1. The Contracting Parties shall consult each other if any product is being imported in trade between the Community and Romania in such increased quantities or under such conditions as to cause or threaten serious injury to domestic producers of like or directly competing products.

2. The Contracting Party requesting the consultations will supply the other Party with all the information required for a detailed examination of the situation.

3. The consultations requested pursuant to paragraph 1 will be held with due regard for the fundamental aims of the Agreement and the general principles of international law and will be completed not later than 30 days from the date of notification of the request by the Party concerned, unless the Parties agree otherwise.

4. If as a result of these consultations it is acknowledged that the situation described in paragraph 1 exists, the Parties will take appropriate measures, on a regional basis if necessary, to prevent or put an end to the injury, including measures relating to the selling prices of the products exported where the injury is caused by prices which are abnormally far below the normal level of competition.

5. If the consultations end without the Contracting Parties reaching agreement on the measures to be taken, the Contracting Party which requested the consultations will be free to apply to imports of the products in question such measures as it considers necessary to prevent or put an end to the injury caused by the exports from the other Contracting Party. In that event, the other Party will be entitled to waive its obligations towards the first Party in respect of substantially equivalent trade.

6. In exceptional cases, where any delay would cause damage which it would be difficult to repair, provisional measures to prevent or remedy the injury may be taken during the consultations or without prior consultation. In that event, if the consultations have not already begun, they will take place immediately after the measures in question have been taken.

7. The Contracting Parties agree to hold consultations to determine when the measures adopted pursuant to paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 shall cease to apply.
