Tá idir fhiontair phríobháideacha agus fhiontair phoiblí in earnáil ECCS faoi réir mhaoirseacht agus threorú beartais.
Both public and privately owned enterprises in the ECCS sector are subject to policy supervision and guidance.
#2361042
Ina theannta sin, ní hé an Tuarascáil an t-aon fhoinse fianaise a úsáideann an Coimisiún lena cinneadh, toisc go bpléitear sa roinn reatha den Rialachán seo fianaise bhreise le déanaí ar shaobhadh maidir le hearnáil na cruach, lena n-áirítear táirgeadh ECCS, na hamhábhair a úsáidtear chun ECCS a tháirgeadh, chomh maith le táirgeoirí onnmhairithe ECCS a chumhdaítear leis an imscrúdú seo.
Furthermore, the Report is not the only source of evidence used by the Commission for its determination, as the current section of this Regulation discusses additional recent evidence of distortions concerning the steel sector, including the production of ECCS, the raw materials used to produce ECCS, as well as the ECCS exporting producers covered in this investigation.

Mhaígh Eviosys agus CISA go ndearna crapadh mhargadh ECCS an Aontais díobháil do thionscal an Aontais.
Eviosys and CISA claimed that the contraction of the Union ECCS market caused injury to the Union industry.
#2361625
In IP, bhí tomhaltas iomlán ECCS ag an Aontas [505000-591000] tonna.
In the IP, the total Union consumption of ECCS was [505000-591000] tonnes.
#2361634
Is ó thionscal an Aontais cheana féin a fhaightear thart ar 70 % dá riachtanais ECCS.
Union users and traders already source approximately 70 % of their ECCS needs from Union industry.
#2560356
Úsáidtear ECCS i réimse leathan feidhmeanna, le haghaidh pacáistiú tomhaltóirí agus tionsclaíoch de ghnáth.
ECCS is used in a wide range of applications, typically for consumer and industrial packaging.
#2560524
Tá fabhtanna nó lochtanna áirithe ag ECCS den dara grád, a d’fhéadfadh cosc a chur ar úsáid ECCS san feidhm dár táirgeadh é.
Second quality ECCS has certain flaws or defects which might prevent the use of the ECCS in the application for which it was produced.
#2560528
Mar fhreagairt ar cheann de cheisteanna an Choimisiúin le linn an phróisis easnaimh, luaigh CSN go mbíonn, de ghnáth, ECCS den dara grád céatadán éigin níos ísle ná ECCS den chéad ghrád.
In reply to one of the Commission’s questions during the deficiency process, CSN had mentioned that second quality ECCS is usually a certain percentage lower than first quality.
#2560926
Dá dheasca sin, d’eascródh caillteanais airgeadais ar thaobh úsáideoirí ECCS de chuid an Aontais a allmhairíonn ECCS ón tSín as forchur na mbeart.
Consequently, the imposition of the measurers would result in financial losses on the part of Union ECCS users importing ECCS from China.

#2816543
Thug an Coimisiún dá aire freisin, cé gur thagair CISA i ndáil le gás d’imscrúduithe ECCS agus GOES araon, i ndáil le saothair níor thagair CISA ach d’imscrúdú ECCS amháin.
The Commission also noted that while for gas CISA referred to both ECCS and GOES investigations, for labour CISA referred only to the ECCS investigation.
#2361638
Maidir leis an éifeacht a d’fhéadfadh a bheith aige ar phraghsanna bia, níor thug Eviosys bunús lena mhaíomh go mbeadh ardú ar phraghsanna an bhia mar thoradh ar mhéadú ar phraghsanna ECCS agus, i ndeireadh thiar thall, ar mhéadú ar phraghsanna earraí bia, nó go mbeadh an méadú féideartha sin sa chomhréir chéanna leis an méadú ar phraghsanna ECCS.
Concerning possible effect on food prices, Eviosys did not substantiate its claim to demonstrate that the increase of ECCS’s prices would result in an increase of food packaging prices and ultimately in an increase of foodstuff prices, or that such potential increase would be in the same proportion as the increase of ECCS prices.
#2560911
Tar éis an nochta shealadaigh, d’easaontaigh triúr úsáideoirí, eadhon, Eviosys, CANPACK agus Astir Vitogiannis, go láidir le conclúid tosaigh an Choimisiúin maidir le leas an Aontais agus d’athdhearbhaigh na maímh dá gcuid go bhfuil roinnt saincheisteanna soláthair tromchúiseacha ann agus úsáideoirí ag cur orduithe isteach le táirgeoirí ECCS de chuid an Aontais, rud as a n-eascraíonn ganntanas ar mhargadh an Aontais agus go bhfuil cion suntasach den ECCS a tháirgeann siad á onnmhairiú ag táirgeoirí de chuid an Aontais.
Following provisional disclosure, three users, namely Eviosys, CANPACK and Astir Vitogiannis, strongly disagreed with the Commission’s preliminary conclusion on Union interest and reiterated their claims that there are several serious supply issues when users place orders with Union ECCS producers leading to a shortage on the Union market and that Union producers are exporting a significant portion of their produced ECCS.
#2560925
Dar le CANPACK, d’eascródh difreáil ollmhór idir na praghsanna a thairgfeadh táirgeoirí ECCS de chuid an Aontais agus na Síne as na bearta, rud a d’fhágfadh an fhéidearthacht go n-ardódh na táirgeoirí an Aontais praghsanna sa bhreis ar a ndearnadh cheana, agus go mbeadh dé-oplacht ann ag an dá tháirgeoir mhóra ECCS san Aontas.
In the opinion of CANPACK, the measures would lead to immense differentiation of the prices offered by the Union and Chinese ECCS producers, opening up the possibility of additional price increases by the Union producers, as well as a duopoly of the two major ECCS producers in the Union.
#2560927
Thairis sin, ba cheart an fíoras a chur san áireamh go mbeidh corrlaigh bhrabúis níos ísle ag úsáideoirí ECCS de chuid an Aontais i ngeall ar fhorchur na ndleachtanna frithdhumpála agus go mbeidh orthu aon mhéadú ar phraghsanna ECCS a thabhairt ar aghaidh do thomhaltóirí (ar tomhaltóirí iad atá ag streachailt le boilsciú ard cheana féin) nó, sa chás ba mheasa, go mbeadh orthu a ngníomhaíochtaí a thréigean fiú.
Moreover, account should be taken of the fact that because of the imposition of anti-dumping duties, Union ECCS users will have lower profit margins and will have to pass on to consumers (already struggling with high inflation) any price increase in ECCS or, in the worst case scenario, even abandon their activities.
#2560963
Tar éis an nochta shealadaigh agus an nochta deiridh araon, d’easaontaigh CANPACK le toradh an Choimisiúin go bhfuil rogha mhalartach ag úsáideoirí ECCS an Aontais i bhfoirm sholáthairtí ECCS ó thríú tíortha, i bhfianaise go bhfuil na cuótaí taraife coimirce a dheonaítear do thríú tíortha eile níos ísle ná na cuótaí a dheonaítear don tSín, agus go bhfuil siad á n-ídiú i bhfad níos tapúla.
Both after provisional and final disclosure, CANPACK disagreed, with the Commission’s finding that Union users of ECCS have an alternative in the form of ECCS supplies from third countries, considering that the safeguard tariff quotas granted to other third countries are lower than those granted to China, and are thus being consumed much faster.
#2560978
Thairis sin, mar a mhínítear in aithris (266) den Rialachán sealadach maidir leis an éifeacht fhéideartha ar phraghsanna bia, níor thug Eviosys bunús lena mhaíomh chun a léiriú go mbeadh ardú ar phraghsanna pacáistithe bia mar thoradh ar mhéadú ar phraghsanna ECCS agus, i ndeireadh thiar thall, ar mhéadú ar phraghsanna earraí bia, nó go mbeadh na méaduithe féideartha sin i gcomhréir leis an méadú ar phraghsanna ECCS.
Furthermore, as explained at recital (266) of the provisional Regulation concerning possible effect on food prices, Eviosys did not substantiate its claim to demonstrate that the increase of ECCS prices would result in an increase in food packaging prices, and ultimately in an increase of foodstuff prices, or that such potential increases would be in the same proportion as the increase of ECCS prices.
#2561021
Tar éis an nochta deiridh, thacaigh Eurofer le torthaí an Choimisiúin nach mbeadh MIP ina dhleacht frithdhumpála iomchuí san imscrúdú faoi chaibidil mar gheall ar an méadú géar ar chostais táirgthe le haghaidh ECCS le déanaí, rud a mbíonn tionchar aige ar phraghas díolacháin ECCS.
After final disclosure, Eurofer supported the Commission’s findings that a MIP would not be an appropriate anti-dumping duty in the investigation at hand because of the sharp recent increase in costs of production for ECCS, which impacts the sales price of ECCS.
#2816532
Dúirt CISA, d’ainneoin go bhfuil tréimhsí imscrúdúcháin ECCS agus GOES an-ghar do thréimhse imscrúdúcháin an imscrúdaithe reatha, go bhfuil an difríocht i bpraghsanna idir an t-imscrúdú reatha agus imscrúdú ECCS agus GOES níos mó ná a dhá oiread sin agus dá bhrí sin sáraíodh raon réasúnta leis.
CISA stated that, despite the fact that the investigation periods of ECCS and GOES investigations are very close to the investigation period of the current investigation, the difference in prices between the current investigation and the ECCS and GOES investigation are more than double and therefore it exceeded a reasonable range.
#2360835
Le linn an imscrúdaithe, tháinig sé ar aird an Choimisiúin gurb ann do tháirgeoir breise de chuid an Aontais ar ECCS, eadhon Acciaierie d’Italia.
In the course of the investigation, it came to the Commission’s attention the existence of an additional Union producer of ECCS, namely Acciaierie d’Italia.
#2360939
Sa nóta sin, chuir an Coimisiún liosta ar fáil de na tosca táirgeachta uile amhail amhábhair, saothar agus fuinneamh a úsáideadh chun ECCS a tháirgeadh.
In that note, the Commission provided a list of all factors of production such as raw materials, labour and energy used in the production of ECCS.
#2360960
Thairis sin, liostaigh an gearán saobhadh sonrach sna hamhábhair a úsáideadh chun ECCS a tháirgeadh: Cruach chaol-rollta te (‘HRFS’), cróimiam, amhiarann agus cóc.
Moreover, the complaint listed specific distortions in the raw materials used to produce ECCS: flat hot rolled steel (‘HRFS’), chromium, iron ore and coke.
#2360983
Léirítear sna samplaí seo a leanas an treocht thuas maidir le leibhéal méadaitheach idirghabhála Rialtas na Síne in earnáil ECCS.
The following examples illustrate the above trend of an increasing level of intervention by the GOC in the ECCS sector.
#2360990
Measann Rialtas na Síne gur príomhthionscal é an tionscal cruach, arb í an phríomh-chomhpháirt i dtáirgeadh ECCS í.
The steel industry, which is the main component for the production of ECCS, is regarded as a key industry by the GOC.
#2361007
Go deimhin, nochtadh le linn an imscrúdaithe go mbaineann táirgeoirí ECCS tairbhe as tacaíocht bhreise ón rialtas.
In fact, it was revealed during the investigation that the ECCS producers benefit from additional support by the government.
#2361033
Ar an dara dul síos, mhaígh CISA go bhfuil easpa fianaise ann maidir leis an “saobhadh suntasach” líomhnaithe i ndáil le tionscal ECCS na Síne.
Second, CISA claimed that there is a lack of evidence with regard to the alleged “significant distortions” in relation to the Chinese ECCS industry.
#2361084
A mhalairt ar fad, ní rabhthas in ann sonraí airgeadais a aimsiú ar leibhéal earnála i gcás léiritheoir Turcach ECCS, Ereğli Demir ve •elik Fabrikaları (Erdemir).
On the contrary, for the Turkish ECCS producer Ereğli Demir ve Çelik Fabrikaları (Erdemir), financial data at sectorial level could not be found.
#2361271
Scrúdaigh an Coimisiún an cheist ar cheart measúnú carnach a dhéanamh ar allmhairí ECCS de thionscnamh na dtíortha lena mbaineann, i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 3(4) den bhun-Rialachán.
The Commission examined whether imports of ECCS originating in the countries concerned should be assessed cumulatively in accordance with Article 3(4) of the basic Regulation.
#2361276
Go sonrach, bhí na táirgí allmhairithe in iomaíocht lena chéile agus le ECCS a tháirgtear san Aontas toisc gur díoladh iad trí na bealaí díolacháin céanna agus le catagóirí custaiméirí comhchosúla.
More specifically, the imported products competed with each other and with ECCS produced in the Union because they were sold through the same sales channels and to similar categories of customers.
#2361349
Tá laghdú ag teacht ar chostas méadaithe saothair in aghaidh an tona de chuid ECCS toisc go bhfuil an táirgiúlacht ag dul i laghad.
A declining productivity points to an increased labour cost per tonne of ECCS produced.
#2361387
Mar a mhínítear in aithris (172), tá creatchonarthaí bliantúla idir táirgeoirí agus custaiméirí lena socraítear na cainníochtaí agus na praghsanna ina saintréithe ag tionscal ECCS san Aontas.
As explained in recital (172), the ECCS industry in the Union is characterised by yearly framework contracts between producers and customers that fix the quantities and prices.
#2361416
Cé gur fhan cumas táirgthe thionscal an Aontais cobhsaí, tháinig laghdú 9 % ar úsáid acmhainne idir 2018 agus an IP, as ar eascair costas seasta níos airde in aghaidh an tona ECCS.
While the Union industry’s production capacity remained stable, the capacity utilisation decreased by 9 % between 2018 and the IP, which resulted in higher fixed cost per tonne of ECCS.
#2361422
Tháinig méadú 13 % ar líon na bhfostaithe le linn na tréimhse céanna; Tháinig laghdú 19 % ar an táirgiúlacht, áfach, rud a d’fhág gur airde an costas saothair in aghaidh an tona ECCS.
The number of employees increased during the same period by 13 %; however the productivity decreased by 19 %, resulting in a higher labour cost per tonne of ECCS.
#2361450
Ina theannta sin, sna codanna den chinneadh cumaisc dá dtagraítear ag an úsáideoir, rinne an Coimisiún anailís chomhpháirteach mhargaidh ar stánphláta agus ar ECCS.
In addition, in the parts of the merger decision referred to by the user, the Commission made a joint market analysis of tinplate and ECCS.
#2361570
Dá bhrí sin, mar a fógraíodh san Fhógra Tionscnaimh, i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 7(2a) den bhun-Rialachán, scrúdaigh an Coimisiún tionchar an saobhadh amhábhair ar tháirgeadh ECCS sa tSín.
Therefore, as announced in the Notice of Initiation, in accordance with Article 7(2a) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined the impact of the raw material distortions on the production of ECCS in China.
#2361604
Dá bhrí sin, bheadh rochtain leordhóthanach ag úsáideoirí ar ECCS fiú i gcás ina dtiocfadh laghdú ar na hallmhairí ón tSín de bharr na dleachta níos airde.
Therefore, users would have sufficient access to ECCS even in case the imports from China decrease due to the higher duty.
#2361622
Ar an gcéad dul síos, mhaígh siad go bhfuil deacrachtaí ag táirgeoirí an Aontais cainníochtaí leordhóthanacha ECCS a áirithiú, go háirithe tar éis Brexit a d’eisiadh Tata Cruach ó thionscal an Aontais.
First, they claimed that the Union producers have difficulties to ensure sufficient quantities of ECCS, especially after Brexit that excluded Tata Steel from the Union industry.
#2361628
Léiríonn na figiúirí sin go bhfuil cumas táirgthe leordhóthanach ag tionscal an Aontais chun éileamh iomlán ECCS an Aontais a chumhdach.
These figures show that the Union industry has sufficient production capacity to cover the total Union demand of ECCS.
#2361632
Dhéanfadh iomaíocht ó úsáideoirí atá lonnaithe i dtríú tíortha agus a d’fhéadfadh ECCS níos saoire a bheith ann nach mbeadh faoi réir dleachtanna frithdhumpála difear breise d’úsáideoirí an Aontais.
Competition from users located in third countries that could source cheaper ECCS not subject to anti-dumping duties would further affect Union users.
#2361639
Ina theannta sin, ní úsáidtear ECCS ach le haghaidh na gcannaí bia, agus úsáidtear stánphláta, atá níos costasaí, do chorp na cannaí.
Furthermore, ECCS is only used for food cans’ endings, while tinplate, which is more expensive, is used for the cans’ body.
#2361776
Last, thug CISA faoi deara nach bhfuil an tuarascáil tSín aghaidh a thabhairt ar thionscal na Síne ECCS per se, ach amháin an tionscal cruach Síneach i gcoitinne.
Last, CISA observed that the China report does not address the Chinese ECCS industry per se, but only the Chinese steel industry in general.
#2361792
Mheas na gearánaigh go raibh acmhainn intíre na Síne ag thart ar 990000 tona agus aschur ECCS thart ar 650000 tona in 2018.
The complainants estimated the Chinese domestic capacity for ECCS at around 990000 tonnes and the output of ECCS around 650000 tonnes in 2018.
#2560302
Le linn an imscrúdaithe, tháinig sé ar aird an Choimisiúin gurb ann do tháirgeoir breise de chuid an Aontais ar ECCS, eadhon Acciaierie d’Italia.
In the course of the investigation, it came to the Commission’s attention the existence of an additional Union producer of ECCS, namely Acciaierie d’Italia.
#2560375
Ina theannta sin, chuir CISA i dtábhacht nár bhain an Tuarascáil leis an tionscal ECCS ach gur doiciméad ginearálta é a úsáideann an Coimisiún le haghaidh imscrúduithe ilchineálacha go neamh-idirdhealaitheach.
In addition, CISA underlined that the Report did not concern the ECCS industry but it is simply a one-size-fits-all document which the Commission uses for various investigations indiscriminately.
#2560523
Tá an difríocht ó thaobh cáilíochta den táirge lena mbaineann, sa chás seo cáilíocht ECCS den chéad ghrád agus den dara grád, ann mar gheall ar na saintréithe fisiceacha den táirge.
A difference in quality of the product concerned, in this case first and second quality ECCS, is due to the physical characteristics of the product.
#2560902
Go deimhin, d’fhéadfaidís ECCS a sholáthar ó Baosteel agus ón dá chuideachta eile de chuid na Síne ar chuideachtaí comhoibríocha iad ach nár sampláladh.
Indeed, they could supply ECCS from Baosteel and the other two cooperating but not sampled Chinese companies.
#2560904
Ina theannta sin, d’fhéadfadh úsáideoirí ECCS a allmhairiú ó thríú tíortha eile freisin nach bhfuil faoi réir bearta frithdhumpála.
In addition, users could also import ECCS from other third countries that are not subject to anti-dumping measures.
#2560923
Faoi láthair, is comparáidí leibhéal na bpraghsanna ECCS a thairgeann táirgeoirí de chuid na Síne, nó is airde é fiú ná leibhéal na bpraghsanna atá ar mhargadh an Aontais.
At the moment, the level of ECCS prices offered by Chinese producers is more comparable, or even higher than those on the Union market.
