Certain Hot-rolled Carbon Steel Plate
Notice of Expiry Review Decision

Ottawa, October 4, 2019

On May 9, 2019, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT), pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiated an expiry review of its finding made on May 20, 2014, in Inquiry No. NQ-2013-005, concerning the dumping of hot rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate originating in or exported from Brazil, Denmark, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, and South Korea.

As a result, on May 10, 2019, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the expiry of the finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods.

The investigation has now been completed and today, pursuant to paragraph 76.03(7)(a) of SIMA, the CBSA has determined that the expiry of the finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of such goods originating in or exported from Brazil, Denmark, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, and South Korea.

A Statement of Reasons that contains additional details concerning the determination made by the CBSA will be posted within 15 days on the CBSA’s website at: www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi/er-rre/menu-eng.html.

The CITT will now conduct an inquiry to determine whether the expiry of its finding is likely to result in injury to the Canadian industry and has announced that it will issue its decision no later than March 13, 2020.
