INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-442-443 and 731-TA-1095-1097 (Final)]


In the Matter of Certain Lined Paper School Supplies from China, 
India, and Indonesia; Notice of Commission Determination Not To Conduct 
a Portion of the Hearing In Camera

AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Commission determination not to close any part of the hearing 
to the public.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission has determined to deny the requests of 
respondents Staples, Inc. (``Staples'') and NuCarta, LLC (``NuCarta'') 
to conduct a portion of its hearing in the above-captioned 
investigations scheduled for July 25, 2006, in camera. See Commission 
rules 201.13 and 201.36(b)(4) (19 CFR 201.13 and 201.36(b)(4)).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Monica A. Stump, Esq., Office of the 
General Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, telephone 202-
205-3106. Hearing-impaired individuals are advised that information on 
this matter may be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD terminal 
on 202-205-1810.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission believes it should conduct 
its business in public in all but the most unusual circumstances. The 
Commission has determined that, in light of the nature of these 
investigations, it will be able to assess adequately all arguments 
raised by Staples and NuCarta without resorting to the extraordinary 
measure of an in camera hearing. Accordingly, the Commission has 
determined that the public interest would be best served by a hearing 
that is entirely open to the public. See 19 CFR 201.36(c)(1).

    Authority: This notice is provided pursuant to Commission Rule 
201.35(b)(19 CFR 201.35(b)).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: July 21, 2006.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
