(d) if the inquiry is made under subsection 7(1)—indicating the basis on which the dumping or countervailable subsidisation is alleged to have occurred; and
(e) if the inquiry is made under subsection 7(1)—indicate that the inquiry will be made on the basis of the examination of importations into Australia of like goods that are entered for home consumption after a day specified for the purposes of this paragraph; and
(f) summarise the factors alleged to constitute the basis for the inquiry; and
(g) invite interested parties to lodge with the Authority, within a specified period of not less than 40 days after the date of the public notice of the inquiry, submissions concerning the subject matter of the inquiry; and
