It has also been argued that the injury to the Union producers is likely to decrease as a result of the appreciation of the USD to the EURO.
Trdilo se je tudi, da se bo škoda proizvajalcev Unije verjetno zmanjšala zaradi povečane vrednosti ameriškega dolarja glede na euro.
The fluctuation in currency would push up the prices of the dumped imports that are traded in Euro so as to close the price gap between the dumped imports and Union producer prices.
Nihanje valute bi zvišalo cene dampinškega uvoza, s katerim se trguje v eurih, in tako bi se zmanjšala razlika med cenami dampinškega uvoza in cenami proizvajalcev Unije.
In this context it should be noted that the investigation has to establish whether the dumped imports (in terms of prices and volume) have caused (or are likely to cause) material injury to the Union industry or whether such material injury (or likelihood thereof) was due to other factors.
V zvezi s tem je treba opomniti, da je treba s preiskavo ugotoviti, ali je dampinški uvoz (glede cen in obsega) povzročil (ali bi lahko povzročil) znatno škodo industriji Unije ali pa je takšna znatna škoda (ali njena verjetnost) 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 (or are likely to cause) injury.
V zvezi s tem člen 3(6) osnovne uredbe določa, da je treba dokazati, da raven cen dampinškega uvoza povzroča (ali bi lahko povzročila) škodo.
The likely effect of the dumped imports on the Union industry's prices is essentially examined by establishing price undercutting, price depression and price suppression.
Verjeten učinek dampinškega uvoza na cene industrije Unije se v glavnem preuči tako, da se ugotovijo nelojalno nižanje cen, padanje cen in zajezitev cen.
For this purpose, the dumped export prices and the Union 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.
Pri tem se primerjajo dampinške izvozne cene in prodajne cene industrije Unije, pri čemer je včasih treba izvozne cene, ki se uporabljajo za izračun škode, zaradi primerljivosti pretvoriti v drugo valuto, da se dobi primerljiva osnova.
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 člen 3(7) osnovne uredbe, ki se nanaša na 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.
Seznam drugih znanih dejavnikov v tem členu ne vključuje nobenega dejavnika, ki vpliva na raven cen dampinškega uvoza.
However, even in the event that this factor were taken into account, given the likely pressure on consumer prices in a context of a market downturn, it is unlikely that importers buying from the countries concerned would be able to increase prices to retail as a result of the appreciation of the USD.
Vendar četudi bi se ti dejavniki upoštevali, je glede na verjetnost pritiska na potrošniške cene v okviru gospodarskega upada malo verjetno, da bi uvozniki, ki kupujejo od zadevnih držav, lahko zvišali cene za široko potrošnjo zaradi povečane vrednosti ameriškega dolarja.
Furthermore, exchange rates as such are very difficult to predict and a depreciation of the USD against the Euro has been seen post RIP making it impossible to conclude that the currency fluctuations will have an upwards effect on prices of dumped imports from the countries concerned.
Poleg tega je menjalne tečaje kot take zelo težko predvideti in glede na zmanjšanje vrednosti ameriškega dolarja glede na euro po OP ni mogoče sklepati, da bodo nihanja valute zvišala cene dampinškega uvoza iz zadevnih držav.
In view of the foregoing it cannot be concluded that the development of exchange rate could be another factor causing injury.
Glede na navedeno ni mogoče zaključiti, da bi bila sprememba menjalnega tečaja dodaten dejavnik škode.
CONCLUSION ON THE LIKELY IMPACT OF OTHER FACTORS
ZAKLJUČEK O VERJETNEM UČINKU DRUGIH DEJAVNIKOV
As seen from the above, while it cannot be ruled out that other factors including the economic downturn will have an effect on the financial situation of the Union producers the investigation has not shown that on their own they would break the link between the dumped imports and the continued injury that the Union industry would suffer.
Kot je razvidno iz zgoraj navedenega, s preiskavo ni bilo ugotovljeno, da bi drugi dejavniki prekinili zvezo med dampinškim uvozom in nadaljevanjem škode, ki bi jo utrpela industrija Unije, čeprav ni mogoče izključiti, da bodo drugi dejavniki, vključno z gospodarskim upadom, vplivali na finančni položaj proizvajalcev Unije.
I. CONCLUSION ON THE CONTINUATION OF INJURY
I. ZAKLJUČEK O NADALJEVANJU ŠKODE
As established above in section G4, the investigation has shown that the injurious situation of the Union industry has continued in the RIP.
Kot je bilo ugotovljeno v oddelku G4, je preiskava pokazala, da se je v OPP škoda, ki jo je utrpela Unija, nadaljevala.
The continuation of injury is according to Article 11.2 of the basic Regulation in itself a strong indicator that injury is likely to also continue in the future which would suggest that measures should be kept in place.
Nadaljevanje škode je v skladu s členom 11(2) osnovne uredbe samo po sebi dober pokazatelj, da se bo škoda verjetno nadaljevala tudi v prihodnosti, kar pomeni, da je treba ukrepe ohraniti.
The findings pertaining to imports shows that imports of large volumes at dumped prices are likely to continue and that price pressure (not least in the context of the economic downturn) is likely to intensify the competition between dumped imports and Union produced leather shoes.
Ugotovitve v zvezi z uvozom kažejo, da se bo uvoz v velikem obsegu po dampinških cenah po vsej verjetnosti nadaljeval in da bo pritisk na cene (že zaradi gospodarskega upada) verjetno zaostril konkurenco med dampinškim uvozom in usnjeno obutvijo, izdelano v Uniji.
The investigation has also shown that there would be no other known factors that would break the strong link between the dumped imports and the injury Union producers would suffer.
Preiskava je tudi pokazala, da ni nobenega drugega znanega dejavnika, ki bi prekinil močno povezavo med dampinškim uvozom in škodo, ki bi jo utrpeli proizvajalci Unije.
An overall analysis of the findings in the investigation indicates that the consequence of the lifting of measures would likely lead to continuously large and possibly increased volumes of imports from both China and Vietnam at prices which would even further undercut those of the Union industry.
Celovita analiza ugotovitev v preiskavi kaže, da bi odprava ukrepov verjetno privedla do stalno velikih in morda še večjih količin uvoza tako iz Kitajske kot iz Vietnama po cenah, ki bi še bolj nelojalno nižale cene industrije Unije.
The market downturn would most likely further exacerbate this development.
Upad trga bi ta razvoj najverjetneje še okrepil.
The dumped imports would therefore most likely have significant detrimental effects on the Union industry.
Dampinški uvoz bi zato zelo verjetno močno negativno vplival na industrijo Unije.
Under such circumstances the Union industry would either have to follow the decrease in prices in order to maintain market share, or maintain sales prices at current levels and instead lose customers and eventually sales.
V takšnih razmerah bi morala industrija Unije slediti znižanju cen, da ohrani tržni delež, ali pa ohraniti prodajne cene na sedanjih ravneh, s čimer bi izgubila potrošnike in nazadnje prodajo.
In the former case, the Union industry would have to operate at a loss and in the latter case the loss of sales as such would eventually lead to increased costs followed by losses.
V prvem primeru bi morala industrija Unije poslovati z izgubo, v drugem pa bi izguba prodaje kot taka nazadnje privedla do zvišanja stroškov, čemur bi sledila izguba.
Moreover, the Union industry has suffered the effects of dumped imports for many years and is currently in a precarious economic situation.
Poleg tega industrija Unije že več let trpi zaradi učinkov dampinškega uvoza in je trenutno v negotovem gospodarskem položaju.
However, it has also been established that a large part of the Union producers have been able to redefine their business models, concentrating on higher added value, mid to high end product segment and with more streamlined distribution channels.
Vendar pa je bilo tudi ugotovljeno, da je velikemu delu proizvajalcev Unije uspelo na novo opredeliti svoje poslovne modele, pri čemer so se osredotočili na višjo dodano vrednost, srednji do visoki segment izdelka in racionalizirali distribucijske kanale.
This group is also gradually absorbing the activity of the part of industry that has not yet been able to adjust and implement new business models and a further adjustment period would be needed to complete this change-over across the entire industry.
Ta skupina postopoma absorbira tudi dejavnost dela industrije, kateremu se še ni uspelo prilagoditi in uvesti novih poslovnih modelov, zato bi bilo za dokončanje tega procesa v celotni industriji potrebno še nadaljnje prilagoditveno obdobje.
Should the measures be terminated at this sensitive stage, the situation of the Union producers would deteriorate and the process of moving to a new business model would be likely halted and the very existence of a large part of the industry would be jeopardized.
Če bi bili ukrepi ukinjeni v tej občutljivi fazi, bi se položaj proizvajalcev Unije poslabšal in postopek prehoda na nov poslovni model bi se verjetno ustavil, ogrožen pa bi bil tudi sam obstoj velikega dela industrije.
Therefore the investigation has revealed that there is, due to imports from both China and Vietnam, a clear likelihood of continuation of injury to the Union industry for the short/medium term, until the process of adjustment has been completed.
Zato je preiskava razkrila, da zaradi uvoza iz Kitajske in Vietnama obstaja jasna verjetnost kratko-/dolgoročnega nadaljevanja škode za industrijo Unije, dokler se postopek prilagajanja ne zaključi.
COMMENTS RECEIVED PERTAINING TO FORMAL, PROCEDURAL AND RIGHTS OF DEFENCE MATTERS
PREJETE PRIPOMBE GLEDE FORMALNIH IN POSTOPKOVNIH ZADEV TER ZADEV V ZVEZI S PRAVICO DO OBRAMBE
Confidentiality of the names of the complainant
Zaupnost imen pritožnikov
Several interested parties repeated their concerns as to the confidentiality treatment granted to the complainant, claiming that there was no trace in the file in support of the allegation that the situation of the complainant would be negatively affected should their identity be disclosed.
Več zainteresiranih strank je ponovno izrazilo zaskrbljenost glede zaupnosti obravnave, ki je bila zagotovljena pritožnikom, in trdilo, da v dokumentaciji ni ničesar, kar bi podprlo trditev, da bi se na položaj pritožnika negativno vplivalo, če bi bila njegova identiteta razkrita.
One interested party added that in order not to be disclosed, WTO practice would require that good cause be demonstrated for all documents, whether considered confidential by nature or not.
Ena zainteresirana stranka je dodala, da bi za nerazkritje glede na prakso, ki se izvaja v STO, bilo treba imeti dober razlog za vse dokumente, ne glede na to, ali se štejejo za zaupne ali ne.
According to this party no such good cause had been shown in this case.
Ta stranka meni, da v tem primeru za to ni bilo nobenega dobrega razloga.
The same party also argued that should the request for confidentiality nevertheless be granted, this should in turn mean that at least the full details on unit price and profitability indicators of the sample could be disclosed.
Ista stranka je tudi trdila, da bi v primeru odobritve zahtevka za zaupnost morale biti razkrite vsaj vse podrobnosti v zvezi s ceno za enoto ter kazalniki dobičkonosnosti vzorca.
As indicated in recitals 40-42 the confidentiality concerning the identities of the complainant and the producers selected for the sample was based on a duly justified request further to Article 19 in the basic Regulation.
Kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah (40)–(42), je zaupnost identitete pritožnika in proizvajalcev, izbranih v vzorec, temeljila na pravočasnem zahtevku v skladu s členom 19 osnovne uredbe.
It is therefore not correct that due cause was not demonstrated by the complainant.
Zato ne drži, da pritožnik ni navedel ustreznega razloga.
As concerns the argument that full details of unit price and profitability should be disclosed it is maintained that this, seen in context with publicly available information, could indirectly reveal the identity of the complainant.
Kar zadeva trditev, da bi bilo treba razkriti podrobne podatke glede cen za enoto in dobičkonosnosti, pa se vztraja, da bi to v smislu javno dostopnih informacij lahko posredno razkrilo identiteto pritožnika.
Moreover within the group of the sampled companies, such disclosure would affect the commercial interests of the other sampled companies that are also competitors on the market.
Poleg tega bi v skupini vzorčenih družb tako razkritje vplivalo na komercialne interese drugih vzorčenih družb, ki so tudi konkurenca na trgu.
In view of the above, the comments received would not be such as to alter the conclusion to grant confidential treatment to the identity of the Union producers supporting the request.
Glede na zgoraj navedeno se sklep o odobritvi zaupne obravnave identitete proizvajalcev Unije, ki podpirajo zahtevek, na podlagi prejetih pripomb ne bo spremenil.
Definition of Union industry and standing
Opredelitev industrije Unije in njenega položaja
Several interested parties argued that the Commission had applied the definition of Union industry and Union production incorrectly.
Več zainteresiranih strank je trdilo, da je Komisija opredelitev industrije Unije in proizvodnje Unije napačno uporabila.
Two parties claimed that an injury assessment has to be based on information on the complainant and supporters of the complaint and not on the basis of the total Union production.
Dve stranki sta trdili, da mora ocena škode temeljiti na informacijah pritožnika in tistih, ki podpirajo pritožbo, in ne na podlagi celotne proizvodnje Unije.
According to these parties, this meant that the macro indicators used were not representative.
Po mnenju teh strank to pomeni, da uporabljeni makrokazalniki niso bili reprezentativni.
It was also held that the Commission had failed to exclude from the sample a company that had discontinued production in the Union in the RIP.
Trdilo se je tudi, da Komisija iz vzorca ni izključila družbe, ki je imela v Uniji med OPP prekinjeno proizvodnjo.
Some parties maintained that the inclusion of this company had distorted the micro indicators as well as the undercutting and underselling analysis.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da je vključitev te družbe izkrivila mikrodejavnike in tudi analizo nelojalnega nižanja cen in prodaje pod ceno.
Conversely, another interested party that did not object to the inclusion in the sample of this party, held that all data of this company and not only that relating to its activity in the Union should be taken into account for the injury analysis.
Nasprotno pa je neka druga zainteresirana stranka, ki ni nasprotovala vključitvi te stranke v vzorec, trdila, da bi bilo treba pri analizi upoštevati vse podatke te družbe in ne samo podatke o njeni dejavnosti v Uniji.
The same interested parties claimed that the Commission had failed to exclude from the definition of Union industry companies that imported up to 25 % of the total production from third countries.
Iste zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da Komisija iz opredelitve industrije Unije ni izločila družb, ki so iz tretjih držav uvozile do 25 % celotne proizvodnje.
According to these interested parties this constituted a change in methodology when compared to recital 231 of the Regulation imposing provisional measures in the original investigation, stipulating that all companies that had delocalised had been excluded.
Po mnenju teh zainteresiranih strank je to povzročilo spremembo v metodologiji glede na uvodno izjavo (231) uredbe, s katero so bili uvedeni začasni ukrepi v prvotni preiskavi, tako da so bile vse družbe, ki so se preselile, izključene.
It was also claimed that the Commission practice in general as concerned the application of Article 4(1) of the basic Regulation, would require the exclusion of companies that import around 25 % of the total production.
Trdile so tudi, da bi praksa Komisije na splošno, kar zadeva uporabo člena 4(1) osnovne uredbe, zahtevala izključitev družb, ki uvozijo približno 25 % celotne proizvodnje.
In this context one party also claimed that the Commission had wrongly concluded that none of the CEC members had outsourced production even when a submission showing the contrary had been submitted in the course of the investigation.
V tem kontekstu je ena stranka celo trdila, da je Komisija napačno ugotovila, da nobena članica ES ni oddala proizvodnje, čeprav so bile med preiskavo predložene informacije o nasprotnem.
Several interested parties also indicated that the general disclosure document was inconsistent as recital 3 indicated that the support for the complaint was 35 %, while recital 193 indicated 25 %.
Več zainteresiranih strank je tudi opozorilo, da je bil dokument o splošnem razkritju nedosleden, saj je bilo v uvodni izjavi 3 navedeno, da je podpora pritožbi 35 %, v uvodni izjavi (193) pa 25 %.
As seen above in recitals 193-200 the Union industry was defined as provided for in Article 4.1 of the Basic Regulation.
Kot je razvidno iz uvodnih izjav (193)–(201), je bila industrija Unije opredeljena, kot določa člen 4(1) osnovne uredbe.
The assessment of the situation of the entire Union production complies with the basic Regulation.
Ocena položaja celotne proizvodnje Unije je skladna z osnovno uredbo.
The argument that the injury assessment was based on an incorrect definition of the Union industry must thus be rejected.
Trditev, da ocena škode temelji na napačni opredelitvi industrije Unije, se zato zavrne.
As to the failure to exclude one of the sampled companies, it is recalled that recitals 23 and 196 provides the reasons why the company should be retained in the sample.
Kar zadeva trditev, da Komisija ni izključila ene izmed vzorčenih družb, je treba opozoriti, da uvodni izjavi (23) in (196) navajata razloge, zakaj je bila ta družba ohranjena v vzorcu.
It is further concluded that a possible exclusion would not have any effect, on standing or on the injury situation, including undercutting, of the sample.
Komisija je sklenila tudi, da morebitna izključitev ne bi imela nobenega učinka na položaj ali na škodo vzorca, vključno z nelojalnim nižanjem cen.
This was due to the very small weight of this company in the sample.
Tako je sklenila na podlagi zelo majhnega deleža, ki ga ta družba predstavlja v vzorcu.
Whether the company is formally excluded or not has therefore no practical implications on the outcome of the analysis.
Ali je družba formalno izključena ali ne zato nima nobenih praktičnih posledic na rezultat analize.
As seen in recital 195, Union production was based only on companies that fall under the definition of Article 4 (including 4(1). Based on the information on record, no legal entities were taken into account that had delocalised and that should have been excluded from the definition of Union producer under Article 4(1). In this context it is recalled that limited imports as such do not amount to delocalisation. While a small number of complaining producers did import, these volumes were very limited and in any event at most 25 % of the total output of the company concerned. In view of the foregoing the claim that the Commission has deviated from the practice in the original case or from the provisions of the basic Regulation is not correct.
Kot je razvidno iz uvodne izjave (195), je proizvodnja Unije temeljila le na družbah, ki so zajete v opredelitev iz člena 4 (vključno s 4(1)). Na podlagi zabeleženih informacij niso bili upoštevani nobeni pravni subjekti, ki so spremenili sedež in bi morali biti v skladu s členom 4(1) izključeni iz opredelitve proizvajalca Unije. V tem kontekstu je treba opozoriti, da omejen uvoz kot tak ni privedel do spremembe sedeža. Medtem ko je majhno število proizvajalcev pritožnikov uvažalo, so bile te količine zelo omejene in v vsakem primeru znašale največ 25 % celotne proizvodnje zadevne družbe. Glede na navedeno trditev, da je Komisija ravnala drugače kot v prvotnem primeru oziroma drugače, kot je določeno v osnovni uredbi, ne drži.
As to the alleged inconsistency between the figure of support of the complaints mentioned in recitals 3 and 193, it should be noted that recital 193 simply states that the support is over and above the legal minimum of 25 % and is therefore not an indication of the actual support over and above this threshold.
Kar zadeva domnevno neskladnost med odstotki podpore pritožbi, navedenimi v uvodnih izjavah (3) in (193), je treba opozoriti, da uvodna izjava (193) zgolj navaja, da je podpora večja od zakonsko določenega minimuma 25 % in torej ne navaja dejanske podpore nad tem pragom.
Period for assessment of injury
Obdobje za oceno škode
Several interested parties claimed that the period for assessing injury was incoherent.
Več zainteresiranih strank je trdilo, da obdobje za oceno škode ni bilo dosledno opredeljeno.
In particular, it was held that using the period under consideration for certain indicators, while referring back to the OIP and to 2005 for other injury indicators, would lead to an inconsistent result.
Trdile so zlasti, da je uporaba obravnavanega obdobja za nekatere kazalnike in uporaba POP vse do 2005 za druge kazalnike škode, privedla do neskladnih rezultatov.
Other interested parties claimed that the Commission had relied on data for 2005 and the OIP without disclosing these data.
Druge zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da se je Komisija oprla na podatke za leto 2005 in POP, ne da bi jih razkrila.
The assessment of the injury analysis was based on the findings in the period concerned i.e. from 2006 up to and including the RIP.
Ocena analize škode je temeljila na ugotovitvah iz zadevnega obdobja, tj. od leta 2006 do vključno OPP.
References to the OIP and 2005 were made only to complement the analysis but did not have a decisive impact on the conclusions.
Sklicevanja na POP in 2005 so bila uporabljena samo za dopolnitev analize in niso odločilno vplivala na sklepe.
In view of the foregoing the claim that the period for assessing injury led to an inconsistent analysis will have to be rejected.
Glede na zgoraj navedeno se trditev, da je obdobje za oceno škode privedlo do neskladne analize, zavrne.
Representativeness of the sample of Union producers
Reprezentativnost vzorca proizvajalcev Unije
Several parties maintained that the sample of Union producers was not representative in term of product types, size and geographical spread.
Več strank je trdilo, da vzorec proizvajalcev Unije ni bil reprezentativen v smislu vrst izdelka, velikosti in geografske razširjenosti.
In this context it was held that the Commission had not given sufficient explanation for the geographical spread of the sample and that this in any event was not representative as footwear is produced in at least 7 Member states out of which only four were part of the sample.
V tem kontekstu so trdile, da Komisija ni zadostno pojasnila geografske razširjenosti vzorca in da ta v nobenem primeru ni bil reprezentativen, saj se obutev proizvaja v vsaj sedmih državah članicah, od katerih so bile samo štiri zajete v vzorec.
In addition it was claimed that one Member state in particular was overrepresented.
Poleg tega so trdile, da je bila zlasti ena država članica preveč zastopana.
One interested party also requested that the Commission provided information on the level of tolling arrangements found with the Union industry.
Ena zainteresirana stranka je tudi zahtevala, naj Komisija zagotovi informacije o stopnji dogovorov o oplemenitenju v industriji Unije.
