Dumping and Countervailing Duties Act 1988

Termination of Dumping Investigation: Certain Men’s Footwear from Hong Kong

Notice is hereby given that I, Alexander Hugh McPhail, Manager (Trade Remedies), Ministry of Commerce, acting pursuant to section 11 (1) of the Dumping and Countervailing Duties Act 1988 and under delegated authority from the Secretary of Commerce, have terminated the dumping investigation in respect of a dumping complaint lodged by the New Zealand industry producing certain men’s footwear against imports from Hong Kong of certain men’s footwear listed in the Schedule to this notice and as described in the Notice of Initiation of Dumping Investigation of 17 March 1992 (New Zealand Gazette, 19 March 1992, page 821).

As a result of investigations carried out, I am satisfied that the said goods are not goods in respect of which a determination may be made under the Dumping and Countervailing Duties Act 1988, for the reason that imports of the goods from Hong Kong are negligible. There is therefore no evidence that material injury has been or is being caused or threatened as a result of the importation of the goods.
