WTO Dispute Settlement Proceeding Regarding the United States International Trade Commission Final Determination of Threat of Material Injury in the Investigation Concerning Certain Softwood Lumber From Canada

Краткое содержание

The Office of the United States International Trade Representative ("USTR") is providing notice of the request by the Government of Canada for the establishment of a dispute settlement panel under the Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the World Trade Organization ("WTO Agreement") to examine the International Trade Commission ("ITC") final determination of threat of material injury with respect to certain softwood lumber from Canada. The request for the establishment of a panel alleges that the ITC's determination is inconsistent with various provisions of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 ("GATT 1994"), the Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of GATT 1994 ("Anti-dumping Agreement"), and the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("SCM Agreement"). USTR invites written comments from the public concerning the issues raised in this dispute.
