Amendment 98 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 4 – paragraph 6 a (new)
6a. If inputs, parts and components from third countries benefitting from duty drawback are targeted by EU anti- dumping and/or anti-subsidy investigations, the Commission will analyze the additional adverse effects that the duty drawback would have on EU producers. The Commission shall assess the merits of excluding from the scope of the investigation and subsequent measures, the inputs, parts and components incorporated into EU industrial assemblies against the risks of a change in the pattern of trade which may be deemed to circumvent the remedial effects of the duties. Such an exclusion shall be granted unless the risks of circumvention outweigh the benefits.
