Article 2(5) of the Anti-Dumping Regulation, provided that there are grounds for believing orsuspecting that the effect of the relationship is such as to cause the producer concerned to behave
differently from non-related producers, in accordance with footnote 11 ADA?
3. Should Article 14(3)(c) of the Anti-Dumping Regulation be understood as requiring the

imports in accordance with Article 3.5 ADA?

Article 22(4) of the Anti-Dumping Regulation?

Anti-Dumping Regulation?
