English: is funded partly through licence fees but also through advertising revenue. (11) TV2 was established in 1986 as an independent autonomous institution funded by government loans and started national broadcasting on 1 October 1988. It broadcasts the terrestrial channel, TV2, and also started broadcasting the satellite channel, TV2 Zulu, in 2000.
Italian: è stata costituita nel 1986 come ente indipendente e autonomo, finanziata con un prestito statale, ed ha cominciato a trasmettere in tutto il territorio nazionale il 1o ottobre 1988: trasmette sul canale via terra TV2 e, dal 2000, ha cominciato a trasmettere via satellite sul canale TV2 Zulu.
English: In addition eight stations were approved by the Government as regional TV2 stations. TV2 is required to carry broadcasts from the regional TV2 stations on its nationwide terrestrial channel.
Italian: Inoltre, il governo ha riconosciuto come emittenti TV2 otto emittenti regionali: TV2 trasmette programmi dalle emittenti regionali TV2 mediante il suo canale via terra a copertura nazionale.
English: Apart from the public broadcasters, two commercial television broadcasters, TvDanmark and TV3/3+, operate on the nationwide television broadcasting market in Denmark. The commercial broadcasters compete with TV2 on the nationwide television advertising market. TvDanmark forms part of SBS Broadcasting SA and broadcasts two channels in Denmark.
Italian: Oltre alle emittenti televisive pubbliche, sul mercato televisivo danese a copertura nazionale operano due emittenti commerciali: TvDanmark e TV3/3+, che sono in concorrenza con TV2 sul mercato nazionale della pubblicità televisiva.
English: Chapter 6 applies to local radio and television activities. These requirements mainly concern obtaining an authorisation.
Italian: Le disposizioni del capo 6, riguardante le radio e televisioni locali, disciplinano essenzialmente l'ottenimento della licenza.
English: Under the initial loan agreements, it had to pay interest on the capital and to repay the principal. However, during the entire period under investigation it has been exempt from interest payments and enjoys a moratorium on servicing charges.
Italian: Secondo le condizioni originarie del prestito, TV2 doveva pagare interessi sul capitale e rimborsarlo integralmente, ma in tutto il periodo in oggetto TV2 è stata esentata dal pagamento degli interessi e ha ricevuto una moratoria per i rimborsi dei prestiti.
English: TV2's regional services were not liable for payment of the fees as these services were broadcast in ‘windows’ on TV2's national frequency. The commercial broadcaster, TvDanmark, was the only operator paying this fee, which it did for its second channel.
Italian: Le attività regionali di TV2 non sono state assoggettate al canone, poiché sono trasmesse in «finestre» della frequenza a copertura nazionale di TV2.
English: Regarding TV2's behaviour in the advertising market, the Danish authorities maintain that it has consistently set its prices so as to maximise revenues. Prices are established purely on supply and demand.
Italian: Per quanto riguarda il comportamento di TV2 sul mercato pubblicitario, le autorità danesi hanno osservato che TV2 ha sempre fissato i suoi prezzi in modo da ottenere il massimo rendimento possibile.
English: The Danish authorities submitted a report prepared by RBB Economics on competition on the Danish market in television advertising. The report concludes that the average net prices charged by TV2 are in fact higher than the prices charged by its competitors and that the differences in advertising rates charged by TV2 and TvDanmark are explained by differences in their relative strengths in terms of programming and ability to generate viewers.
Italian: Le autorità danesi hanno presentato una relazione della RBB Economics, riguardante la concorrenza sul mercato danese della pubblicità televisiva, nella quale si conclude che, in media, i prezzi netti praticati da TV2 sono effettivamente superiori a quelli delle sue concorrenti e che le differenze tra i prezzi praticati da TV2 e TvDanmark per gli annunci pubblicitari sono dovute alle differenze tra la loro forza rispettiva in termini di piattaforma di programmi e di capacità di attirare audience.
English: First, in the present case there is no contractual relationship between TV2 and the persons paying the licence fee. It is DR, which itself is a public institution under State control, which collects the licence fees from owners of radio and television sets and passes them on to TV2.
Italian: Nel caso in oggetto, anzitutto non vi è nessuna relazione contrattuale tra TV2 e chi paga il canone: è DR, un'istituzione pubblica sotto controllo statale, a riscuotere i canoni dai proprietari di apparecchi radiofonici e televisivi e a versarli poi a TV2.
English: Second, TV2's share of the income from licence fees is determined by the Minister of Culture. Thus, it is a public authority that ultimately decides on the amount of the licence fees to be allocated to TV2.
Italian: In secondo luogo, è il ministro della Cultura a stabilire la quota del gettito dei canoni da versare a TV2: è dunque una pubblica autorità quella che decide, in ultima istanza, quale importo del gettito dei canoni sia da trasferire a TV2.
English: The Commission is therefore of the opinion that the frequency fee does not reflect market conditions. By not asking for a market rate for the asset the State has forgone revenue that would have accrued to the State budget.
Italian: La Commissione ritiene quindi che il canone per l'utilizzo della frequenza non rispecchi le condizioni del mercato: non chiedendo un canone calcolato in base alle condizioni del mercato, lo Stato ha rinunciato a un'entrata del bilancio statale.
English: First, the parameters on the basis of which the compensation is calculated are not established in advance in an objective and transparent manner. The compensation is determined in a media agreement set for four years, whereas there is no publicly available annual budget establishing a link between compensation and output.
Italian: Anzitutto, i parametri per il calcolo della compensazione non sono stati fissati in modo obiettivo e trasparente: la compensazione viene determinata in un accordo relativo ai media valido per quattro anni, senza che vi sia un bilancio accessibile al pubblico che stabilisca un nesso tra la compensazione e la prestazione.
English: Moreover, TV2's competitors, TV3 and 3+ as well as TvDanmark's first channel, are all broadcast under a UK authorisation. Thus, the Danish rules do not apply to these channels.
Italian: Inoltre, le concorrenti di TV2 — ossia TV3, 3+ e TvDanmark1 — trasmettono tutte con licenza britannica: di conseguenza, a questi canali non si applica la normativa danese.
Polish: Co więcej, wszyscy konkurenci TV2: TV3 i 3+, a także i TvDanmark 1, nadają na podstawie koncesji brytyjskiej, przez co duńskie prawo ich nie obejmuje.
English: In the present case, the Commission notes that TV2 has operated an Internet site as part of its public service task. That site informs users about TV2's public service television programmes.
Italian: Nel caso in oggetto, la Commissione osserva che, come parte dei suoi compiti di servizio pubblico, TV2 ha attivato un sito Internet, nel quale informa gli utenti sui suoi programmi televisivi di servizio pubblico.
English: The Danish Government advances a number of arguments to justify the surplus funding that has been provided. First, it considers that the surplus reflects a reasonable return on TV2's activities.
Italian: Per giustificare l'eccesso di finanziamento, il governo danese presenta varie argomentazioni, sostenendo anzitutto che era necessario costituire un capitale per porre TV2 in grado di affrontare le oscillazioni degli introiti pubblicitari, assicurando così l'adempimento della funzione di servizio pubblico conferita a TV2.
English: The Danish authorities further argue that TV2 would not have been able to sustain sudden falls in advertising income like that that took place in 1999. In that year TV2 saw its advertising revenue decrease by DKK 104 million, or 9,3 %, from the previous year.
Italian: A titolo d'esempio, le autorità danesi fanno notare che TV2 non sarebbe stata in grado di far fronte a improvvisi e ingenti cali degli introiti pubblicitari, come quello verificatosi nel 1999, quando le entrate di TV2 per questa voce si ridussero di 104 milioni di DKK, ossia del 9,3 % rispetto all'anno precedente.
English: DKK 300 million was earmarked for the digitalisation of both TV2 and the regional stations. In 1997 DKK 167 million was transferred to TV2 for this purpose.
Italian: Per la digitalizzazione di TV2 e delle stazioni regionali era stato stanziato l'importo di 300 milioni di DKK e, nel 1997, furono trasferiti a TV2, a tale scopo, 167 milioni di DKK.
Swedish: Ett belopp på 300 miljoner DKK öronmärktes till datorisering av såväl TV2 som de regionala stationerna, och 1997 överfördes 167 miljoner DKK till TV2 till detta ändamål.
English: Instead the Commission has analysed the financial performances of TvDanmark and SBS Broadcasting. On this analysis the Commission cannot establish with certainty whether the losses incurred stem from high initial start‐up costs that TvDanmark has not yet been able to recover or whether the operator is simply not performing efficiently.
Italian: La Commissione ha analizzato invece i dati relativi ai risultati di TvDanmark e di SBS Broadcasting, senza tuttavia poter determinare con sicurezza se le perdite subite siano dovute al fatto che, all'inizio, TvDanmark ha dovuto sostenere costi elevati di avviamento, che non ha ancora potuto recuperare, oppure se, in effetti, TvDanmark non sia efficiente nelle sue operazioni.
English: Second, it analysed Danish advertising expenditure compared with the EU and the other Scandinavian countries in particular. Third, it examined the contact prices in all Scandinavian countries and for all media types.
Italian: Si sono poi analizzate le spese per la pubblicità in Danimarca rispetto all'UE e, in particolare, rispetto agli altri paesi scandinavi, e infine si sono comparati i prezzi intrasettoriali in tutti i paesi scandinavi e per i tutti i media.
English: The difference in price thus seems to reflect market conditions. However, this result has to be treated with caution since the weighting factor cannot possibly adjust all the differences between the stations.
Italian: Sembra quindi che la differenza tra i prezzi rifletta le condizioni di mercato, ma tale conclusione va presa con cautela, perché non si deve dimenticare che è impossibile che in un simile fattore di ponderazione si tenga conto di tutte le differenze tra le emittenti.
English: In 2000 TV2 expected competition to intensify significantly and did not raise its prices. Indeed actual prices decreased due to the new rebate scheme introduced by TV2.
Italian: Nel 2000, prevedendo un considerevole intensificarsi della concorrenza, TV2 non rialzò i prezzi.
English: In 2001 TV2 again increased its prices. Despite the rising prices TV2's advertising income and capacity utilisation decreased to the level of 1999.
Italian: Nel 2001, TV2 aumentò ancora i suoi prezzi, ma nonostante ciò i suoi introiti pubblicitari e l'utilizzo della sua capacità diminuirono, tornando ai livelli del 1999.
English: In 2002 TV2 reduced prices again and there was a slight decrease in total turnover in that year. However, turnover on the overall advertising market decreased even more.
Italian: Nel 2002, TV2 abbassò di nuovo i suoi prezzi e registrò un minor calo del suo fatturato totale, ma sul mercato della pubblicità nel suo complesso il fatturato registrò una riduzione ancora maggiore.
English: The Commission therefore concludes that TV2's price cuts have actually brought it higher overall income. As a consequence, TV2's pricing behaviour would not indicate that it refrained from seeking to maximise its income.
Italian: La Commissione conclude quindi che la riduzione dei prezzi applicata da TV2 è risultata, di fatto, nella maggiorazione degli introiti complessivi: non si può quindi ritenere che il comportamento di TV2 non fosse teso a massimizzare i propri introiti.
English: A major reason for the divide is the significantly smaller amount of time people in Nordic countries spent watching television. In Denmark average daily viewing was 156 minutes per capita in 2002 whereas it was 192 minutes in the EU.
Italian: Uno dei motivi fondamentali è che nei paesi nordici si passa meno tempo davanti al televisore: nel 2002 la media giornaliera in Danimarca era di 156 minuti pro capite, rispetto a 192 minuti nell'UE.
English: Two meetings with the Danish authorities were held on 25 October 2002 and 19 November 2002. Additional information was sent by letters of 19 November 2002 and 3 December 2002.
Lithuanian: Buvo surengti du susitikimai su Danijos pareigūnais – 2002 m. spalio 25 d. ir 2002 m. lapkričio 19 d. Papildoma informacija buvo atsiųsta 2002 m. lapkričio 19 d. ir 2002 m. gruodžio 3 d. laiškais.
English: In the planning of programmes, freedom of information and of expression shall be a primary concern (…). In addition, particular emphasis shall be placed on Danish language and culture’.
Latvian: Raidījumu programmas veidošanā noteicošās ir informācijas un vārda brīvība (…), turklāt īpaša uzmanība jāpievērš dāņu valodai un kultūrai”.
Lithuanian: Planuojant programas turi būti kreipiamas ypatingas dėmesys į informacijos ir žodžio laisvę... Taip pat turi būti skiriama daug dėmesio danų kalbai ir kultūrai.“
English: At the end of 2000 when digitalisation should have been completed TV2 had only invested DKK 14,3 million of the DKK 167 million. At the end of the period under investigation only a total of DKK 95 million was actually invested in digitalisation equipment.
Latvian: Līdz 2000. gada beigām, kad ciparu iekārtu iegādei bija jābūt veiktai, no saņemtajiem DKK 167 milj. “TV2” ciparu iekārtās bija ieguldījusi tikai DKK 14,3 milj. Līdz izmeklēšanā apskatītā laika posma beigām ciparu iekārtās bija ieguldīti tikai DKK 95 milj. Taču 2003. gada 1. janvārī atlikušie DKK 72 milj. tika nodoti “TV2” ziņā, bez to izmantošanas nosacījumiem.
Lithuanian: 2000 metų pabaigoje, kai skaitmeninės technologijos jau turėjo būti įdiegtos, TV2 buvo investavusi tik 14,3 mln. Danijos kronų iš minėtų 167 mln. Tyrimo laikotarpio pabaigoje realiai į skaitmenines technologijas buvo investuota tik 95 mln. Danijos kronų.
English: DR is almost entirely funded through licence fees. TV2 is funded partly through licence fees but also through advertising revenue.
Latvian: “DR” ir finansēts gandrīz vienīgi ar licenču līdzekļiem un ieņēmumiem no reklāmas.
English: In 1997 DKK 167 million was transferred to TV2 for this purpose. The Commission therefore agrees that the transfer was made on a clear decision and for a specific purpose.
Latvian: 1997. gadā “TV2” šim nolūkam tika pārskaitīti DKK 167 milj. Tāpēc Komisija piekrīt, ka šo līdzekļu piešķiršana ir balstīta uz konkrēta lēmuma un ar precīzu mērķi.
English: With effect from 1 January 2003, the balance of DKK 72 million of this reserve was released and is consequently at TV2's disposal to use for any purpose it wishes. The Commission is therefore of the opinion that the balance, which in fact can be compared to any other source of cash financing for covering TV2's operating costs, may result in overcompensation.
Latvian: Tāpēc Komisijas uzskata, ka atlikuma summa, kas var tikt salīdzināta ar jebkuru citu “TV2” izdevumu finansējuma avotu, var tikt uzskatīta par pārmērīgu kompensāciju.
English: A meeting with the complainant was held on 3 May 2000. By letters of 28 February 2001, 3 May 2001 and 11 December 2001 the complainant submitted additional information.
Polish: Spotkanie ze stroną wnoszącą skargę odbyło się dnia 3 maja 2000 r. Pismami datowanymi na 28 lutego 2001 r., 3 maja 2001 r. i 11 grudnia 2001 r. skarżący dostarczył kolejnych informacji.
English: By letter of 5 June 2002 the Commission requested information from the Danish authorities, who replied by letter of 10 July 2002. Two meetings with the Danish authorities were held on 25 October 2002 and 19 November 2002. Additional information was sent by letters of 19 November 2002 and 3 December 2002.
Polish: W piśmie z dnia 5 czerwca 2002 r. służby Komisji przesłały do władz duńskich pisemną prośbę o udzielenie informacji, na którą władze duńskie odpowiedziały pismem z dnia 10 lipca 2002 r. Odbyły się dwa spotkania z władzami duńskimi w dniu 25 października 2002 r. i 19 listopada 2002 r. Dodatkowe informacje zostały udzielone pismami datowanymi na 19 listopada 2002 r. i 3 grudnia 2002 r.
English: TvDanmark submitted comments by letter of 14 April 2003. The Association of Commercial Television in Europe (hereinafter referred to as ACT) sent comments by letter of 14 April 2003. The commercial broadcasters, Antena 3 TV and Gestevisión Telecinco, submitted comments on 16 April 2003. The commercial broadcaster, TV3, submitted comments by letter of 14 April 2003. The Commission forwarded the comments to Denmark, which responded to them by letter of 12 September 2003.
Polish: TvDanmark przesłała swoje uwagi w piśmie z dnia 14 kwietnia 2003 r. Europejskie Stowarzyszenie Telewizji Komercyjnych (Association of Commercial Television in Europe (ACT)) przysłało swoje uwagi w piśmie z dnia 14 kwietnia 2003 r. Telewizja komercyjna Antena 3 i Gestevision Telecinco przysłały swe uwagi dnia 14 kwietnia 2003 r. Nadawca komercyjny TV3 przysłał uwagi w piśmie z dnia 14 kwietnia 2003 r. Komisja przekazała te uwagi Danii, która ustosunkowała się do nich w piśmie z dnia 12 września 2003 r.
English: The complainant sent the Commission further information by letters of 15 December 2003 and 6 January 2004. On 17 December 2003 a meeting was held between the complainant and the Commission in order to clarify the information submitted in the complainant's letter of 15 December 2003. The Commission forwarded the information to the Danish Government, which responded by letter of 15 March 2004. On 9 February 2004 a meeting was held between the Danish authorities and the Commission.
Polish: Komisja otrzymała dalsze informacje od skarżącego w listach datowanych na 15 grudnia 2003 r. i 6 stycznia 2004 r. W dniu 17 grudnia 2003 r. odbyło się spotkanie podmiotu wnoszącego skargę ze służbami Komisji mające na celu wyjaśnienie informacji zawartych w piśmie z 15 grudnia 2003 r. Komisja udostępniła te informacje rządowi duńskiemu, który ustosunkował się do nich w piśmie z dnia 15 marca 2004 r. Spotkanie władz duńskich i urzędników Komisji odbyło się dnia 9 lutego 2004 r.
English: The whole of the TV2 programme platform is considered to be public service. Section 6a(1) of the Broadcasting Act states: ‘All public service activities shall provide the Danish population, through television, radio, Internet and the like, with a wide range of programmes and services comprising news coverage, general information, education, art and entertainment.
Polish: Cała oferta programowa TV2 uważana jest za usługę publiczną zgodnie z sekcją 6 lit. a) pkt 1 ustawy o nadawaniu, która stanowi: „Wszyscy nadawcy świadczący usługi publiczne mają obowiązek dostarczania wszystkim mieszkańcom Danii, za pośrednictwem telewizji, radia, Internetu lub podobnych mediów szerokiej gamy programów i usług, obejmujących aktualne wiadomości, informacje ogólne, treści edukacyjne, sztukę i rozrywkę.
English: Second, it argues that it was necessary to build up capital in order to enable TV2 to absorb fluctuations in advertising income, thereby ensuring that the public service task assigned to it could be performed.
Portuguese: Em segundo lugar, alega que foi necessário mobilizar capital a fim de permitir que a TV2 absorvesse as flutuações das receitas de publicidade, salvaguardando desta forma o cumprimento da missão de serviço público atribuída à TV2.
Polish: Po drugie utrzymuje, że niezbędne było zgromadzenie kapitału własnego, aby umożliwić TV2 przetrwanie wahań cen na rynku reklam i w ten sposób zabezpieczyć wykonanie usług publicznych powierzonych stacji TV2.
English: Introduced by Act No 1208 of 27 December 1996 and incorporated in Section 60a of the 1997 version of the Broadcasting Act and repealed on 1 January 2002 by Act No 259 of 8 May 2002. The rate of the fee was set per inhabitant of the local area covered by the fee and increased every year.
Polish: Wprowadzona ustawą nr 1208 z dnia 27 grudnia 1996 r. i włączone do sekcji 60a ustawy o nadawaniu w wersji z roku 1997 uchylonej dnia 1 stycznia 2002 r. ustawą nr 259 z dnia 8 maja 2002 r. Wysokość opłaty zostaje ustalona w przeliczeniu na mieszkańca obszaru objętego tą opłatą i co roku podwyższana.
English: They were highest in the UK (EUR 90), Portugal (EUR 80) and Belgium (EUR 73). [48] CPM (cost per thousand) represents either the cost to generate 1000 gross impressions within the group or the cost to reach 1000 different individuals in the group. [49] Television contact prices for Norway and Denmark are estimated on the basis of information from the local SBS station. The estimates for print media were provided by a media agency.
Polish: Największe wydatki zanotowano w Zjednoczonym Królestwie (90 EUR), w Portugalii (80 EUR) oraz Belgii (73 EUR).
English: Reklame A/S was under a statutory obligation to transfer the income it generated to the TV2 Fund. The resources, consisting of licence fees and adverting revenue, were then transferred to TV2 by decision of the Minister of Culture.
Portuguese: Os recursos, que eram constituídos pelas taxas de televisão e receitas provenientes da publicidade, eram então transferidos para a TV2 em conformidade com a decisão do ministro da Cultura.
English: By waiving servicing charges the State forgoes income and therefore it is clear that these funds constitute State resources within the meaning of Article 87(1). Furthermore, it is the Danish State that guarantees the operating loans.
Portuguese: Ao renunciar aos juros e aos pagamentos relativamente a estes empréstimos, o Estado renuncia a receitas e é, por conseguinte, evidente que estes fundos constituem recursos estatais na acepção do n.o 1 do artigo 87.o Além disso, é o Estado dinamarquês que garante os empréstimos ao funcionamento.
English: See Aid No NN 70/98, ‘State aid to public broadcasting channels Kinderkanal and Phoenix’ ( OJ C 238, 21.
Portuguese: Ver auxílio estatal NN 70/98, «Auxílio estatal a favor dos canais de radiodifusão públicos “Kinderkanal” e “Phoenix”» ( JO C 238 de 21.
English: The Commission notes that TvDanmark considers that the other measures that have benefited TV2, such as the exemption from interest payments and tax and the access to a nationwide transmission frequency on favourable terms, should also be taken into account for the assessment of the overcompensation. These benefits are summarised in the table below:
Slovak: Komisia poznamenáva, že TvDanmark sa domnieva, že pri hodnotení nadmernej kompenzácie treba tiež zohľadniť aj ostatné opatrenia v prospech TV2, tak oslobodenie od platenia úrokov a daní, ako aj prístup k vysielacej frekvencii pokrývajúcej územie celého štátu za výhodných podmienok, Tieto výhody sú zhrnuté v nasledujúcej tabuľke:
English: These prices have been calculated by dividing the relevant stations' national advertising spot turnover by the number of national TRP 21-50 delivered, as shown below: Table 3
Slovak: Tieto ceny vznikli delením obratu relevantných staníc celoštátne vysielaných reklamných spotov počtom dodávateľov TRP 21-50:
English: Furthermore, the Commission expressed doubts as to possible anti-competitive behaviour by TV2 in the advertising market. The Broadcasting Communication indicates that ‘a public service broadcaster, in so far as lower revenues are covered by the State aid, might be tempted to depress the prices of advertising or other non-public service activities on the market, so as to reduce the revenue of competitors.
Slovenian: Prav tako je Komisija izrazila dvome o možnosti protikonkurenčnega ravnanja TV2 na oglaševalskem trgu, kakor je izraženo v Sporočilu o oddajanju: „javna radijska in televizijska postaja – kadar se nižji prihodki krijejo iz državne pomoči – lahko poskuša znižati cene na trgu za oglaševanje ali druge komercialne dejavnosti, da bi s tem zmanjšala prihodke konkurentov.
