Expiry reviewU.K.
70.—(1) The TRA may conduct a review to consider whether injury to a UK industry in the goods would be likely to continue or recur if the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount to the relevant goods were to expire (an “expiry review”).
(2) The TRA may make a determination that the anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount should be varied—
(a)by extending the duration; and
(b)where it considers it appropriate, by amending the level.
(3) The TRA must notify interested parties of the expiry of the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount in sufficient time to allow interested parties to make an application for an expiry review.
(4) The TRA may only consider an application for an expiry review if it is made at least three months but not more than 12 months before the scheduled expiry of the relevant anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount.
(5) An expiry review application must include evidence that if the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount were to expire in accordance with the terms of the public notice made under section 13 of the Act, the following would be likely to continue or recur—
(a)the dumping or subsidisation of the goods subject to review; and
(b)the injury caused by the dumped goods or subsidised imports.
(6) In conducting an expiry review, where relevant, the TRA must consider whether—
(a)dumping or subsidisation of the goods subject to review is continuing or is likely to recur;
(b)injury has been removed, or reduced, in whole or in part due to the application of the anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount; and
(c)the circumstances of the relevant exporting country or territory, or overseas exporter, are such that the injury caused by the dumped goods or subsidised imports is likely to continue or recur.
(7) The TRA may only make a determination that the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount to some or all of the goods subject to review be varied in any way other than by extending its duration where it has reassessed—
(a)the margin of dumping or the amount of subsidy; and
(b)the amount adequate to remove the injury.
(8) Where the goods subject to review are subject to an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount, the TRA must have regard to the current and prospective impact of the anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount when making a determination regarding the future application of an anti-dumping or a countervailing amount.
(9) Where an application for an expiry review has been made in accordance with this regulation, an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount which applies to the goods subject to review is to be treated as continuing (where it would otherwise cease to do so) until the TRA has made a determination in accordance with paragraph (11)(a) or the Secretary of State has accepted or rejected the TRA's recommendation in accordance with regulation 76 (acceptance or rejection of the TRA's recommendation by the Secretary of State).
(10) In order to extend the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount pursuant to paragraph (9), the Secretary of State must make a public notice under section 13 of the Act on initiation of the expiry review.
(11) Following an expiry review, the TRA may determine that—
(a)the application of the relevant anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount to some or all of the goods subject to review should expire as set out in the public notice made under section 13 of the Act;
(b)the application of the relevant anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount at the same level to some or all of the goods subject to review should be extended by a period of no more than five years; or
(c)the application of the relevant anti-dumping amount or countervailing amount at a different level to some or all of the goods subject to review should be extended by a period of no more than five years.
(12) Where the TRA determines that the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount be extended in accordance with this regulation, it may make a recommendation under regulation 76 (acceptance or rejection of the TRA's recommendation by the Secretary of State) only if it is satisfied that the application of an anti-dumping amount or a countervailing amount meets the economic interest test (see paragraph 25 of Schedule 4 to the Act).
