimetatud äriühingu struktuur muudaks kohustuse jälgimise komplitseerituks, muutes seega kohustuse kui efektiivse tasakaalustava meetme vormi ebasobivaks.
The complexity arises from the fact that the product concerned is also manufactured by a related company of Polyplex in a third country (Thailand), which creates a risk of cross-compensation of prices should the company in Thailand also export the product concerned to the Community.
Komplitseeritus tuleneb asjaolust, et vaatlusalust toodet toodab ka Polyplexi sidusettevõte kolmandas riigis (Tais), mis loob hindade ristkompenseerimise ohu juhul, kui Tais asuv äriühing peaks samuti vaatlusalust toodet ühendusse eksportima.
Monitoring and therefore enforcement would be too difficult to guarantee a proper functioning of the undertaking.
Kohustuse jälgimine ja seetõttu ka rakendamine oleksid liiga keerulised selle nõuetekohase funktsioneerimise tagamiseks.
The undertakings as they are, with MIPs based on groups of products, permit a large degree of flexibility for the exporters to change the technical characteristics of the products within the group.
Olemasolevad kohustused ja tooterühmadel põhinevad minimaalsed impordihinnad annavad eksportijatele suure paindlikkuse toodete tehniliste omaduste rühmasiseseks muutmiseks.
The product concerned comprises numerous and evolving differentiating features, which largely determine sales prices.
Vaatlusalusel tootel on mitmeid jätkuvalt arenevaid omadusi, mis määravad suures osas müügihinnad.
Changes in those features consequently have a significant impact on prices.
Järelikult on muudatustel nende omaduste osas märkimisväärne mõju hindadele.
The only viable way to make the groupings more homogeneous in terms of physical characteristics and prices would be to subdivide the groupings.
Ainus toimiv viis rühmade ühetaolisemaks muutmiseks nende füüsikaliste omaduste ja hindade põhjal oleks nende jagamine alarühmadeks.
However, the consequence would be a multiplication of groupings that would render monitoring unworkable, in particular, by making it difficult for customs authorities to discern the difference between product types and the classification of products by grouping upon importation.
Siiski oleks tulemuseks rühmade mitmekordistumine, mis muudaks jälgimise teostamatuks, tehes eriti keeruliseks tollivõimude jaoks tootetüüpide erinevuste eristamise ning toodete klassifitseerimise rühmade kaupa importimisel.
Moreover, the number of groupings per company might increase by a factor of 5 to 11 compared to those in the undertakings if more characteristics of the different product types were considered in order to arrive at a more accurate classification.
Veelgi enam, rühmade arv äriühingu kohta võiks kasvada 5 kuni 11 võrra võrreldes kohustustes olevaga, kui täpsema klassifikatsiooni saavutamiseks võetaks arvesse rohkem eri tootetüüpide omadusi.
Currently, product types already fall into more than several hundred detailed groupings, thus rendering undertakings unworkable.
Praegusel hetkel jagunevad tootetüübid juba enam kui mitmesajasse üksikasjalikku rühma, muutes seega kohustused teostamatuks.
This number might increase with further developments of the product characteristics.
See arv võib toote omaduste edasise arenguga veelgi kasvada.
For certain companies subject to the review, the model types sold under a particular product grouping did not change significantly since the acceptance of the undertakings.
Teatavate äriühingute puhul, kelle suhtes läbivaatamist kohaldati, ei ole kindla tooterühma all müüdavad mudelid alates kohustuste heakskiitmisest märkimisväärselt muutunud.
However, the likely increase in the number of product groupings due to further developments in the product groupings, as mentioned in recital (22), could arise at any future stage and in the case of any exporting producer.
Siiski võib tulevikus mis tahes eksportiva tootja puhul toimuda tooterühmade arvu tõenäoline kasv tooterühmade edasise arengu tõttu nagu on mainitud 22. põhjenduses.
It can therefore be concluded that, in order to enable effective monitoring of the undertakings, the groupings of products should be considerably more homogeneous in terms of physical characteristics and prices.
Seetõttu võib järeldada, et kohustuste efektiivse jälgimise tagamiseks peaksid tooterühmad olema tunduvalt ühetaolisemad füüsikaliste omaduste ja hindade poolest.
These characteristics should be stable throughout the duration of the undertaking.
Need omadused peaksid olema stabiilsed kogu kohustuse kestvuse ajal.
The investigation has confirmed that this has not been the case as regards PET-film.
Uurimine on kinnitanud, et PET-kile suhtes ei ole see nii olnud.
On the basis of the above facts and considerations, it is considered that the undertakings are not appropriate to counteract the injurious effect of dumping, since they present both considerable monitoring and enforcement difficulties and unacceptable risks.
Eespool esitatud faktide ja kaalutluste põhjal leitakse, et kohustused ei ole sobivad dumpingu kahjuliku mõju kõrvaldamiseks, kuna nii nende jälgimine kui ka rakendamine on märkimisväärselt keeruline ning nendega on seotud vastuvõetamatud riskid.
In these circumstances, the undertakings accepted from the five Indian producers subject to the review of the form of the anti-dumping measures should be withdrawn.
Sellises olukorras tuleks tühistada nende viie India tootja kohustused, kelle suhtes kohaldati dumpinguvastaste meetmete vormi läbivaatamist.
All parties concerned were informed of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which the decision to withdraw the existing undertakings was made, and were given the opportunity to comment.
Kõiki asjaomaseid isikuid teavitati olulistest faktidest ja kaalutlustest, mille põhjal tehti olemasolevate kohustuste tagasivõtmise otsus ning neile anti võimalus esitada märkusi.
Further to disclosure, some parties indicated that they considered that there were no monitoring or enforcement difficulties related to the undertakings and therefore there were no risks associated with the form of the measures.
Avalikustamise järel teatasid mõned osapooled, et nende arvates ei eksisteeri kohustustega seotud jälgimis- ja jõustamisprobleeme ning seetõttu ei seondu meetmete vormiga mingeid riske.
Furthermore many of the exporting producers indicated that they had not violated their undertaking agreements.
Lisaks märkisid mitmed eksportivad tootjad, et nad ei ole kohustuslepinguid rikkunud.
One of the exporting producers concerned indicated that whereas the Notice of Initiation referred to the significance of the development of new product types, they had not introduced any new product types into the EU between the time of the offer of the existing undertaking and the current IP.
Üks asjaomane eksportiv tootja märkis, et algatamisteates oli viidatud uute tootetüüpide arendamise tähtsusele, kuid nad ei olnud ELi turule toonud ühtki uut tootetüüpi ajavahemikus olemasoleva kohustuse võtmisest kuni käesoleva uurimisperioodini.
