However, in view of (i) the absence of audited accounts for three of them, (ii) the substantial problems raised by the auditors themselves in their report for two others, and (iii) the significant remark made by the auditors concerning the last two companies, which clearly warns the users that their accounts do not comply with the generally accepted accounting principles; the submissions made by these seven companies did not contain any new elements that would permit the Commission services to revise their conclusions. The claims were therefore rejected.
Vendar glede na (i) dejstvo, da tri družbe niso predložile revidiranih računovodskih evidenc, (ii) znatne probleme, ki so jih izpostavili sami revizorji v svojem poročilu za dve drugi družbi, in (iii) izrecno opozorilo revizorjev obeh zgoraj navedenih družb, s katerim so bili uporabniki njunih evidenc jasno opozorjeni, da te niso v skladu s splošno sprejetimi računovodskimi načeli, utemeljitve, ki jih je predložilo teh sedem družb, niso vsebovale kakršnih koli novih prvin, zaradi katerih bi službe Komisije morale pregledati svoje sklepe, zato so bili zahtevki zavrnjeni.
As far as the third criterion is concerned, in view of the situation regarding the land use rights which do not correspond to market economy conditions but are still centrally determined by the authorities, in particular regarding price setting and price revision, all companies failed to demonstrate that there are no distortions carried over from the non-market economy system.
Kar zadeva merilo 3, nobena družba glede pravic do rabe zemljišč, ki ne ustrezajo pogojem tržnega gospodarstva, ampak jih še naprej centralno določajo organi oblasti, ni dokazala, da ni prišlo do izkrivljanj, prenesenih iz nekdanjega sistema netržnega gospodarstva, zlasti kar zadeva oblikovanje in revizijo cen.
Moreover, for three of these companies, distortions were also found to be carried over from the non-market economy system regarding, more particularly, the valuation of the assets.
Za tri od teh družb je bilo tudi ugotovljeno, da je prihajalo do izkrivljanj, prenesenih iz sistema netržnega gospodarstva, zlasti na področju vrednotenja sredstev.
The conclusions were contested by the companies which failed to provide new elements to substantiate their claims. The latter were therefore rejected.
Sklepe so spodbijale družbe, ki niso predložile novih elementov, s katerimi bi utemeljile svoje trditve, zato so bili zahtevki zavrnjeni.
The fourth and fifth criteria were found to be met by each of the eight companies.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je vseh osem družb izpolnilo merila 4 in 5.
It is also recalled that it is the Commission's consistent practice to examine whether a group of related companies as a whole fulfils the conditions for MES and, therefore, in cases where a subsidiary or any other company related to the applicant in Vietnam is a producer and/or a seller of the product concerned, the company is invited separately to complete a MES claim form.
Treba je opozoriti tudi, da je običajna praksa Komisije proučiti, ali skupina povezanih družb kot celota izpolnjuje pogoje za TGO in se zato v primeru, ko je hčerinska družba ali katera koli druga družba, povezana z vložnikom v Vietnamu, proizvajalec in/ali prodajalec zadevnega izdelka, družbo pozove, da ločeno predloži obrazec zahtevka za TGO.
In that respect, two companies did not provide an MES claim form for one of their related producers in Vietnam, so that it could not be established that the group as a whole fulfils all the conditions for MES.
Dve družbi nista predložili obrazec zahtevka za TGO za enega izmed svojih povezanih proizvajalcev v Vietnamu, tako da ni bilo mogoče ugotoviti, ali družba kot celota izpolnjuje pogoje za TGO.
It was consequently concluded that none of the companies fulfil all the conditions set out in Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da nobena od družb ne izpolnjuje pogoje iz člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe.
Pursuant to Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation, a country-wide duty, if any, is established for countries falling under that Article, except in those cases where companies are able to demonstrate that they meet all criteria set out in Article 9(5) of the basic Regulation.
V skladu s členom 2(7)(a) osnovne uredbe se za države, ki jih zajema naveden člen, vzpostavi dajatev na ravni države, če sploh, razen v primerih, ko lahko družbe dokažejo, da izpolnjujejo vsa merila iz člena 9(5) osnovne uredbe.
As far as the PRC is concerned, the exporting producers who requested MET also claimed IT in the event that they would not be granted MET.
Kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki, ki so zahtevali TGO, so zahtevali tudi IO za primer, da jim TGO ne bi bil odobren.
On the basis of the information available, it was found that these companies failed to demonstrate that they cumulatively meet all the requirements for IT as set forth in Article 9(5) of the basic Regulation.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij je bilo ugotovljeno, da te družbe niso mogle dokazati, da družba kot celota izpolnjuje vse zahteve za IO iz člena 9(5) osnovne uredbe.
In particular, it was established that since no producer demonstrated that it met the first criterion under the analysis of MET above because of de jure or de facto requirements to export all or a significant part of production, the producers' export quantities, and conditions and terms of sale were not freely determined, but rather on the basis of the administrative authorisation process fixed by articles of association and/or business licences of the sampled Chinese exporting producers.
Zlasti je bilo ugotovljeno, da zaradi dejstva, da ni noben proizvajalec v okviru zgornje analize dokazal, da je izpolnil merilo 1, ker so bili de jure ali de facto obvezani izvoziti bodisi vse ali znaten del proizvodnje, izvozne količine proizvajalca ter pogoji prodaje niso bili prosto določeni, temveč na podlagi dovoljenja uprave, ki ga določata statut in/ali poslovno dovoljenje vzorčenih kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov.
Consequently, all sampled Chinese exporting producers failed to demonstrate that they meet the requirements set out in Article 9(5)(b) of the basic Regulation, which requires de jure and de facto free determination of export sales.
Tako nihče od vzorčenih kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov ni mogel dokazati, da izpolnjuje merila iz člena 9(5)(b) osnovne uredbe, ki zahtevajo de jure in de facto prosto določanje izvoza.
Furthermore, the four companies not meeting the fifth criterion under the MET analysis were deemed not to meet the criterion set out in Article 9(5)(d) of the basic Regulation, i.e. exchange rate conversions at market rates.
Za štiri družbe, ki niso izpolnile merila 5 v okviru analize TGO, se je tudi štelo, da ne izpolnjujejo merila iz člena 9(5)(d) osnovne uredbe, tj. pretvorbe deviznih tečajev po tržnih stopnjah.
As far as Vietnam is concerned, the exporting producers who requested MET also claimed IT in the event that they would not to be granted MET.
Vietnamski proizvajalci izvozniki, ki so zahtevali TGO, so zahtevali tudi IO za primer, da jim TGO ne bi bil odobren.
On the basis of the information available, it was found that these companies did not meet all the requirements for IT as set forth in Article 9(5) of the basic Regulation.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij je bilo ugotovljeno, da te družbe niso izpolnile vseh zahtev za IO iz člena 9(5) osnovne uredbe.
In particular, it was established, as set out under the analysis of MET above, that for four companies, the export sales quantities were not freely determined by the company, but were fixed in the company's business licence.
Kot je opisano v analizi TGO zgoraj, je bilo zlasti ugotovljeno, da štiri družbe izvoznih količin niso določile same, ampak so bile določene s poslovnim dovoljenjem družbe.
For the two 100 % State-owned companies, it was considered that they failed to demonstrate that appropriate measures were taken to prevent State interference.
Za dve družbi, ki sta v stoodstotni lasti države, je bilo ugotovljeno, da nista mogli dokazati, da sta sprejeli ustrezne ukrepe za preprečitev vmešavanja države.
For the two remaining companies, it was found that they are linked to a third company which did not fulfil the requirements for IT as set forth in Article 9(5) of the basic Regulation for reasons of export sales restrictions and State involvement in its internal structure and decision-making process.
Za preostali dve družbi je bilo ugotovljeno, da sta povezani s tretjo družbo, ki ni izpolnila zahtev za IO iz člena 9(5) osnovne uredbe, in sicer zaradi omejitev izvoza in vmešavanja države v njihovo notranjo strukturo in odločanje.
As there would be a risk of circumvention were different duty rates to be applied to these three related companies, IT could not be granted to the former two companies.
Če bi za te tri povezane družbe veljale drugačne carinske tarife, bi obstajalo tveganje izogibanja ukrepom in tako zadevnima družbama IO ni mogel biti odobren.
According to Article 2(7) of the basic Regulation, in case of imports from non-market-economy countries and to the extent that MET could not be granted, for countries specified in Article 2(7)(b) of the basic Regulation, normal value has to be established on the basis of the price or constructed value in an analogue country.
V skladu s členom 2(7) osnovne uredbe se v primeru uvoza iz držav z netržnim gospodarstvom in če TGO ni mogoče odobriti, za države, določene v členu 2(7)(b) osnovne uredbe, normalna vrednost določi na podlagi cene ali računsko določene vrednosti v primerljivi državi.
In the notice of initiation the Commission indicated its intention to use Brazil as an appropriate analogue country for the purpose of establishing normal value for the PRC and Vietnam and invited the interested parties to comment thereon.
V obvestilu o začetku je Komisija navedla, da namerava uporabiti Brazilijo kot ustrezno primerljivo državo za določitev normalne vrednosti za LRK in Vietnam, zainteresirane stranke pa so bile pozvane, da predložijo svoje pripombe v zvezi s tem.
Comments were received from the cooperating exporting producers suggesting Thailand, India or Indonesia as being a more suitable analogue country than Brazil.
Komisija je prejela pripombe sodelujočih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki so menili, da so Tajska, Indija ali Indonezija ustreznejše primerljive države kot Brazilija.
The main arguments claimed against Brazil were that Brazil does not possess similarities to PRC and Vietnam in terms of socio-economic and cultural developments, or per capita GNP, that Brazil hardly produces STAF and that it also differs from China and Vietnam in terms of labour cost and conditions of access to raw material.
Glavni argumenti proti Braziliji so bili, da podobnosti med to državo ter LRK in Vietnamom ne obstajajo, kar zadeva socialno-ekonomski in kulturni razvoj ali BDP na prebivalca, da proizvaja majhne količine izdelkov STAF in da se od Kitajske in Vietnama razlikuje tudi glede stroškov dela in pogojev dostopa do surovin.
Some of the interested parties suggesting analogue countries other than Brazil argued that in a previous investigation concerning imports of certain footwear with uppers of leather or plastics originating in the PRC, Indonesia and Thailand [4], Indonesia was chosen as analogue country and that, consequently, it should also be chosen for this investigation.
Nekatere izmed zainteresiranih strank, ki so namesto Brazilije predlagale druge primerljive države, so trdile, da je bila v prejšnji preiskavi v zvezi z uvozom določene obutve z zgornjim delom iz usnja ali plastične mase s poreklom iz LRK, Indonezije in Tajske [4], kot primerljiva država izbrana Indonezija ter da bi morala biti zato ta država izbrana tudi za to preiskavo.
The Commission sought cooperation from exporters in Brazil and in other potential analogue countries such as India, Indonesia and Thailand.
Komisija si je prizadevala, da bi k sodelovanju povabila izvoznike iz Brazilije in drugih možnih primerljivih držav, kot so Indija, Indonezija in Tajska.
Letters were sent to more than 50 companies in Brazil as well as in India and more than 20 companies in Indonesia.
Povabila je poslala več kot 50 družbam v Braziliji ter Indiji ter več kot 20 družbam v Indoneziji.
In addition, the Commission services contacted the Thai Footwear Association and obtained cooperation from six Thai exporting producers.
Službe Komisije so tudi vzpostavile stik s tajskim obutvenim združenjem in šest tajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov je bilo pripravljenih sodelovati.
Out of all the companies which were contacted in the other countries, one Indian exporting producer, two Indonesian exporting producers and eight Brazilian exporting producers agreed to cooperate in the investigation.
Izmed vseh družb iz drugih držav, s katerimi je Komisija vzpostavila stik, so bili pri preiskavi pripravljeni sodelovati en indijski, dva indonezijska in osem brazilskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov.
Representative domestic sales
Reprezentativnost domače prodaje
One of the most important criteria for the selection of the analogue country are the representative domestic sales in the analogue country as compared to exports of the product concerned originating in the non-market economy country or countries concerned by the proceeding.
Eno izmed najpomembnejših meril za izbiro primerljive države je reprezentativnost domače prodaje v primerljivi državi v primerjavi z izvozom zadevnega izdelka s poreklom v državi z netržnim gospodarstvom ali državah, ki jih zadeva postopek.
Therefore, pursuant to Article 2(2) of the basic Regulation which is also applied to the analogue country, the domestic prices of the analogue country will normally be considered representative if their volume is at least 5 % of the quantities exported to the EU by the non-market economy country.
Zato se v skladu s členom 2(2) osnovne uredbe, ki se uporablja tudi za primerljivo državo, domače cene primerljive države običajno štejejo za reprezentativne, če predstavlja njihov obseg najmanj 5 % obsega izvoza države z netržnim gospodarstvom v EU.
As regards Indonesia, it should be noted that the two cooperating Indonesian exporting producers reported domestic sales which were not sufficiently representative as compared to the exports originating in the countries concerned.
Glede Indonezije je treba omeniti, da sta dva sodelujoča indonezijska proizvajalca izvoznika poročala o domači prodaji, ki ni bila dovolj reprezentativna v primerjavi z izvozom s poreklom v zadevnih državah.
Regarding India, only one cooperating exporter came forward.
Javil se je le en indijski sodelujoči izvoznik.
Its domestic sales represented, however, less than 5 % of the Vietnamese exports and were therefore not sufficiently representative with regard to the total exports from the countries concerned.
Vendar je njegova domača prodaja predstavljala manj kot 5 % vietnamskega izvoza in glede na celoten izvoz iz zadevnih držav ni bila dovolj reprezentativna.
As regards Thailand, six exporting producers came forward and cooperated by replying to the questionnaire.
Javilo se je tudi šest tajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki so izpolnili vprašalnike.
They did not have domestic sales representing 5 % or more of PRC or Vietnamese exports and were therefore not sufficiently representative with regard to the total exports from the countries concerned.
Vendar njihova domača prodaja ni predstavljala 5 % ali več kitajskega oziroma vietnamskega izvoza in glede na celoten izvoz iz zadevnih držav ni bila dovolj reprezentativna.
Consequently, Thailand was not found to be an appropriate analogue country.
Zato je bilo ugotovljeno, da Tajska ni ustrezna primerljiva država.
In contrast, the three main Brazilian exporting producers amongst the eight which cooperated, reported domestic sales which represented respectively more than 50 % of their own exports and their aggregate domestic sales were also found to account for 5 % or more in comparison with exports from the two countries concerned.
Nasprotno pa so trije glavni brazilski proizvajalci izvozniki izmed osmih, ki so sodelovali, navedli podatke o domači prodaji, ki je predstavljala več kot 50 % njihovega lastnega izvoza, ugotovljeno pa je bilo tudi, da predstavlja njihova skupna domača prodaja 5 % ali več v primerjavi z izvozom iz dveh zadevnih držav.
On the basis of the above, Brazil appeared to be the most reasonable choice in view of the representative domestic sales which permitted to avoid construction of the normal value and possible numerous adjustments.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega je Brazilija najbolj razumna izbira glede na reprezentativnost svoje domače prodaje, ki omogoča, da se lahko izognemo izračunu normalne vrednosti in morebitnim številnim spremembam.
Competition in the reference country
Konkurenca v referenčni državi
In terms of competition, the choice of Brazil as analogue country appeared also to be reasonable since it has more than 7000 producers, with a total production of more than 700 million pairs of shoes in 2004 and a domestic consumption of more than 500 million pairs in 2004.
Izbira Brazilije kot primerljive države se zdi primerna tudi v smislu konkurence, saj ima več kot 7000 proizvajalcev s skupno proizvodnjo več kot 700 milijonov parov čevljev leta 2004 in domačo potrošnjo več kot 500 milijonov parov čevljev v letu 2004.
Exports represented around 200 million pairs of shoes in 2004 amongst which more than 50 % for footwear with uppers of leather.
Leta 2004 so izvozili približno 200 milijonov parov čevljev, od tega več kot 50 % obutve z zgornjim delom iz usnja.
Brazil mainly exports to North America (United States and Canada), South America and Europe.
Brazilija večinoma izvaža v Severno Ameriko (Združene države in Kanado), Južno Ameriko in Evropo.
Imports accounted for around nine million pairs of shoes in 2004 amongst which around 80 % originating in the countries concerned.
Leta 2004 so uvozili približno 9 milijonov parov čevljev, od tega 80 % s poreklom iz zadevnih držav.
Based on 2003 figures, Brazil was also found to have the highest domestic consumption of shoes per capita (2,7) before Thailand (2,3), Indonesia (1,7) and India (0,6) (all types of shoes included).
Glede na številke iz leta 2003 je bilo ugotovljeno, da je za Brazilijo značilna najvišja potrošnja čevljev na prebivalca (2,7), pred Tajsko (2,3), Indonezijo (1,7) in Indijo (0,6) (vse vrste čevljev).
As regards the fact that Brazil hardly produces STAF, this argument was deemed irrelevant in view of the decision to exclude this type of shoes from the scope of the investigation as explained in recital 19.
Dejstvo, da proizvaja Brazilija le majhne količine obutve STAF, se je štelo kot nepomembno glede na odločitev, da se to vrsto čevljev izključi iz obsega preiskave, kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 19.
Socio-economic and cultural developments
Socialno-ekonomski in kulturni razvoj
Some parties claimed that Brazil is too different from the PRC and Vietnam in terms of socio-economic and cultural developments, or per capita GNP.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da se Brazilija preveč razlikuje od LRK in Vietnama v smislu socialno-ekonomskega in kulturnega razvoja oziroma v smislu BDP na prebivalca.
It should first be noted that differences in terms of cultural development are considered irrelevant for the choice of an analogue country, because an analogue country is taken to reflect market economy conditions and not comparable cultural development levels.
Prvič, treba je opomniti, da so razlike v smislu kulturnega razvoja nepomembne za izbiro primerljive države, saj se primerljiva država izbere z namenom, da odraža pogoje tržnega gospodarstva in ne primerljive ravni kulturnega razvoja.
As regards the choice of a country with different economic development, it should be mentioned that, by definition, a non-market-economy country or an economy in transition does not have the same economic characteristics as a market-economy country.
Kar zadeva uporabo države z drugačnim gospodarskim razvojem, je treba omeniti, da država z netržnim gospodarstvom ali gospodarstvo v tranziciji po definiciji nima enakih gospodarskih značilnosti kot država s tržnim gospodarstvom.
It is not unusual that such difference in economic development exists between an analogue country and a non-market-economy country or an economy in transition.
Ni nenavadno, da obstaja takšna razlika v gospodarskem razvoju med primerljivo državo in državo z netržnim gospodarstvom oziroma gospodarstvom v tranziciji.
This, however, does not prevent Brazil being chosen as analogue country as long as it is deemed more appropriate with regards to the other factors taken into consideration.
To vsekakor ne preprečuje izbire Brazilije kot primerljive države, če se zdi ustrezna, kar zadeva druge dejavnike, ki jih je treba upoštevati.
The same conclusion can be drawn with regard to the difference in income per capita which is also an indicator of economic development.
Isto se lahko sklene glede razlik v dohodku na prebivalca, ki je prav tako kazalnik gospodarskega razvoja.
In addition, it should be noted that, on the basis of the World Bank's main criteria for classifying economies is gross national income per capita, Brazil is classified in the same category as the PRC, Thailand and Indonesia.
Vredno je omeniti tudi, da je na podlagi glavnih meril Svetovne banke za razvrstitev gospodarstev, tj. bruto nacionalni dohodek na prebivalca, Brazilija uvrščena v isto kategorijo kot LRK, Tajska in Indonezija.
Several interested parties stressed the fact that labour costs are higher in Brazil than in Vietnam and China and that India, Indonesia or Thailand whose labour costs are more comparable would be more appropriate analogue countries.
Številne zainteresirane stranke so poudarile dejstvo, da so stroški dela v Braziliji višji kot v Vietnamu in na Kitajskem ter da bi bile Indija, Indonezija ali Tajska, katerih stroški dela so primerljivejši, ustreznejše primerljive države.
In this respect, it should be pointed out that the choice of the analogue country is not necessarily made among countries which have the same or the closest costs as the countries concerned, since precisely these latter costs are deemed biased by the fact that the countries concerned have no market economy or their economy is in transition.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da ni nujno, da se primerljiva država izbere izmed držav, ki imajo enake ali najbolj podobne stroške kot zadevne države, saj so ravno ti stroški izkrivljeni zaradi dejstva, da zadevne države nimajo tržnega gospodarstva ali je njihovo gospodarstvo v tranziciji.
As mentioned in recital 114, a country with a different level of economic development may be chosen as analogue country for a non-market-economy country or an economy in transition.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 114 zgoraj, se lahko za primerljivo državo za državo z netržnim gospodarstvom ali z gospodarstvom v tranziciji izbere država z drugačnim gospodarskim razvojem.
Similarly, labour costs which reflect the state of economic development of a country are not, in isolation, considered as a relevant criterion.
Tudi stroški dela, obravnavani ločeno, ki odražajo stanje gospodarskega razvoja države, se ne štejejo za ustrezno merilo.
None the less, as mentioned above, the level of cooperation from the Indian, the Thai and the Indonesian exporting producers was not such as to provide a sufficient representative sample of their domestic sales.
Kot je omenjeno zgoraj, v vsakem primeru stopnja sodelovanja indijskih, tajskih in indonezijskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov ni dovolj visoka za zagotovitev zadostne reprezentativnosti njihove domače prodaje.
Taking one of them as the reference country would lead to unnecessary use of constructed normal value and numerous adjustments.
Če bi eno izmed teh držav izbrali za primerljivo državo, bi to pripeljalo do nepotrebne uporabe konstruirane normalne vrednosti in do številnih prilagoditev.
Difference in the costs of production structures
Razlike v stroških proizvodnih struktur
