EU Anti-Dumping Decision on Aluminum Foil Discusses Role of CCP in Company Management

The European Commission has decided to extend for five years the anti-dumping duties in force on imports of aluminium household foil from China. The anti-dumping duties will remain at their current level of between 6.4% and 30%. One aspect of the Commission's reasoning in its decision relates to the involvement of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the management of the companies under investigation, with implications for the calculation of "normal value" in the case.
