() O] No L 72, 18. 3. 1988, p. 12. ® (6) @) The Commission accordingly believes that the facts as definitively established show that the dumped imports of oxalic acid originating in ‘Taiwan and South Korea must be considered to have caused material injury. E. Community interest - No new information concerning the Community interest has been submitted since the provisional duty was imposed and the Commission’s conclusions concerning the Community interest set out in Regulation (EEC) No 699/88 therefore remain unchanged. S -In those circumstances, definitive anti-dumping measures must be imposed on imports of oxalic acid originating in Taiwan or South Korea in order ' to protect. the Community interest. F. Undertaking When Uranus Chemicals Co. Ltd, Hsin Chu, Taiwan, was informed that the main conclusions of the preliminary investigation concerning the product originating in Taiwan had been confirmed, it gave an undertaking concerning its exports to the Community. The main effect of the undertaking is to bring the prices of exports to the Community up to a level which the Commission considers sufficient to eliminate the injury caused by the imports _concerned, given the prices of those imports and the margin by which they undercut the internal Community threshold price needed to guarantee an efficient Community producer sufficient income to enable him to continue his activities. In those circumstances, the undertaking given is considered acceptable and the proceeding can accordingly be terminated’ without a definitive anti-dumping duty being imposed on imports from the exporter concerned. The Advisory Committee did not oppose that solution,
