  • Marginal note:Effect of termination of undertaking

    (1.3) A termination of an undertaking under subsection (1.2) terminates all proceedings under this Act respecting the dumping or subsidizing of the goods to which the undertaking relates, unless, in any case where the Commissioner has accepted two or more undertakings, the Commissioner, for good reason, otherwise directs.

    (2) Where, in any investigation respecting the dumping or subsidizing of goods, a number of undertakings are accepted by the Commissioner under section 49 and any one or more of those undertakings have been or are being violated, the Commissioner shall not, unless he sees good reason to the contrary, take any action under subsection (1) if the undertakings that have not been and are not being violated account for substantially all the imports into Canada of the goods.
