Section 15: Individual dumping margin

15. Individual dumping margin (1) The Investigating Authority shall determine an individual dumping margin for each known exporter or producer of an investigated product. (2) Notwithstanding subsection (1), where the number of exporters, producers, importers or type of products involved is so large as to make it impracticable to determine an individual dumping margin for each known exporter or producer of an investigated product, the Investigating Authority may limit its examination to— (a) a reasonable number of interested parties or investigated products by using samples which are statistically valid on the basis of information available at the time of the selection; or (b) to the largest percentage of the volume of the exports from the country under reference which can reasonably be investigated. (3) Any selection of exporter, producer, importer or type of products made under this section shall be made after consultation with the exporter, producer or importer. (4) Notwithstanding subsections (2) and (3), the Investigating Authority shall determine an individual dumping margin for any exporter or producer who voluntarily submits the necessary information in time for that information to be considered during the course of the investigation. (5) For the purposes of subsection (4), where the number of exporters or producers is so large that individual examinations would be unduly burdensome to the Investigating Authority and prevent the timely completion of the investigation, the Investigating Authority may decline to determine an individual dumping margin on the basis of such voluntary responses and limit their examination to the exporters and producers in the sample.
