Notice of Expiry Review of Order

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) hereby gives notice that it will, pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiate an expiry review of its order made on September 12, 2005, in Expiry Review No. RR-2004-006, continuing, with amendment, its order made on September 13, 2000, in Review No. RR-99-005, continuing, without amendment, its order made on September 14, 1995, in Review No. RR-94-007, concerning whole potatoes, excluding seed potatoes, excluding imports during the period from May 1 to July 31, inclusive, of each calendar year, and excluding red potatoes, yellow potatoes and the exotic potato varieties, regardless of packaging, and white and russet potatoes imported in 50-lb. cartons in the following count sizes: 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80, imported from the United States of America, for use or consumption in the province of British Columbia…

…If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the order in respect of any goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the CBSA will provide the Tribunal with the information that is required under the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Rules. The Tribunal will then conduct an inquiry to determine if the continued or resumed dumping is likely to result in injury or retardation. The Tribunal will issue its order and its statement of reasons no later than September 10, 2010.

If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the order in respect of any goods is unlikely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will not consider those goods in its subsequent determination of the likelihood of injury or retardation and will issue an order rescinding the order with respect to those goods.
