Article 1

1. The continued existence of the Antidumping Act of 1916 of the United States of America (5) appears to be inconsistent with the obligations of that country under the Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the World Trade Organisation and constitutes an 'obstacle to trade` within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 3286/94. 2. The Community will commence action against the United States of America under the Understanding on the Rules and Procedures for the Settlement of Disputes and other relevant WTO provisions with a view to securing removal of the obstacle to trade.
