They argued that certain types of footwear, within the scope of the like product, e.g. hiking shoes, bowling shoes, white water canoeing shoes, special technology shoes, horse riding shoes and special sizes shoes, were too different to belong to the same category.
Trdile so, da se določene vrste obutve, ki se štejejo za podobne izdelke, npr. pohodniški čevlji, čevlji za kegljanje, čevlji za kanuiste na divjih vodah, čevlji s posebno tehnologijo, škornji za jahanje in čevlji posebnih velikosti, preveč razlikujejo, da bi sodili v isto kategorijo.
A further claim was that the value threshold of EUR 7,5 per pair applicable to STAF shoes should be reduced.
Nadaljnji zahtevek je bil, da se zniža mejni znesek 7,5 EUR na par, ki velja za čevlje STAF.
It is recalled that in the original investigation this value threshold had been reduced from EUR 9 to EUR 7,5 per pair.
Treba je opomniti, da je bil mejni znesek v prvotni preiskavi znižan z 9 EUR na 7,5 EUR za par.
In this respect, an expiry review does not allow for a change in the scope of the product under measures.
V zvezi s tem pregled zaradi izteka ukrepov ne omogoča spremembe področja uporabe izdelka v skladu z ukrepi.
Such change could be considered if a party were to make a substantiated request under Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation.
Taka sprememba bi lahko bila upoštevana, če bi stranka vložila utemeljeno zahtevo po členu 11(3) osnovne uredbe.
Therefore the above claims had to be rejected.
Zato je bilo treba zgornje trditve zavrniti.
In accordance with Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether dumping was likely to continue or recur upon a possible expiry of the measures in force against the PRC and Vietnam.
V skladu s členom 11(2) osnovne uredbe se je preučilo, ali obstaja verjetnost, da se bo damping nadaljeval ali ponovil zaradi morebitnega prenehanja veljavnosti ukrepov, ki veljajo za LRK in Vietnam.
The volumes and prices of imports from the two countries concerned have developed as shown in the table below.
Obseg in cene uvoza obeh zadevnih držav so se razvijali, kakor je razvidno iz spodnje preglednice.
Chinese imports were subject to quotas until 31 December 2004 and imports increased substantially after this date and were at high levels in 2006.
Za uvoz iz Kitajske so kvote veljale do 31. decembra 2004, po tem datumu pa se je uvoz bistveno povečal in je leta 2006 dosegel visoko raven.
In 2007 and in the RIP import volumes have stabilised after a decrease compared to 2006.
Leta 2007 in v OPP se je obseg uvoza po zmanjšanju v primerjavi z letom 2006 stabiliziral.
As a result of the anti-circumvention investigation the measures were extended to the imports of Macao SAR which were subject to registration as from September 2007.
Kot rezultat preiskave proti izogibanju so bili ukrepi razširjeni na uvoz iz Posebne upravne regije Macao, ki ga je bilo treba registrirati od septembra 2007.
Imports from Vietnam were not subject to quotas and were at high levels in the OIP.
Za uvoz iz Vietnama kvote niso veljale in je v POP dosegel visoko raven.
Imports volumes then decreased up to 2007 before rising again in the RIP.
Obseg uvoza se je nato zmanjšal do leta 2007, preden se je v OPP ponovno povečal.
These figures show that, contrary to the arguments made by some interested parties, imports from the countries concerned remained at high levels in the RIP.
Te številke kažejo, da je uvoz iz zadevnih držav v nasprotju s trditvami nekaterih zainteresiranih strank v OPP ostal na visoki ravni.
Their combined market share in the RIP is 28,7 % and is thus significantly higher than the levels seen in the OIP (23,2 %).
Njun skupni tržni delež v OPP je 28,7 % in je tako bistveno višji od ravni v POP (23,3 %).
Although their respective market shares have fluctuated since the OIP, they remained overall substantial, as each of the countries had more than 10 % market share in the RIP.
Čeprav sta njuna zadevna tržna deleža od POP nihala, sta na splošno ostala precejšnja, saj je imela vsaka od držav v OPP tržni delež, višji od 10 %.
Based on Eurostat figures, the average import prices from both countries concerned rose between the OIP and 2006.
Na podlagi številk Eurostata so se povprečne uvozne cene obeh zadevnih držav med POP in letom 2006 zvišale.
Since then, prices have stabilised for the PRC and fallen for Vietnam.
Od takrat so se za LRK stabilizirale, za Vietnam pa znižale.
As Eurostat data are necessarily general and, while covering the product concerned, do not give indications of possible changes in product mix, an analysis was therefore undertaken to examine price trends of the seven sampled companies for the PRC and the three sampled companies for Vietnam.
Ker so podatki Eurostata nujno splošni in čeprav se nanašajo na zadevni izdelek, ne navajajo morebitnih sprememb prodajnega programa, zato je bila narejena analiza za preučitev cenovnih trendov sedmih vzorčenih družb iz LRK in treh vzorčenih družb iz Vietnama.
Overall, for the sampled companies in the two countries, it was found that prices of imports decreased over the period from 2006 to the RIP.
Na splošno so se za vzorčene družbe v teh dveh državah cene uvoza v obdobju od 2006 do OPP znižale.

DUMPING OF CHINESE AND VIETNAMESE IMPORTS DURING THE RIP
DAMPING KITAJSKEGA IN VIETNAMSKEGA UVOZA MED OPP
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 appropriate market economy third country.
V skladu s členom 2(7) osnovne uredbe je treba pri uvozu iz držav z netržnim gospodarstvom in v primerih, kadar ni mogoče odobriti TGO, za države, opredeljene v členu 2(7)(b) osnovne uredbe, določiti normalno vrednost na podlagi cene ali konstruirane vrednosti v primerni tretji državi s tržnim gospodarstvom.
For the purpose of establishing normal value for the PRC and Vietnam, the Commission indicated in the Notice of initiation its intention to use Brazil as analogue country which was used as an appropriate analogue country in the original investigation.
Za določitev normalne vrednosti za LRK in Vietnam je Komisija v obvestilu o začetku navedla svojo namero, da kot primerljivo državo izbere Brazilijo, ki je bila uporabljena kot primerna primerljiva država v prvotni preiskavi.
The Commission invited interested parties to comment thereon.
Komisija je vse zainteresirane stranke pozvala, naj o tem izrazijo svoje pripombe.
Comments were received from several categories of interested parties, such as cooperating exporting producers, their representative associations, their national authorities as well as representatives of importers suggesting that Thailand, India or Indonesia would be a more suitable analogue country than Brazil.
Pripombe so bile prejete od več kategorij zainteresiranih strank, kakor so sodelujoči proizvajalci izvozniki, njihova predstavniška združenja, njihove nacionalne oblasti in predstavniki uvoznikov, ki so predlagali Tajsko, Indijo ali Indonezijo kot primernejšo primerljivo državo od Brazilije.
The Commission examined these proposals in the light of the criteria applied for the analogue country selection.
Komisija je preučila te predloge glede na merila za izbiro primerljive države.
In this respect, the Commission established that the market size for leather footwear in the RIP could be estimated at 189 million pairs for Brazil, 800 million pairs for India, 109 million for Indonesia and only 6 million for Thailand.
V zvezi s tem je Komisija ugotovila, da se lahko velikost trga za usnjeno obutev v OPP oceni na 189 milijonov parov za Brazilijo, 800 milijonov parov za Indijo, 109 milijonov parov za Indonezijo in samo 6 milijonov parov za Tajsko.
In view of the very small size of the Thai market and the availability of other options, the Commission did not further investigate Thailand as a potential analogue country.
Zaradi majhnosti tajskega trga in drugih možnosti, ki so bile na voljo, Komisija ni nadalje preiskovala Tajske kot možne primerljive države.
Consequently, the Commission sought co-operation from footwear producers in Brazil, India and Indonesia, following the requests of the parties.
Posledično je Komisija na podlagi zahtev strank za sodelovanje zaprosila proizvajalce usnja v Braziliji, Indiji in Indoneziji.
Questionnaires were sent to companies in the three countries and meaningful responses were received from five Brazilian, one Indian and five Indonesian producers.
Vprašalniki so bili poslani družbam v vseh treh državah, pomembni odgovori pa so bili prejeti od petih brazilskih, enega indijskega in petih indonezijskih proizvajalcev.
Representativeness of domestic sales and product range
Reprezentativnost domače prodaje in izbor izdelkov
The Commission examined the representativeness of the companies that responded as regards their domestic sales
Komisija je preučila reprezentativnost družb, ki so se odzvale, v zvezi z njihovo domačo prodajo.
As regards Brazil, the three investigated companies had domestic sales of the like product in the investigation period representing around 17 % of Chinese and around 19 % of Vietnamese sampled exports.
Kar zadeva Brazilijo, je domača prodaja podobnega izdelka treh preiskovanih družb v preiskovalnem obdobju predstavljala okrog 17 % kitajskega in 19 % vietnamskega vzorčenega izvoza.
As regards India, only one company came forward, which reported domestic sales of the like product in the investigation period representing around 5 % of Chinese and around 6 % of Vietnamese sampled exports.
Kar zadeva Indijo, se je javila samo ena družba, njena domača prodaja podobnega izdelka v preiskovalnem obdobju pa je predstavljala 5 % kitajskega in 6 % vietnamskega vzorčenega izvoza.
As regards Indonesia, the five cooperating companies had domestic sales of the like product representing around 2 % of Chinese and around 2 % of Vietnamese sampled exports.
Kar zadeva Indonezijo, je domača prodaja podobnega izdelka petih sodelujočih družb v preiskovalnem obdobju predstavljala približno 2 % kitajskega in približno 2 % vietnamskega vzorčenega izvoza.
Brazil was thus the country with the most representative volume of domestic sales in the investigation period.
Brazilija je bila tako država z najbolj reprezentativnim obsegom domače prodaje v preiskovalnem obdobju.
The Commission subsequently examined how many footwear types in respect to those exported by China and Vietnam were covered by the domestic sales in the three countries concerned.
Komisija je nato preiskala, koliko vrst obutve je bilo glede na vrste, ki jih izvažata Kitajska in Vietnam, zajetih v domači prodaji v treh zadevnih državah.
Domestic sales of the cooperating Brazilian and Indonesian producers covered in the RIP a wide product range, matching a significant number of PCNs exported from China and Vietnam.
Domača prodaja sodelujočih brazilskih in indonezijskih proizvajalcev je v OPP pokrivala širok izbor izdelkov, ki so se ujemali z znatnim številom ŠOI, ki jih izvažata Kitajska in Vietnam.
In the case of India, the sole cooperating producer reported domestic sales in the RIP matching only 1 PCN exported by China and Vietnam.
V primeru Indije je edini sodelujoči proizvajalec sporočil domačo prodajo v OPP, ki se je ujemala s samo 1 ŠOI, ki jo izvažata Kitajska in Vietnam.
Competition in the potential analogue countries
Konkurenca v možnih primerljivih državah
According to the data collected by the Commission, all three countries examined have an important number of producers which ensures that there is a high level of competition between domestic operators on their respective markets.
Glede na podatke, ki jih je zbrala Komisija, imajo vse tri preiskovane države pomembno število proizvajalcev, kar zagotavlja visoko raven konkurence med domačimi proizvajalci na njihovih zadevnih trgih.
Brazil has some 7800 leather footwear producers, 1500 of which can be considered of a size sufficiently comparable to Chinese/Vietnamese companies.
Brazilija je imela približno 7800 proizvajalcev usnjene obutve, od katerih se jih glede na velikost 1500 lahko šteje za zadostno primerljive s kitajskimi/vietnamskimi družbami.
India is reported to have some 3000 producers.
Indija ima približno 3000 proizvajalcev.
For Indonesia, the number of producers is estimated to be 212.
Za Indonezijo je število proizvajalcev ocenjeno na 212.
The three countries have substantial exports (estimated around 64 million pairs for Brazil, 67 million for India and 27 million for Indonesia).
Te tri države imajo znaten izvoz (ocenjen na približno 64 milijonov parov za Brazilijo, 67 milijonov parov za Indijo in 27 milijonov parov za Indonezijo).
Brazil was found to have a higher domestic consumption of leather shoes per capita (1) compared to India (0.7) and Indonesia (0.5).
Brazilija ima višjo domačo potrošnjo usnjene obutve na prebivalca (1) v primerjavi z Indijo (0,7) in Indonezijo (0,5).
As regards imports into the countries examined, they reached in the RIP a market share of ca. 2 % in Brazil, ca. 1 % in India and ca. 1,5 % in Indonesia.
Uvoz v preiskovane države je v OPP dosegel tržni delež cca. 2 % v Braziliji, cca. 1 % v Indiji in cca. 1,5 % v Indoneziji.
Based on the above elements, the Commission considered that Brazil was the most suitable choice of analogue country.
Glede na zgornje elemente je Komisija menila, da je Brazilija najprimernejša izbira primerljive države.
In particular, Brazil was found to have the most representative volume of domestic sales in footwear with uppers of leather.
Brazilija ima najbolj reprezentativen obseg domače prodaje obutve z zgornjim delom iz usnja.
In addition, Brazilian cooperating companies produce a wide range of products, largely matching those of China and Vietnam.
Poleg tega brazilske sodelujoče družbe proizvajajo širok izbor izdelkov, ki se večinoma ujemajo s tistimi iz Kitajske in Vietnama.
Indonesian cooperating producers, who had also a wide range of products, had much lower domestic sales, while Indian domestic sales, although at substantial volumes, were of a very limited range.
Indonezijski sodelujoči proizvajalci, ki so prav tako imeli širok izbor izdelkov, so imeli veliko nižji odstotek domače prodaje, medtem ko je imela indonezijska domača prodaja, kljub znatnemu obsegu, zelo omejen izbor.
Comments by interested parties
Pripombe zainteresiranih strank
Several parties claimed that Brazil should not be used as analogue market, because it specialises only in women's footwear.
Več strank je trdilo, da Brazilija ne bi smela biti uporabljena kot primerljiva država, ker je specializirana samo za žensko obutev.
They argued that this could be demonstrated by the questionnaire replies of the Brazilian cooperating companies and by the fact that Brazil exports mostly women's shoes.
Trdile so, da to kažejo izpolnjeni vprašalniki brazilskih sodelujočih družb in dejstvo, da Brazilija večinoma izvaža žensko obutev.
However, the investigation showed that more than half of the total domestic sales reported by the cooperating Brazilian companies were mens’ shoes.
Vendar je preiskava pokazala, da je bila več kot polovica skupne domače prodaje, ki so jo sporočila brazilska sodelujoča podjetja, moška obutev.
During the verification visits the Commission made to the Brazilian producers, it was found that while the two smaller companies were indeed more specialised in women's footwear, the largest one sold predominantly men's footwear on the domestic market.
Med preveritvenimi obiski brazilskih proizvajalcev, ki jih je izvedla Komisija, je bilo ugotovljeno, da sta bili dve manjši družbi sicer res bolj specializirani za žensko obutev, medtem ko je največja na domačem trgu prodajala pretežno moško obutev.
Domestic market sales were hence made in sufficient quantities for women's as well as men's footwear types.
Prodaja na domačem trgu je bila zato dovolj visoka tako za ženske kot za moške vrste obutve.
As regards the argument that Brazil's exports are mainly women's footwear, the Commission does not consider that the pattern of a country's exports necessarily corresponds to that of products sold on its domestic market.
Glede argumenta, da brazilski izvoz zajema pretežno žensko obutev, Komisija meni, da vzorec izvoza države ni nujno enak prodaji izdelka na njenem domačem trgu.
Some parties submitted that questionnaire responses showed that Brazil specialises in sandals which therefore cannot be compared to the footwear types exported from China and Vietnam, which cover a larger variety.
Nekatere stranke so pripomnile, da so izpolnjeni vprašalniki pokazali, da je Brazilija specializirana za sandale, ki pa jih ni mogoče primerjati z vrstami obutve, ki se izvažajo iz Kitajske in Vietnama in zajemajo več vrst.
The examination by the Commission did not confirm this claim, but showed that Brazilian producers sold a wide range of footwear types, which translated at PCN-level into a more than 50 % matching rate with the models exported by the Chinese and Vietnamese companies in the samples.
Preiskava Komisije te trditve ni potrdila, je pa pokazala, da so brazilski proizvajalci prodali širok izbor obutve, ki je na ravni ŠOI pokazala več kot 50 % ujemanje z modeli, ki jih izvažajo kitajske in vietnamske družbe iz vzorcev.
Some parties argued that Brazil could not be used as analogue country for children footwear, because it has a very small production of this type of shoes.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da Brazilija ne more biti uporabljena kot primerljiva država za otroško obutev, ker ima zelo majhno proizvodnjo te vrste obutve.
The Commission notes that it is not unusual that an analogue country does not produce all sub-types of the like product.
Komisija opozarja, da za primerljivo državo ni neobičajno, da ne proizvaja vseh podtipov podobnega izdelka.
However, this does not prevent that a fair comparison of normal value can be established by making proper adjustments for this type.
Vendar to ne preprečuje, da bi se vzpostavila poštena primerjava normalne vrednosti z ustreznim popravkom za to vrsto.
As indeed none of the Brazilian cooperating producers manufactured children's footwear, the normal value for this type was calculated, as in the original investigation, by appropriately adjusting the normal value calculated for adults’ shoes.
Ker dejansko nobeden od sodelujočih brazilskih proizvajalcev ni izdeloval otroške obutve, je bila normalna vrednost za to vrsto tako kot v prvotni preiskavi izračunana s ustreznim popravkom normalne vrednosti, izračunane za čevlje za odrasle.
It is therefore concluded that Brazil could be used as analogue country for all types of leather footwear, including children's shoes.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da je Brazilija lahko uporabljena kot primerljiva država za vse vrste usnjene obutve, vključno z otroško obutvijo.
Some parties submitted that footwear produced in Brazil uses high quality leather and has therefore higher prices than China and Vietnam.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da je obutev, izdelana v Braziliji, iz visoko kakovostnega usnja in ima zato višje cene kot na Kitajskem in v Vietnamu.
It would therefore not be comparable to the footwear originating in the two countries under investigation.
Zato ni primerljiva z obutvijo s poreklom iz teh dveh držav, ki sta predmet preiskave.
Some other interested party on the contrary submitted that the Brazilian prices needed to be properly adjusted because the leather of Brazilian footwear was of lower quality than the leather used in China and Vietnam.
Nekatere druge zainteresirane stranke so nasprotno trdile, da je treba brazilske cene ustrezno prilagoditi, saj je usnje brazilske obutve nižje kakovosti kot usnje, ki se uporablja na Kitajskem in v Vietnamu.
The Commission examined this matter and found that in terms of prices and quality there was no difference in the leather used for footwear produced in Brazil and that used for footwear produced in China and Vietnam.
Komisija je zadevo preučila in ugotovila, da glede cen in kakovosti med usnjem za obutev, izdelano v Braziliji, in usnjem za obutev, izdelano na Kitajskem in v Vietnamu, ni nobene razlike.
It is recalled in this context that an adjustment to the normal value was applied in the original case, because leather used by the Brazilian analogue country producers was found to be of lower quality and sold at lower prices as compared to the leather used by the sampled producers in the export countries.
V zvezi s tem se opozarja, da je bila v prvotnem primeru prilagoditev na normalno vrednost uporabljena, ker je bilo usnje, ki so ga uporabljali proizvajalci primerljive države Brazilije, nižje kakovosti in se je prodajalo po nižjih cenah v primerjavi z usnjem, ki so ga uporabljali vzorčeni proizvajalci v državah izvoznicah.
In the current review investigation, producers in Brazil (and most producers in the export countries) are different from those that co-operated with the original investigation.
V sedanji preiskavi zaradi izteka ukrepov so proizvajalci v Braziliji (in večina proizvajalcev v državah izvoznicah) drugačni od tistih, ki so sodelovali v prvotni preiskavi.
In turn, the different mix in companies resulted in different leather input costs.
Drugačna sestava družb se je odražala v drugačnih nabavnih stroških usnja.
Some parties expressed the view that Brazilian and Vietnamese products are not comparable, arguing that Brazil exports expensive high-end footwear while Vietnam exports low-priced products, but did not submit substantiating evidence on this.
Nekatere stranke so izrazile mnenje, da brazilski in vietnamski izdelki niso primerljivi, ker Brazilija izvaža drago visokokakovostno obutev, medtem ko Vietnam izvaža izdelke po nizkih cenah, vendar o tem niso predložile utemeljenih dokazov.
The Commission notes that in any event Vietnamese products would have to be compared to products sold on the Brazilian domestic market, not to those exported from Brazil.
Komisija ugotavlja, da bi morali biti v vsakem primeru vietnamski izdelki primerjani z izdelki, ki se prodajajo na brazilskem domačem trgu, in ne s tistimi, ki se izvažajo iz Brazilije.
The Commission did not find any evidence that the footwear originating in Vietnam or sold in Brazil was limited to a specific market segment.
Komisija ni našla dokazov, da bi bila obutev s poreklom iz Vietnama ali prodajana v Braziliji omejena na določen segment trga.
Competition on the Brazilian market
Konkurenca na brazilskem trgu
Some parties submitted that Brazil had increased its tariffs on footwear from 20 % to 35 % as of January 2008 and argued that this rendered Brazil a highly protected market with reduced competition.
Nekatere stranke so trdile, da je od januarja 2008 Brazilija zvišala svoje tarife na obutev z 20 % na 35 % in da je tako ustvarila močno zaščiten trg z zmanjšano konkurenco.
They also argued that the market share held by imports in Brazil was too low with respect to consumption.
Prav tako so trdile, da je glede na potrošnjo tržni delež uvoza iz Brazilije premajhen.
The Commission examined these claims.
Komisija je preučila te trditve.
It was found that Brazil indeed raised its tariffs from 20 % to 35 % in the beginning of 2008, i.e. in the middle of the RIP.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je Brazilija v začetku leta 2008, tj. sredi OPP, resnično dvignila svoje tarife z 20 % na 35 %.
