On 21 December 2000 Brazil requested consultations with the EC as regards definitive anti-dumping duties imposed by Council Regulation (EC) No. 1784/2000 concerning imports of malleable cast iron tube or pipe fittings originating inter alia in Brazil. Brazil considered that the EC’s establishment of the facts was not proper and that its evaluation of these facts was not unbiased and objective both at the provisional and definitive stage particularly in relation to the initiation and conduct of the investigation (including the evaluation findings and determination of dumping injury and causal link between them). Brazil also challenged the evaluation and findings made in relation to the “community interest”. In sum Brazil considered that the EC had infringed Article VI of GATT 1994 and Articles 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9 11 12 and 15 of the Anti-dumping Agreement.
