Introduction
1. Based on their own experience, the co-sponsors have identified some deficiencies in the rule on cumulation contained in the Antidumping Agreement (ADA).
2. This rule, set forth in Article 3.3 of the ADA, plays an important role for any injury determination. Added in the Uruguay Round text as a last-minute change by a simple “copy and paste” from Article 15.3 of the Subsidies and Countervailing Measures Agreement
