In the matter of representations as to whether there are reasonable grounds to consider that the imposition, in whole or in part, of an anti-dumping duty on imports of copper pipe fittings originating in or exported from the United States of America, the Republic of Korea and the People's Republic of China and of a countervailing duty on imports of copper pipe fittings originating in or exported from the People's Republic of China, as a result of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal's findings dated February 19, 2007, in Inquiry No. NQ-2006-002 conducted under section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act, would not or might not be in the public interest under section 45 of the Special Import Measures Act
Pursuant to section 45 of the Special Import Measures Act, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal is of the opinion that there are no reasonable grounds to consider that the imposition of an anti-dumping or countervailing duty, or the imposition of such a duty in the full amount provided for by the Special Import Measures Act, in respect of the goods referred to in the Canadian International Trade Tribunal's findings in Inquiry No. NQ-2006-002, would not or might not be in the public interest. Accordingly, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal will not initiate a public interest inquiry (Public Interest Inquiry No. PB-2006-001) into this matter.
