Rescission of Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if the parties that 
requested a review withdraw the request within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the notice of initiation. Commerce received a request 
from Healthcare Europe DOO Ruma for an administrative review of itself. 
On September 30, 2024, Healthcare Europe DOO Ruma withdrew its request 
for a review of itself.\12\ Because the request for review was timely 
withdrawn for Healthcare Europe DOO Ruma, and because no other party 
requested a review of Healthcare Europe DOO Ruma, in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce is rescinding this review for Healthcare 
Europe DOO Ruma.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Healthcare's Letter, ``Withdrawal of Request for 
Administrative Review,'' dated September 30, 2024.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), it is Commerce's practice to 
rescind an administrative review of an AD order when there are no 
entries of subject merchandise during the POR for which liquidation is 
suspended.\13\ Normally, upon completion of an administrative review, 
the suspended entries are liquidated at the AD assessment rate 
calculated for the review period.\14\ Therefore, for an administrative 
review to be conducted, there must be a suspended entry that Commerce 
can instruct CBP to liquidate at the AD assessment rate calculated for 
the review period.\15\ As noted above, there were no suspended entries 
of subject merchandise for Healthcare Europe, Inc. subject to this 
review during the POR. Accordingly, in the absence of suspended entries 
of subject merchandise during the POR, we are hereby rescinding this 
administrative review, in its entirety, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(3).

Commerce intends to issue appropriate assessment instructions to CBP no
