High fatigue performance iron or steel concrete reinforcing bars and rods are excluded’.\n(3)\nThe rate of the provisional anti-dumping duty applicable to the net, free-at-Union-frontier price, before duty was set up at the level of 12,5 %.\n(4)\nSubsequently, the Commission imposed on 17 June 2017 a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain concrete reinforcement bars and rods originating in the in Belarus by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1019 (‘the definitive Regulation’).\n(5)\nThe product under definitive anti-dumping duties was defined as ‘certain concrete reinforcement bars and rods, made of iron or non-alloy steel, not further worked than forged, hot-rolled, hot-drawn or hot-extruded, whether or not twisted after rolling, containing indentations, ribs, grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process, originating in Belarus and currently falling within CN codes ex 7214 10 00, ex 7214 20 00, ex 7214 30 00, ex 7214 91 10, ex 7214 91 90, ex 7214 99 10 and ex 7214 99 95. High fatigue performance iron or steel concrete reinforcing bars and rods and other long products, such as round bars are excluded’.\n(6)\nThe rate of the definitive anti-dumping duty applicable to the net, free-at-Union-frontier price, before duty was set up at the level of 10,6 %.\n(7)\nArticle 2 of the definitive Regulation provided for definitive collection of the amounts secured by the way of the provisional anti-dumping duty pursuant to the provisional Regulation. However, the Regulation did not explicitly provide for the release of the amounts secured in excess of the definitive rate and product scope of anti-dumping duty measures, which would have been appropriate in light of Article 10(3) of the basic Regulation.\n(8)\nArticle 2 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1019 should therefore be corrected accordingly.\n(9)\nThe corrected provision should apply from the date Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1019 entered into force.\n(10)\nThe amendment provided for in this regulation is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) Regulation (EU) 2016/1036,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
