Whereas the second subparagraph of Article 10 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68, in the version at present in force, provides that buttermilk for use as feed shall be regarded as skimmed milk for the purposes of granting aid;

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76 of 21 June 1976 on the common organization of the market in rice (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1869/94 (2), and in particular Articles 14 (5) and 15 (4) thereof,
Whereas, under Article 14 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76, the threshold price for husked rice calculated for Rotterdam must be fixed in such a way that, on the Duisburg market, the selling price for imported husked rice corresponds to the target price; whereas this aim is attained when the components referred to in the second subparagraph of paragraph 2 of the said Article are deducted from the target price;

Whereas the amount for the protection of the industry was fixed by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1263/78 (3); whereas the components used for adjusting the threshold price for milled rice were fixed by Commission Regulation No 467/67/EEC (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2325/88 (5);

COMMISSION DECISION
of 19 January 2005
relating to a proceeding pursuant to Article 81 of the EC Treaty and Article 53(1) of the EEA Agreement
(Case COMP/C.2/37.214 - Joint selling of the media rights to the German Bundesliga)
(notified under document number C(2005) 78)
(Only the German text is authentic)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2005/396/EC)
The decision concerns the Liga-Fußballverbands e.V. (League Association) in Germany. The subject matter of the procedure is the central marketing of the media exploitation rights in respect of matches in the first and second national football divisions for men (Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga). In a preliminary assessment, the Commission noted that the exclusive selling of the commercial broadcasting rights by the League Association could restrict competition between the clubs and companies in the first and second divisions within the meaning of Article 81 of the EC Treaty.
Without having conducted a full investigation of the case, it is considered that the League Association’s commitments seem to introduce competition in the marketing of Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga rights between the league and the clubs and allow for new, in particular club branded products. The commitments reduce the scope and duration of future marketing deals and provide a transparent and non-discriminatory marketing procedure. They improve the accessibility of content for TV, radio and new media operators, make sure that more rights are being made available to the market and thereby contribute to innovation and dampen the concentration tendencies in the media markets.
The proposed decision now concludes that, in view of the commitments given by the League Association following the preliminary assessment and the observations submitted by interested third parties, there are no grounds for it to take action within the meaning of Article 9(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 (1). The commitments shall be binding on the League Association until 30 June 2009.
The Advisory Committee on Restrictive Practices and Dominant Positions issued a favourable opinion on 6 December 2004.
