Chinese fasteners verdict The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has declared the final results of its re-investigation of certain carbon steel fasteners from China and Chinese Taipei. It updated both the normal values and export prices of certain carbon steel fasteners originating in or exported from China and Chinese Taipei and updated the amounts of subsidy of certain carbon steel fasteners originating in or exported from China, pursuant to the Special Import Measures act. Exporters who are not the manufacturer of the subject goods received normal values only to the extent that their suppliers/manufacturers provided sufficient information to permit the determination of normal values and export prices. If the exporter or its suppliers/manufacturers provided insufficient information, normal values for that exporter will be determined by advancing the export price of the goods by 170 percent. With respect to the subsidy portion of the re-investigation, which relates only to subject goods originating inor exported fromChina, the government of China did not respond to the government subsidy request for information. However, the CBSA considered the information from the manufacturers/ exporters that provided a complete response to the request in order to determine amounts of subsidy. For all other exporters, including those that provided insufficient information, the amount of subsidy applicable will be 1.25 Chinese renminbi per kilogram.
