Implementing Regulation (EU) No 430/2013 continues to refer to that classification under CN code 7307 19 10 as fittings of malleable cast iron. The reference to the CN code is now inconsistent with the Court of Justice's case-law and with the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature to CN code 7307 19 10.\n(5)\nTherefore, CN code ex 7307 19 90 and the corresponding TARIC code should also be included among the codes listed in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 430/2013 with regard to goods the imports of which are subject to the definitive anti-dumping duty.\n(6)\nTo ensure the effective collection of the anti-dumping duties in place, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 430/2013 should be amended accordingly.\n(7)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
