PROCEDURE 1. Measures in force (1) In October 2005, the Council, by Regulation (EC) No 1631/2005 (3) (the ‘original Regulation’), imposed definitive anti-dumping measures on imports of trich- loroisocyanuric acid (TCCA’) originating in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The duty rates ranged from 7,3 % to 42,6 %. 2. Request for a review (2)  In 2009, the Commission received a request for a partial interim review pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation. The request, limited in scope to the exam- ination of dumping, was lodged by a Chinese exporting producer Heze Huayi Chemical Co., Ltd (Heze' or ‘the applicant). The rate of the definitive anti-dumping duty applicable to the applicant is 14,1 %. (3)  In its request, the applicant claimed that the circum- stances on the basis of which measures were imposed have changed and that these changes are of a lasting () OJ L 343, 22.12.2009, p. 51. OJ L 261, 7.10.2005, p. 1. nature. The applicant provided prima facie evidence that the continued imposition of the measure at its current level is no longer necessary to offset dumping. (4)  In particular, the request was based on the claim that the TCCA unit cost of the applicant have significantly decreased since the original investigation as: — the applicant produces the main raw material needed to produce the product under investigation; and, — the applicant has increased its production capacity, 3. Initiation of a review (5)  Having determined, after consulting the Advisory Committee, that sufficient evidence existed for the initiation of a review, the Commission, on 2 July 2009, initiated an investigation (}) pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation, limited in scope to the examination of dumping in respect of the applicant. 4. Product concerned and like product (6)  The product concerned by the current review is the same as that described in the original Regulation, trichloroiso- cyanuric acid and preparations thereof, also referred to as ‘symclosene’ under the international non-proprietary name (INN), originating in the People’s Republic of China (the product concerned’), currently falling within CN codes ex 2933 69 80 and ex 3808 94 20. (7). The product produced and sold on the Chinese domestic market and that exported to the Union have the same basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics and uses and are therefore considered to be alike within the meaning of Article 1(4) of the basic Regulation.
