11.9.1999 Official Journal of the European Communities L 241/19 (Acts whose publication is not obligatory) COMMISSION DECISION of 10 September 1999 terminating the anti-dumping review concerning imports of personal fax machines originating in Japan and Singapore (notified under document number C(1999) 2888) (1999/607EC) THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Review Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, (3) The Commission, after consultation, by a notice Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/96 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (') (here- after referred to as ‘the basic Regulation’), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 905/98 (3, and in particular Article 9 thereof, After consulting the Advisory Committee, Whereas: A. PROCEDURE Measures in force (1) By Regulation (EC) No 904/98 (}) the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of personal fax machines, falling within CN code ex 8517 21 00 and originating, inter alia, in Japan and Singapore. (2)  The products concerned, as defined in Regulation (EC) No 904/98, are fax machines with a weight of five kilograms or less, with dimensions (width x depth x height) of the main body measuring 470 mm x 450 mm x 170 mm or less, with the exception of fax machines using ink-jet or laser or LED printing tech- nology.

() O] L 128, 30.4.1998, p. 1. published in the Official Journal of the European Commu- nities (*), decided on its own initiative, pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation, to initiate an interim review of the anti-dumping measures in force on imports of personal fax machines originating in Japan and Singapore. (4 The decision to initiate the review followed a declaration made by the Commission and annexed to the Minutes of the Council session of 27 April 1998, whereby the Commission agreed to re-examine the existing anti- dumping measures concerning Japan and Singapore if the producers/exporters concerned ‘would submit suffi- cient evidence showing that the volume of the imports concerned into the Community is not such as to con- tribute substantially to the injury suffered by the Community industry’. The reason for the declaration was that the investigation showed (respectively) zero or low levels of price undercutting for Japan and Singapore, and that the market shares of the two countries had to be assessed on the basis of estimates, due to the absence of sufficient cooperation. (5)  On the basis of the preliminary information received from certain producers in the countries concerned, the Commission considered that there were sufficient grounds to warrant the initiation of an exceptional early interim review of the existing measures concerning Japan and Singapore. The review has been limited to the issues of the import volumes and market shares of these two countries on the Community market. () O] C 64, 6.3.1999, p. 12.
