Tribunal Initiates Expiry Review—Aluminum extrusions from China
Ottawa, November 25, 2024—The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) today initiated an expiry review of its finding made on December 1, 2021, concerning the dumping and subsidizing of certain aluminum extrusions originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China.
The CITT’s finding imposed anti-dumping and countervailing duties on the subject goods. The Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) is responsible for administering the anti-dumping and countervailing duty orders.
In accordance with the Special Import Measures Act, the CITT is required to conduct an expiry review of an order or finding within one year before the order or finding expires. The purpose of an expiry review is to determine whether the continued imposition of an order or finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and/or subsidizing of the subject goods.
Interested persons are invited to file submissions with the CITT by January 8, 2025. A schedule of the Tribunal’s proceedings as well as copies of the CITT’s notice of commencement and the CITT’s guide for filing submissions can be found on the CITT website.
The CITT will hold a public hearing beginning on February 12, 2025, in Ottawa, Ontario. A hearing schedule and a list of parties and their counsel will be issued by the CITT and posted on its website once they are available.
If the CITT concludes that the continued imposition of the order or finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and/or subsidizing, the order or finding will remain in force for a further five years. If the CITT concludes otherwise, the order or finding will expire on March 1, 2026.
