The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) is continuing its inquiry into the question of injury and will make its finding by October 9, 2001. Provisional duty will continue to apply until this date.

If the Tribunal finds that the dumping has caused injury or is threatening to cause injury, future imports of subject goods will be subject to an anti-dumping duty equal to the margin of dumping. In that event, all duties payable are hereby demanded, pursuant to section 11 of SIMA.

CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRIBUNAL

AMENDMENT TO THE NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF INVESTIGATION

Woven Fabrics of Cotton/Polyester and Polyester/Cotton

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) hereby gives notice of an amendment to the notice of commencement of investigation that was published in the June 30, 2001 edition of the Canada Gazette, Part I, following receipt of a request (Request No. TR-2000-006) for tariff relief from Doubletex (the requester). The amendment reflects a request by the requester to narrow the scope of the end use of the fabrics under investigation.

The request is for the removal, for an indeterminate period of time, of the customs duty on importations from all countries of woven fabrics of cotton mixed solely with polyester staple fibres, unbleached or bleached, ring-spun, having a twist of 1 000 turns or more per metre in the warp or the weft, of heading Nos. 52.08, 52.09, 52.10 or 52.11, for use by textile converters only to produce dyed and finished fabrics for the apparel and footwear industries; and woven fabrics of polyester staple fibres mixed solely with cotton, unbleached or bleached, ring-spun, having a twist of 1 000 turns or more per metre in the warp or the weft, of heading Nos. 55.12, 55.13 or 55.14, for use by textile converters only to produce dyed and finished fabrics for the apparel and footwear industries (the subject fabrics).

The Tribunal is conducting an investigation under section 19 of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act into the appropriateness of reducing or removing the customs duty on importations of the subject fabrics.

The Tribunal's investigation was commenced on June 19, 2001, and is being conducted by way of written submissions. To participate in the Tribunal's investigation, an interested party must file with the Tribunal a notice of appearance in Form I of the Textile Reference Guidelines on or before September 24, 2001. Interested parties that have already filed notices of appearance with the Tribunal in this investigation continue to be considered parties to the investigation and need not file additional notices of appearance.

Parties to the investigation may provide new or additional information to the Tribunal not later than September 24, 2001. On October 9, 2001, the Tribunal will distribute all exhibits, including the staff investigation report. Parties, other than the requester, may file submissions with the Tribunal not later than October 30, 2001. The requester may then respond not later than November 9, 2001.

Submissions to the Tribunal may be written in English or in French. All correspondence should be addressed to: The Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, (613) 993-3595 (Telephone), (613) 990-2439 (Facsimile).

DISMISSAL

Miscellaneous Goods

Notice is hereby given that the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) issued an order on September 12, 2001, with respect to a complaint (File No. PR-2001-019) filed by Marathon Management Company (the complainant) under subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, R.S.C. 1985 (4th Supp.), c. 47, concerning a procurement (Solicitation No. W8486-020270) by the Department of Public Works and Government Services (PWGSC) on behalf of the Department of National Defence. The solicitation was for the supply of silhouette targets.

The complainant alleged that, in conducting this procurement, PWGSC did not provide equal access to all potential suppliers.

Having examined the evidence presented by the parties in relation to a motion by PWGSC under rule 24 of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Rules for an order dismissing the complaint, the Tribunal concluded that the procurement did not relate to a designated contract, as required by subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act. The estimated value of the procurement that was the subject of the complaint was less than the minimum value established by Article 502(1)(a) of the Agreement on Internal Trade, by Annex 1001.2c, paragraph (a), of the North American Free Trade Agreement and by Appendix I, Canada, Annex 1 to the Agreement on Government Procurement. Therefore, the Tribunal granted the motion and dismissed the complaint.

Further information may be obtained from: The Secretary, Canadian International Trade Tribunal, Standard Life Centre, 15th Floor, 333 Laurier Avenue W, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G7, (613) 993-3595 (Telephone), (613) 990-2439 (Facsimile).

CANADIAN RADIO-TELEVISION AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

PUBLIC NOTICE 2001-100

Amendments to the Broadcasting Distribution Regulations to Implement Recommendations of the CRTC's Report on French-language Broadcasting Services in a Minority Environment

Summary

In Public Notice CRTC 2001-84, the Commission called for comments on proposed amendments to implement its new policy on French-language broadcasting services in a minority environment. Further to Public Notice 2001-84, the Commission has adopted amendments to certain sections of the Broadcasting Distribution Regulations, as set out in the integral version of this notice. The amendments came into effect on September 1, 2001.

The Commission announces that it has amended sections of the Broadcasting Distribution Regulations to implement certain recommendations set out in Public Notice CRTC 2001-25 entitled "Achieving a better balance: Report on French-language broadcasting services in a minority environment" and in Public Notice 2001-26 entitled "A policy to increase the availability to cable subscribers of specialty services in the minority official language."

In Public Notice 2001-84, the Commission invited comments on the proposed regulatory amendments. The deadline for comments was August 17, 2001, and the Commission received nine submissions by that date. Three parties commented on the proposed regulatory amendments. The other submissions focused on the policy and the Commission's report (Public Notices 2001-25 and 2001-26). The Commission notes, however, that in Public Notice 2001-84, it indicated that comments should not address any of the questions that had already been considered in the policy proceedings that led to the proposed amendments.

The Canadian Association of Broadcasters (CAB) proposed amendments to paragraph 18(11.4)(b) to specify that only one French-language educational service is eligible in determining the minimum number of specialty services to be distributed in the official language of the minority. The Canadian Cable Television Association (CCTA) proposed amendments to subsections 18(11.4) and 33.3(3) to include, within a single section, all services the Commission intended to authorize in order to determine the minimum number of Canadian specialty services to be distributed in the official language of the minority.

The Commission is of the view that the CCTA's proposal more accurately reflects the Commission's decision than the wording proposed in Public Notice 2001-84. It has, however, specified, in the regulatory amendment, that the eligible programming services must be Canadian services.

The CBC indicated the French version of subsection 32(1) accurately describes the responsibilities of both "transport et réception" and recommended that the English version use the same wording, i.e., "transport and reception" instead of the proposed "carriage and reception."

The Commission agrees that the CBC's proposal is reasonable, and will serve to ensure that the Corporation's obligations with respect to the distribution of its service on Class 3 cable distribution systems will be clearly defined in the wording set out in both official languages.

The regulatory amendments proposed in Public Notice 2001-84 have been adopted with the further amendments described above. The amendments, set out in the integral version of this notice, were published in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on September 12, 2001, and came into effect on September 1, 2001.
