It has been alleged that the injury suffered by the Community industry is due to the royalties payable to the licence holder, Royal Philips Electronics Corporation, per unit produced, since this leads to a cost increase with which the imported products are allegedly not burdened and which could not been passed on to the customers.
Trdilo se je, da je vzrok za škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti, licenčnina na izdelano enoto, ki jo industrija Skupnosti plačuje imetniku licence Royal Philips Electronics Corporation, saj vodi do povečanja stroškov, s katerimi uvoženi izdelki domnevno niso obremenjeni in jih ni mogoče prenesti na potrošnike.
The technique to produce CD-Rs is patented.
Proizvodni postopek CD-ROM-ov je patentiran.
The patent-holders are Sony Corporation, Taiyo Yuden and Royal Philips Electronics Corporations.
Imetniki patentov so Sony Corporation, Taiyo Yuden in Royal Philips Electronics Corporations.
The latter is authorized by the former two companies to grant licenses (‘CD-R Disc Patent License Agreement (Joint)’) and to collect royalties due from any licensing agreement.
Slednjega sta dve bivši družbi pooblastili, za podeljevanje licenc („CD-R Disc Patent License Agreement (Joint)“) in pobiranje licenčnin iz vsakega licenčnega sporazuma.
The cost of royalties would typically be around 5 EUR-cents per unit produced (USD 0,06).
Strošek licenčnine je običajno približno 0,05 EUR na izdelano enoto (USD 0,06).
It should be noted that the cost of royalty payable indeed appears significant as compared to an average sales price during the investigation period, i.e. 30 %.
Treba je opozoriti, da je strošek licenčnine, ki se plača v primerjavi s povprečno prodajno ceno med obdobjem preiskave, tj. 30 %, dejansko pomemben.
However, the investigation revealed, that although the Community industry had signed a licensing agreement with Philips, it had apparently refused to pay royalties to Philips at the level set in the licensing agreement.
Vendar je preiskava pokazala, da je industrija Skupnosti, čeprav je s Philipsom podpisala licenčni sporazum, zavrnila plačevanje licenčnin Philipsu po stopnji, določeni v licenčnem sporazumu.
To this end, the Community industry was member of the Federation of Interested Parties in fair Competition in the Optical Media sector (‘FIPCOM’) which has in February 2006 reached an agreement with Royal Philips Electronics Corporations to pay a new lower rate of royalties.
V ta namen je industrija Skupnosti, ki je članica Federacije zainteresiranih strank za pošteno konkurenco v sektorju optičnih medijev (Federation of Interested Parties in fair Competition in the Optical Media sector („FIPCOM“)), ki je februarja 2006 z Royal Philips Electronics Corporations dosegla sporazum o plačilu nove nižje stopnje licenčnin.
Still, it is noted that the Community industry has not yet paid (as of May 2006) the royalties due.
Vendar je treba opozoriti, da industrija Skupnosti (do maja 2006) še ni plačala zapadlih licenčnin.
To conclude, it appeared that, should the Community industry had paid the royalties payable in accordance with the licensing agreement signed by it, this may well had contributed to the negative financial performance, assuming that it would not have been able to pass on these costs to its customers.
Sklene se, da če bi industrija Skupnosti plačala licenčnine v skladu s podpisanim licenčnim sporazumom, bi to lahko prispevalo k negativnemu finančnemu uspehu, pod pogojem, da ne bi bilo možnosti zadevnih stroškov prenesti na svoje potrošnike.
However, since the Community industry was found not to pay, consequently royalties could not have played a part in the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Vendar, ker je bilo ugotovljeno, da industrija Skupnosti licenčnin ne plačuje, te niso mogle vplivati na škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
Conclusion on Causation
Sklepna ugotovitev o vzročni zvezi
It was established above that there is a link between dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega je bilo sklenjeno, da obstaja vzročna povezava med dampinškim uvozom in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
It has also been concluded above that the injury suffered by the Community industry may, to a significant extent, be attributed to imports from other third countries (especially imports from India) and to the overall decrease of EC consumption.
Poleg tega je bilo sklenjeno, da sta škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti, lahko v znatni meri povzročila uvoz iz tretjih držav (zlasti uvoz iz Indije) in zmanjšanje skupne potrošnje v ES.
These reasons appear not to be able to break the causal link between dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Community industry, but have significantly contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry, thus severely weakening the causal link established above between the dumped imports and the injurious situation of the Community industry.
Zadevni razlogi se ne štejejo za zadostne za prekinitev vzročne zveze med dampinškim uvozom in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti, vendar so znatno pripomogli k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti, in tako znatno oslabili vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom in škodljivimi razmerami industrije Skupnosti.
It has further been examined whether compelling reasons exist that could lead to the conclusion that it would not be in the Community interest to impose anti-dumping measures on the imports from the countries concerned.
Nadalje se je proučilo, ali obstajajo nujni razlogi, ki bi lahko pripeljali do sklepa, da uvedba protidampinških ukrepov za uvoz iz zadevnih držav ne bi bila v interesu Skupnosti.
For this purpose and in accordance with Article 21(1) of the basic Regulation, the determination of Community interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, i.e. those of the Community industry, the importers/traders, the distributors, the retailers and the end-users (associations as well as end-consumers).
V ta namen in v skladu s členom 21(1) osnovne uredbe je določitev interesa Skupnosti temeljila na presoji vseh različnih vpletenih interesov tj. tistih, ki zadevajo industrijo Skupnosti, uvoznike/trgovce, distributerje, trgovce na drobno in končne uporabnike (tako združenja kot končne potrošnike) zadevnega izdelka.
The Commission contacted a significant number of interested parties to obtain their views.
Komisija je, da bi pridobila njihovo mnenje, vzpostavila stik s številnimi zainteresiranimi strankami.
In addition to the Community industry, representatives of all the major sales brands on the market such as Verbatim, Maxell, Philips, TDK and Sony as well as some representative retailers such as Carrefour, Tesco, Metro-Group, including Media-Saturn, Fnac and El Corte Inglés have been heard.
Poleg industrije Skupnosti so bili zaslišani še predstavniki glavnih prodajnih znamk na trgu, kot so Verbatim, Maxell, Philips, TDK in Sony ter nekateri predstavniki trgovcev na drobno, kot so Carrefour, Tesco, Metro-Group, vključno z Media-Saturn, Fnac in El Corte Inglés.
All importers, distributors, whole-sellers or retailers have expressed opposition to any imposition of measures.
Vsi uvozniki, distributerji, trgovci na debelo ali na drobno so nasprotovali uvedbi kakršnih koli ukrepov.
Following the imposition of anti-dumping measures on imports of CD-Rs originating in Taiwan (and of the imposition of countervailing measures on imports of CD-Rs originating in India), the Community industry, as constituted in this proceeding, had a market share of 2 %.
Po uvedbi protidampinških ukrepov na uvoz CD-ROM-ov s poreklom iz Tajvana (in uvedbi izravnalnih ukrepov na uvoz CD-ROM-ov s poreklom iz Indije) je imela industrija Skupnosti, opredeljena v tem postopku, 2-odstotni tržni delež.
Given this remote market share, it is considered that even if measures were imposed, the Community industry would in all likelihood not be in a position to raise its prices to a sufficient level.
Glede na ta majhen tržni delež se šteje, da uvedba ukrepov po vsej verjetnosti ne bi dvignila cen na zadostno raven.
The complainant has argued that the negative prospects for the Community industry in the preceding recital would be inconsistent with the reasoning in the Council Regulation (EC) No 1050/2002 imposing definitive anti-dumping measures on imports of CD-Rs originating in Taiwan.
Pritožnik je trdil, da negativna pričakovanja za industrijo Skupnosti v uvodni izjavi (103) ne bi bila skladna s smislom Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 1050/2002 o uvedbi dokončnih protidampinških dajatev na uvoz CD-ROM-ov s poreklom iz Tajvana.
In comparison to the situation in 2000 (which was the investigation period for the anti-dumping investigation leading to the adoption of Council Regulation (EC) No 1050/2002), two important differences have emerged:
V primerjavi z razmerami iz leta 2000 (obdobje preiskave za protidampinško preiskavo, ki je vodila do sprejetja Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 1050/2002) je prišlo do dveh pomembnih sprememb:
whereas the market share of the Community industry in the previous investigation was 12,6 % (consisting of 9 companies), the market share of the Community industry in the present investigation was limited to 2 % (consisting of one sole company).
medtem ko je bil tržni delež industrije Skupnosti (sestavljalo jo je 9 družb) v prejšnji preiskavi 12,6 %, je bil tržni delež industrije Skupnosti (sestavlja jo ena sama družba) v trenutni preiskavi omejen na 2 %.
In view of the fact that the market share of the Community industry is only one sixth of the market share it held in 2000, consisting only of one sole company (following the exclusion of a number of Community manufacturers which have been found to have imported themselves), the more negative assessment of the prospects for the Community industry in this investigation is fully reasonable,
Glede na dejstvo, da je tržni delež industrije Skupnosti samo ena šestina tržnega deleža iz leta 2000, da industrijo Skupnosti sestavlja ena sama družba (po izvzetju številnih proizvajalcev Skupnosti, za katere je bilo ugotovljeno, da so sami uvozniki), je negativnejša ocena pričakovanj v zvezi z industrijo Skupnosti povsem utemeljena;
by the IP, the product concerned is considered to have reached a mature stage in its life cycle and is treated as a commodity at the retail level.
do OP je zadevni izdelek dosegel zrelo fazo življenjskega cikla in se ga šteje kot dobrino na maloprodajni stopnji.
This has been confirmed by the distributors and retailers that co-operated in the investigation.
To so potrdili tudi distributerji in trgovci na drobno, ki so sodelovali v preiskavi.
As seen in recital (65) above, consumption of CD-Rs have decreased by 7 percentage points since 2003 as alternative storage facilities (hard discs, USB-sticks, Mp3-players, etc.) have become more accessible and more attractive for end-consumers.
Kot je razvidno iz uvodne izjave (65) zgoraj, se je potrošnja CD-ROM-ov po letu 2003, ko so alternativni mediji za shranjevanje podatkov (trdi diski, USB ključi, MP3-predvajalniki, itd.) za končne potrošnike postali dostopnejši in privlačnejši zmanjšala, za 7 odstotnih točk.
The technological development in the market of media storage devices has been found to be fast and new media storage products have the advantage (in comparison to CD-Rs) of bigger storage capacity which, in the case of flash memory sticks, is combined with small sizes.
Tehnološki razvoj na trgu medijev za shranjevanje podatkov je hiter in novi izdelki shranjevalnih medijev imajo v primerjavi s CD-ROM-i zaradi večje zmogljivosti shranjevanja in v primeru spominskih ključev tudi zaradi majhnosti.
In view of the changed circumstances laid down in the preceding recital, it is considered fully consistent with the basic Regulation that the prospects for the Community industry in this investigation are assessed differently in comparison to the reasoning set out in Council Regulation (EC) No 1050/2002.
Glede na spremenjen okoliščine, navedene v uvodni izjavi (105), se šteje v celoti skladno z osnovno uredbo, da so pričakovanja za industrijo Skupnosti v tej preiskavi ocenjena drugače v primerjavi kot utemeljitve iz Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 1050/2002.
The complainant has further argued that some of the non-cooperating producers that have ceased their production during or after the end of the IP could resume their production should measures be introduced.
Pritožnik je nadalje trdil, da bi nekateri nesodelujoči proizvajalci, ki so med in po koncu OP ustavili svojo proizvodnjo, z njo ob uvedbi ukrepov lahko ponovno začeli.
However, in the absence of information directly from these non-cooperating producers that would confirm these alleged intentions, or other evidence substantiating the allegation, this argument has to be rejected.
Vendar pa je brez neposrednih informacij teh nesodelujočih proizvajalcev, ki bi potrdili te domnevne namere, ali drugih dokazov, ki bi jih podkrepili, te trditve treba zavrniti.
It is also noted that even if these companies were to resume production, their production would in all likelihood not be very substantial as compared to the volumes imported from the countries concerned.
Prav tako je treba opozoriti, da proizvodnja teh družb, če bi z njo ponovno začele, v primerjavi z obsegom proizvodnje iz zadevnih držav najverjetneje ne bi predstavljala pomembnega deleža.
A number of parties have further argued that, should measures be introduced, the resulting cost increase would have to be borne by one or several levels in the distribution chain (thereby significantly decreasing their respective margins), or passed on to the consumers (thereby perhaps affecting the overall consumption of CD-Rs negatively), or shared between both.
Številne stranke so tudi trdile, da bi morali stroške, nastale zaradi uvedbe ukrepov, nositi eden ali več členov distribucijske verige (s tem bi se znatno znižala njihova marža) ali bi stroške prevzeli potrošniki (kar bi morda negativno vplivalo na skupno potrošnjo CD-ROM-ov) ali pa bi jih nosila oba.
The likely reaction of importers, distributors or retailers to the cost increase following the imposition of measures would depend on the situation in each Member State.
Najverjetnejši odziv uvoznikov, distributerjev ali trgovcev na drobno na zvišanje stroškov, ki bodo nastali zaradi sprejetja ukrepov, bo odvisen od razmer v vsaki državi članici.
In some Member States, the demand for CD-Rs is indeed already under pressure from the mentioned ‘special levies’ on recordable media (a tax which increases the retail price significantly for the consumer).
V nekaterih državah članicah je povpraševanje po CD-ROM-ih že pod pritiskom navedenih „posebnih dajatev“ na snemalne medije (davek, ki znatno zviša maloprodajno ceno za potrošnika).
In this case, the consumers of CD-Rs would possibly not be ready to pay more as a result of anti-dumping duties as the retail price is already perceived as high.
V tem primeru potrošniki CD-ROM-ov najbrž ne bi bili pripravljeni plačati več zaradi protidampinških dajatev, saj se že maloprodajna cena dojema kot visoka.
The full cost of measures would in all likelihood therefore have to be borne by the distribution chain in order to avoid that consumers turn even more increasingly to other means of media storages such as hard discs and flash memory sticks.
Skupne stroške ukrepov bi tako najverjetneje morala prevzeti distribucijska veriga, da potrošniki ne bi še bolj posegali po drugih medijih shranjevanje podatkov, kot so trdi diski in spominski ključi.
As the mark-up of the importers/wholesalers in these countries can be estimated at around 4 %, the imposition of anti-dumping duties would significantly decrease the already small margin.
Ker se pribitek uvoznikov/trgovcev na debelo v teh državah lahko oceni na okoli 4 %, bi sprejetje protidampinških dajatev znatno znižalo že tako nizke marže.
Conversely, in Member States with the lowest (or absence of) special levies, it is more likely that a substantial part of the cost increase will be passed on to consumers.
V skladu s tem pa bodo v državah članicah z nižjimi posebnimi dajatvami (ali brez le-teh) najverjetneje precejšen delež zvišanja stroškov občutili potrošniki.
Therefore, the relative effect of anti-dumping measures would be the greatest there, since the price increase would be relatively higher.
Zato bi bil relativni vpliv protidampinških ukrepov tam največji, saj bi zvišanje cen bilo relativno višje.
As a result, consumption might further decrease, as consumers would have an incentive to turn to substitution products.
Zato bi se lahko še naprej znižala potrošnja, saj bi bili potrošniki začeli posegati po nadomestnih izdelkih.
It follows from the above that the price strategy of the importers, distributors and retailers will vary depending on the situation in each Member State.
Iz zgoraj navedenega sledi, da se bo strategija oblikovanja cen uvoznikov, distributerjev in trgovcev na drobno spreminjala glede na razmere v posamezni državi članici.
Nonetheless, it is apparent that all of them will suffer from the introduction of anti-dumping measures, either by way of decreased margins or by way of decreased sales volumes.
Vendar pa je jasno, da bodo zaradi uvedbe protidampinških ukrepov vsi oškodovani, bodisi z znižanjem marže bodisi z zmanjšanjem obsega prodaje.
Similarly, to the extent that the cost increase of anti-dumping measures is passed on the consumers, the latter will also be negatively affected.
Podobno bodo oškodovani tudi potrošniki, če se bodo stroški, nastali zaradi uvedbe ukrepov, prenesli nanje.
It has also been argued that the situation of the Community industry is the result of abusive price behaviour by certain dominant exporting producers, consisting in pursuing a strategy of below-cost prices which has prevented the Community industry from building up any significant market presence.
Trdili so tudi, da so razmere v industriji Skupnosti posledica zlorab cene nekaterih prevladujočih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki z oblikovanjem cen pod ravnijo stroškov industriji Skupnosti onemogočajo, da bi bila v večji meri prisotna na trgu.
Firstly, it has to be noted that a corresponding decision or investigation concerning an abuse of dominance under the EC competition rules does not exist, nor has the complainant pointed to any respective decision under national competition rules.
Najprej je treba opozoriti, da v okviru pravil ES o konkurenci ni bilo sprejetih ustreznih sklepov ali izvedene preiskave v zvezi z zlorabo prevladujočega položaja niti ni pritožnik izpostavil tozadevnih sklepov v okviru nacionalnih pravil o konkurenci.
Secondly, the investigation has revealed a large number of operators in Europe and the world on the relevant product market.
Drugič, preiskava je pokazala, da je na zadevnem proizvodnem trgu veliko število nosilcev dejavnosti v Evropi in po svetu.
Within the context of this investigation, it has not been demonstrated that any of the operators, solely or jointly, holds a market share significant enough that this could likely be considered to constitute a dominant position.
V okviru te preiskave ni bilo dokazano, da bi imel kateri koli od nosilcev dejavnosti, sam ali skupaj z drugimi, dovolj velik tržni delež, da bi se zanj lahko štelo, da ima prevladujoči položaj.
Thirdly, there is no indication of any significant loss-making with the exporters concerned which would suggest that the exporters did pursue a strategy of selling below-cost prices.
Tretjič, predložena ni bila nobena navedba o kakršnem koli večjem poslovanju z izgubo z zadevnimi izvozniki, ki bi dokazovala, da so izvozniki oblikovali strategijo prodaje po cenah, nižjih od stroškov.
Moreover, while Article 21 of the basic Regulation indeed refers to the need to give special consideration to the need to remedy the trade distorting effects of injurious dumping and to restore effective competition, this particular provision has to be seen in the overall framework of the Community interest test as laid down in the aforementioned Article.
Čeprav člen 21 osnovne uredbe dejansko navaja, da je treba posebno pozornost nameniti potrebi po ublažitvi vplivov škodljivega dampinga na izkrivljanje trgovine in vzpostavitvi učinkovite konkurence, je treba to določbo, kakor je to opredeljeno v prej navedenem členu, razumeti v splošnem okviru proučitve interesa Skupnosti.
Thus the effects of imposing measures or not imposing measures on all parties concerned have to be examined and balanced.
Tako je treba proučiti in uravnotežiti učinke sprejetja ali nesprejetja ukrepov za vse stranke.
In this respect, it is recalled that there are a number of other exporters and producers in competition on the world market and to a certain extent also on the Community market.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da so si na svetovnem trgu in do neke mere tudi na trgu Skupnosti konkurenčni še številni drugi izvozniki in proizvajalci.
Even in a medium term perspective the Community industry would be unlikely to take full benefit of possible measures given that it is to be expected that other third countries would considerably increase their part on the Community market.
Morebitni ukrepi tudi srednjeročno najverjetneje ne bi koristili industriji Skupnosti v polni meri, glede na to, da se pričakuje, da bi druge tretje države znatno zvišale svoj delež na trgu Skupnosti.
On the basis of the above, it can be concluded that the imposition of measures would, on the one hand, have substantial negative effects on importers, distributors, retailers and consumers of the product concerned, while on the other hand, the Community industry is unlikely to obtain any significant benefits.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega se lahko sklene, da bi uvedba ukrepov po eni strani v precejšnji meri negativno vplivala na uvoznike, distributerje, trgovce na drobno in potrošnike zadevnega izdelka, po drugi strani industrija Skupnosti najverjetneje ne bi bistveno pridobila.
It is therefore considered that the imposition of measures would be disproportionate and against the Community interest.
Zato se šteje, da bi bila uvedba ukrepov nesorazmerna in v nasprotju z interesom Skupnosti.
TERMINATION OF THE PROCEEDING
ZAKLJUČEK POSTOPKA
In view of the conclusions on Community interest, the proceeding with regard to imports of CD-Rs from the countries concerned should be terminated.
Glede na sklepe v zvezi z interesom Skupnosti se postopek v zvezi z uvozom CD-ROM-ov iz zadevnih držav zaključi.
The complainant and all other interested parties were informed of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which the Commission intends to terminate this proceeding.
Pritožnik in vse druge zainteresirane stranke so bile obveščene o bistvenih dejstvih in premislekih, na podlagi katerih Komisija namerava zaključiti ta postopek.
Subsequently, the complainant made known its views which, however, were not of a nature to change the above conclusion,
Naknadno je pritožnik dal svoje mnenje, ki pa ni bilo tako, da bi se zaradi njega spremenili zgornji sklepi –
The anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of recordable compact discs (‘CD-R’) originating in the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong and Malaysia, falling within CN code ex85239010 (CN code since 1 January 2006) is hereby terminated.
Protidampinški postopek glede uvoza kompaktnih diskov („CD-ROM-a“) za snemanje s poreklom iz Ljudske republike Kitajske, Hongkonga in Malezije, uvrščenih pod oznako KN ex85239010 (oznaka KN od 1. januarja 2006) se zaključi.
The Decision shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Ta sklep začne veljati dan po objavi v Uradnem listu Evropske unije.
