I henhold til artikel 1, stk. 4, i forordning (EF) nr. 397/2004 kan pakistanske eksporterende producenter, som opfylder de tre kriterier i samme artikel, blive indrømmet samme behandling som de samarbejdende virksomheder, der ikke indgår i stikprøven (behandling som ny eksporterende producent).
Article 1(4) of Regulation (EC) No 397/2004 gives the possibility to Pakistani exporting producers which meet the three criteria set out in the same Article to be granted the same treatment as the co-operating companies not included in the sample (new exporting producer treatment or NEPT).
