欧委会反倾销法新提案与WTO规则的一致性分析

On the Consistency between the New Proposal for EU Anti-dumping Regulation and WTO Rules

为履行中国《入世议定书》第15条到期义务,欧盟执行机构欧委会于2016年11月出台了反倾销法律修改提案,该法案取消了非市场经济国家名单,不再根据中国《入世议定书》第15条的规定在反倾销调查中使用替代国的规定,但是,在修改案中却又提出了在出现市场'严重扭曲'的情况下可以使用外部信息,此外,修正案还作出了过渡期的特别设置,这些条款存在与WTO贸易救济规则不符的嫌疑。本文通过该修改案与WTO多边规则的比较分析,指出其不符之处,并提出我国应对建议。

To perform the duties after the expiry of Paragraph 15(a)(ii)of China’s Protocol of Accession,the Commission of EU publishes the proposal for amending the anti-dumping regulation,which eliminates the list of non-market economic countries,and ceases to use surrogate country under Paragraph 15 of China’s Protocol of Accession in anti-dumping investigations.But the proposal establishes the definition and criteria of significant distortion and the transition period to apply outside information for dumping margins calculation,which is not consistent with WTO rules.Based on the comparison between EU proposal and WTO rules,this article makes a legal analysis of this issue and provides some suggestions for China on how to deal with it.
