The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) has issued a notice that it will initiate an expiry review of its findings made on July 30, 2004 concerning the dumping of cold drawn and annealed stainless steel round wire, up to and including 0.300 inches (7.62 mm) in maximum solid cross-sectional dimension, originating in or exported from the Republic of Korea, Switzerland and the United States of America, and the subsidizing of such product originating in or exported from India.
On September 23, 2008, the CITT informed interested persons and governments of the impending expiry of the findings. On the basis of available information, including representations requesting or opposing the initiation of an expiry review and responses to these representations received by the CITT in reply to the notice of expiry, the CITT is of the opinion that an expiry review of the findings is warranted. The CITT has notified the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), as well as other interested persons and governments, of its decision.
If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the findings in respect of any goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and subsidizing, the CBSA will provide the CITT with the information that is required under the CITT rules. The CITT will then conduct an inquiry to determine if the continued or resumed dumping and subsidizing is likely to result in injury or retardation. The CITT will issue its order and its statement of reasons no later than July 29, 2009.
