Having regard to the proposal submitted by the Commission after consulting the Advisory Committee,
ob upoštevanju predloga, ki ga je Komisija predložila po posvetovanju s svetovalnim odborom,
Following an expiry review, by Regulation (EC) No 964/2003 [2] (the original Regulation), the Council imposed, inter alia, definitive anti-dumping duties of 58,6 % on imports of tube or pipe fittings (other than cast fittings, flanges and threaded fittings), of iron or steel (not including stainless steel), with a greatest external diameter not exceeding 609,6 mm, of a kind used for butt-welding or other purposes, falling within CN codes ex73079311 (TARIC code 7307931199), ex73079319 (TARIC code 7307931999), ex73079930 (TARIC code 7307993098) and ex73079990 (TARIC code 7307999098) and originating in the People's Republic of China (PRC).
Po pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa je Svet z Uredbo (ES) št. 964/2003 [2] („prvotna uredba“) med drugim uvedel dokončne protidampinške dajatve v višini 58,6 % na uvoz pribora (fitingov) za cevi (razen za liti pribor (fitinge), prirobnice in pribor (fitinge) z navojem) iz železa ali jekla (razen nerjavečega jekla) z največjim zunanjim premerom do vključno 609,6 mm, kakršen se uporablja za varjenje ali druge namene, uvrščen pod oznake KN ex73079311 (oznaka TARIC 7307931199), ex73079319 (oznaka TARIC 7307931999), ex73079930 (oznaka TARIC 7307993098) in ex73079990 (oznaka TARIC 7307999098) in s poreklom iz Ljudske republike Kitajske („LRK“).
Initiation
Začetek postopka
The Commission had at its disposal sufficient prima facie evidence that the anti-dumping measures on imports of certain tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC were being circumvented by means of transhipment and incorrect declaration of origin via Indonesia.
Komisija je imela na voljo dovolj prima facie dokazov, da poteka izogibanje protidampinškim ukrepom za uvoz nekaterega pribora za cevi s poreklom iz LRK tako, da se blago pretovarja in nepravilno prijavlja kot s poreklom iz Indonezije.
Sufficient evidence for the opening of the proceeding concerning Indonesia could only be obtained by the Commission, by an inquiry with the customs authorities of a Member State, which showed that the goods were not originating in Indonesia.
Zadostne dokaze za uvedbo postopka, ki zadeva Indonezijo, je Komisija lahko pridobila samo s poizvedbo pri carinskih organih v eni izmed držav članic, ki je pokazala, da blago nima porekla iz Indonezije.
Therefore, the Commission decided to initiate on its own initiative an investigation according to Article 13 of the basic Regulation.
Zato se je Komisija odločila, da v skladu s členom 13 osnovne uredbe začne preiskavo na lastno pobudo.
Pursuant to some investigations carried out during 2003 by the customs authorities of one Member State, prima facie evidence was obtained, which showed in particular that regarding imports into that Member State, practices had been detected of shipments declared as originating in Indonesia, which had in fact been shipped and originating from the PRC.
Med nekaterimi preiskavami, ki so jih leta 2003 izvedli carinski organi ene izmed držav članic, so bili pridobljeni prima facie dokazi, ki še posebej glede uvoza v tisto državo članico nakazuje, da so pošiljke, prijavljene kot s poreklom iz Indonezije, bile pravzaprav poslane in izvirale iz LRK.
According to Eurostat data, imports declared as originating from Indonesia into this Member State represented two thirds of imports declared as originating in Indonesia into the Community during 2003.
V skladu s podatki Eurostata je v letu 2003 uvoz, prijavljen kot s poreklom iz Indonezije, v to državo članico predstavljal dve tretjini uvoza, prijavljenega kot s poreklom iz Indonezije v Skupnost.
The significant increase of imports, following the imposition of the anti-dumping measures on imports of tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC appeared to constitute a change in the pattern of trade, for which there was insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the existence of the anti-dumping duties on tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC.
Znaten porast uvoza, ki je sledil protidampinškim ukrepom, uvedenim za pribor za cevi s poreklom iz LRK, je predstavljal spremembo v vzorcu trgovanja, za katerega ni bilo drugih potrebnih razlogov ali ekonomske razlage, kot obstoj protidampinških dajatev na pribor za cevi s poreklom iz LRK.
Finally, it appeared that the remedial effects of the existing anti-dumping duties on imports of tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC were being undermined both in terms of quantities and prices and that dumping was taking place in relation to the normal values previously established for the tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC.
Slednjič, pokazalo se je, da je popravljalni učinek obstoječih protidampinških dajatev na uvoz pribora za cevi s poreklom iz LRK oslabljen v smislu količine in cene ter da se izvaja damping glede na normalne vrednosti, ki so bile predhodno ugotovljene za pribor za cevi s poreklom iz LRK.
The Commission therefore initiated on its own initiative an investigation by Regulation (EC) No 396/2004 [3] (the initiating Regulation) into the alleged circumvention of the anti-dumping measures imposed on imports of tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC by imports of tube or pipe fittings consigned from Indonesia, whether declared as originating in Indonesia or not and pursuant to Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of the basic Regulation, directed the customs authorities to register imports of tube or pipe fittings consigned from Indonesia, whether declared as originating in Indonesia or not, under CN codes ex73079311 (TARIC code 7307931193), ex73079319 (TARIC code 7307931993), ex73079930 (TARIC code 7307993093) and ex73079990 (TARIC code 7307999093) as from 4 March 2004.
Zato je Komisija v skladu z Uredbo (ES) št. 396/2004 [3] („začetna uredba“) na lastno pobudo začela preiskavo zaradi domnevnega izogibanja protidampinškim ukrepom za uvoz pribora za cevi s poreklom iz LRK z uvozom pribora za cevi, poslanega iz Indonezije, prijavljenega kot s poreklom iz Indonezije ali ne, in v skladu s členom 13(3) in 14(5) osnovne uredbe naložila carinskim organom, da od 4. marca 2004 registrirajo uvoz pribora za cevi, poslanega iz Indonezije, ki se prijavi kot izdelek s poreklom iz Indonezije ali ne, pod oznake KN ex73079311 (oznaka TARIC 7307931193), ex73079319 (oznaka TARIC 7307931993), ex73079930 (oznaka TARIC 7307993093) in ex73079990 (oznaka TARIC 7307999093).
The Commission advised the authorities of the PRC and Indonesia of the initiation of the investigation.
Komisija je organe LRK in Indonezije obvestila o začetku preiskave.
Questionnaires were sent to producers and exporters in the PRC (there was no known producer in Indonesia) as well as to importers in the Community known to the Commission from the investigation which led to the imposition of the existing measures on imports of tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC (the previous investigation).
Proizvajalcem in izvoznikom v LRK so bili poslani vprašalniki (v Indoneziji ni bilo znanih proizvajalcev), prav tako tudi uvoznikom v Skupnosti, za katere je Komisija vedela iz preiskave, ki je pripeljala do uvedbe obstoječih ukrepov na uvoz pribora za cevi s poreklom iz LRK („predhodna preiskava“).
Interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing within the time limit set in the initiating Regulation.
Zainteresirane stranke so dobile priložnost izraziti svoja stališča pisno ter zaprositi za zaslišanje v roku, ki je določen v začetni uredbi.
No producer or exporter in the PRC submitted a reply to the questionnaire and no producers or exporters in Indonesia made themselves known or submitted questionnaire replies.
Na vprašalnik ni odgovoril noben proizvajalec ali izvoznik iz LRK, prav tako pa se ni prijavil ali posredoval odgovorov na vprašalnik noben proizvajalec ali izvoznik iz Indonezije.
Three replies to the questionnaire were submitted by unrelated importers in the Community.
Tri odgovore na vprašalnik so posredovali med seboj nepovezani uvozniki iz Skupnosti.
One of the importers did not further cooperate.
Eden izmed uvoznikov sodelovanja ni nadaljeval.
The investigation period covered the period from 1 January 2003 to 31 December 2003 (IP).
Obdobje preiskave je trajalo od 1. januarja 2003 do 31. decembra 2003 („OP“).
Data from 2000 up to the IP were used to investigate the change in the pattern of trade.
Podatki od leta 2000 naprej do OP so se uporabili za preiskavo spremembe v vzorcu trgovanja.
No producers or exporters of tube or pipe fittings originating in Indonesia cooperated in the investigation.
V preiskavi ni sodeloval noben proizvajalec ali izvoznik pribora za cevi s poreklom iz Indonezije.
The authorities of Indonesia did not supply any additional information.
Indonezijski organi niso posredovali nobenih dodatnih informacij.
It was made clear to the authorities of Indonesia that non-cooperation may lead to the application of Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Indonezijskim organom je bilo pojasnjeno, da lahko nesodelovanje privede do uporabe člena 18 osnovne uredbe.
Three unrelated importers supplied a questionnaire reply.
Odgovor na vprašalnik so posredovali trije med seboj nepovezani uvozniki.
One importer, who had submitted a response to the questionnaire where necessary information for ascertaining the existence of circumvention lacked, did not clarify the deficiencies pointed out by the Commission in a deficiency letter as a reaction to its initial questionnaire reply and was therefore declared non-cooperating.
Eden izmed uvoznikov, ki je posredoval odgovor na vprašalnik, v katerem so manjkali potrebni podatki za ugotavljanje obstoja izogibanja, ni pojasnil vzroka za pomanjkljivosti, na katere je opozorila Skupnost v pozivu k dopolnitvi, ki je bil poslan kot odziv na odgovor na prvotni vprašalnik, in je zato bil razglašen za nesodelujočega.
The imports of the two other importers represented 5,5 % of total imports declared as originating in Indonesia during the IP.
Uvoz drugih dveh uvoznikov je predstavljal 5,5 % vsega uvoza, prijavljenega kot s poreklom iz Indonezije, v OP.
Overall, it can therefore be concluded that there was no cooperation from producers and very low cooperation from importers.
Na splošno je zato mogoče zaključiti, da s strani proizvajalcev ni bilo sodelovanja, pri uvoznikih pa je bila stopnja sodelovanja zelo nizka.
No Chinese producers or exporters cooperated in the investigation.
V preiskavi ni sodeloval noben kitajski proizvajalec ali izvoznik.
It was made clear to these non-cooperating companies that non-cooperation may lead to the application of Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Nesodelujočim družbam je bilo pojasnjeno, da lahko nesodelovanje privede do uporabe člena 18 osnovne uredbe.
The product concerned by the alleged circumvention is tube or pipe fittings (other than cast fittings, flanges and threaded fittings), of iron or steel (not including stainless steel), with a greatest external diameter not exceeding 609,6 mm, of a kind used for butt-welding or other purposes, currently classifiable within CN codes ex73079311 (TARIC code 7307931193), ex73079319 (TARIC code 7307931993), ex73079930 (TARIC code 7307993093) and ex73079990 (TARIC code 7307999093).
Izdelek, za katerega domnevno poteka izogibanje, je pribor za cevi (razen liti pribor, prirobnice in pribor z navojem) iz železa ali jekla (razen nerjavečega jekla) z največjim zunanjim premerom do vključno 609,6 mm, kakršen se uporablja za varjenje ali druge namene, trenutno uvrščen pod oznake KN ex73079311 (oznaka TARIC 7307931193), ex73079319 (oznaka TARIC 7307931993), ex73079930 (oznaka TARIC 7307993093) in ex73079990 (oznaka TARIC 7307999093).
Given the very low level of cooperation it must be inferred that the tube or pipe fittings exported to the Community from the PRC and those consigned from Indonesia have the same basic physical and chemical characteristics and have the same uses.
Ob izjemno nizki stopnji sodelovanja je mogoče sklepati, da imata pribor za cevi, ki se izvaža v Skupnost iz LRK, in tisti, ki se pošilja iz Indonezije, enake osnovne fizične in kemične lastnosti ter uporabo.
They are therefore to be considered as like products within the meaning of Article 1(4) of the basic Regulation.
Zato se ju šteje za podobna izdelka v smislu člena 1(4) osnovne uredbe.
As already stated the prima facie evidence suggested that the change in the pattern of trade stemmed from transhipment and an incorrect declaration of origin of the product, as imports were declared as originating in Indonesia, whereas evidence existed that the goods originated in the PRC.
Kot je navedeno zgoraj, nakazujejo prima facie dokazi, da izvira sprememba v vzorcu trgovanja iz pretovarjanja in nepravilnega prijavljanja porekla izdelka, saj se uvozi prijavijo, kot s poreklom iz Indonezije, čeprav obstajajo dokazi, da ima blago poreklo v LRK.
As no Indonesian company cooperated in the investigation, exports from Indonesia to the Community had to be established on the basis of the facts available pursuant to Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Ker v preiskavi ni sodelovala nobena indonezijska družba, je treba izvoze iz Indonezije v Skupnost ugotavljati na podlagi razpoložljivih dokazov v skladu s členom 18 osnovne uredbe.
Eurostat data, which were the most appropriate information available in such a situation, were therefore used to establish the export prices and quantities from Indonesia to the Community.
Podatki Eurostata, ki so najbolj primerna razpoložljiva informacija v tovrstnih situacijah, so se zato uporabili za ugotavljanje izvoznih cen in količin iz Indonezije v Skupnost.
Imports of tube or pipe fittings declared as originating in Indonesia increased from 0 tonnes in 2000 to 866 tonnes in the IP.
Uvoz pribora za cevi s prijavljenim poreklom iz Indonezije je narasel iz 0 ton leta 2000 na 866 ton v OP.
These imports from Indonesia commenced in January 2002, at a time when the previous investigation was ongoing.
Uvozi iz Indonezije so se začeli januarja 2002, to je v času, ko je potekala predhodna preiskava.
Imports into the Community of tube or pipe fittings from the PRC increased from 44 tonnes in 2000 to 287 tonnes in the IP.
Uvoz pribora za cevi iz LRK v Skupnost je narasel iz 44 ton leta 2000 na 287 ton v OP.
However, this increase in exports from the PRC must be read together with the level of exports achieved in the period under consideration of the original investigation [4].
Vendar pa je treba porast izvoza iz LRK obravnavati skupaj s stopnjo izvoza, doseženo v zadevnem obdobju izvirne preiskave [4].
Indeed, the volume of the Chinese exports in the IP amounted to less than 10 % of the volume exported in the period under consideration of the original investigation.
Obseg kitajskih izvozov je namreč v OP znašal manj kot 10 % obsega izvoza v zadevnem obdobju izvirne preiskave.
In the light of the above, and in the absence of any contrary evidence, it was found that imports consigned from Indonesia were compensating for some of the previous imports from the PRC.
Ob upoštevanju zgoraj navedenega in zaradi pomanjkanja nasprotnih dokazov je bilo ugotovljeno, da so uvozi, poslani iz Indonezije, nadomestilo za nekatere predhodne uvoze iz LRK.
Insufficient due cause or economic justification
Odsotnost potrebnih razlogov ali ekonomske razlage
In the absence of cooperation by any parties in Indonesia and the PRC, and of any contrary evidence, it is concluded that, given the coincidence in time with the previous investigation which led to the imposition of the existing measures, the change in the pattern of trade stemmed from the existence of the anti-dumping duty rather than from any other sufficient due cause or economic justification within the meaning of Article 13(1), second sentence of the basic Regulation.
Ker ni sodelovala nobena stranka iz Indonezije ali iz LRK in zaradi pomanjkanja kakršnih koli nasprotnih dokazov, je treba glede na časovno sovpadanje s predhodno preiskavo, ki je privedla do uvedbe obstoječih ukrepov, sklepati, da je spremembo v vzorcu trgovanja povzročil obstoj protidampinških dajatev, ne pa drug potreben razlog ali ekonomska razlaga v smislu drugega stavka člena 13(1) osnovne uredbe.
It is therefore concluded that no reasonable grounds other than avoiding the existing anti-dumping duties on imports of tube or pipe fittings originating in the PRC, could be established for the change in the pattern of trade observed.
Zato se sklepa, da v zvezi z ugotovljeno spremembo vzorca trgovanja ni mogoče ugotoviti drugih upravičenih razlogov, kot izogibanje obstoječim protidampinškim dajatvam na uvoz pribora za cevi s poreklom iz LRK.
Undermining of the remedial effects of the duty in terms of the prices and/or the quantities of the like products
Oslabitev popravljalnih učinkov dajatve v smislu cen in/ali količin podobnih izdelkov
Based on the trade flow analysis made above, it was found that a change in the pattern of Community imports is linked to the fact that there were anti-dumping measures in place.
Na osnovi zgoraj izvedene analize trgovinskih tokov je bilo ugotovljeno, da je sprememba v vzorcu uvozov v Skupnost povezana z obstojem protidampinških ukrepov.
Imports declared as originating in Indonesia were absent of the Community market until January 2002.
Uvozi s prijavljenim poreklom iz Indonezije se na trgu Skupnosti niso pojavljali vse do januarja 2002.
After said date imports declared as originating in Indonesia substantially increased, amounting to 866 tonnes during the IP.
Po navedenem datumu se je uvoz izdelkov, prijavljenih kot s poreklom iz Indonezije, znatno povečal in znašal 866 ton v OP.
This volume represents 1,7 % of the Community consumption during the IP of the previous investigation.
Ta obseg predstavlja 1,7 % porabe Skupnosti med OP predhodne preiskave.
With regard to prices of the products consigned from Indonesia and in the absence of cooperation from exporters and of any contrary evidence, Eurostat data revealed that average export prices from Indonesia during the IP were even lower than the average export prices established for the PRC in the previous investigation and therefore lower than the prices of the Community industry.
Glede na cene izdelkov, poslanih iz Indonezije, in zaradi nesodelovanja izvoznikov ter v odsotnosti kakršnega koli nasprotnega dokaza, so podatki Eurostata pokazali, da je bila povprečna izvozna cena iz Indonezije v času OP še nižja od povprečne izvozne cene, ugotovljene za LRK v predhodni preiskavi, in s tem tudi nižja od cen industrije Skupnosti.
It has been established that during the IP average export prices from Indonesia were around 34 % below the average export prices from the PRC.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je bila med OP povprečna izvozna cena iz Indonezije za okoli 34 % nižja od povprečne izvozne cene iz LRK.
On the basis of the above, it is concluded that the change in trade flows, together with the abnormally low prices of exports from Indonesia have undermined the remedial effects of the anti-dumping measures in terms of the quantities and prices of the like products.
Na osnovi zgoraj navedenega se sklepa, da je sprememba trgovinskih tokov skupaj z nenormalno nizkimi cenami za izvoze iz Indonezije oslabila popravljalni učinek protidampinških ukrepov v smislu količin in cen podobnih izdelkov.
Evidence of dumping in relation to the normal values previously established for like or similar products
Dokaz o dampingu glede na predhodno ugotovljene normalne vrednosti za podobne ali sorodne izdelke
In order to determine whether evidence of dumping could be found with respect to the product concerned exported to the Community from Indonesia during the IP, export prices established on the basis of Eurostat data were used pursuant to Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Da bi ugotovili, ali je mogoče najti dokaze za damping v zvezi z zadevnim izdelkom, ki se je izvažal v Skupnost iz Indonezije med OP, so bile uporabljene izvozne cene, ugotovljene na osnovi podatkov Eurostata v skladu s členom 18 osnovne uredbe.
Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires evidence of dumping in relation to the normal values previously established for the like or similar products.
Člen 13(1) osnovne uredbe zahteva dokaz o dampingu glede na predhodno ugotovljene normalne vrednosti za podobne ali sorodne izdelke.
In the previous investigation, Thailand was found to be the appropriate market economy analogue country for the PRC for the purpose of establishing normal value.
V predhodni preiskavi je bilo ugotovljeno, da je Tajska primerljiva država s tržnim gospodarstvom, ustrezna za primerjavo z LRK zaradi ugotovitve normalne vrednosti.
For the purpose of a fair comparison between the normal value and the export price, due allowance, in the form of adjustments, was made for differences which affect prices and price comparability.
Za pošteno primerjavo med normalno vrednostjo in izvozno ceno so bile narejene ustrezne prilagoditve za razlike, ki vplivajo na cene in njihovo primerljivost.
These adjustments were made in accordance with Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation in respect of transport and insurance.
Prilagoditve so bile izvedene v skladu s členom 2(10) osnovne uredbe v zvezi s prevozom in zavarovanjem.
In the absence of other information relating to these factors, the data used in the previous investigation was used.
Ker drugih podatkov v zvezi s temi dejavniki ni bilo, so bili uporabljeni podatki iz predhodne preiskave.
In accordance with Articles 2(11) and 2(12) of the basic Regulation, the comparison of a weighted average normal value as established in the previous investigation and the weighted average of export prices during this investigation's IP, expressed as a percentage of the CIF price at the Community frontier duty unpaid, showed dumping for the imports of tube or pipe fittings consigned from Indonesia.
V skladu s členom 2(11) in (12) osnovne uredbe je primerjava tehtanega povprečja normalne vrednosti, ugotovljene v predhodni preiskavi, ter tehtanega povprečja izvozne cene v OP te preiskave, izražena v odstotkih CIF cene na mejah Skupnosti, carina neplačana, pokazala damping pri uvozu pribora za cevi, poslanega iz Indonezije.
The dumping margin found, expressed as a percentage of the cif price at the Community frontier duty unpaid, was 60,5 %.
Ugotovljena stopnja dampinga, izražena v odstotkih CIF cene na mejah Skupnosti, carina neplačana, je bila 60,5 %.
In view of the above finding of circumvention within the meaning of Article 13(1), of the basic Regulation, the existing anti-dumping measures on imports of the product concerned originating in the PRC should be extended to the same product consigned from Indonesia, whether declared as originating in Indonesia or not.
Glede na zgoraj ugotovljeno izogibanje v smislu člena 13(1) osnovne uredbe je treba obstoječe protidampinške ukrepe na uvoz zadevnih izdelkov s poreklom iz LRK razširiti na enake izdelke, poslane iz Indonezije, ki se prijavijo kot izdelki s poreklom iz Indonezije ali ne.
The duty extended should be the one established in Article 1(2) of the original Regulation.
Razširjena dajatev je dajatev, ki jo določa člen 1(2) prvotne uredbe.
In accordance with Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of the basic Regulation, which provides that any extended measures shall be applied against registered imports from the date of registration, the anti-dumping duty should be collected on imports of tube or pipe fittings consigned from Indonesia which entered the Community under registration imposed by the initiating Regulation.
V skladu s členoma 13(3) in 14(5) osnovne uredbe, ki določa, da je potrebno razširjene ukrepe uporabljati za registrirane uvoze od dneva registracije, se protidampinške dajatve pobirajo na uvoz pribora za cevi, poslanega iz Indonezije, ki je vstopil v Skupnost v okviru registracije, ki jo predpisuje začetna uredba.
The circumvention takes place outside the Community.
Izogibanje se vrši izven prostora Skupnosti.
