96In addition, it is borne out by the purpose and general scheme of the basic regulation. In that light, and in particular having regard to recital 19 and Article 13 of that regulation, the sole purpose of a regulation extending an anti-dumping duty is to ensure that the duty is effective and to prevent its circumvention. Consequently, a measure extending a definitive anti-dumping duty is merely ancillary to the initial act establishing that duty, which protects the effective application of the definitive measures (judgments of 6 June 2013, Paltrade, C‑667/11, EU:C:2013:368, paragraph 28, and of 17 December 2015, APEX, C‑371/14, EU:C:2015:828, paragraphs 50 and 53).
