English: That draft royal decree was registered under the number N 54/04. The Belgian authorities stated that this new draft royal decree was an amendment to the draft royal decree notified in 2001 by Belgium and approved by the Commission by Decision N 21/02 of 13 February 2002 [6], as well as to another draft discussed informally with the Commission in 2003. Neither of those two drafts had been implemented, however, and the decree notified in 2004 constituted their recasting.
Maltese: Huma nnotifikaw ukoll abbozz ta’ digriet irjali marbut mal-finanzjament tal-iskrining tat-TSE fl-annimali (minn hawn ‘il quddiem “digriet irjali TSE”). Dan l-abbozz ta’ digriet irjali ġie rreġistrat bin-numru N 54/04. L-awtoritajiet Belġjani indikaw li dan l-abbozz ġdid ta’ digriet irjali kien emenda għall-abbozz tad-digriet irjali nnotifikat fl-2001 mill-Belġju u approvat mill-Kummissjoni permezz tad-Deċiżjoni N 21/02 tat-13 ta’ Frar 2002 [6], kif ukoll ta’ abbozz ieħor diskuss b’mod informali mal-Kummissjoni fl-2003. L-ebda wieħed minn dawn l-abbozzi madankollu ma ġie implimentat, u d-digriet innotifikat fl-2004 kien ir-riformulazzjoni tagħhom.
English: The reimbursement of the amounts exceeding the EUR 40 authorised by the Community guidelines for State aid concerning TSE tests, fallen stock and slaughterhouse waste [8] of 24 December 2002 (the TSE guidelines), and which were prefinanced after 1 January 2003, would be the subject of another draft which would be submitted to the Commission and which would address the reimbursement of that prefinancing. That royal decree was adopted on 15 October 2004 [9] and entered into force on 1 December 2004.
Maltese: Ir-rimborż tal-ammonti li jaqbżu EUR 40 awtorizzati mil-linji gwida Komunitarji dwar l-għajnuna mill-Istat marbuta mat-testijiet tat-TSE, għall-bhejjem li jinsabu mejta u għall-iskart tal-biċċeriji [8] tal-24 ta’ Diċembru 2002 (minn hawn ‘il quddiem “il-linji gwida TSE”), u li ġew iffinanzjati minn qabel wara l-1 ta’ Jannar 2003 kienu s-suġġett ta’ abbozz ieħor li kellu jkun ippreżentat lill-Kummissjoni, u li kellu jindirizza r-retribuzzjoni ta’ dan il-finanzjament minn qabel. Dan id-digriet irjali ġie adottat fil-15 ta’ Ottubru 2004 [9] u daħal fis-seħħ fl-1 ta’ Diċembru 2004.
English: from 1 January 2006: financing via a fee of EUR 10,70 for each bovine animal tested and from contributions imposed on seven different sectors [23]. These contributions are also designed to reimburse the costs of the BSE tests prefinanced since 1 January 2002.
Maltese: mill-1 ta’ Jannar 2006: finanzjament permezz ta’ retribuzzjoni ta’ EUR 10,70 għal kull bovin ittestjat u ta’ kontribuzzjonijiet imposti fuq 7 setturi differenti [23] Dawn il-kontribuzzjonijiet iservu wkoll sabiex iħallsu lura l-kostijiet tat-testijiet għall-BSE li kienu ġew iffinanzjati minn qabel sa mill-1 ta’ Jannar 2002.
English: In light of the above, the Commission considers that the financing of the BSE tests through contributions and other State resources as indicated above is an advantage, financed through State resources. This advantage distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain enterprises and certain productions and is thereby likely to affect trade between Member States.
Maltese: Il-Kummissjoni tqis li, fid-dawl ta’ dak li ntqal, il-finanzjament tat-testijiet għall-BSE permezz tal-kontribuzzjonijiet u riżorsi oħrajn tal-Istat kif indikat aktar ‘il fuq huwa vantaġġ, iffinanzjat mir-riżorsi tal-Istat. Dan il-vantaġġ ifixkel jew jhedded li jfixkel il-kompetizzjoni billi jiffavorixxi ċerti kumpaniji u ċerti produzzjonijiet, peress li jista’ jaffettwa l-kummerċ bejn l-Istati Membri.
English: Pursuant to point 23.3 of the Community Guidelines for State aid in the agricultural sector [39] for the period 2000-06 (hereinafter ‘the 2000-06 agricultural guidelines’) and the Commission notice on the determination of the applicable rules for the assessment of unlawful State aid [40], all unlawful aid within the meaning of Article 1(f) of Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 of 22 March 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Article 93 of the EC Treaty [41] must be assessed in accordance with the rules and guidelines in force at the time the aid was granted. In 2002, the Commission adopted the TSE guidelines. They applied between 1 January 2003 and 31 December 2006 [42]. Point 44 of the TSE guidelines provides that, except for cases relating in particular to BSE tests, unlawful aid within the meaning of Article 1(f) of Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 is to be examined in accordance with the rules and guidelines applicable at the time the aid was granted. Given that the aid was granted between 1 January 2001 and 31 December 2005, the TSE guidelines are the appropriate framework for examining this aid.
Maltese: Taħt il-punt 23.3 tal-linji gwida tal-Komunità dwar l-għajnuna mill-Istat fil-qasam agrikolu [39] li jikkonċernaw il-perjodu 2000-2006 (minn hawn ‘il quddiem il-Linji Gwida dwar l-Agrikoltura 2000-2006) u tal-Komunikazzjoni tal-Kummissjoni dwar l-istabbiliment tar-regoli applikabbli għall-valutazzjoni tal-għajnuna illegali mill-Istat [40], kull għajnuna illegali fil-kuntest tal-Artikolu 1(f), tar-Regolament tal-Kunsill (KE) Nru 659/1999 tat-22 ta’ Marzu 1999 li jistabbilixxi metodi ddettaljati għall-applikazzjoni tal-Artikolu 93 tat-Trattat tal-KE [41] għandha tkun evalwata skont ir-regoli u l-linji gwida fis-seħħ fil-mument li tingħata l-għajnuna. Fl-2002, il-Kummissjoni adottat il-linji gwida dwar it-TSE. Dawn il-linji gwida kienu applikabbli bejn l-1 ta’ Jannar 2003 u l-31 ta’ Diċembru 2006 [42]. Fil-punt 44 tal-linji gwida dwar it-TSE, huwa previst li, barra l-każijiet relatati, b’mod partikolari għat-testijiet għall-BSE, l-għajnuna illegali skont l-Artikolu 1(f) tar-Regolament (KE) Nru 659/1999 se tkun eżaminata skont ir-regoli u l-linji gwida applikabbli fil-mument li ngħatat l-għajnuna. Minħabba li l-għajnuna ngħatat bejn l-1 ta’ Jannar 2001 u l-31 ta’ Diċembru 2005, il-linji gwida dwar it-TSE huma r-regoli rilevanti għall-evalwazzjoni ta’ din l-għajnuna.
English: It is incompatible for the period from 1 January 2003 to 30 June 2004. The incompatible portion of the aid consists of the amount in excess of EUR 40 per test and has been assessed by Belgium as EUR 6619810,74.
Dutch: De steunmaatregel is onverenigbaar voor de periode van 1 januari 2003 tot en met 30 juni 2004, en wel voor een door België aangegeven bedrag van 6619810,74 EUR, zijnde de totale steun die het maximumbedrag van 40 EUR per test te boven ging.
English: The legal basis for this measure is the Law of 27 December 2002 on the general budget of expenditure for 2003. The measure exempted under number XA 54/04 provides for a maximum aid intensity of EUR 33,38 per test, and was implemented on 15 October 2004.
Polish: Podstawę prawną tego środka stanowi ustawa z dnia 27 grudnia 2002 r. dotycząca ogólnego budżetu wydatków na 2003 r. Środek wyłączony pod numerem XA 54/04, wdrożony dnia 15 października 2004 r., przewiduje maksymalną intensywność pomocy w wysokości 33,38 EUR na test.
English: As indicated in Decision N 9/05 and N 10/05, the selectivity criterion is met when the advantage is reserved for some enterprises or one sector. In this case, at national level, the financing of the BSE tests by the State only benefited one given sector, namely the sector involved in breeding animals subject to BSE tests. At Community level, the fact that the BSE tests were financed by the State or through State resources favoured Belgian enterprises and gave those enterprises an advantage over their foreign competitors for whom the mandatory BSE tests were not financed by the State or through State resources.
Portuguese: Como indicado na Decisão N 9/2005 e N 10/05, o critério de selectividade está preenchido quando a vantagem é exclusiva de algumas empresas, ou de um sector de actividade.
English: In the preamble to the TSE guidelines (points 8 and 9), it was clearly indicated that the ongoing harmonisation obliging the sector to support the costs was slow, and that the Commission had thus decided to clarify and modify its policy on State aids with regard to the costs generated by the BSE tests. Point 24 of the TSE guidelines, for its part, indicates that the examination requirement could be based on Community or national legislation. This point clearly indicates that there is no Community harmonisation with regard to the obligation to perform the tests, which implies that this could also lead to an aid selectively benefiting the enterprises of a given Member State. In conclusion, the measures financed through State resources, including the contributions, give a selective advantage to farmers, slaughterhouses and other entities that process, handle, sell or trade in bovine animal products that are subject to compulsory BSE testing under the applicable legislation, by reducing the costs they must pay. These advantages are not conferred by direct payments, but by the public authorities covering the costs of the BSE tests by directly paying the laboratories which perform the tests on request from the slaughterhouses and invoice the costs to the FASFC.
Portuguese: No presente caso, no plano nacional, o financiamento dos testes EEB pelo Estado só beneficia um sector determinado (criação de animais sujeitos a testes EEB. No plano comunitário, o financiamento pelo Estado, ou por recursos estatais, dos testes EEB a favor das empresas belgas, confere a essas empresas uma vantagem relativamente aos seus concorrentes estrangeiros, para os quais o financiamento dos testes obrigatórios EEB não é tomado a cargo pelo Estado, nem efectuado por recursos estatais. O preâmbulo às Orientações EET (pontos 8 e 9) indicava claramente que a harmonização em curso, que exige que o sector suporte os custos, é lenta, motivo pelo qual a Comissão tinha decidido clarificar e alterar a sua política de auxílios estatais no que respeita aos custos dos testes EEB. O ponto 24 das Orientações EET indica, por seu turno, que a obrigatoriedade dos testes pode basear-se na legislação comunitária ou na legislação nacional. O ponto em questão indica claramente não existir harmonização comunitária no que respeita à obrigação de efectuar testes, o que implica que um auxílio selectivo que desse vantagem às empresas de um Estado-Membro poderia também produzir-se, por esse motivo. Em suma, as medidas financiadas por recursos estatais, tais como as contribuições, concedem uma vantagem selectiva aos agricultores, matadouros e outras entidades que procedem à transformação, manipulação, venda ou comercialização dos produtos provenientes de bovinos sujeitos a testes obrigatórios EEB por força da legislação aplicável, dado que reduzem os custos suportados pelos beneficiários em causa. Essas vantagens não são concedidas por pagamentos directos, mas sim mediante a tomada a cargo dos custos dos testes EEB pelas autoridades públicas, que pagam directamente esses custos aos laboratórios que os efectuam a pedido dos matadouros e cobram os referidos custos à AFSCA.
