Customs Tariff (Anti-Dumping) Act 1975

Polyvinyl Chloride Homopolymer Resin (PVC)

Exported from the Republic of Korea

Notice pursuant to subsection 8(5) of the Customs Tariff (Anti-Dumping) Act 1975

I, JASON CLARE, Minister for Home Affairs, having decided to issue a notice pursuant to subsections 269TG(1) and 269TG(2) of the Customs Act 1901 in respect of polyvinyl chloride homopolymer resin described in that notice (the goods), DIRECT, pursuant to subsection 8(5) of the Customs Tariff (Anti-Dumping) Act 1975 (the Dumping Duty Act), that the element of interim dumping duty referred to in paragraph 8(4)(a) of that act be ascertained as a proportion of the export price of those particular goods or of the export price of goods of that kind as ascertained, whichever is the greater.

Pursuant to subsection 8(5A) of the Dumping Duty Act, I have had regard to the desirability of fixing a lesser amount of duty.  If the non-injurious price of goods of that kind as ascertained or last ascertained for the purposes of the dumping duty notice is less than the normal value of goods of that kind as so ascertained, or last so ascertained, a lesser amount of interim dumping duty is fixed such that the sum of:

(a)                 the export price of goods of that kind as so ascertained, or last so ascertained, and

(b)                 that lesser duty,

does not exceed that non-injurious price.

This notice applies to the goods and like goods entered for home consumption on and after the 28 June 2012.

Dated this 12th day of October 2012

JASON CLARE

Minister for Home Affairs
