The Commission has gathered all the information it required and has carried out on-the-spot inspec- tions on the premises of the complainant Commu- nity producers and of a number of importers. B. WITHDRAWAL OF COMPLAINT, TERMINA- TION OF REVIEW, LAPSE OF MEASURES At this stage in the procedure the review has produced no evidence to show that any new injury would be sustained if the measures in force lapsed. The Commission has also been informed by the complainant Community producers that one of them, which accounts for 95 % of their total production, was intending to transfer its production activities outside the Community and that they were withdrawing their complaint and their request for a review of the anti-dumping measures concer- ning outboard motors originating in Japan. The Commission therefore considers that the anti- dumping procedure concerning imports of - outboard motors originating in Japan should be terminated and gives notices, pursuant to Article 15 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 that these measures shall lapse and expire,
