CRIA and CCCME also pointed out that other anti-dumping investigating authorities treated new and retreaded tyres separately.
imajo nove in protektirane pnevmatike različne oznake KN.
CRIA and CCCME submitted that the Commission erred in its assessment with regard to the factors of relevance, by not treating new and retreaded tyres separately.
Te stranke so opozorile tudi, da sta Komisija in Sodišče Evropske unije (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Sodišče) v več zadevah s področja konkurence ugotovila, da nove pnevmatike in protektirane pnevmatike zajemajo dva različna upoštevna trga v smislu cene, strukture ponudbe, dobavnih poti in zamenljivosti.
The Giti Group claimed that retreadable or multi-life tyres should be excluded from the definition of the product concerned as retreadable tyres are more sophisticated than non-retreadable tyres with distinctive technical features.
CRIA in CCCME sta poudarila tudi, da drugi protidampinški preiskovalni organi nove in protektirane pnevmatike obravnavajo ločeno.
The Commission found that the retreading process preserves the main characteristics, the components, and the structure of the tyre resulting from the initial manufacturing process.
Navedla sta, da se je Komisija zmotila pri svoji oceni, kar zadeva pomembne dejavnike, ker novih in protektiranih pnevmatik ni obravnavala ločeno.
In particular, the key technical specifications of the tyre, namely size, load index and speed rating of the tyre are not modified at the retreading stage.
Skupina Giti Group je trdila, da je treba pnevmatike, ki jih je mogoče protektirati, ali pnevmatike z več življenjskimi cikli izključiti iz opredelitve zadevnega izdelka, saj so pnevmatike, ki jih je mogoče protektirati, bolj izpopolnjene kot pnevmatike, ki jih ni mogoče protektirati, in imajo posebne tehnične lastnosti.
New tyres (retreadable or non-retreadable) and retreaded tyres are made of the same raw materials, of the same components, and have a similar structure.
Komisija je ugotovila, da se s postopkom protektiranja ohranijo glavne lastnosti, sestavni deli in struktura pnevmatike iz prvotnega postopka izdelave.
The main difference in technical characteristics between a newly produced tyre and a retreaded tyre built on its casing is that a retreaded tyre may indeed have a shorter lifespan and the retreaded tyre may be perceived as a less safe option.
Zlasti se v fazi protektiranja ne spremenijo ključne tehnične specifikacije pnevmatike, tj. velikost, indeks obremenitve in hitrostni razred pnevmatike.
However, exactly the same technical, quality and safety perception differences arise between two new tyres from different tiers.
Nove pnevmatike (ki jih je mogoče protektirati ali ne) in protektirane pnevmatike so izdelane iz enakih surovin, iz istih sestavnih delov in imajo podobno strukturo.
In particular, lower tier tyres have also lower mileage and they will not be a preferred option for vehicles that need to comply to very high safety standards namely the ones carrying dangerous goods.
Glavna razlika v tehničnih lastnostih med novo izdelano in protektirano pnevmatiko, pritrjeno na njeno karkaso, je, da ima lahko protektirana pnevmatika dejansko krajšo življenjsko dobo in se lahko dojema kot manj varna.
Therefore, the Commission provisionally rejected the claim that new (retreadable or non-retreadable) and retreaded tyres have different basic physical, chemical and technical characteristics.
Vendar pa se povsem enake tehnične razlike, in sicer razlike glede kakovosti in dojemanja varnosti, pojavljajo tudi glede dveh novih pnevmatik iz različnih razredov.
The Commission further found that both new and retreaded tyres are used by owners of lorries or buses, mainly active in the sector of short to long haul transportation of persons or goods.
Zlasti imajo pnevmatike nižjega razreda tudi nižje število prevoženih kilometrov in niso prednostna možnost za vozila, ki morajo izpolnjevati zelo stroge varnostne standarde, tj. tiste, ki prevažajo nevarno blago.
Therefore, the essential end use of new and retreaded tyres is the same.
Zato je Komisija začasno zavrnila trditev, da imajo nove pnevmatike (ki jih je mogoče protektirati ali ne) in protektirane pnevmatike različne osnovne fizikalne, kemične in tehnične lastnosti.
The Commission also found that new and retreaded tyres have the same four main types of application namely steer, drive, trailer and all-position and are subject to the same safety requirements on the Union market as set in the relevant legislation.
Komisija je nadalje ugotovila, da nove in protektirane pnevmatike uporabljajo lastniki tovornjakov ali avtobusov, ki so v glavnem dejavni v sektorju prevoza oseb in blaga na kratke do dolge razdalje.
Therefore the claim that new and retreaded tyres have different applications was provisionally rejected.
Zato je osnovna končna uporaba novih in protektiranih pnevmatik enaka.
The Commission agreed that retreaded tyres differ from tier 1 new tyres to the extent that they are not sold on the original equipment market.
Komisija je tudi ugotovila, da imajo nove in protektirane pnevmatike enake štiri glavne vrste uporabe, tj. za krmiljeno os, pogonsko os, os priklopnega vozila in vse položaje, ter da zanje veljajo enake varnostne zahteve na trgu Unije, kot so določene v ustrezni zakonodaji.
The Commission also found that exactly the same is true for tier 3 tyres and to a large extent to tier 2 brands which are not sold on the original equipment market either.
Zato je bila trditev, da imajo nove in protektirane pnevmatike različne uporabe, začasno zavrnjena.
Therefore, the Commission provisionally rejected the claim that new and retreaded tyres have different sales channels.
Komisija se je strinjala, da se protektirane pnevmatike razlikujejo od novih pnevmatik prvega razreda, ker se ne prodajajo na trgu originalne opreme.
Regarding the Commission's competition decisions and the ECJ judgment in which retreaded tyres were found to be a separate product market, this is in fact irrelevant for the product definition in trade defence investigations.
Komisija je poleg tega ugotovila, da enako velja za pnevmatike tretjega razreda in v veliki meri za znamke drugega razreda, ki se prav tako ne prodajajo na trgu originalne opreme.
The market definition in a merger case focuses on demand-side and supply-side substitution.
Zato je začasno zavrnila trditev, da imajo nove in protektirane pnevmatike različne prodajne kanale.
In an anti-dumping investigation, the market is defined by the physical, technical and chemical characteristics of the product concerned.
Kar zadeva sklepe Komisije na področju konkurence in sodbo Sodišča, v katerih je bilo ugotovljeno, da so protektirane pnevmatike ločen proizvodni trg, to ni relevantno za opredelitev izdelka v preiskavah o trgovinski zaščiti.
Therefore, the Commission rejected this claim.
Opredelitev trga v zadevi o združitvi je osredotočena na zamenljivost na strani povpraševanja in strani ponudbe.
Regarding the claim concerning the product definition in anti-dumping cases in third countries, the Commission pointed out that the product definition falls within the wide margin of discretion of the investigating authority in trade defence matters.
V okviru protidampinške preiskave je trg opredeljen na podlagi fizikalnih, tehničnih in kemičnih lastnosti zadevnega izdelka.
Therefore, the way that investigating authorities in third countries used their discretion in this respect cannot limit the margin of discretion of the Commission for the purposes of this investigation.
Zato je Komisija zavrnila trditev.
It was also submitted that the product concerned should not be covered by several CN codes.
V zvezi s trditvijo glede opredelitve izdelka v protidampinških zadevah v tretjih državah je Komisija poudarila, da ima preiskovalni organ v zadevah trgovinske zaščite precejšnjo diskrecijsko pravico glede opredelitve izdelka.
In this regard, the Commission recalled, first, that it is very common that a single product concerned is covered by several CN codes.
Zato način, na katerega preiskovalni organi v tretjih državah uporabljajo svojo diskrecijsko pravico v zvezi s tem, ne more omejevati diskrecijske pravice Komisije za namene te preiskave.
This arises naturally from the design of the Combined Nomenclature.
Navedena je bila tudi trditev, da zadevni izdelek ne bi smel biti zajet v več oznakah KN.
Furthermore, the Notice of Initiation clearly stated that the CN codes were given for information only.
Komisija je v zvezi s tem opozorila, da je zelo običajno, da je en sam zadevni izdelek zajet v več oznakah KN.
Second, no factual evidence was provided, nor did the Commission find information that the product concerned was defined in such a way that imported retreated and new tyres could not provisionally be found to constitute alternatives to, and compete directly with, retreaded and new tyres produced in the Union.
Do tega prihaja zaradi zasnove kombinirane nomenklature.
The same applies to producer and consumer perceptions, channels of distribution, or other factors as to the existence of a single or multiple product categories as opposed to the differentiation between new and retreaded tyres for the purposes of this investigation.
Poleg tega je v obvestilu o začetku jasno navedeno, da so oznake KN zgolj informativne.
Lastly, interested parties submitted that, arising from the market segmentation in the Union, retreaded tyres are perceived to be of lower quality than tier 1 new tyres, even if they are made on a tier 1 tyre-casing.
Drugič, predloženih ni bilo nobenih dokazov, pa tudi Komisija ni bila seznanjena s tovrstnimi informacijami, da je bil zadevni izdelek opredeljen tako, da se uvožene protektirane in nove pnevmatike začasno niso mogle šteti kot alternativna možnost protektiranim in novim pnevmatikam, proizvedenim v Uniji, ter jim neposredno konkurirati.
The Commission accepted this claim which is in line with the tier mapping established for this investigation, and only considered retreaded tyres in tiers 2 and 3.
Enako velja za dojemanje proizvajalcev in potrošnikov, distribucijske kanale ali druge dejavnike, kot je obstoj ene ali več kategorij proizvodov, v nasprotju z razlikovanjem med novimi in protektiranimi pnevmatikami za namene te preiskave.
Like product
Nazadnje, zainteresirane strani so trdile, da se zaradi segmentacije trga v Uniji protektirane pnevmatike dojemajo kot nižje kakovosti kot nove pnevmatike prvega razreda, čeprav so izdelane na karkasi pnevmatike prvega razreda.
The investigation showed that the following products have the same basic physical characteristics as well as the same basic uses:
Komisija je sprejela to trditev, ki je v skladu z evidenco, opredeljeno v okviru te preiskave, in preučila le protektirane pnevmatike drugega in tretjega razreda.
the product produced and sold on the domestic market of Brazil, which served provisionally as an analogue country,
Preiskava je pokazala, da imajo naslednji izdelki enake osnovne fizikalne lastnosti ter enake osnovne uporabe:
the product produced and sold in the Union by the Union industry.
zadevni izdelek,
The Commission decided at this stage that those products are therefore like products within the meaning of Article 1(4) of the basic Regulation.

izdelek, ki ga v Uniji proizvaja in prodaja industrija Unije.
Normal value
Komisija se je v tej fazi odločila, da so navedeni izdelki zato podobni izdelki v smislu člena 1(4) osnovne uredbe.
Market economy treatment (‘MET’)
DAMPING
Under Article 2(7)(a) and (b) of the basic Regulation the Commission is to determine normal value on the basis of the price or constructed value in a market economy third country in the case of imports from non-market economy countries, unless the exporter can show that it operates under market-economy conditions.
Normalna vrednost
CCCMC and CRIA claimed that after the expiry of paragraph 15(a)(ii) of the Protocol on the Accession of the PRC to the World Trade Organisation (‘WTO’) on 11 December 2016 the general rules for the determination of normal value should apply to Chinese exporters.
Tržnogospodarska obravnava (v nadaljnjem besedilu: TGO)
In this respect, they claimed that the use of a non-market economy methodology to reach a determination after 11 December 2016 is contrary to the Union's WTO obligations.
V skladu s členom 2(7)(a) in (b) osnovne uredbe Komisija v primeru uvoza iz držav brez tržnega gospodarstva določi normalno vrednost na podlagi cene ali računsko določene vrednosti v tretji državi s tržnim gospodarstvom, razen če izvoznik lahko dokaže, da deluje pod pogoji tržnega gospodarstva.
Consequently, the relevant legislation applicable to this proceeding is the basic Regulation in its version applicable at the time of initiation.
Trdila sta, da normalna vrednost ne sme temeljiti na primerljivi državi, ampak na podatkih o kitajski prodaji in stroških.
The normal value is therefore to be established on the basis of Article 2(7)(a) and (b) of the basic Regulation as applicable at the date of initiation of this investigation in August 2017.
Le zaradi lažjega sklicevanja so spodaj na kratko povzeta merila TGO:
Therefore, the claims by the CCCMC and CRIA are rejected.
poslovne odločitve se sprejemajo kot odziv na tržne razmere in brez znatnega vmešavanja države, pri čemer stroški odražajo tržne vrednosti,
Briefly, and for ease of reference only, the MET criteria are as follows:
podjetja imajo jasno določeno zbirko osnovnih računovodskih evidenc, ki se pregledujejo neodvisno, v skladu z mednarodnimi računovodskimi standardi in se uporabljajo v vse namene,
business decisions are made in response to market conditions and without significant State interference, and costs reflect market values,
ni večjih izkrivljanj, ki se prenašajo še iz predhodnega sistema netržnega gospodarstva,
firms have one clear set of basic accounting records, which are independently audited, in line with international accounting standards and applied for all purposes,
pravno varnost in stabilnost zagotavljata stečajno pravo in pravo lastninskih razmerij ter
there are no significant distortions carried over from the former non-market economy system,
menjava valut se izvaja po tržnem tečaju.
legal certainty and stability is provided by bankruptcy and property laws, and
Komisija je pri ugotavljanju, ali so merila iz člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe izpolnjena, potrebne informacije zbrala tako, da je proizvajalce izvoznike pozvala, naj izpolnijo obrazec zahtevka za TGO.
currency exchanges are carried out at the market rate.
Dve od štirih vzorčenih sodelujočih družb, skupina Giti Group in skupina Hankook Group, sta zahtevali TGO in odgovorili v predpisanem roku.
For the determination whether the criteria in Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation are met, the Commission sought the necessary information by asking the exporting producers to fill in the MET claim form.
Zato je bila glede teh dveh skupin družb sprejeta ocena za TGO.
Two out of the four sampled cooperating companies the Giti Group and the Hankook Group claimed MET and replied within the deadline.
Komisija je poiskala vse potrebne informacije in preverila vse informacije iz zahtevka za TGO v prostorih večjih pravnih subjektov obeh skupin.
Therefore, a MET determination was made in respect of these two groups of companies.
V primeru povezanih strank je Komisija preverila, ali skupina povezanih družb kot celota izpolnjuje pogoje za TGO.
The Commission sought all the information deemed necessary and verified all the information submitted in the MET claims at the premises of the major legal entities of both groups.
Zato se je preiskava v zvezi s TGO, kadar je v proizvodnjo ali prodajo zadevnega izdelka neposredno ali posredno vključena podrejena družba ali katera koli druga družba, povezana z vlagateljem iz LRK, izvedla za vsako družbo posebej in za skupino družb kot celoto.
In case of related parties, the Commission examined whether the group of the related companies as a whole fulfilled the conditions for MET.
Nobena od obeh skupin, ki sta zahtevali TGO, ni dokazala, da izpolnjuje vsa merila iz člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe.
Therefore, in cases where a subsidiary or any other company related to the applicant in the PRC is involved, directly or indirectly, in the production or sales of the product concerned, the MET examination was carried out in respect of each company individually as well as to the group of companies as a whole.
Natančneje, nobena od njiju ni dokazala, da imata bodisi posamezno bodisi kot skupina jasno zbirko računovodskih izkazov, ki se revidirajo neodvisno in v skladu z mednarodnimi računovodskimi standardi, zato nista izpolnjevali merila št. 2 v zvezi s TGO.
Both groups claiming MET failed to demonstrate that they fulfilled all of the criteria laid down in Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation.
Poleg tega nobena od njiju ni dokazala, da nista bili podvrženi znatnemu izkrivljanju, ki se prenaša še iz predhodnega sistema netržnega gospodarstva.
More specifically, both groups failed to demonstrate, either individually or as a group, that they had one set of clear set of accounts that were independently audited in line with international accounting standards and therefore did not fulfil MET criterion 2.
Zato te družbe oziroma skupina družb niso izpolnile merila št. 3 v zvezi s TGO.
Moreover, both groups failed to demonstrate that they were not to subject to significant distortions carried over from the former non-market economy system.
Natančneje, obe skupini proizvajalcev izvoznikov sta uživali ugodnosti preferenčnih davčnih režimov.
Accordingly, these companies, or group of companies, did not fulfil MET criterion 3.
Poleg tega skupini Hankook Group ni uspelo dokazati, da se država ni bistveno vmešavala in da stroški glavnih surovin dejansko odražajo tržne vrednosti.
More specifically, both groups of exporting producers benefitted from preferential tax regimes.
Zato torej ta skupina ni dokazala, da je izpolnila merilo št. 1 v zvezi s TGO.
In addition, the Hankook Group failed to demonstrate that there is no significant State interference and that costs of major inputs substantially reflect market values.
Komisija je ugotovitve razkrila zadevnim proizvajalcem izvoznikom, organom zadevne države in industriji Unije.
Thus, this Group failed also to demonstrate that it fulfilled MET criterion 1.
Zainteresirane strani so izrazile pripombe na te ugotovitve.
The Commission disclosed the findings to both exporting producers concerned, to the authorities of the country concerned and to the Union industry.
Skupina Hankook Group je trdila, da vmešavanje države, ugotovljeno v okviru merila št. 1, ni bilo znatno.
Interested parties commented on the findings.
Obe skupini sta menili, da pomanjkljivosti v njunih računovodskih sistemih niso bile pomembne.
The Hankook Group argued that the State interferences found under criterion 1 were not significant.
Poleg tega sta trdili, da ugodnejši davčni režim v okviru merila št. 3 v zvezi s TGO ni pomenil znatnega izkrivljanja.
Both groups considered that the shortcomings in their respective accounting systems were not material.
Te pripombe niso postavile pod vprašaj dejanskih ugotovitev, temveč le izrazile alternativno pravno opredelitev.
They also maintained that the preferential tax regime under MET criterion 3 did not constitute a significant distortion.
Vendar pa glede na obseg in resnost ugotovljenih pomislekov v okviru vseh treh meril te pripombe niso spremenile ugotovitev Komisije.
Those comments did not put into question the factual findings, but merely expressed an alternative legal qualification.
Vsi vložniki so bili 9. aprila 2017 po obvestitvi držav članic v skladu s členom 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe individualno in uradno obveščeni o dokončni odločitvi Komisije v zvezi z njihovimi zahtevki za TGO.
However, given the magnitude and seriousness of issues found under all three criteria, those comments were not such as to alter the Commission's findings.
V skladu z navedenim niti skupina Giti Group niti skupina Hankook Group nista mogli dokazati, da izpolnjujeta vsa merila TGO iz člena 2(7)(c) osnovne uredbe, zato jima ni bilo mogoče odobriti TGO.
After having informed the Member States in accordance with Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation, all applicants were individually and formally informed, on 9 April 2017, of the Commission's final determination with regard to their respective MET claim.
Primerljiva država
Accordingly, neither the Giti Group nor the Hankook Group could show that they fulfilled all the MET criteria set out in Article 2(7)(c) of the basic Regulation and therefore could not be granted MET.
V skladu s členom 2(7)(a) osnovne uredbe se je normalna vrednost določila na podlagi cene ali konstruirane vrednosti v tretji državi s tržnim gospodarstvom za vse proizvajalce izvoznike.
Analogue country
V ta namen je bilo treba izbrati tretjo državo s tržnim gospodarstvom (v nadaljnjem besedilu: primerljiva država).
According to Article 2(7)(a) of the basic Regulation normal value was determined on the basis of the price or constructed value in a market economy third country for all the exporting producers.
Komisija je v obvestilu o začetku zainteresirane strani obvestila, da namerava kot primerno primerljivo državo uporabiti ZDA, in jih pozvala, naj predložijo pripombe.
For this purpose, a market economy third country had to be selected (‘the analogue country’).
Komisija je v zvezi z izbiro primerljive države prejela pripombe treh zainteresiranih strani:
In the Notice of Initiation, the Commission informed interested parties that it considered the USA as an appropriate analogue country and invited interested parties to comment.
skupine Giti Group,
The Commission received comments from three interested parties regarding the selection of the analogue country:

the Giti Group,
Tako CRIA/CCCMC kot skupina Giti Group so nasprotovali uporabi ZDA kot primerljive države.
the complainant.
Menili so tudi, da Japonska in Koreja (čeprav v manjšem obsegu) nista primerni državi ter da bi bila najprimernejša primerljiva država Tajska.
Both CRIA/CCCMC and the Giti Group argued against the USA as analogue country.
Skupina Giti Group je prav tako trdila, da se Turčija ne more uporabiti kot ustrezna država zaradi trgovinskih omejitev in drugačnega dostopa do surovin.
They also considered that Japan and Korea (albeit to a lesser extent) are not appropriate countries, while Thailand would be the most appropriate analogue country.
CRIA/CCCMC sta pozvala Komisijo, naj stopi v stik z morebitnimi proizvajalci v primerljivih državah, tj. Turčiji, Tajski, Braziliji in Arabski republiki Egipt (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Egipt).
The Giti Group also argued that Turkey could not serve as an appropriate country given the presence of trade restrictions and different access to raw materials.
Pritožnik je nasprotoval uporabi Tajske kot primerljive države in ponovno izrazil mnenje, da so ZDA najprimernejša primerljiva država.
CRIA/CCCMC invited the Commission to reach out to possible analogue country producers in Turkey, Thailand, Brazil and the Arab Republic of Egypt (‘Egypt’).
Komisija je pridobila zanesljive kontaktne podatke 22 proizvajalcev iz osmih držav (ZDA, Japonske, Koreje, Turčije, Indije, Tajske, Južne Afrike in Brazilije).
The complainant objected to Thailand as an analogue country and reiterated its view that the USA was the most suitable analogue country.
Stopila je v stik s temi 22 družbami in jih pozvala, naj sodelujejo kot proizvajalci iz primerljive države, ter prejela odgovore na vprašalnik od štirih proizvajalcev iz ZDA, Južne Afrike, Tajske in Brazilije (od enega proizvajalca iz vsake od teh držav).
The Commission got reliable contact details for 22 producers from eight countries (the USA, Japan, Korea, Turkey, India, Thailand, South Africa and Brazil).
Izpolnjeni vprašalnik enega proizvajalca iz ZDA ni vseboval informacij, ki bi se skladale z vprašalnikom, proizvajalec pa ni hotel predložiti manjkajočih informacij.
