The Commission further concluded, on the basis of the following facts, that the Community industry had suffered material injury: - imports of audio cassettes from Japan, Korea and Hong Kong have increased at a more rapid rate than the rate of global consumption, from 154 million units in 1985 to 212 million units in 1988 (some US$ 450 million), namely by 38%; - the market share of the exporters found to have practised dumping increased by 10% while the market share of the total dumped imports increased by 3%; - the complainant producers' selling prices in the Community suffered a significant erosion between 1985 and 1988; - Community ...[+++]producers were unable to increase significantly their production between 1985 and 1988 and their sales fell by 8.5% over this period, despite an increase in total consumption of 30%; - between 1985 and 1988 return on sales of the Community industry showed a constant negative trend, which has been improved in 1988 mainly because of the withdrawal of the loss-making models; - these rationalization measures involved a loss of employment in the Community of some 23% of the audio cassettes workforce between 1985 and 1988.

[8] Since 1980, although a significant number of bills have been referred to Committees of the Whole for examination after second reading, very little time has been spent in this forum debating those bills, with the exception of the Committee of the Whole consideration of Bill C-2, An Act to implement the Free Trade Agreement between Canada and the United States of America, in December 1988 (Debates, December 20, 1988, pp. 408-19, 433-517; December 21, 1988, pp. 532-87).

There will be further proposals for product standardisation (e.g. electromedical equipment, woodworking equipment) or for harmonisation (e.g. type approval of coaches and motorcycles). - Early in 1988 the Commission will table proposals for bringing the key sectors of telecommunications, energy, transport and water supply within the Community competitive tendering rules. - The Commission looks for agreement in 1988 on its proposal for the liberalisation of captial movements within the Community. - The proposal for the liberalisation of banking services throughout the Community will be on the table of the Council. - Following the successf ...[+++]ul agreement in December on insurance other than life insurance, the Commission will put forward in 1988 proposals for directives on freedom to provide services in the fields of life assurance and third party motor vehicle insurance. - The Commission will press for a decision in 1988 on its proposal for the recognition of professional qualifications throughout the Community. - The student mobility programme ERASMUS (involving about 25,000 students and teachers and about 3,000 higher education establishments) and the business/higher education cooperative programme COMETT (over 1,000 transnational placements and 110 training partnerships) will be fully operational.

The Three are essentially recommending a gradual phasing-out of the quota system in a move towards a totally unrestricted market, in the following stages : - quotas established by the Commission for the first quarter of 1988 (output in which is virtually all sold already) which would then serve a definitive basis of reference, - seasonally adjusted quotas increased by 2.5 % every quarter from the second quarter of 1988, up to 10 % at the beginning of the first quarter of 1989, - permanent abolition of the quota system as from 1 April 1989. The report suggests an alternative : if before 15 March 1988, the producers give firm guarantees to ...[+++] the Commission that they will reduce capacities by at least 75 % of the surplus identified by the Commission, i.e. at least three quarters of some 20 million tonnes for the three categories in question (hot-rolled coils, heavy sheet and heavy sections), the Commission could suspend the progressive quartely quota incrases and return to a system of quotas adjusted to market possibilities which would apply until 31 December 1990 at the latest.
