CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL ISSUES ORDER

HOT-ROLLED CARBON STEEL PLATE AND HIGH-STRENGTH LOW-ALLOY STEEL PLATE FROM BULGARIA, THE CZECH REPUBLIC AND ROMANIA

Ottawa, Ontario, January 8, 2009—The Canadian International Trade Tribunal today issued an order following the expiry review of its finding made on January 9, 2004, in Inquiry No. NQ-2003-002, concerning the dumping of hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate originating in or exported from the Republic of Bulgaria, the Czech Republic and Romania.

The Tribunal found that the dumping of hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate from Bulgaria, the Czech Republic and Romania was likely to result in injury. The Canada Border Services Agency will therefore continue to impose anti-dumping duties on these products.

The Tribunal is an independent quasi-judicial body that reports to Parliament through the Minister of Finance. It hears cases on dumped and subsidized imports, safeguard complaints, complaints about federal government procurement and appeals of customs and excise tax rulings. When requested by the federal government, the Tribunal also provides advice on other economic, trade and tariff matters.
