Firstly it should be noted that the investigation revealed that the footwear, imported from the countries concerned, competes at all levels, i.e. all ranges and types, with the footwear produced and sold by the Community industry, and that their sales channels are, overall, identical.
Najprej je treba opozoriti, da je preiskava pokazala, da obutev, uvožena iz zadevnih držav, na vseh ravneh, tj. vse kolekcije in vrste, konkurira obutvi, ki jo proizvaja in prodaja industrija Skupnosti, in da so njune prodajne poti v celoti enake.
The significant increase in volume of the dumped imports, which more than doubled during the period considered, coincided with the deterioration of the economic situation of the Community industry.
Znatno povečanje obsega dampinškega uvoza, ki se je več kot podvojil v obravnavanem obdobju, je sovpadlo s poslabšanjem gospodarskega položaja industrije Skupnosti.
This deterioration materialised amongst others, by a drop in production and sales volume of around 30 % during the same period.
To poslabšanje se je med drugim pokazalo v obliki padca obsega proizvodnje in prodaje za več kot 30 % v istem obdobju.
The surge of dumped imports came together with a significant price decrease of the corresponding average price.
S porastom dampinškega uvoza se je pojavilo znatno znižanje ustrezne povprečne cene.
Effectively, during the period under investigation, the average price of the dumped imports declined by 30 %.
Dejansko se je v obravnavanem obdobju povprečna cena dampinškega uvoza znižala za 30 %.
In a relatively transparent and very price sensitive market, where footwear is produced on orders, this had a double negative impact on the situation of the Community industry.
Na sorazmerno preglednem in cenovno zelo občutljivem trgu, kjer se obutev proizvaja po naročilu, je imelo to dvojen negativen vpliv na položaj industrije Skupnosti.
Firstly, it resulted in a depression of the Community industry prices, which decreased by around 8 % during the period considered.
Prva posledica je bil padec industrijskih cen Skupnosti, ki so se znižale za približno 8 % v obravnavanem obdobju.
Secondly, and more importantly, the low priced imports from those countries seriously affected the Community industry's order books, thus causing a negative effect on production, sales volume and employment.
Druga in pomembnejša posledica pa je bila, da je nizkocenovni uvoz iz držav resno ogrozil naročila in tako negativno vplival na proizvodnjo, obseg prodaje in zaposlenost.
The development of the Community industry's market share and that of the countries concerned, as shown below, is clearly illustrated.
Razvoj tržnega deleža industrije Skupnosti in zadevnih držav glede navedenega pove veliko. Njihov položaj se je razvil na naslednji način:
While the Community industry lost around nine percentage points of market share between 2001 and the IP, the countries concerned expanded by around 14 percentage points and this, during a period of relatively stable consumption.
Medtem ko je industrija Skupnosti izgubila približno 9 odstotnih točk tržnih deležev med letom 2001 in OP, so se tržni deleži zadevnih držav povečali za približno 14 odstotnih točk in to v obdobju sorazmerno stabilne porabe.
In view of the clearly established coincidence in time between, on the one hand, the surge of dumped imports at continuously decreasing prices and, on the other hand, the Community industry's loss of sales and production volume, decrease in market share and employment, and price depression, it is concluded that the dumped imports played a determining role in the injurious situation of the Community industry.
Glede na jasno ugotovljeno časovno sovpadanje med porastom dampinškega uvoza po vedno nižjih cenah na eni strani ter zmanjšanjem obsega prodaje in proizvodnje, padcem tržnega deleža, zaposlenosti in cen industrije Skupnosti na drugi strani se sklene, da je imel dampinški uvoz odločilno vlogo pri nastanku škodljivega položaja za industrijo Skupnosti.

Sales volume (000 pairs)
Obseg prodaje (000 parov)
The above table shows that the sales of the other Community producers on the Community market decreased by more than 70 million pairs during the period considered, a drop of more than 30 %.
Iz zgornje tabele je razvidno, da se je prodaja drugih proizvajalcev Skupnosti na trgu Skupnosti zmanjšala za več kot 70 milijonov parov v obravnavanem obdobju, kar je več kot 30-odstotni padec.
The corresponding market share has also decreased from 38,1 % in 2000 to 25,3 % during the IP.
Ustrezni tržni delež se je prav tako zmanjšal z 38,1 % leta 2000 na 25,3 % v OP.
Based on the information available, it is therefore concluded that the other Community producers were in a situation similar to that of the Community industry and did not cause any injury to the Community industry.
Na podlagi dostopnih informacij se zato sklene, da so bili drugi proizvajalci Skupnosti v podobnem položaju kot industrija Skupnosti in ji niso povzročili nobene škode.
Export performance of the Community industry
Izvoz industrije Skupnosti
Certain interested parties claimed that the poor economic situation of the Community footwear industry was due to a deterioration of its export performance.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da je slab gospodarski položaj obutvene industrije Skupnosti posledica poslabšanja njenega izvoza.
This allegation is based on the fact that in a report issued by the Community footwear industry, it is asserted that market access is a major problem for the sector in export markets and that a wide range of tariff and non-tariff barriers are still preventing the Community producers from exploiting their export potential.
Ta trditev temelji na dejstvu, da je v poročilu, ki ga je izdala obutvena industrija Skupnosti, navedeno, da je dostop do trga glavna težava tega sektorja na izvoznih trgih in da številne tarifne in netarifne ovire še vedno onemogočajo proizvajalcem Skupnosti, da bi izkoristili svoje izvozne možnosti.
In this context, it should firstly be noted that the injury analysis focuses on the situation of the Community industry on the Community market.
V tem okviru je treba najprej opomniti, da se analiza škode osredotoča na položaj industrije Skupnosti na trgu Skupnosti.
Therefore a deterioration of the export performance, if any, does not have any impact on most of the indicators analysed above, such as sales volume, market share and prices.
Zato morebitno poslabšanje izvoza ne vpliva na večino zgoraj analiziranih kazalnikov, kot so obseg prodaje, tržni deleži in cene.
In terms of the overall production volume, where the distinction between Community and outside Community market cannot be made, since footwear is produced on order, a decrease of sales on the Community market will necessarily translate into a declining production.
Na ravni celotnega obsega proizvodnje, kjer ni možno določiti razlike med trgom Skupnosti in trgom izven Skupnosti, ker se obutev proizvaja po naročilu, bo zmanjšanje prodaje na trgu Skupnosti nujno vplivalo na zmanjšanje proizvodnje.
Since the vast majority of the production is intended to be sold on the Community market, and even though export sales also decreased during the period considered, it is concluded that the major part of the decrease in production is related to injury suffered on the Community market, and not to decreasing exports.
Ker je večina proizvodnje namenjena za prodajo na trgu Skupnosti in čeprav se je izvozna prodaja prav tako zmanjšala v obravnavanem obdobju, se sklene, da je glavni del zmanjšanja proizvodnje povezan s škodo na trgu Skupnosti in ne z manjšim izvozom.
Finally, the assertion made by the Community producers, in fact, merely refers to prevention of exploitation of their export potential, and should therefore be seen as the inability to compensate decreasing sales on the Community market, i.e. where injury is being suffered, by increasing exports.
Nenazadnje se trditev proizvajalcev Skupnosti nanaša le na preprečevanje izkoriščanja njihovih izvoznih možnosti in bi se zato morala obravnavati kot nezmožnost, da bi nadomestili zmanjševanje prodaje na trgu Skupnosti, tj. kjer utrpijo škodo, z večanjem izvoza.
The claim was therefore rejected and it is concluded that the export performance of the Community industry did not cause any material injury.
Zato je bil zahtevek zavrnjen in sklene se, da izvoz industrije Skupnosti ni povzročil nobene materialne škode.
The imports from third countries were also examined.
Proučen je bil tudi uvoz iz tretjih držav.
The following tables show the development of the market share and the average prices of the countries each accounting for more than 2 % of the overall Community imports during the IP:
Naslednja tabela prikazuje razvoj tržnih deležev in povprečnih cen držav, ki predstavljajo več kot 2 % celotnega uvoza v Skupnost med OP:
Variance 2001/IP (% points)
Varianca 01/OP (odstotne točke)
Average prices (EUR/pair)
Povprečne cene (EUR/par)
Variance 2001/IP
Varianca 2001/OP
Individually, none of the countries listed above significantly increased their market shares during the period considered.
Posamično ni nobena od zgoraj navedenih držav znatno povečala svojih tržnih deležev v obravnavanem obdobju.
The absolute level of their market share remained far below that of the countries concerned, and they also developed differently.
Absolutna raven njihovih tržnih deležev je ostala močno pod ravnijo zadevnih držav, prav tako pa so se tudi različno razvili.
It should be recalled that the cumulated market share of the countries concerned increased substantially from 9,2 % in 2001 to 22,8 % during the IP.
Treba je opozoriti, da se je kumulativni tržni delež zadevnih držav bistveno povečal z 9,2 % leta 2001 na 22,8 % v OP.
With the exception of one country, the average unit prices of the other third countries decreased over the period considered.
Z izjemo ene države so se povprečne cene na enoto drugih tretjih držav v obravnavanem obdobju znižale.
However, they decreased to a lesser extent compared to the prices of the countries concerned, but especially their absolute price level during the overall period considered remained, with one exception, on average far above the price level of the dumped imports.
Vendar so se znižale v manjši meri kot cene zadevnih držav in zlasti njihova absolutna raven cen je v obravnavanem obdobju z eno izjemo ostala povprečno precej nad ravnijo cen dampinškega uvoza.
In the case of imports from Indonesia, prices were lower than those of imports from Vietnam in the IP, but this has to be seen against a declining market share for Indonesia as opposed to a hugely increasing one for Vietnam.
V primeru uvoza iz Indonezije so bile cene nižje kot cene uvoza iz Vietnama v OP, vendar je to treba obravnavati ob upoštevanju manjšanja tržnega deleža Indonezije v primerjavi s krepkim povečanjem tržnega deleža Vietnama.
During the IP, import prices from the above countries were on average 30 % higher than import prices from the countries concerned.
Med OP so bile uvozne cene iz zgornjih držav v povprečju 30 % višje kot uvozne cene iz zadevnih držav.
In addition, individually, the third country market shares did not increase similarly to that of the countries concerned.
Poleg tega se posamezno tržni deleži tretjih držav niso povečali tako kot tržni deleži zadevnih držav.
It can therefore even be considered that the other third countries had to follow the decreasing price trends of the countries concerned in order to maintain their level of market shares.
Zato se lahko celo šteje, da so morale druge tretje države slediti trendu nižanja cen zadevnih držav, da bi lahko obdržale svojo raven tržnih deležev.
For the above reasons, it is concluded that imports from other third countries did not materially affect the situation of the Community industry.
Iz zgornjih razlogov se sklene, da uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav ni bistveno vplival na položaj industrije Skupnosti.
Changes in the patterns of consumption and decline in demand
Spremembe vzorcev porabe in padec povpraševanja
It was claimed by importers that injury suffered by the Community footwear producers was caused by a decrease in demand in the footwear segment in which the traditional Community producers specialised.
Uvozniki so trdili, da je škodo, ki so jo utrpeli proizvajalci obutve Skupnosti, povzročilo zmanjšanje povpraševanja po tisti obutvi, za katero so specializirani tradicionalni proizvajalci Skupnosti.
Likewise certain exporting producers claimed that due to changing fashions, consumers nowadays are looking for low quality, disposable and mass marketed footwear.
Enako so nekateri proizvajalci izvozniki trdili, da zaradi spreminjajočih se modnih smernic porabniki dandanes iščejo nizkokakovostno in porabniško obutev za kratkotrajno uporabo.
In this respect, reference is made to section 2 above where it was concluded that all types of the product concerned and the like product were regarded as forming one single product and that footwear produced in the countries concerned and in the Community compete at all levels of the market.
V zvezi s tem je naveden sklic na oddelek 2 zgoraj, kjer je bilo sklenjeno, da se vse vrste zadevnih izdelkov in podobni izdelki štejejo kot en sam izdelek ter da je obutev, proizvedena v zadevnih državah in v Skupnosti, konkurenčna na vseh ravneh trga.
Any claim regarding certain types is therefore not relevant and the analysis should be carried out at the level of the product concerned and the like product, i.e. all types of footwear with uppers of leather as described in the relevant paragraph above.
Kakršni koli zahtevek v zvezi z določenimi vrstami zato ni ustrezen; analizo bi bilo treba izvesti na ravni zadevnega izdelka in podobnega izdelka, tj. vseh vrst obutve z zgornjim delom iz usnja, kot je opisano v ustreznem odstavku zgoraj.
As to the overall Community consumption for the footwear with uppers of leather, it remained relatively stable during the period considered.
Celotna poraba Skupnosti na področju obutve z zgornjim delom iz usnja je ostala sorazmerno stabilna v obravnavanem obdobju.
The claims were therefore rejected and it is concluded that injury was not caused by any decline of demand.
Zato so bili zahtevki zavrnjeni in sklenjeno je, da nobeno zmanjšanje povpraševanja ni povzročilo škode.
Various exporting producers and importers claimed that the injury suffered by the Community industry was caused by the appreciation of the EURO against the USD which led to significant import price decreases, since allegedly most Chinese and Vietnamese footwear is traded in American dollars (USD).
Različni proizvajalci izvozniki in uvozniki so trdili, da je škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti, povzročila povečana vrednost eura v primerjavi z ameriškim dolarjem, kar je povzročilo znatno znižanje uvoznih cen, saj se kitajska in vietnamska obutev domnevno večinoma prodajata v ameriških dolarjih.
It is recalled that the investigation has to establish whether the dumped imports (in terms of prices and volume) have caused material injury to the Community industry or whether such material injury was due to other factors.
Treba je opozoriti, da je treba s preiskavo ugotoviti, ali je dampinški uvoz (s cenami in obsegom) povzročil materialno škodo industriji Skupnosti ali je takšna materialna škoda nastala zaradi drugih dejavnikov.
In this respect, Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation states that it is necessary to show that the price level of the dumped imports cause injury.
V zvezi s tem člen 3(6) osnovne uredbe določa, da je treba dokazati, da raven cen dampinškega uvoza povzroča škodo.
It therefore merely refers to a difference between price levels, and there is thus no requirement to analyse the factors affecting the level of those prices.
Tako se nanaša le na razliko med ravnmi cen, analiza dejavnikov, ki vplivajo na raven omenjenih cen, pa ni potrebna.
In practice, the effect of the dumped imports on the Community industry's prices is essentially examined by establishing price undercutting, price depression and price suppression.
Dejansko se učinek dampinškega uvoza na cene industrije Skupnosti prouči predvsem tako, da se ugotovi nelojalno nižanje cen, padec cen in zajezitev cen.
For this purpose, the dumped export prices and the Community industry's sales prices are compared, and export prices used for the injury calculations may sometimes need to be converted into another currency in order to have a comparable basis.
V ta namen se primerjajo dampinške izvozne cene in prodajne cene industrije Skupnosti; izvozne cene, ki se uporabijo za izračun škode, je treba včasih za primerljivo osnovo pretvoriti v drugo valuto.
Consequently, the use of exchange rates in this context only ensures that the price difference is established on a comparable basis.
Zato uporaba menjalnih tečajev v tem okviru samo zagotovi, da se razlika v cenah ugotovi na primerljivi osnovi.
From this, it becomes obvious that the exchange rate can in principle not be another factor of the injury.
Iz tega je očitno, da menjalni tečaj načeloma ne more biti še en dejavnik škode.
The above is also confirmed by the wording of Article 3(7) of the basic Regulation, which refers to known factors other than dumped imports.
Zgoraj navedeno potrjuje tudi besedilo člena 3(7) osnovne uredbe, ki se nanaša na vse znane dejavnike razen dampinškega uvoza.
The list of the other known factors in this Article does not make reference to any factor affecting the price level of the dumped imports.To summarise, if the exports are dumped, and even if they benefited from a favourable development of exchange rates, it is difficult to see how the development of such exchange rate could be another factor causing injury.
Res je, da seznam drugih znanih dejavnikov v tem členu ne vsebuje nobenega dejavnika, ki vpliva na raven cene dampinškega uvoza. Skratka, če je izvoz dampinški in tudi če je imel korist od ugodnega razvoja menjalnih tečajev, ni jasno, kako bi lahko razvoj takšnega menjalnega tečaja bil še en dejavnik škode.
Thus, the analysis of the factors affecting the level of the prices of the dumped imports, be it exchange rate fluctuations or something else, cannot be conclusive and such analysis would go beyond the requirements of the basic Regulation.
Tako analiza dejavnikov, ki vplivajo na raven cen dampinškega uvoza, naj bodo to nihanja menjalnega tečaja ali kaj drugega, ne more biti prepričljiva in takšna analiza bi presegla zahteve osnovne uredbe.
In any event, and without prejudice of the above, even if exchange rate fluctuations had an effect on import prices, it would be impossible to separate and distinguish their impact since it is not precisely known to what extent imports from the countries concerned are traded in USD.
V vsakem primeru in brez poseganja v zgoraj navedeno bi bilo tudi, če bi nihanja menjalnega tečaja vplivala na uvozne cene, nemogoče ločiti in razlikovati njihov učinek, saj ni natančno znano, v kolikšni meri se uvoz iz zadevnih držav prodaja v ameriških dolarjih.
In addition the biggest importers hedge their USD financial transactions and it is therefore very difficult to determine what would be the relevant exchange-rate to be examined.
Poleg tega največji uvozniki zavarujejo svoje finančne transakcije v ameriških dolarjih in je zato zelo težko določiti ustrezni menjalni tečaj, ki ga je treba proučiti.
Lifting of the quota
Odprava kvote
Certain parties claimed that the lifting of the import quotas at the beginning of 2005 was also a cause of injury to the Community industry.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da je odprava uvoznih kvot na začetku leta 2005 prav tako povzročila škodo industriji Skupnosti.
In this respect, it is recalled that the quotas only applied to one of the two countries concerned and not all the products covered by this proceeding.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da so kvote zadevale le eno od obeh zadevnih držav in ne vseh izdelkov, zajetih v tem postopku.
In addition, the injury analysis has been established over a longer period, in this case between 2001 and the end of the IP, and does therefore not only refer to the post quota period, i.e. the first quarter 2005.
Poleg tega je analiza škode zajela daljše obdobje, v tem primeru obdobje od leta 2001 do konca OP, in se zato ne nanaša le na obdobje po odpravi kvot, tj. prva četrtina leta 2005.
Complainants have failed to modernise, are highly fragmented and have high labour costs
Pritožniki niso uspeli posodobiti svoje dejavnosti, so zelo razdrobljeni in imajo visoke stroške dela
Certain parties argued that the poor economic situation of the complainants is related to the fact that they did not modernise their production facilities and methods, and that the injury was caused by the fact that the sector is highly fragmented and not competitive compared to imports from low labour cost countries.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da je slab gospodarski položaj pritožnikov povezan z dejstvom, da niso posodobili svojih proizvodnih zmogljivosti in metod ter da je škodo povzročilo dejstvo, da je sektor zelo razdrobljen in nekonkurenčen v primerjavi z uvozom iz držav z nizkimi stroški dela.
Indeed, the Community footwear sector is highly fragmented and labour costs in the Community are higher than in the countries concerned.
Res je, da je obutveni sektor Skupnosti zelo razdrobljen in so stroški dela v Skupnosti višji kot v zadevnih državah.
The degree of fragmentation of the industry and the labour costs in the Community did not, however, increase during the period considered.
Vendar se stopnja razdrobljenosti industrije in stroški dela v Skupnosti v obravnavanem obdobju niso povečali.
In these circumstances, a causal link between those factors and the deterioration of the situation of the Community industry in the period considered cannot be established.
V teh okoliščinah ni mogoče vzpostaviti vzročne zveze med navedenimi dejavniki in poslabšanjem položaja industrije Skupnosti v obravnavanem obdobju.
EC footwear industries relocation of production
Premestitev proizvodnje obutvene industrije Skupnosti
The association of importers claimed that the relocation of EC producers to low-wage countries had contributed to the injury suffered by the Community footwear industry.
Združenje proizvajalcev je trdilo, da je premestitev proizvajalcev ES v države z nizkimi plačami prispevala k škodi, ki jo je utrpela obutvena industrija Skupnosti.
This allegedly resulted in lowering production and sales in the Community and entailed significant restructuring costs, thus affecting the financial situation of those companies.
To je domnevno povzročilo krčenje proizvodnje in prodaje v Skupnosti ter znatne stroške prestrukturiranja ter tako vplivalo na finančno stanje omenjenih družb.
It should be recalled, however, that the injury analysis specifically focuses on the development of the economic situation of the Community industry.
Vendar je treba opozoriti, da se analiza škode osredotoča izrecno na razvoj gospodarskega položaja industrije Skupnosti.
Since the producers that have delocalised production are, as already explained above, not even considered Community producers for the purposes of this investigation, thus not part of the Community industry, their situation has not been taken into consideration for the injury analysis.
Ker se proizvajalci, ki so premestili proizvodnjo, kot je že razloženo zgoraj, sploh ne štejejo kot proizvajalci Skupnosti za namene te preiskave in tako niso del industrije Skupnosti, se njihov položaj ni upošteval pri analizi škode.
The imports of the companies that have relocated their production have however been taken into consideration when examining the imports of the countries concerned or from the other third countries.
Vendar pa se je uvoz družb, ki so premestile svojo proizvodnjo, upošteval pri proučitvi uvoza iz zadevnih držav ali iz drugih tretjih držav.
