Expiry Review No. RR-2001-004
NOTICE OF CANCELLATION OF HEARING
On October 15, 2001, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) gave notice that, pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), it would initiate an expiry review of its finding made on June 27, 1997, in Inquiry No. NQ-96-004, concerning concrete panels, reinforced with fiberglass mesh, originating in or exported from the United States of America and produced by or on behalf of Custom Building Products, its successors and assigns, for use or consumption in the province of British Columbia or Alberta.
A public hearing was scheduled to take place in Vancouver, British Columbia, beginning on May 6, 2002.
In the course of its inquiry, the Tribunal concluded that the demand in the Alberta and British Columbia market is now, to a substantial degree, supplied by producers of like goods located elsewhere in Canada and, accordingly, this area no longer constitutes a regional market. Hence, the necessary precondition for a determination under subsection 76.03(10) of SIMA, that the expiry of the finding in Inquiry No. NQ-96-004 is likely to result in injury to the domestic industry, is no longer met.
As a result, the Tribunal has cancelled the hearing scheduled to begin on May 6, 2002, in Vancouver.
