natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
The determination of the Community interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests, such as the Community industry, the importers and users of the product concerned.
Ühenduse huvide määratlemisel peeti silmas kõiki menetlusega seotud isikuid nagu ühenduse tootmisharu, importijad ja vaatlusaluse toote tarbijad.
In order to assess the likely impact of a continuation of the measures, the Commission services requested information from all interested parties mentioned above.
Hindamaks meetmete jätkamise tõenäolist mõju, soovisid komisjoni talitused informatsiooni kõikidelt eespool nimetatud huvitatud isikutelt.
It should be recalled that in the previous investigation the adoption and maintenance of measures was considered not to be against the interest of the Community.
Tuleb meenutada, et varasema uurimise käigus tuvastati, et meetmete rakendamine ja säilitamine ei ole ühenduse huvidega vastuolus.
Due to the large number of importers, it was decided to apply sampling.
Tulenevalt importijate suurest hulgast otsustati kasutada valimi meetodit.
Sampling questionnaires were sent to 21 importers/users and replies from all were received.
Valimi küsimustikud saadeti 21 importijale/tarbijale ning saadi kõigilt vastused.
The sample taken included five Community importers.
Valimisse kuulusid viis ühenduse importijat.
In accordance with Article 17 of the basic Regulation, this sample covered more than 80 % of the total imports and was the largest representative volume of imports which could reasonably be investigated within the time available.
Vastavalt algmääruse artiklile 17 hõlmas valim üle 80 % kogu impordist, mis oli suurim representatiivne impordimaht, mida antud aja jooksul oli võimalik uurida.
Each of the five importers included in the sample submitted a full questionnaire reply.
Kõik valimisse kuuluvad viis importijat esitasid küsimustikule täieliku vastuse.
Altogether, 23 questionnaires were sent out to users of which seven submitted questionnaire replies.
Tarbijatele saadeti kokku 23 küsimustikku, millest seitsmele saadi vastused.
Furthermore, questionnaires were sent to importer/user organisations. The European Fertiliser Import Association (EFIA) replied to the questionnaire as well as a number of user associations in different Member States.
Küsimustikud saadeti ka importijate/tarbijate organisatsioonidele: küsimustikule vastasid nii Euroopa Väetiseimportijate Assotsiatsioon (EFIA) kui ka paljud tarbijaühendused eri liikmesriikides.
On this basis, it was examined whether, despite the findings on continuation of dumping and recurrence of injury, compelling reasons existed which would lead to the conclusion that it is not in the Community interest to maintain measures in this particular case.
Sellele tuginedes uuriti, kas hoolimata järeldustest, et dumping jätkub ja kahju kordub, leidub mõjuvaid põhjuseid jõudmaks järeldusele, et antud juhul ei ole meetmete jätkamine ühenduse huvides.
In the course of this investigation it has been established that the Community industry is viable and competitive, but continues to be in a fragile situation.
Uurimise käigus tuvastati, et ühenduse tootmisharu on elujõuline ja konkurentsivõimeline, kuid jätkuvalt raskes seisus.
This is partly due to its shrinking market share in the Community, and also to its unsatisfactory profit situation which has still not recovered to a normal and stable level, supporting the high investment necessary to bring the industry back to a long term sound perspective.
Osaliselt tuleneb see vähenevast turuosast ühenduses ning vähesest kasumist, mis pole veel tõusnud tavalisele stabiilsele tasemele, toetamaks tootmisharule kindla pikaajalise perspektiivi tagamiseks vajalikke suuri investeeringuid.
The trade union association of miners in the Community and the General Workers Union of the United Kingdom came forward arguing that the Community industry provided for an important number of jobs in the Community which would be put at risk if measures would lapse.
Ühenduse kaevurite ametiühingu assotsiatsioon ja Suurbritannia tööliste ametiühing väljendasid seisukohta, et ühenduse tootmisharu tagab olulise arvu töökohti ühenduses, mis võivad meetmete kehtetuks muutumisel ohtu sattuda.
In view of the economic difficulties experienced by the Community industry in the past and the still volatile situation of the market as experienced during the IP, it is considered that if the measures were allowed to lapse the situation of the Community industry would be put at risk.
Pidades silmas ühenduse tootmisharu läbielatud raskusi ja jätkuvalt muutlikku turusituatsiooni uurimisperioodil, leitakse, et meetmetest loobumine ohustab ühenduse tootmisharu olukorda.
If, however, measures are maintained, this will allow the Community industry to further recover and in particular gain a perspective which allows the investments necessary to ensure the long-term viability and competitiveness of the industry.
Juhul, kui meetmed säilitatakse, võimaldaks see ühenduse tootmisharul tugevneda ja eelkõige saavutada tootmisharu pikaajalise elu- ja konkurentsivõime tagamiseks vajalikke investeeringuid võimaldav kasum.
Therefore, the continuation of measures is in the interests of the Community industry.
Seetõttu on meetmete jätkumine ühenduse tootmisharu huvides.
Interests of importers (traders)
Importijate (ettevõtjate) huvid
The cooperating importers of potash were generally against the prolongation of the anti-dumping measures.
Koostööd teinud kaaliumkloriidi importijad üldiselt ei poolda dumpinguvastaste meetmete kehtivuse pikendamist.
They argued that the continuation of measures would have a negative influence by cutting the links to their traditional suppliers, in particular if undertakings would not be continued.
Nende väitel oleks meetmete jätkumisel negatiivne mõju, kuna seetõttu katkeksid sidemed tavapäraste tarnijatega, seda eriti hinnakohustustest loobumise korral.
They also argued that the Community producers could, if duties are prolonged, develop a dominant position on the Community market, thus reducing free competition within the Community to a minimum which would drive up prices in the Community further.
Samuti väitsid nad, et tollimaksude jätkumise korral võivad ühenduse tootjad saada ühenduse turul liidripositsiooni, vähendades seega ühendusesisest vaba konkurentsi miinimumini, mis tõstaks veelgi hindu ühenduses.
One importer, however, argued that the present situation with measures in force guarantees a correct development of the market.
Siiski väitis üks importija, et praegu jõusolevad meetmed tagavad turu õiglase arengu.
Consequently, this importer requested that the anti-dumping measures are maintained.
Seega palus kõnealune importija dumpinguvastaste meetmete jätkumist.
Whereas in the EU-15 most of the potash from the countries concerned was imported under the IPR, enlargement undertakings allowed duty-free imports from the countries concerned under certain conditions.
Kui EL 15-s imporditi suurem osa kaaliumkloriidi kõnealustest riikidest seestöötlemisega seotud soodustuste süsteemi alusel, siis võimaldasid laienemiskohustused teatavatel tingimustel kõnealustest riikidest maksuvaba importi.
Moreover, imports from other third countries remained at a rather stable level, at 15 % of market share.
Import muudest kolmandatest riikidest jäi üsna stabiilsele tasemele 15 % turuosaga.
There was thus substantial competition on the Community market and there is no reason to expect that this would change.
Ühenduse turul oli seega märkimisväärne konkurents ja pole põhjust oodata, et see muutub.
The argument concerning the alleged dominant position of the Community industry has therefore to be rejected.
Ühenduse tootmisharu liidripositsiooni puudutavad väited tuleb seega tagasi lükata.
Subsequent to disclosure of the findings, a number of interested parties insisted that the continuation of the measures would create an anti-competitive situation, whereby the Community industry would enjoy a dominant position.
Pärast uurimistulemuste avaldamist väitsid mitmed huvitatud isikud, et meetmete jätkamine tekitaks konkurentsi moonutava olukorra, mille korral ühenduse tootmisharul oleks liidripositsioon.
In this respect, it is to be noted that no indication was found during the investigation that the existence of the measures, apart from reducing the effects of injurious dumping, has significantly modified the competitive situation in favour of the Community industry.
Siinkohal tuleb märkida, et uurimine ei tuvastanud, et (välja arvatud dumpingu kahjustava mõju kärpimine) meetmete olemasolu oleks konkurentsi märkimisväärselt mõjutanud ühenduse tootmisharu kasuks.
On the contrary, imports from the countries concerned have even increased and imports from other third countries continue to represent a substantial share of the Community market.
Vastupidiselt sellele on import asjaomastest riikidest hoopiski kasvanud ja import kolmandatest riikidest hõlmab endiselt olulise osa ühenduse turust.
Therefore, no element seems to indicate that a continuation of the measures could cause a deterioration of the competitive situation in the Community market.
Seega ei ole mingeid märke sellest, et meetmete jätkuva kohaldamise korral konkurentsitingimused ühenduse turul halveneks.
As regards the alleged difficult access for traders to imported potash, this claim was not substantiated.
Väidet müüjate raskendatud juurdepääsu kohta imporditud kaaliumkloriidile ei põhjendatud.
Thus, this claim had to be rejected.
Seetõttu tuli see väide tagasi lükata.
It should also be noted that importers (traders) of potash often also import other products.
Tuleb samuti märkida, et kaaliumkloriidi importijad (ettevõtjad) impordivad sageli ka muid tooteid.
Although some importers focus their business on potash, for other importers the potash business accounts for as little as 10 % of their business.
Kuigi mõned importijad on keskendanud oma äritegevuse kaaliumkloriidile, moodustab teistel kaaliumkloriidi import kõigest 10 % äritegevusest.
In addition, importers currently focusing on potash have indicated that they could switch their focus to other products demanded by their customer base, primarily other fertilisers.
Lisaks sellele on hetkel kaaliumkloriidile keskendunud importijad mõista andnud, et nad keskenduksid vajaduse korral teistele klientide poolt nõutud toodetele, eeskätt teistele väetistele.
Subsequent to disclosure of the findings, however, one importer and one importers’ association claimed that certain importers are heavily depending on imports of potash from Belarus and would hardly be able to switch to other sources of supply in case the measures were maintained.
Pärast uurimistulemuste avaldamist väitsid üks importija ja üks importijate ühendus, et teatavad importijad sõltuvad suuresti Valgevenest pärit kaaliumkloriidi impordist ning ilmselt ei suuda meetmete säilitamise korral muid tarneallikaid kasutusele võtta.
It was found, however, that a shift to other sources of supply, e.g. the Community industry or imports from countries other than Belarus, is indeed a possibility available to importers.
Siiski leiti, et muud tarneallikad, nagu näiteks ühenduse tootmisharu või import muudest riikidest kui Valgevene, on importijatele kättesaadavad võimalused.
Although this shift may have some impact on the economic and financial results of these importers, it is considered that their level of profitability would not be affected so substantially as to undermine their long term viability.
Kuigi tarneallikate muutmine võib mõjutada kõnealuste importijate majandus- ja finantsolukorda, arvatakse, et see ei mõjuta nende kasumlikkust sedavõrd, et kahjustuks nende elujõulisus pikas perspektiivis.
In view of all arguments brought forward by importers, it is concluded that the effects of the anti-dumping measures on the financial situation of importers are relatively limited.
Võttes arvesse kõiki importijate esitatud väiteid, jõutakse järeldusele, et dumpinguvastaste meetmete mõju importijate finantsolukorrale on võrdlemisi väike.
Indeed, on the basis of the verified questionnaire replies, it was found that the profitability of the importers has not been negatively influenced by the existing anti-dumping measures so far.
Ka küsimustiku kontrollitud vastuste põhjal tõdeti, et kehtivad dumpinguvastased meetmed ei ole senini importijate kasumlikkust negatiivselt mõjutanud.
There are no reasons to believe that this situation would substantially change if measures are maintained.
Seega ei ole põhjust uskuda, et selline olukord meetmete jätkudes muutuks.
It is therefore concluded that a continuation of the measures would not have a substantial impact on the situation of importers (traders).
Seega võib järeldada, et meetmete jätkumine ei mõjutaks oluliselt importijate (ettevõtjate) olukorda.
Interests of users
Tarbijate huvid
Farmers
Talunikud
No cooperation was obtained from the direct users of potash as a fertiliser (farmers), although their representative organisation received a questionnaire.
Kaaliumkloriidi kui väetise otsetarbijatega (talunikega) koostööd ei saavutatud, kuigi nende esindusorganisatsioon sai küsimustiku.
One farmer’s association of a Member State, however, argued that anti-dumping duties would harm the position of the farmers in a competitive market where import prices of inputs like fertilisers are regulated while prices of imported foodstuffs are not.
Ühe liikmesriigi talunike liit väitis siiski, et dumpinguvastased tollimaksud kahjustaksid talunike seisundit tiheda konkurentsiga turul, kus reguleeritakse sisendite, nt väetiste, impordihindu, reguleerimata samas importtoiduainete hindu.
This argument has to be rejected because anti-dumping measures do not deal with overall questions concerning agricultural policy.
See väide tuleb tagasi lükata, sest dumpinguvastased meetmed ei tegele üldiste põllumajanduspoliitiliste küsimustega.
Anti-dumping investigations only aim at re-establishing a situation of fair trade following an act of injurious dumping.
Dumpinguvastase uurimise eesmärgiks on vaid õiglase kaubanduse taaskehtestamine kahjuliku dumpingu järel.
In the absence of any other substantial argument and of any indication that the existing anti-dumping measures would have had a negative effect on farmers, it is to be concluded that the continuation of anti-dumping duties will not have a major negative impact for farmers.
Kuna muid märkimisväärseid väiteid ei esitatud ja puuduvad tõendid olemasolevate dumpinguvastaste meetmete mõju kohta talunikele, järeldatakse, et dumpinguvastaste tollimaksude jätkumine ei avalda talunikele negatiivset mõju.
Fertiliser manufacturers
Väetisetootjad
The users submitting questionnaire replies were all fertiliser manufacturers who buy potash from the Community industry and also import it from the countries concerned or from third countries.
Kõik küsimustikule vastanud tarbijad olid väetisetootjad, kes ostavad kaaliumkloriidi ühenduse tootmisharult ning impordivad seda ka asjaomastest riikidest või muudest kolmandatest riikidest.
For them, potash is a raw material for producing fertilisers that often consist of three different nutrients: nitrogen, phosphate and potash (NPK-fertilisers or compound fertiliser).
Nende jaoks on kaaliumkloriid selliste väetiste tootmise tooraine, mis koosnevad sageli kolmest erinevast toitainest: lämmastikust, fosfaadist ja kaaliumkloriidist (NPK-väetised ehk liitväetised).
This means that potash is one of the cost elements for their final products, representing between 15 and 30 % of the production cost.
See tähendab, et neile on kaaliumkloriid lõpptoote üheks hinnaelemendiks, mis jääb tavaliselt 15 % ja 30 % vahele toote maksumusest.
During the period considered the production costs of fertilisers containing potash significantly decreased in 2002 and 2003, followed by a moderate increase during the IP, without reaching the levels prevailing in 2001.
Vaadeldud ajavahemiku vältel alanesid kaaliumkloriidi sisaldavate väetiste hinnad oluliselt aastatel 2002 ja 2003, millele järgnenud uurimisperiood tõi kaasa mõõduka tõusu, jõudmata siiski 2001. aasta tasemele.
It can therefore be concluded that the anti-dumping measures on potash did not have a significant impact on the cost structure of the fertiliser manufacturers.
Seega võib järeldada, et kaaliumkloriidi dumpinguvastased meetmed ei mõjutanud oluliselt väetisetootjate hinnastruktuuri.
Most of these users argued in the same manner against the continuation of measures as the importers.
Suurem osa tarbijatest oli sarnaselt importijatele meetmete jätkumise vastu.
However, one fertiliser producer pointed out that it would be in its interest to have potash producers both inside and outside the Community also in the future.
Siiski rõhutas üks oluline väetisetootja, et kaaliumkloriidi tootjate olemasolu tulevikus nii ühenduse sees kui ka väljaspool ühendust oleks tema huvides.
As the competing fertiliser producers in third countries do not pay anti-dumping duties on their purchases of potash, the Community fertiliser manufacturers also claimed that they are unable to compete with the prices of the final product offered by their foreign competitors.
Kuna konkureerivad kolmandate riikide väetisetootjad ei maksa kaaliumkloriidi ostu pealt dumpinguvastaseid tollimakse, väitsid ühenduse väetisetootjad, et neil pole võimalik võistelda välismaiste konkurentide pakutava lõpptoote hindadega.
In this respect, it should be noted, however, that the Community fertiliser manufacturers have the possibility to import under IPR, i.e. without paying anti-dumping duties.
Siinkohal tuleb mainida, et ühenduse väetisetootjatel on võimalik importida eksporditurgudelt seestöötlemisega seotud soodustuste süsteemi alusel, st ilma dumpinguvastaseid tollimakse maksmata.
Furthermore, it is recalled that other sources of supply exist, both in third countries not subject to anti-dumping measures, and in the Community.
Lisaks sellele tuleb meenutada, et on olemas ka muud tarneallikad, seda nii kolmandates riikides, mille suhtes dumpinguvastaseid meetmeid ei kohaldata, kui ühenduse sees.
Moreover, the investigation has not shown that these users were unable to compete with imported compound fertilisers on the Community market.
Samuti ei näidanud uurimine, et need tarbijad ei suudaks konkureerida imporditud liitväetistega ühenduse turul.
On the basis of the above, it is concluded that measures have not had a significant negative impact on the situation of users.
Eeltoodust järeldub, et meetmed ei ole avaldanud olulist negatiivset mõju tarbijate olukorrale.
Indeed, the impact of the measures on the profitability of the fertiliser manufacturers during the period considered was minimal and no elements have been put forward indicating that this would change if measures were maintained.
Meetmete mõju väetisetootjate kasumlikkusele vaadeldud ajavahemiku vältel oli minimaalne ning esile pole toodud ühtegi seika, mis kinnitaks olukorra muutumist meetmete säilitamisel.
It is therefore concluded that the interests of users are not such as to prohibit the continuation of measures.
Seega võib järeldada, et tarbijahuvidest lähtuvalt ei tuleks meetmete jätkumist peatada.
Consequences for competition on the Community market
Tagajärjed ühenduse turu konkurentsile
The measures in their current form clearly have had a stabilising effect on the Community industry which was able to exit the loss making period and regain a moderately profitable situation.
Meetmetel oma praegusel kujul on olnud selgelt stabiliseeriv toime ühenduse tootmisharule, millel on õnnestunud välja tulla kahjumiperioodist ning taastada keskmiselt kasumlik olukord.
This development would not have been possible without measures.
Selline areng poleks olnud meetmeteta võimalik.
However, this could not prevent a further concentration of the market as evidenced by the take-over of two Community producers by the ICL Group from Israel.
Siiski ei saa see ära hoida edaspidist turu koondumist, nagu näitas Iisraeli kontsern ICL kaht ühenduse tootjat üle võttes.
Moreover, there was a close-down of the French potash industry in 2001 because the mines were exhausted.
Lisaks lõpetati 2001. aastal Prantsusmaal kaaliumkloriidi tootmine, sest kaevandused olid ammendatud.
It was argued by importers and users that this development led practically to a duopoly on the EU market, holding a combined market share in excess of 70 %, in the EU-15 even in excess of 80 %.
Importijate ja tarbijate väitel viis selline areng praktiliselt duopolini EL turul, kui kaks ettevõtet omavad kokku üle 70 % turuosa, EL 15 puhul isegi üle 80 %.
Therefore, it was argued that the current measures have affected the market in a way that has impeded competition.
Seetõttu väideti, et kehtivad meetmed on konkurentsi takistades turgu mõjutanud.
This argument has to be rejected, as the current measures have allowed the Community industry to maintain its operations and partially recover from the effects of injurious dumping.
See väide tuleb tagasi lükata, kuna hetkel kehtivad meetmed on võimaldanud ühenduse tootmisharul oma tegevus säilitada ning osaliselt taastuda kahjuliku dumpingu mõjudest.
In absence of measures, it is likely that competition would have been reduced even more since the Community producers would have been forced to close down potash production.
Meetmeteta oleks konkurents suure tõenäosusega veelgi vähenenud, sest ühenduse tootjad oleksid olnud sunnitud lõpetama kaaliumkloriidi tootmise.
Therefore, the continuation of measures prevents a further reduction of competition by allowing the Community industry to survive and remain competitive.
Seega hoiab meetmete säilitamine ära edasise konkurentsi vähenemise, muutes ühenduse tootmisharu jätkusuutlikuks ning konkurentsivõimeliseks.
Moreover, it is also recalled that the presence of a number of other competitors on the Community market from third countries, as well as from the countries concerned has ensured competition on the Community market and there is no reason to presume that this would change if measures are maintained.
Lisaks tuleb meenutada, et arvukate kolmandate riikide ja asjaomaste riikide muude konkurentide kohalolek ühenduse turul on kindlustanud konkurentsi ning pole põhjust eeldada, et selline olukord meetmete säilitamisel muutuks.
Having analysed the various interests involved, it is concluded that, on the one hand, a continuation of the anti-dumping measures is likely to result in a stable and predictable development for the Community potash market, which will allow the Community industry to further recover and remain competitive under fair conditions of competition.
Analüüsides erinevate osapoolte huvisid, jõuti järeldusele, et kaaliumkloriidi dumpinguvastaste meetmete jätkumine viib tõenäoliselt stabiilse ja prognoositava arenguni ühenduse kaaliumkloriidi turul, mis võimaldab ühenduse tootmisharul veelgi taastuda ja jääda ausa konkurentsi tingimustes konkurentsivõimeliseks.
On the other hand, leaving the Community industry without adequate protection against the dumped imports would most probably wipe out its small profitability gained in recent years and lead to a serious deterioration of its situation.
Kui ühenduse tootmisharu jäetaks piisava kaitseta dumpingimpordi eest, muudaks see ilmselt olematuks viimaste aastate väikese kasumi ning halvendaks olukorda tõsiselt.
In fact, should the measures lapse, the Community industry would in all likelihood be forced to abandon the market step by step and a larger part of the market would be taken over by the Belarusian and Russian exporters, leaving an ever limited choice of sources of potash for importers, farmers and users in the Community.
Juhul kui meetmed kaotavad kehtivuse, tuleb ühenduse tootmisharul turult tõenäoliselt samm-sammult lahkuda ning Valgevene ja Venemaa eksportijad võtaksid üle suurema turuosa, jättes ühenduse kaaliumkloriidi importijatele, talunikele ja lõpptarbijatele veelgi väiksema valikuvõimaluse.
Therefore, the price advantage for importers, which would result from allowing the anti-dumping measures to lapse, is by far outweighed by the benefits to the Community industry resulting from the continuation of measures against the injurious dumping.
Seega on dumpinguvastaste meetmete säilitamise korral ühenduse tootmisharu eelised hulga kaalukamad kui importijate hinnaeelised dumpinguvastaste meetmete lõpetamise korral.
