orsamples of the goods of each of the countries whose goods are under consideration that, in the opinion of the President based on the information available at the time of selection, are statistically valid.Where information submittedWhere subsection (1) applies, the President shall determine a margin of dumping in relation to any goods under consideration that were not included in the percentage or sample, as the case may be, referred to in that subsection wherethe exporter of the goods submits information for the purpose of determining a margin of dumping;
