14. Requirement of a written application

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

(1)

Except as provided for in section 19, an investigation under this Part of this Act shall be initiated upon a written application in the prescribed form being made by or on behalf of a Sri Lankan industry, accompanied by such fee as may be prescribed.

(2)

Applications shall be submitted to the Director-General in such a number of copies, as the Director-General may determine.

(3)

For the purposes of this section, an application shall be considered to have been made “by or on behalf of a Sri

Lankan industry”, if such application is supported by those

Sri Lankan producers whose collective output constitutes more than fifty per centum of the total production of the domestic like product produced by that portion of the Sri

Lankan industry, expressing either support for or opposition to the application:

Provided that, those producers who express their support to the application shall be accounted for not less than twenty-five per centum of the total production of the domestic like product, produced by the Sri Lankan industry.

(4)

Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (3), in the case of fragmented industries involving an exceptionally large number of producers, the Director-General may determine support and opposition, by using statistically valid sampling techniques.
