Notice is hereby given, pursuant to subrule 78(a) of the NAFTA Article 1904 Panel Rules, that the binational panel review of the Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value made by the United States Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration, respecting greenhouse tomatoes from Canada is completed. Pursuant to subrule 78(a) of the NAFTA Article 1904 Panel Rules, this Notice of Completion of Panel Review is effective on May 29, 2002, the day the Consent Motion to terminate the binational panel review of this matter was filed (Secretariat File No. USA-CDA-2002-1904-04).

Explanatory Note

Chapter 19 of the North American Free Trade Agreement establishes a procedure for replacing domestic judicial review of determinations in anti-dumping and countervailing duty panel reviews involving imports from a NAFTA country with review by binational panels.

These panels are established, when a Request for Panel Review is received by the NAFTA Secretariat, to act in place of national courts to expeditiously review final determinations to determine whether they are in accordance with the anti-dumping or countervailing duty law of the country that made the determination.

Under Article 1904 of the North American Free Trade Agreement that came into force on January 1, 1994, the Government of Canada, the Government of the United States and the Government of Mexico established the NAFTA Article 1904 Panel Rules. These Rules were published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, on January 1, 1994.

Requests for information concerning the present notice, or concerning the NAFTA Article 1904 Panel Rules, should be addressed to the Canadian Secretary, NAFTA Secretariat, Canadian Section, 90 Sparks Street, Suite 705, Ottawa, Ontario K1P 5B4, (613) 992-9388.
