REPORT (2020) OF THE COMMITTEE ON ANTI-DUMPING PRACTICES

(ADOPTED 28 OCTOBER 2020)

1 ORGANIZATION OF THE WORK OF THE COMMITTEE ON ANTI-DUMPING PRACTICES

1. The Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of GATT 1994 ("the Agreement") entered into force on 1 January 1995. All Members of the WTO are ipso facto members of the Committee on Anti-Dumping Practices ("the Committee") established under the Agreement.

2. Observer governments in the General Council of the WTO have Observer status in the Committee. The International Monetary Fund, World Bank and UNCTAD have regular Observer status in the Committee. Pursuant to a decision of the Committee in October 1998, the Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States ("OACPS") and the OECD are invited to attend meetings on an ad hoc basis. Requests for Observer status from the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa and the Gulf Organization for Industrial Consulting are under consideration by Members.

3. This report covers the period 20 November 2019 – 28 October 2020 ("the review period"). During the review period, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Committee held only one1 regular meeting, on 28 October 2020.

4. As of the beginning of the review period, Ms Lenka ŠUSTROVÁ (Czech Republic) was Chair and Ms Leticia Margarita Ramirez Aguilar (Mexico) was Vice-Chair of the Committee. At the end of its regular meeting in October 2020, the Committee elected Ms Maarit Keitanen (Finland) as Chair and Mr Craig Barrington Douglas (Jamaica) as Vice-Chair.

2 NOTIFICATION AND EXAMINATION OF ANTI-DUMPING LAWS AND/OR REGULATIONS OF MEMBERS

5. Pursuant to Article 18.5 of the Agreement and a decision of the Committee in February 1995, all Members having new or existing legislation and/or regulations which apply in whole or in part to anti-dumping duty investigations or reviews covered by the Agreement are requested to notify the full and integrated text of such legislation and/or regulations to the Committee. Changes in a Member's legislation and/or regulations are also to be notified. If a Member has no such legislation or regulations, the Member is to inform the Committee of this fact. The Committee also decided that Observer governments should comply with these notification obligations.

1 Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the spring meeting of the Committee which was scheduled to be held in the week of 27 April 2020 had to be cancelled. The Chair of the Committee, Ms Lenka ŠUSTROVÁ, sent a communication to this effect to Members on 17 March 2020. The Chair consulted with Members to explore possibilities for conducting work remotely/and or through a written question and answer procedure on at least some of the agenda items that would have been discussed at the spring Regular meeting, and informed Members in a communication dated 13 May 2020 that no consensus had been reached on any of the alternatives proposed. The Chair sent a further communication, regarding the date of the October meeting, to Members on 5 June 2020. The usual document relaying the deadlines for submission of various documentation in conjunction with that meeting was circulated on 22 June 2020 in document G/ADP/W/505. The agenda items that would have been taken up during the spring meeting were carried forward to the October 2020 meeting. The minutes of the October 2020 meeting will be circulated in document G/ADP/M/58.

The Chair highlighted the importance of this notification to the Committee's role in monitoring and discussing actions taken by Members and recalled that the revised minimum information format that had been adopted by the Committee in October 200611 and revised in October 200912 clarified the kinds of actions to be notified and the information to be submitted. The Chair also reiterated the importance of submitting these notifications, as in the case of all other notifications, to the WTO Centre for Registration and Notification ("CRN") with a copy to the Secretary of the Committee. Members were also requested not to resubmit previously submitted notifications and to verify the electronic web-links included in such notifications.
