An 17 Feabhra 2021, thionscain an Coimisiún imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais i ndáil le hallmhairí den táirge céanna ar de thionscnamh na hIndia agus na hIndinéise é (“an t-imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais”).
On 17 February 2021, the Commission initiated an anti-subsidy investigation with regard to imports of the same product originating in the countries concerned (‘the anti-subsidy investigation’).
Is é seo an chéad imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais maidir leis an táirge lena mbaineann.
This is the first anti-subsidy investigation regarding the product concerned.

Dar leo, ní fhéadfaí an t-imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais a leathnú amach thar chríoch agus dlínse na hIndinéise.
According to them, the anti-subsidy investigation could not be extended beyond Indonesia’s territory and jurisdiction.
B’amhlaidh an cás go háirithe san imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais ar Bhoinn (‘cás Tyres’), agus in imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais GFF agus imscrúdú GFR.
This was notably the case in the anti-subsidy investigation on Tyres (‘the Tyres case’), as well as in the GFF anti-subsidy investigation and the GFR investigation.

Go deimhin, de réir GOC, sháraigh an Coimisiún cheana féin Comhaontú na hEagraíochta Domhanda Trádála maidir le Fóirdheontais agus Bearta Frithchúitimh (‘Comhaontú CSM’) agus an bun-Rialachán san imscrúdú frithchúitimh maidir le hallmhairí fabraicí áirithe fite agus/nó fréimhe gloine de thionscnamh Dhaon-Phoblacht na Síne (‘an tSín’) agus na hÉigipte, a tionscnaíodh an 16 Bealtaine 2019 agus a raibh mar thoradh air gur forchuireadh dleachtanna cinntitheacha frithchúitimh a foilsíodh an 15 Meitheamh 2020 (an ‘t-imscrúdú frithchúitimh GFF’), tríd an ngnáthchomhar déthaobhach eacnamaíoch agus trádála idir an tSín agus an Éigipt a chur san áireamh i raon feidhme na bhfóirdheontas trastíre, mar a thugtar orthu.
In fact, according to the GOC, the Commission already violated the WTO Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (‘SCM Agreement’) and the basic Regulation in the anti-subsidy investigation concerning imports of certain woven and/or stitched glass fibre fabrics originating in the People's Republic of China (‘PRC’ or ‘China’) and Egypt, initiated on 16 May 2019 and resulted in the imposition of definitive countervailing duties published on 15 June 2020 (‘the GFF anti-subsidy investigation’), by including the normal bilateral economic and trade cooperation between China and Egypt into the scope of the so-called cross-country subsidies.
An 4 Deireadh Fómhair 2023 d’fhógair an Coimisiún, trí fhógra a foilsíodh in Iris Oifigiúil an Aontais Eorpaigh (‘an fógra tionscnaimh’), go gcuirfeadh sé tús, ar a thionscnamh féin, le himscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais (‘an t-imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais’) maidir le teacht isteach san Aontas allmhairí feithiclí ceallra-leictreacha nua atá deartha chun daoine a iompar de thionscnamh Dhaon-Phoblacht na Síne (‘an tSín’).
On 4 October 2023, the Commission announced, by a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union (‘the notice of initiation’), the initiation on its own initiative of an anti-subsidy investigation (‘the anti-subsidy investigation’) with regard to imports into the Union of new battery electric vehicles designed for the transport of persons, originating in the People’s Republic of China (‘the PRC’).
An 12 Meitheamh 2020, thionscain an Coimisiún imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais maidir le hallmhairí an táirge chéanna ar de thionscnamh na Tuirce é, agus chuir sé tús le himscrúdú ar leith.
On 12 June 2020, the Commission initiated an anti-subsidy investigation with regard to imports of the same product originating in Turkey and commenced a separate investigation.
Le Rialachán Cur Chun Feidhme (AE) 2020/870 ón gCoimisiún, tar éis imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais, d’fhorchuir an Coimisiún dleacht frithchúitimh chinntitheach ar allmhairí táirgí áirithe de shnáithín gloine filiméadach leanúnach de thionscnamh na hÉigipte.
By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/870 following an anti-subsidy investigation, the Commission imposed a definitive countervailing duty on imports of certain continuous filament glass fibre products originating in Egypt.
B’ionann an sampla a roghnaíodh ar dtús agus an sampla a roghnaíodh don imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais ar leithligh maidir leis an táirge céanna de thionscnamh na hÉigipte.
The sample originally selected was the same as for the separate anti-subsidy investigation concerning the same product originating in Egypt.
Rinneadh na cleachtais fóirdheontais sin a fhrithchúitiú san imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais bunaidh le Rialachán Cur Chun Feidhme (AE) Uimh. 1379/2014.
These subsidy practices were countervailed in the original anti-subsidy investigation by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1379/2014.
An 12 Meitheamh 2020, thionscain an Coimisiún imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais maidir le hallmhairí an táirge chéanna ar de thionscnamh na Tuirce é.
On 12 June 2020, the Commission initiated an anti-subsidy investigation with regard to imports of the same product originating in Turkey.
An 21 Nollaig 2020, thionscain an Coimisiún Eorpach imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais i ndáil le hallmhairí cáblaí snáthoptaice de thionscnamh Dhaon-Phoblacht na Síne agus chuir sé tús le himscrúdú ar leithligh.
On 21 December 2020, the Commission initiated an anti-subsidy investigation with regard to imports of optical fibre cables originating in the People’s Republic of China and commenced a separate investigation.
Tháinig allmhaireoir nua chun tosaigh tar éis thús an imscrúdaithe frith-fhóirdheontais ar cháblaí snáthoptaice ón tSín agus d’iarr cead comhoibriú san imscrúdú reatha chomh maith.
A new importer came forward after the initiation of the anti-subsidy investigation into optical fibre cables from China and requested to cooperate also in the present investigation.
Meastar an tréimhse imscrúdaithe agus an tréimhse chéanna faoi bhreathnú a bheith i gceist leis an imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais seo agus leis an imscrúdú frithdhumpála ar leithligh a luaitear in aithris (4).
Both the current anti-subsidy investigation and the separate anti-dumping investigation mentioned in recital (4) have the same investigation period and the same period considered.
D’iarr Gascogne go gcuirfí san imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais sin na hargóintí a rinne sé sa nós imeachta frithdhumpála ar leithligh a bhain leis an táirge céanna de thionscnamh na Síne.
Gascogne requested that its arguments made in the separate anti-dumping procedure concenring the same product originanting from the PRC were incorporated into this anti-subsidy investigation.
D’iarr Walki freisin go ndéanfaí na hargóintí a rinne sé san imscrúdú frithdhumpála ar leithligh a chur san imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais sin.
Walki also requested that its arguments made in the separate anti-dumping investigation were incorporated into this anti-subsidy investigation.
Dá bhrí sin, níor athraigh aon cheann de na hargóintí i ndiaidh Rialachán (AE) 2021/983 a tharraing na húsáideoirí agus na hallmhaireoirí anuas freisin i gcomhthéacs an imscrúdaithe frith-fhóirdheontais conclúid an Choimisiúin.
Consequently, none of the arguments following Regulation (EU) 2021/983 raised by the users and importers also in the context of the anti-subsidy investigation changed the Commission’s conclusion.

Ina theannta sin, chuir roinnt páirtithe leasmhara in iúl gur mian leo na barúlacha a cuireadh isteach i gcomhthéacs an nós imeachta frithdhumpála ar leithligh a ionchorprú san imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais sin.
Further, several interested parties had expressed their wish to incorporate the comments submitted in the context of the separate anti-dumping procedure into this anti-subsidy investigation.
Tá tréimhse an imscrúdaithe agus an tréimhse faoi bhreathnú chéanna ag an imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais reatha agus ag an imscrúdú frithdhumpála ar leithligh a luaitear in aithris (4).
Both the current anti-subsidy investigation and the separate anti-dumping investigation mentioned in recital (4) have the same investigation period and the same period considered.

Bunaíodh PGTEX Morocco SARL ar an 2 Deireadh Fómhair 2019, thart ar 5 mhí tar éis thionscnamh an imscrúdaithe frith-fhóirdheontais.
PGTEX Morocco SARL was set up on 2 October 2019, about 5 months after the initiation of the anti-subsidy investigation.
Cuireadh tús leis an imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais bunaidh i mí na Bealtaine 2019 agus forchuireadh dleachtanna cinntitheacha frithchúitimh i mí an Mheithimh 2020 (féach aithris (1)).
The original anti-subsidy investigation was initiated in May 2019 and definitive countervailing duties were imposed in June 2020 (see recital (1)).
Ar an gcéad dul síos, fiú má bhain an t-imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais ar dtús le fóirdheonú GFF, chomhoibrigh Grúpa PGTEX go hiomlán le linn an imscrúdaithe sin.
First, even if the original anti-subsidy investigation was in the first place related to the subsidisation of GFF, the PGTEX Group fully cooperated during such investigation.
Maidir leis sin, léirigh an chéad imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais i gcás CPIC agus PGTEX China, atá gaolmhar do PGTEX Morocco SARL, go bhfuair siad araon fóirdheontais ó Rialtas na Síne.
In this respect, the original anti-subsidy investigation showed that both CPIC and PGTEX China, which are related to PGTEX Morocco SARL, received subsidies from the Chinese Government.
Maidir leis na líomhaintí ar imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais GFF, mheas an Coimisiún go raibh siad cineálach agus neamhshubstaintiúil, seachas ábhar an imscrúdaithe seo ar aon nós.
As concerns the allegations on the GFF anti-subsidy investigation, the Commission considered them to be generic and unsubstantiated, and not the subject matter of this investigation anyway.
Mheabhraigh an GOC freisin gur chuir sí a seasamh in iúl cheana féin in imscrúdú frith-fhóirdheontais GFF.
The GOC further recalled that it had already expressed its position in the GFF anti-subsidy investigation.
