SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On May 22, 1995, the Department issued the final results of the
administrative review for the 1992-1993 period of review, and revoked
the entire countervailing duty order effective March 31, 1993 (60 FR
27082). The Department found that the GONZ had met the requirements for
revocation of the countervailing duty order pursuant to 19 CFR
Sec. 355.25(a)(1) and 19 CFR 355.25(b)(1). Based upon certification by
GONZ, as well as from the Department's previous two consecutive
administrative reviews, the Department determined that the GONZ has
abolished all subsidy programs for lamb meat for a period of three
consecutive years. In addition, the GONZ has certified that it will not
reinstate the abolished programs or substitute other countervailable
programs. The Department further determined that there was no
likelihood that the GONZ would substitute or replace formerly
countervailable programs with new subsidies.
Prior to the Department's final determination to revoke the order,
there was an opportunity for interested parties to request an
administrative review of this order for the period April 1, 1993,
through March 31, 1994. The GONZ submitted a request for an
administrative review of this period on September 30, 1994 and the
Department initiated the review on October 13, 1994 (59 FR 51939).
Since the Department revoked the order effective March 31, 1993,
there is no basis for completing the administrative review covering the
1993-1994 period. Therefore, the Department is hereby terminating this
review.
Dated: June 22, 1995.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Compliance.
