LIKELIHOOD OF A CONTINUATION OR RECURRENCE OF DUMPING
U ispitnom postupku pokazalo se da sljedeći proizvodi imaju ista osnovna fizička i tehnička svojstva te iste osnovne namjene:
Preliminary remarks
predmetni proizvod,
In accordance with Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether dumping was currently taking place and whether or not the expiry of the existing measures would be likely to lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping.
proizvod koji proizvođači izvoznici proizvode i prodaju na domaćem tržištu NRK-a,
As mentioned in recitals (17) and (25), no Chinese exporting producer cooperated in the investigation.
proizvod koji proizvodi i prodaje odabrani proizvođač u SAD-u, koji je služio kao analogna zemlja,
Therefore, the Commission resorted to the use of facts available in accordance with Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
proizvod koji u Uniji proizvodi i prodaje industrija Unije.
The Chinese authorities and the known Chinese exporting producer were notified of the application of Article 18(1) of the basic Regulation and were given the opportunity to present their comments.
Komisija je zaključila da su ti proizvodi istovjetni proizvodi u smislu članka 1. stavka 4.
The Chinese exporting producer replied that it intended to partially cooperate in the investigation, by submitting comments on injury and causation.
Osnovne uredbe.
On this basis, in accordance with Article 18(1) of the basic Regulation, the findings in relation to the likelihood of continuation or recurrence of dumping set out below were based on facts available, in particular information in the request for the expiry review, submission by interested parties, and statistics available.
VJEROJATNOST NASTAVKA ILI PONAVLJANJA DAMPINGA
Dumping of imports during the review investigation period
Uvodne napomene
For the review investigation period, the statistical data show that only negligible volumes of CFP (less than 400 tonnes) were imported into the Union from the PRC.
U skladu s člankom 11. stavkom 2.
The Commission concluded that these quantities were not representative as they represented less than 1 % of the total imports of the product concerned into the Union.
Osnovne uredbe, Komisija je ispitala odvija li se trenutačno damping i je li vjerojatno da bi istek postojećih mjera doveo do nastavka ili ponavljanja dampinga.
Therefore no meaningful analysis of dumping based on the Chinese imports to the Union during the review investigation period could be made.
Kako je navedeno u uvodnim izjavama (17) i (25), u ispitnom postupku nije surađivao nijedan kineski proizvođač izvoznik.
The investigation therefore focused on the likelihood of a recurrence of dumping.
Stoga je Komisija upotrijebila raspoložive podatke u skladu s člankom 18.
Evidence of likelihood of recurrence of dumping
Osnovne uredbe.
The Commission analysed whether there was a likelihood of recurrence of dumping should the measures lapse.
Kineska nadležna tijela i poznati kineski proizvođač izvoznik obaviješteni su o primjeni članka 18. stavka 1.
The following elements were analysed: Chinese export prices to other destinations, the production capacity and spare capacity in the PRC, and the attractiveness of the Union market in relation to imports from the PRC.
Osnovne uredbe te su dobili priliku dostaviti primjedbe.
Exports to third countries
Kineski proizvođač izvoznik odgovorio je da namjerava djelomično surađivati u ispitnom postupku dostavljanjem primjedbi o šteti i uzročnosti.
Due to the unrepresentative volume of imports of CFP from the PRC to the Union (see recital (37)), the Commission concluded that data concerning sales of CFP from the PRC to third countries should be used to assess the likely level of export prices to the Union, should the measures be allowed to lapse.
Na temelju toga i u skladu s člankom 18. stavkom 1.
Dumping calculations were made using the prices for sales to third country customers, based on invoices provided by the applicant, as explained in recital (45) below.
Osnovne uredbe nalazi u pogledu vjerojatnosti nastavka ili ponavljanja dampinga utvrđeni u nastavku temeljili su se na raspoloživim podacima, osobito podacima iz zahtjeva za reviziju zbog predstojećeg isteka mjera, podnesku zainteresiranih strana i raspoloživim statističkim podacima.
Normal value
Damping uvoza tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije
According to Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation, normal value was determined on the basis of the price or constructed value in a market economy third country.
Iz statističkih podataka proizlazi da je u razdoblju ispitnog postupka revizije u Uniju iz NRK-a uvezen samo zanemariv obujam PFP-a (manje od 400 tona).
For this purpose, the USA was used as the analogue country, as explained in recitals (21) to (24).
Komisija je zaključila da te količine nisu reprezentativne jer su činile manje od 1 % ukupnog uvoza predmetnog proizvoda u Uniju.
The APP Group claimed that, after 11 December 2016, the Commission should apply the market economy methodology and calculate the normal value on the basis of Chinese domestic prices, and thus should not use the USA as analogue country.
Stoga nije bilo moguće provesti smislenu analizu dampinga na temelju kineskog uvoza u Uniju tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka.
In this regard, the Commission notes that it has no discretion on whether or not to apply the current rules as set out in the basic Regulation.
Ispitni postupak stoga je usmjeren na vjerojatnost ponavljanja dampinga.
This claim was therefore rejected.
Dokazi o vjerojatnosti ponavljanja dampinga
Export price
Komisija je analizirala postoji li vjerojatnost ponavljanja dampinga u slučaju isteka mjera.
In the absence of any cooperation from the Chinese exporting producers, the export price was based on facts available in accordance with Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Analizirani su sljedeći elementi: kineske cijene izvoza na druga odredišta, proizvodni kapacitet i rezervni kapacitet u NRK-u te privlačnost tržišta Unije u odnosu na uvoz iz NRK-a.
Different sources of information were consulted in order to establish the export price.
Izvoz u treće zemlje
In order to assess the likely level of export prices to the Union in the absence of measures, the most appropriate basis was found to be the invoices from Chinese exporting producers to third countries located close to the Union, i.e. Egypt, Russia, and Turkey, which were provided by the applicant, calculated on a weighted average basis.
Zbog nereprezentativnog obujma uvoza PFP-a iz NRK-a u Uniju (vidjeti uvodnu izjavu (37)), Komisija je zaključila da bi se za procjenu vjerojatne razine cijena izvoza u Uniju u slučaju da se dopusti da mjere isteknu trebali upotrijebiti podaci koji se odnose na prodaju PFP-a iz NRK-a trećim zemljama.
Comparison and adjustments
Izračuni dampinga izvršeni su upotrebom cijena za prodaju kupcima iz trećih zemalja na temelju računa koje je dostavio podnositelj zahtjeva, kako je objašnjeno u uvodnoj izjavi (45) u nastavku.
The weighted average normal value was compared with the weighted average export price of CFP, in accordance with Article 2(11) of the basic Regulation, both at ex-works level.
Uobičajena vrijednost
Where justified by the need to ensure a fair comparison, the Commission adjusted the normal value and the export price for differences affecting prices and price comparability, in accordance with Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation.
U skladu s člankom 2. stavkom 7. točkom (a) Osnovne uredbe, uobičajena vrijednost utvrđena je na temelju cijene ili izračunane vrijednosti u trećoj zemlji tržišnoga gospodarstva.
Adjustments were made for freight and transport costs.
U tu je svrhu kao analogna zemlja upotrijebljen SAD, kako je objašnjeno u uvodnim izjavama od (21) do (24).
Dumping margin
Grupacija APP tvrdila je da bi Komisija nakon 11. prosinca 2016. trebala primjenjivati metodologiju tržišnog gospodarstva i izračunati uobičajenu vrijednost na temelju kineskih domaćih cijena te da stoga ne bi trebala upotrijebiti SAD kao analognu zemlju.
The Commission compared the weighted average normal value with the weighted average export price in accordance with Article 2(11) and (12) of the basic Regulation.
U tom pogledu Komisija navodi da nema diskrecijsko pravo odlučivati o primjeni ili neprimjeni postojećih pravila kako su utvrđena Osnovnom uredbom.
On this basis, the weighted average dumping margin expressed as a percentage of the CIF Union frontier price was 58 %.
Stoga je ta tvrdnja odbačena.
Production capacity and spare capacity in the PRC
Izvozna cijena
Given the non-cooperation, production capacity and spare capacity in the PRC were established on the basis of facts available and in particular the information provided by the applicant, which included data from an independent industry intelligence information provider, in accordance with Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Budući da nijedan kineski proizvođač izvoznik nije surađivao, izvozna cijena temeljila se na raspoloživim podacima u skladu s člankom 18.
The production capacity of coated wood free paper in the PRC was 7629000 tonnes in the review investigation period [10], of which 40 % is the production of CFP [11].
Osnovne uredbe.
The total coated wood free production in the PRC had a capacity utilisation of 85 % [12] during the review investigation period resulting in a spare capacity of 1167000 tonnes, i.e. 32 % of total consumption of CFP in the Union.
Kako bi utvrdila izvoznu cijenu Komisija se koristila različitim izvorima informacija.
Under the assumption that only 40 % of this capacity would be used for CFP, the Chinese spare capacity of the product concerned was found to be around 13 % of total Union consumption.
Kako bi se procijenila vjerojatna razina cijena izvoza u Uniju u slučaju izostanka mjera, utvrđeno je da najprimjereniju osnovu čine računi kineskih proizvođača izvoznika trećim zemljama koje se nalaze u blizini Unije, tj.
Furthermore, the Commission found that it is simple for producers to switch production of other coated wood free products into the product concerned [13].
Egiptu, Rusiji i Turskoj, koje je dostavio podnositelj zahtjeva, izračunano na temelju ponderirane prosječne vrijednosti.
Should Chinese producers switch to CFP, this would result in an increase of 3877000 tonnes in production capacity, which is more than 100 % of total consumption in the Union (established at 3589694 tonnes).
Usporedba i prilagodbe
Even though the level of spare capacity of coated wood free paper is expected to decrease slightly by 4 %, Chinese domestic demand is expected to decrease by more than 10 % until 2021 [14].
Ponderirana prosječna uobičajena vrijednost uspoređena je s ponderiranom prosječnom izvoznom cijenom PFP-a u skladu s člankom 2. stavkom 11.
Based on the above, the Commission concluded that Chinese exporting producers have significant spare capacity which they could use to produce CFP to export to the Union market if measures were repealed.
Osnovne uredbe, obje na razini franko tvornica.
The Commission also found that this export potential could increase as a result of the expected decline in domestic demand in the PRC.
U slučajevima u kojima je to bilo potrebno kako bi se osigurala primjerena usporedba, Komisija je prilagodila uobičajenu vrijednost i izvoznu cijenu za razlike koje utječu na cijene i usporedivost cijena u skladu s člankom 2. stavkom 10.
Attractiveness of the Union market
Osnovne uredbe.
The investigation has demonstrated that Union demand for CFP remained substantial.
Provedene su prilagodbe za troškove vozarine i prijevoza.
Although the Union consumption declined over the period considered, the Union market remains the largest market in the world, accounting for 25 % — 30 % of global demand.
Dampinška marža
Based on the facts available, Chinese export prices to the third countries close to the Union were on average 7 % lower than the prices in the Union during the review investigation period.
Komisija je usporedila ponderiranu prosječnu uobičajenu vrijednost s ponderiranom prosječnom izvoznom cijenom u skladu s člankom 2. stavcima 11. i 12.
Such a difference of price is significant given the fact that the market for CFP is competitive and very price sensitive.
Osnovne uredbe.
Furthermore, the domestic demand in the PRC is forecast to decrease, suggesting a strong incentive to Chinese producers to find alternative markets to absorb the Chinese overcapacity.
Na temelju toga ponderirana prosječna dampinška marža izražena u postotcima cijena CIF-a na granici Unije iznosila je 58 %.
The USA market, another important market for CFP, remains unattractive for the PRC, because the USA has anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures in place against the PRC regarding the product concerned.
Proizvodni kapacitet i rezervni kapacitet u NRK-u
In this regard, the Government of the PRC claimed that the low level of imports from the PRC demonstrated that the Union market was not at all attractive to Chinese exporting producers.
S obzirom na nesuradnju, proizvodni kapacitet i rezervni kapacitet u NRK-u utvrđeni su na temelju raspoloživih podataka, a osobito informacija koje je dostavio podnositelj zahtjeva koje su uključivale podatke neovisnih pružatelja informacija o industriji u skladu s člankom 18.
It further submitted that according to Chinese export statistics the PRC exported in 2015 more CFP to three other countries (India, Japan, Thailand) and to non-Union European countries, which would demonstrate that these countries, where there are no trade defence measures in place, were more attractive.
Osnovne uredbe.
The Government of the PRC also submitted that the PRC is currently party to 14 FTA's with different trading partners and that it is negotiating even more.
Proizvodni kapacitet premazanog bezdrvnog papira u NRK-u iznosio je u razdoblju ispitnog postupka revizije 7629000 tona [10], od čega je 40 % činila proizvodnja PFP-a [11].
This would lead to more exports of CFP to the partner countries concerned.
Iskorištenost kapaciteta ukupne proizvodnje premazanih bezdrvnih proizvoda u NRK-u iznosila je 85 % [12] u razdoblju ispitnog postupka revizije, što je dovelo do rezervnog kapaciteta od 1167000 tona ili 32 % ukupne potrošnje PFP-a u Uniji.
As concerns the effect of the FTAs, the claim was made in respect of Chinese products in general and did not contain any evidence in respect of the product concerned.
Uz pretpostavku da bi se samo 40 % tog kapaciteta upotrijebilo za PFP, utvrđeno je da bi kineski rezervni kapacitet predmetnog proizvoda iznosio približno 13 % ukupne potrošnje u Uniji.
The claim was considered too broad and lacking corroborating evidence.
Nadalje, Komisija je utvrdila da je proizvođačima jednostavno prebaciti se s proizvodnje ostalih premazanih bezdrvnih proizvoda na proizvodnju predmetnog proizvoda [13].
In any case, as explained in recital (62) below, the information available to the Commission points in the opposite direction.
Ako bi se kineski proizvođači prebacili na PFP, to bi dovelo do povećanja proizvodnog kapaciteta od 3877000 tona, što je više od 100 % ukupne potrošnje u Uniji (koja je utvrđena u iznosu od 3589694 tona).
In fact, the Chinese exports of CFP to the Union dropped close to zero after the imposition of the original measures in 2010, which suggests that it was these measures that made the Union market unattractive for Chinese exports.
Iako se očekuje da će se razina rezervnog kapaciteta premazanog bezdrvnog papira blago smanjiti za 4 %, očekuje se da će se kineska domaća potražnja smanjiti za više od 10 % do 2021.
The removal of the measures would make the Union market attractive again.
[14].
These claims are therefore rejected.
Na temelju prethodno navedenoga Komisija je zaključila da kineski proizvođači izvoznici imaju znatan rezervni kapacitet koji bi u slučaju stvaljanju mjera izvan snage mogli upotrijebiti za proizvodnju PFP-a za izvoz na tržište Unije.
The information on file suggests that the Union market will remain the largest world market for CFP at least in the near future [15].
Iako se potrošnja Unije u razmatranom razdoblju smanjila, tržište Unije i dalje je najveće na svijetu i čini od 25 % do 30 % globalne potražnje.
The current investigation established that this producer stopped the production of CFP in 2011, so consequently imports from Switzerland almost disappeared.
Tržište SAD-a još je jedno važno tržište za PFP, ali i dalje nije privlačno NRK-u jer su u pogledu predmetnog proizvoda u SAD-u na snazi antidampinške i antisubvencijske mjere protiv NRK-a.
Furthermore, the relatively high level of exports of the Union industry does not undermine the conclusion that the Union market is attractive as for most of the period considered average prices achieved outside the Union, where the Union industry had to compete with dumped exports of CFP from the PRC, were below the average prices achieved in the Union.
Nadalje tvrdila je da je u skladu s kineskim statističkim podacima o izvozu NRK 2015. izvezao više PFP-a u druge tri zemlje (Indiju, Japan, Tajland) i europske zemlje koje nisu članice Europske unije, čime se pokazuje da su te zemlje, u kojima ne postoje mjere za zaštitu trgovine, bile privlačnije.
Conclusion on the likelihood of recurrence of dumping
S obzirom na učinak sporazuma o slobodnoj trgovini, tvrdnja je iznesena u pogledu kineskih proizvoda općenito i nije sadržavala nikakve dokaze o predmetnom proizvodu.
As mentioned in recitals (48) and (49), a comparison between Chinese export prices to third countries located close to the Union with the price in the analogue country market strongly supports a finding of likelihood of recurrence of dumping.
Tvrdnju se smatralo preopćenitom i bez dokaza koji bi je potkrijepili.
In addition, considering the significant production capacity available in the PRC, as well as spare capacity and the attractiveness of the Union market for exports, the Commission concluded that a repeal of the measures would likely result in increased exports of CFP from the PRC to the Union at dumped prices.
U svakom slučaju, kako je objašnjeno u uvodnoj izjavi (62) u nastavku, informacije koje je Komisija imala na raspolaganju upućuju na suprotno.
LIKELIHOOD OF A RECURRENCE OF INJURY
Štoviše, kineski izvoz PFP-a u Uniju pao je gotovo na nulu nakon uvođenja početnih mjera 2010., što upućuje da je tržište Unije postalo neprivlačno kineskim izvoznicima upravo zbog tih mjera.
Definition of the Union industry and Union production
Ukidanjem mjera tržište Unije ponovno bi postalo privlačno.
During the review investigation period, the like product was manufactured by 10 known producers, some of which are groups that own several paper mills.
Stoga su te tvrdnje odbačene.
They constitute the ‘Union industry’ within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the basic Regulation.
Grupacija APP priznala je da je europsko tržište tradicionalno važno tržište za PFP, ali je tvrdila da se njegova važnost smanjuje zbog stalnog smanjenja potražnje, dok je istodobno potražnja u ostalim zemljama u posljednjih nekoliko godina ostala stabilna ili se povećala.
The total Union production was established at around 4606000 tonnes during the review investigation period.
Tvrdila je i da neprivlačnost tržišta Unije dokazuju smanjenje uvoza iz ostalih zemalja nakon uvođenja mjera i visoka razina izvoza PFP-a koju proizvodi industrija Unije.
The companies that supported the review request represented more than 70 % of the total Union production in the review investigation period.
Unatoč sve manjoj potrošnji PFP-a u Uniji, tržište Unije i dalje je najveće tržište PFP-a na svijetu.
As indicated in recital (18), the Union producers selected in the sample represented more than 30 % of the total Union production of the like product.
Iz informacija iz spisa proizlazi da će tržište Unije barem u bliskoj budućnosti ostati najveće tržište za PFP [15].
