Proposal for a regulation
Recital 21
(21) The Commission should have the power, on its own initiative, to examine any information on foreign subsidies. To this end, it is necessary to establish a procedure consisting of two steps, namely a preliminary review and an in-depth investigation. The Commission should be able to act upon information received from any relevant source, including Member States and undertakings or their respective trade associations. If an EU wide trade association, representing 15 % or more of the sector concerned, is asking the Commission to launch an investigation, the Commission shall do so.
