natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
As regards a switch of sourcing of Union imports, it was found that the relocation observed to date has not had a determinative effect, and there is no indication that there would be in the near future any major change in the trends observed so far.
Glede preusmeritve uvoza v Unijo je bilo ugotovljeno, da do zdaj zabeležena selitev ni imela odločilnega vpliva in da nič ne nakazuje na to, da bo dosedanjih trendov v bližnji prihodnosti prišlo do kakršne koli večje spremembe.
Exports from the countries concerned to the Union have continued to be made at dumped prices during the RIP.
Izvoz iz zadevnih držav v Unijo je med OPP še vedno potekal po dampinških cenah.
In view of the economic crisis and the (expected) contraction in demand, and in the absence of any information on import prices during the post-RIP pointing to the contrary, it does not seem unreasonable to predict that exports will continue to be made at dumped prices.
Zaradi gospodarske krize in (pričakovanega) zmanjšanja povpraševanja ter ob odsotnosti informacij o uvoznih cenah po OPP, ki bi kazale na nasprotno, se zdi smiselno predvidevati, da bo izvoz še naprej potekal po dampinških cenah.
In light of the above findings concerning both the RIP and post RIP developments it is concluded that there is a likelihood of continuation of dumping.
Glede na zgornje ugotovitve v zvezi z dogodki med OPP in po njem je bilo sklenjeno, da obstaja verjetnost nadaljevanja dampinga.
COMMENTS FROM INTERESTED PARTIES FOLLOWING DISCLOSURE
PRIPOMBE ZAINTERESIRANIH STRANK PO RAZKRITJU
A number of comments were received following disclosure of the findings.
Po razkritju ugotovitev so bile prejete številne pripombe.
However, none of these were such to alter the conclusions.
Vendar ugotovitve zaradi nobene pripombe niso bile spremenjene.
The main arguments raised were as follows.
Glavne pripombe so bile naslednje.
CHOICE OF ANALOGUE COUNTRY
IZBIRA PRIMERLJIVE DRŽAVE
Several parties reiterated comments they had made in the course of the investigation regarding the choice of analogue country.
Več strank je ponovilo pripombe, ki so jih imele med preiskavo glede izbire primerljive države.
They restated, inter alia, the view that Brazil was not an appropriate choice because of high protection through tariffs and non-automatic licenses, higher socio-economic development than China and Vietnam, assumed specialisation in women's footwear, and alleged dumping practices.
Med drugim so ponovile mnenje, da Brazilija ni primerna izbira zaradi visoke zaščite prek tarif in nesamodejno izdanih licenc, večjega socialno-ekonomskega razvoja kot je na Kitajskem in v Vietnamu, domnevne specializacije za žensko obutev in domnevni damping.
The Commission had already taken note of these arguments, and addressed them thoroughly in the disclosure and in recitals (68)-(108) of this Regulation.
Komisija je te pripombe že preučila in jih podrobno obravnavala v razkritju ter v uvodnih izjavah (68)–(108) te uredbe.
The analysis clearly showed that Brazil was the most appropriate choice as analogue country in this case.
Analiza je jasno pokazala, da je Brazilija najprimernejša izbira za primerljivo državo v tem primeru.
REPRESENTATIVENESS OF THE SAMPLE
REPREZENTATIVNOST VZORCA
Some interested parties claimed that the sample of exporters was less representative than reported in recital 15 and 18, because the dumping margin was calculated on the basis of 4 of the 12 months of the RIP.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da je vzorec izvoznikov manj reprezentativen, kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah (15) in (18), ker je bila stopnja dampinga izračunana na podlagi 4 od 12 mesecev OPP.
It is recalled, that this is the methodology of calculation normally used by the Commission in expiry reviews, where it should be determined whether there is continuation of dumping or a likelihood that dumping will recur.
Opozarja se, da gre za metodologijo izračuna, ki jo Komisija navadno uporablja pri pregledih zaradi izteka ukrepa, ko se ugotavlja, ali se damping nadaljuje oziroma ali se lahko ponovi.
The investigation on spot ensured that the 4 months were representative of the full 12 month period.
S preiskavo na kraju samem je bilo zagotovljeno, da so 4 meseci reprezentativni za celotno 12-mesečno obdobje.
This was achieved by comparing costs and prices of the 4 months data supplied with the remaining 8 months.
To je bilo doseženo s primerjavo stroškov in cen za 4 mesece s preostalimi 8 meseci.
In addition the 4 months selected were the last month of each quarter and therefore evenly spread over the 12 month period.
Poleg tega so bili izbrani 4 meseci zadnji meseci vsakega četrtletja in tako enakomerno razporejeni po celotnem 12-mesečnem obdobju.
The Commission does not therefore agree that the method applied reduced the representativeness of the sample.
Komisija se zato ne strinja, da je uporabljena metoda zmanjšala reprezentativnost vzorca.
PRODUCT CLASSIFICATION AND COMPARABILITY
UVRSTITEV IZDELKA IN PRIMERLJIVOST
It was claimed by certain interested parties that by correcting mistakes on PCNs made by the cooperating exporters, as mentioned in recital 59, the Commission has changed the methodology used in the original case.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da je z odpravo napak v ŠOI, ki so jih napravili sodelujoči izvozniki, kot je omenjeno v uvodni izjavi (59). Komisija spremenila metodologijo, ki je bila uporabljena v prvotnem primeru.
This allegation is unfounded.
Obtožba je neutemeljena.
It was precisely in order to use the PCN system adopted in the previous case that the Commission corrected PCN classification errors made by some exporters.
Komisija je ravno zato, da bi lahko uporabila ŠOI, ki je bil sprejet v predhodnem primeru, popravila napake, ki so jih pri razvrstitvah ŠOI naredili nekateri izvozniki.
It was alleged by certain interested parties that there was an insufficient level of direct matching of PCN's and that the method resorting to closely resembling PCNs is flawed.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da stopnja neposrednega ujemanja ŠOI ni zadostna ter da je metoda, ki uporablja čim bolj podobne ŠOI, pomanjkljiva.
This claim cannot be accepted.
Te trditve ni mogoče sprejeti.
This system was applied already in the original investigation.
Ta sistem je bil uporabljen že v prvotni preiskavi.
In the specific disclosures sent to parties in the present investigation, the Commission attached the correlation tables where the use of each resembling PCN was explained.
Posebnim razkritjem, poslanim strankam v sedanji preiskavi, je Komisija priložila korelacijske preglednice, kjer je bila pojasnjena uporaba vsakega podobnega ŠOI.
The use of closely resembling PCNs ensures a fair comparison between Brazilian models and models sold by the export countries.
Uporaba zelo podobnega ŠOI zagotavlja pravično primerjavo med brazilskimi modeli in modeli, ki jih prodajajo države izvoznice.
Moreover, where necessary, the normal values stemming from resembling PCNs were properly adjusted.
Poleg tega so bile normalne vrednosti, ki izhajajo iz podobnih ŠOI, po potrebi ustrezno prilagojene.
Furthermore, no party made any comment on a possible inaccuracy of a most resembling PCN used.
Nobena stranka pa tudi ni imela pripomb glede možne nenatančnosti najbolj podobnega uporabljenega ŠOI.
CALCULATION OF DUMPING
IZRAČUN DAMPINGA
Some parties stated that the calculation of dumping using Indonesia as analogue country was flawed, because the data used were neither verified nor properly adjusted.
Nekatere stranke so navedle, da je izračun dampinga, pri katerem se je Indonezija uporabila kot primerljiva država, napačen, ker uporabljeni podatki niso bili niti preverjeni niti ustrezno prilagojeni.
The Commission has examined the data presented by Indonesian companies, the use of which was suggested by several parties.
Komisija je preučila podatke, ki so jih predložile indonezijske družbe, uporabo katerih je predlagalo več strank.
As no adjustments were claimed, the Commission did not deem necessary to apply any.
Ker nihče ni zahteval prilagoditev, jih Komisija ni opravila.
In any event, it is recalled that in this particular case Indonesia was used only to cross-check the finding based on Brazil.
Ne glede na to je treba opozoriti, da je bila v tem primeru Indonezija uporabljena zgolj za navzkrižno preverjanje ugotovitve, ki je temeljila na Braziliji.
Several parties argued that the decrease in import volumes from China and Vietnam between 2005 and 2008 (which continued after the IP) and the increase of import prices in the same period suggest that there is no likelihood of continuation of injurious dumping.
Več strank je trdilo, da zmanjšanje uvoznih količin iz Kitajske in Vietnama med letoma 2005 in 2008 (ki se je nadaljevalo med OP) ter povečanje uvoznih cen v istem obdobju pomeni, da nadaljevanje škodljivega dampinga ni verjetno.
It is recalled that imports from China and Vietnam have more than 28 % market share in the Union in the RIP, which is very substantial.
Opozoriti je treba, da je uvoz iz Kitajske in Vietnama predstavljal več kot 28-odstotni, torej znatni, tržni delež v Uniji med OPP.
It is noted that in absolute figures import volumes from China and Vietnam were in the RIP larger than in the OIP, for which already injurious dumping had been established.
Ugotavlja se, da so bile uvozne količine iz Kitajske in Vietnama v absolutnih številkah med OPP večje kot med POP, za kar je že bil ugotovljen škodljivi damping.
Furthermore, the analysis of the sampled exporters’ verified data showed that since 2006 prices have decreased.
Poleg tega je analiza preverjenih podatkov vzorčenih izvoznikov pokazala, da so se od leta 2006 cene znižale.
It was claimed by certain interested parties that production costs in China and Vietnam have increased reducing the competitive threat of the companies.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da so se proizvodni stroški na Kitajskem in v Vietnamu povečali ter tako zmanjšali konkurenčnost družb.
The Commission is of the view that, since China and Vietnam are not market economies, an increase in cost does not necessarily entail a loss of competitiveness on the world market.
Komisija meni, da glede na to, da Kitajska in Vietnam nista tržni gospodarstvi, povečanje stroškov ne pomeni nujno nekonkurenčnosti na svetovnem trgu.
The investigation showed that both countries continued to keep high market shares in the Union market and hence to be a threat.
Preiskava je pokazala, da sta obe državi še naprej imeli velik tržni delež v Uniji in tako predstavljali grožnjo.
Some parties raised that, while the Union accepted that imports fell after the RIP because of the economic crisis, it was not accepted as a decisive point in the likelihood of recurrence of dumping.
Nekatere stranke so ugovarjale, da je Unija sicer priznala, da se je uvoz po OPP zmanjšal zaradi gospodarske krize, ni pa tega štela kot odločilnega pri ugotavljanju verjetnosti ponovitve dampinga.
As was explained in recitals 179 to 180 this was not accepted as a decisive point because the post RIP volumes are still very high and have a large Union market share at dumped prices.
Kot je bilo pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah (179) in (180), se to ni štelo kot odločilno, ker so količine po OPP še vedno zelo velike in predstavljajo velik tržni delež v Uniji po dampinških cenah.
Clearly, these are indicators that they are very likely to continue to be dumped in the future in significant volumes.
To je jasen kazalnik, da je nadaljevanje znatnega uvoza po dampinških cenah v prihodnosti zelo verjetno.
Some parties contested the attractiveness of the Union market and claimed that other destinations, in particular the United States and, partly, Russia, are at least of equal interest to Chinese and Vietnamese exporters.
Nekatere stranke so ugovarjale privlačnosti trga Unije in trdile, da so druge države, zlasti Združene države in delno Rusija, najmanj tako zanimive za kitajske in vietnamske izvoznike.
It was also mentioned that submissions of a party regarding expected substantial growth of the Chinese market itself was not duly considered.
Omenjeno je bilo tudi, da dokumentacija, ki jo je neka stranka predložila v zvezi s pričakovano znatno rastjo kitajskega trga, ni bila ustrezno preučena.
The Commission examined this matter and found that the Union market remains one of the most attractive markets for the Chinese exporters.
Komisija je preučila to zadevo in ugotovila, da je trg Unije še vedno eden najprivlačnejših trgov za kitajske izvoznike.
As regards the expected growth of consumption in China, the Commission looked into the elements provided by this party, but considered these insufficient to alter the conclusions.
V zvezi s pričakovano rastjo potrošnje na Kitajskem pa je Komisija preučila elemente, ki jih je predložila ta stranka, vendar je sklenila, da niso zadostni za spremembo sprejetih ugotovitev.
Even if this growth can be anticipated, there is no substantiated evidence that the growth would be of such magnitude to lead to a significant reduction of exports.
Tudi če je takšno rast mogoče pričakovati, pa ni nobenih dokazov, da bi ta bila tako velika, da bi privedla do znatnega zmanjšanja izvoza.
On these grounds this argument had to be rejected.
Na podlagi tega se ta trditev zavrne.
UNION PRODUCTION AND STANDING
PROIZVODNJA IN POLOŽAJ UNIJE
The review request was lodged by the CEC on behalf of Union producers representing more than 25 % of the Union production of the product concerned during the RIP.
Zahtevek za pregled je vložil CEC v imenu proizvajalcev Unije, ki so predstavljali več kot 25 % proizvodnje Unije zadevnega izdelka med OPP.
One interested party claimed that a number of the members of the CEC presumably supporting the complaint have themselves started to import large volumes from the countries concerned.
Ena zainteresirana stranka je trdila, da so številni člani CEC, ki naj bi podpirali pritožbo, začeli sami uvažati velike količine iz zadevnih držav.
It was also claimed that a significant ‘real’ production no longer took place in the Union.
Trdilo se je tudi, da v Uniji ni več omembe vredne „dejanske“ proizvodnje.
No evidence was provided in this regard to substantiate this allegation.
V zvezi s tem ni bil predložen noben dokaz, ki bi podprl to domnevo.
In this context, all available information, including information provided in the complaint, data collected from Union producers and national associations before and after the initiation of the investigation, as well as general production statistics was used in order to establish total Union production and the support for the investigation.
V tem okviru so bile za določitev celotne proizvodnje Unije in podporo preiskavi uporabljene vse razpoložljive informacije, vključno z informacijami iz pritožbe in podatki, ki so jih zagotovili proizvajalci Unije in nacionalna združenja pred začetkom preiskave in po njem, pa tudi splošna statistika proizvodnje.
The investigation revealed that none of the complaining Union producers should be excluded from the definition of Union production because, based on information obtained through the complainant, none of them were found to be related to exporting producers in the countries concerned and imports from the countries concerned, if any, were minimal.
Preiskava je pokazala, da iz opredelitve proizvodnje Unije ni treba izključiti nobenega pritožnika proizvajalca Unije, saj na podlagi informacij, pridobljenih od pritožnika, za nobenega ni bilo ugotovljeno, da bi bil povezan s proizvajalci izvozniki v zadevnih državah in uvozom iz zadevnih držav, če pa že, pa minimalno.
For each company concerned those imports constituted at the most 25 % of its production in the Union.
Za vsako zadevno družbo je ta uvoz predstavljal največ 25 % njene proizvodnje v Uniji.
As detailed under recital 23 and onwards, one of the companies included in the Union industry sample was found to have discontinued production in the Union in the period considered.
Kot je podrobno razloženo v uvodni izjavi (23) in naslednjih, je ena izmed družb, vključenih v vzorec industrije Unije, v obravnavanem obdobju prekinila proizvodnjo v Uniji.
It was considered whether this company should be excluded from the definition of Union industry.
Ugotavljalo se je, ali bi bilo treba to družbo izključiti iz opredelitve industrije Unije.
However, the weight of this company was minimal in terms of overall production as well as in relation to the rest of the sample [7].
Vendar je bil pomen te družbe glede na celotno proizvodnjo in tudi glede na preostanek vzorca minimalen.
Therefore, even if this company was excluded, there would be no change in the overall picture in terms of standing.
Četudi bi bila ta družba izključena, celotna slika z vidika reprezentativnosti ne bi bila drugačna.
Overall, the investigation has shown that there continues to be a significant leather footwear production in the Union, established in several Member states employing around 262000 people.
Na splošno je preiskava pokazala, da se v Uniji v več državah nadaljuje znatna proizvodnja usnjene obutve, ki zaposluje okrog 262000 ljudi.
The footwear production sector is constituted of around 18000 SME mainly situated in seven European countries with a concentration in three major producing countries.
Proizvodni sektor obutve sestavlja približno 18000 malih in srednje velikih podjetij, ki se v glavnem nahajajo v sedmih evropskih državah, od tega jih je največ v treh velikih državah proizvajalkah.
The investigation did however reveal that two companies belonging to the same group were found to be related to exporting producers in the PRC and the group was also itself importing significant quantities of the product concerned, including from its related exporters in the PRC.
Preiskava je vendarle pokazala, da sta dve družbi, ki spadata v isto skupino, povezani s proizvajalci izvozniki iz LRK, pri čemer je tudi sama skupina uvažala velike količine zadevnega izdelka, vključno od svojih povezanih izvoznikov v LRK.
Therefore, these companies were excluded from the notion of Union production in the meaning of Articles 4(1) and 5(4) of the basic Regulation.
Te družbe so bile zato izključene iz pojma proizvodnje Unije v smislu člena 4(1) in člena 5(4) osnovne uredbe.
Based on the above it was found that overall production of the Union Industry in the meaning of Articles 4(1) and 5(4) of the basic Regulation was 366 million pairs during the RIP.
Na podlagi navedenega je bilo ugotovljeno, da je bila celotna proizvodnja industrije Unije med OPP v smislu člena 4(1) in člena 5(4) osnovne uredbe 336 milijonov parov.
Considering that the Union producers supporting the request accounted for more than 25 % of the total production and in the absence of opposition equal to or larger than that magnitude, it is therefore concluded that the request is supported by a major proportion of the Union industry within the meaning of Article 4(1) and Article 5(4) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na to, da so proizvajalci Unije, ki so podprli zahtevo, predstavljali več kot 25 % celotne proizvodnje in ni bilo opozicije, enake ali večje od tega odstotka, je sklenjeno, da to zahtevo podpira večji del industrije Unije v smislu člena 4(1) in člena 5(4) osnovne uredbe.
DEVELOPMENT OF UNION PRODUCTION STRUCTURES
RAZVOJ PROIZVODNIH STRUKTUR UNIJE
The data of the present case refers to an enlarged Union of 27 Member States rather than the 25 countries examined in the original case.
Podatki tega primera se nanašajo na razširjeno Unijo s 27 državami članicami namesto 25 držav, ki so bile preverjene v prvotnem primeru.
Romania, which joined Union in 2007, is a significant producer.
Romunija, ki se je Uniji pridružila leta 2007, je velika proizvajalka.
However, an important part of its output is rather transformation of raw material against a service fee (‘toll manufacturing’) for other companies in the Union.
Vendar je velik del njene proizvodnje predelava surovin, za katero drugim družbam v Uniji storitev zaračuna („podizvajalska proizvodnja“).
The impact of the genuine Romanian production on the overall picture of Union production and other indicators is therefore limited.
Vpliv dejanske romunske proizvodnje na celotno sliko proizvodnje Unije in druge kazalnike je torej omejen.
The same limited impact can be attributed to Bulgaria.
Enak omejen vpliv se lahko pripiše tudi Bolgariji.
Enlargement has thus not had a significant effect in this regard.
Širitev v tem smislu torej ni imela velikega učinka.
The footwear sector in the Union is characterised by networks of micro (employing less than 10 persons) and small enterprises.
Za obutveni sektor v Uniji so značilne mreže mikro (ki zaposlujejo manj kot 10 ljudi) in majhnih podjetij.
Companies of more than 500 employees are exceptions and employ only a limited portion of the overall workforce in the sector.
Družbe z več kot 500 zaposlenimi so izjeme in zaposlujejo le omejen del celotne delovne sile v sektorju.
Micro and small enterprises have the advantage to be more flexible and adaptable to changes of market demand, but on the other hand, they are financially more vulnerable to the international competition and to the economic downturn.
Mikro in majhna podjetja imajo prednost zaradi svoje prožnosti in prilagodljivosti na spremembe tržnega povpraševanja, vendar so po drugi strani finančno občutljivejša na mednarodno konkurenco in gospodarski upad.
Compared to the situation found in the original investigation, the production structures have changed in many ways.
V primerjavi s stanjem, ugotovljenim v prvotni preiskavi, so se proizvodne strukture spremenile na več načinov.
Under the pressure of international competition, many producers have disappeared, some altogether and others becoming distributors of production in Asian countries and closer to home (Bosnia, Croatia, Morocco, Tunisia, Serbia).
Pod pritiskom mednarodne konkurence je veliko proizvajalcev izginilo ali se združilo, drugi pa so postali distributerji proizvodnje v azijskih državah in bližje domu (Bosna, Hrvaška, Maroko, Tunizija, Srbija).
Others have decided to move parts of the manufacturing process within the Union (Romania, Hungary, Poland).
Drugi so se odločili, da bodo dele proizvodnega postopka preselili znotraj Unije (Romunija, Madžarska, Poljska).
As part of a process to change business model, many operators have also pooled production facilities through the integration in clusters set up through flexible sub-contracts with other producers.
Kot del postopka za spremembo poslovnega modela je veliko proizvajalcev združilo proizvodne zmogljivosti s povezovanjem v grozde, ustanovljene s prilagodljivimi podizvajalskimi pogodbami z drugimi proizvajalci.
With this system a leader company provides design, raw material (which remains property of the leader company) and outsources in its geographical vicinity the manufacturing (or one or more phases of the manufacturing such as stitching) to various specialized micro companies granting to them a regular seasonal activity by agreed quantities.
V takem sistemu vodilna družba zagotovi oblikovanje in surovine (ki ostanejo last vodilne družbe) ter v svoji geografski bližini odda proizvodnjo (ali eno ali več faz proizvodnje, kakor je šivanje) različnim specializiranim mikro podjetjem, katerim s tem v dogovorjenih količinah zagotovi redno sezonsko dejavnost.
At the end of the process the leader company pays a fee for the work performed by the sub-contractors.
Na koncu postopka vodilno podjetje plača delo, ki so ga izvedli podizvajalci.
Part of the industry has also undergone a change in business model characterised by a move in production towards the upmarket segment concentrating in higher value products.
Del industrije je spremenilo svoj poslovni model in proizvodnjo preusmerilo v segment višjega razreda, ki proizvaja predvsem visokokakovostne izdelke.
Some of the biggest Union producers could thus find new opportunities by creating their own brand.
Nekateri izmed največjih proizvajalcev Unije so lahko tako ustvarili nove priložnosti z ustvarjanjem lastne blagovne znamke.
