English: RMG holds certain investments in Government securities or National Loan Fund deposits, classed as current assets and often referred to as the ‘gilts’. They are subject to a specific legal regime of directions by the UK authorities under section 72 of the Post Office Act 2000. Following directions dated 30 January 2003, RMG placed these assets in a special reserve (‘the Mails Reserve’), to be used for financing specific measures as directed.
Danish: RMG har visse investeringer i statsobligationer eller indskud i National Loan Fund, der er klassificeret som omsætningsaktiver og ofte omtales som »gilts«. De er underlagt en særlig retlig ordning med påbud fra de britiske myndigheder i henhold til § 72 i Post Office Act 2000. Efter påbud af 30. januar 2003 placerede RMG disse aktiver i en særlig reserve (»postreserven«), som skulle anvendes til at finansiere specifikke foranstaltninger efter nærmere bestemmelse.
English: The labour changes proposed will impact virtually every part of the RMG’s business. For example:
French: Les changements relatifs au travail proposés affecteront pratiquement chaque partie des activités de RMG, par exemple:
German: Die vorgeschlagenen Veränderungen im Personalbestand betreffen nahezu jeden Bereich der RGM, beispielsweise:
Dutch: De voorgenomen veranderingen ten aanzien van het personeelsbestand zullen vrijwel elk onderdeel van de activiteiten van RMG raken, bijvoorbeeld:
Latvian: Ierosinātās darbaspēka izmaiņas ietekmēs praktiski ikvienu RMG uzņēmējdarbības jomu, piemēram:
English: In its submissions, the United Kingdom provided much more information on the restructuring plan. In particular it presented:
German: Das Vereinigte Königreich hat noch weitere Informationen zum Umstrukturierungsplan vorgelegt, insbesondere:
Dutch: In het kader van zijn opmerkingen verschafte het Verenigd Koninkrijk veel meer informatie over het herstructureringsplan en, met name:
Finnish: Yhdistynyt kuningaskunta on lausunnoissaan antanut paljon lisätietoa rakenneuudistussuunnitelmasta, erityisesti:
English: Article 107(1) of the Treaty is concerned with aid granted by a Member State or through State resources. In other words, the measures in question must appear as the result of behaviour attributable to the State or must involve State resources.
German: (139) Artikel 107 Absatz 1 AEUV betrifft staatliche oder aus staatlichen Mitteln gewährte Beihilfen, d. h. die Maßnahmen müssen dem Staat zuzurechnen sein, oder es müssen staatliche Mittel verwendet werden.
English: Second of all, as with the previous cases, the Commission considers that in the absence of any State intervention to relieve RMG of at least part of the pension liabilities, RMG would not be able to compete on its merits with its competitors. After all, leaving RMG with the pension deficit would lead to its bankruptcy.
Greek: Δεύτερον, όπως και στις προηγούμενες υποθέσεις, η Επιτροπή θεωρεί ότι, χωρίς κρατική παρέμβαση για να απαλλαγεί η RMG τουλάχιστον από ένα μέρος των συνταξιοδοτικών υποχρεώσεών της, η RMG δεν θα ήταν σε θέση να ανταγωνιστεί τους ανταγωνιστές της με τις δικές της δυνάμεις.
English: According to the Commission, the United Kingdom did not convincingly demonstrate that the originally submitted restructuring plan would comply with the R&R Guidelines. In particular, the Commission doubted that RMG’s role as the sole universal service provider and the liabilities resulting from its public sector monopoly legacy would justify mitigating the conditions of the R&R Guidelines and notably those ensuring that competition distortions are limited and that the cost of restructuring is shared by the required 50 % own contribution.
Spanish: Según la Comisión, el Reino Unido no demostró de manera convincente que el plan de reestructuración presentado inicialmente permitiera cumplir lo establecido en las Directrices S y R. En particular, la Comisión dudaba de que la función de RMG como único prestador del servicio universal y el pasivo derivado de su monopolio heredado en el sector público justificaran una aplicación laxa de las condiciones de las Directrices S y R y, en especial, de las que garantizan una limitación de los falseamientos de la competencia y que el coste de la reestructuración se reparte mediante una contribución propia mínima del 50 %.
English: The United Kingdom therefore asks the Commission to take the legislative intent of Article 106(2) of the Treaty into account when assessing the measures under the R&R Guidelines. In support of its argument the United Kingdom points to case-law from the Court of Justice according to which the rules of the Treaty should be applied in consideration of the effective discharge and undistorted availability of the universal service in cases where an undertakings ability to deliver a core service is threatened, and in particular where the survival of the undertaking delivering this service is threatened [18].
Spanish: Por ello, las autoridades de ese país piden a la Comisión que tenga en cuenta la voluntas legis del artículo 106, apartado 2, del Tratado a la hora de evaluar las medidas con arreglo a las Directrices S y R. En apoyo de su tesis, el Reino Unido recuerda la jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia, según la cual las normas del Tratado deben aplicarse tomando en consideración el desempeño eficaz y la disponibilidad sin falseamiento del servicio universal en los casos en que la capacidad de una empresa para prestar un servicio básico está amenazada y, en particular, cuando la supervivencia de la empresa que presta ese servicio está amenazada [18].
English: Pursuant to points 38-42 of the R&R Guidelines, measures must be taken to mitigate as far as possible any adverse effects of the aid on competitors. The aid must not unduly distort competition.
Finnish: Pelastamis- ja rakenneuudistustuen suuntaviivojen 38–42 kohdan mukaan on toteutettava toimenpiteitä, joilla voidaan mahdollisuuksien mukaan lieventää tuesta kilpailijoille mahdollisesti aiheutuvia haittavaikutuksia.
Estonian: Päästmise ja ümberkorraldamise suuniste punktide 38–42 kohaselt tuleb võtta meetmeid, mis leevendaksid nii palju kui võimalik abist tulenevaid ebasoodsaid tagajärgi konkurentidele.
English: RMG has held a license to provide letter services in the United Kingdom under the Postal Services Act 2000 since 23 March 2001. Under the terms of its license, it is required to discharge the universal service obligation (‘USO’). These arrangements implement the requirements of Directive 97/67/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 December 1997 on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service [5] (‘Postal Services Directive’). RMG is required by its license to negotiate commercial agreements with any interested operator for access to its national network. New operators have tended to enter the market through such access agreements with RMG.
Finnish: RMG:llä on ollut kirjepalvelujen tarjoamista koskeva lisenssi Yhdistyneessä kuningaskunnassa Postal Services Act 2000 -lain nojalla (jäljempänä ’vuoden 2000 postipalvelulaki’) 23 päivästä maaliskuuta 2001. Lisenssiehtojen mukaan sen on noudatettava yleispalveluvelvoitetta. Nämä järjestelyt vastaavat yhteisön postipalvelujen sisämarkkinoiden kehittämistä ja palvelun laadun parantamista koskevista yhteisistä säännöistä 15 päivänä joulukuuta 1997 annetussa Euroopan parlamentin ja neuvoston direktiivissä 97/67/EY [5], jäljempänä ’postipalveludirektiivi’, esitettyjä vaatimuksia. RMG:n on lisenssin mukaisesti neuvoteltava kaupalliset sopimukset muiden toimijoiden kanssa, jotka haluavat päästä sen kansalliseen verkkoon. Uudet toimijat ovat yleensä päässeet markkinoille RMG:n kanssa tehtyjen markkinoillepääsysopimusten perusteella.

English: Just fewer than 400 of these are directly owned and managed by POL. All others are privately owned and operated by subpostmasters or franchise partners.
Hungarian: Ezek közül alig kevesebb mint 400-at birtokol és irányít közvetlenül a POL. Az összes többi magántulajdonban van, és alpostamesterek vagy franchise-partnerek működtetik.
English: Labour related restructuring is at the heart of the RMG’s changes to ensure that a financially sustainable universal service can be provided for the long term in the United Kingdom. RMG has already made progress and intends to significantly reduce its workforce further through a programme of voluntary redundancy and natural attrition over the period of the plan.
Hungarian: Az RMG változásainak középpontjában, amelynek célja, hogy az Egyesült Királyságban hosszú távon pénzügyileg fenntartható egyetemes szolgáltatást lehessen nyújtani, a munkaerőhöz kapcsolódó átszervezés áll. Az RMG már eddig is ért el előrelépést e téren, és egy önkéntes kilépési program és a természetes létszámcsökkenés útján a terv időtartama alatt jelentős mértékben tovább szándékozik csökkenteni a személyi állományát.
English: These new methods represent a major change for RMG and the change being implemented, including the expenditure incurred, will facilitate longer, flexible delivery spans. This, in turn, allows RMG to reduce the number of delivery routes and outdoor delivery operating costs.
Polish: Te nowe metody stanowią dużą zmianę dla RMG, której wdrożenie, w tym ponoszone wydatki, umożliwią dłuższe, elastyczne okresy doręczania, co z kolei umożliwi RMG zmniejszenie liczby tras doręczania i koszów operacyjnych doręczania w terenie.
Hungarian: Ezek az új módszerek nagy változást jelentenek az RMG számára, és a jelenleg végrehajtott változás a felmerült kiadásokkal együtt hosszabb, rugalmasabb kézbesítési időkereteket tesz lehetővé, ezzel pedig lehetővé válik az RMG számára, hogy csökkentse a kézbesítési útvonalak számát és a személyes kézbesítés működési költségeit.
English: The capacity restructuring consists of the automation of the sorting centres and the introduction of new delivery methods to achieve more efficient operations. The most important capacity restructuring cost items are inter alia:
Hungarian: A kapacitáshoz kapcsolódó szerkezetátalakítás a válogatóközpontok automatizálásából és a működés hatékonyabbá tételét célzó új kézbesítési módszerek bevezetéséből áll. A kapacitáshoz kapcsolódó szerkezetátalakítás költségeinek legfontosabb elemei többek között
English: RMG has held a license to provide letter services in the United Kingdom under the Postal Services Act 2000 since 23 March 2001. Under the terms of its license, it is required to discharge the universal service obligation (‘USO’).
Italian: Dal 23 marzo 2001 RMG detiene la licenza per la gestione di servizi postali nel Regno Unito ai sensi del Postal Services Act del 2000; secondo tale licenza, RMG è tenuto ad adempiere al suo obbligo di servizio universale («OSU»).
English: The devices allow RMG to track items in real time. This removes the need for further processing of signatures and receipts on paper when the postman or woman has finished deliveries.
Italian: I dispositivi consentono a RMG di tracciare gli invii postali in tempo reale, eliminando la necessità di elaborare ulteriormente le firme e le ricevute su supporto cartaceo una volta che il portalettere ha terminato le proprie consegne.
English: The United Kingdom emphasises its position with regards to the applicability of the legacy cost reasoning along the lines of the La Poste, EDF [19] and OTE [20] case-law to the present case. The United Kingdom maintains its position that, despite of the technical differences between the United Kingdom and French pension systems a sufficient logical analogy remained which allowed for a legacy cost reasoning to be applied to this case.
Italian: Il Regno Unito sottolinea la propria posizione in merito all’applicabilità del ragionamento sui costi ereditati dal passato richiamando l’applicazione della giurisprudenza La Poste, EDF [19] e OTE [20] al caso in esame. il Regno Unito ribadisce che, nonostante le differenze esistenti sul piano tecnico fra i regimi pensionistici britannico e francese, permane un’analogia logica sufficiente tale da permettere di applicare il ragionamento sui costi ereditati dal passato anche al caso in esame.
English: As regards the assessment whether the debt reduction measures provide a selective advantage, the Commission assesses this type of measures under the private creditor test [29]. This test asks whether a private creditor in the same situation would have acted the same way in order to maximise its chances to recover its credit.
Italian: Per quanto concerne la valutazione dell’eventuale vantaggio selettivo rappresentato delle misure di riduzione del debito, la Commissione valuta questo tipo di misure sulla base del criterio del creditore privato [29], secondo il quale ci si chiede se un creditore privato in circostanze analoghe avrebbe agito nello stesso modo, facendo tutto quanto possibile per recuperare il credito.
English: First, as RMG bears — apart from the pension costs — the same level of costs as competitors for the other social insurances (for example the financing terms for health and unemployment insurances do not differ from those of competitors), the benchmarking has to be carried out with regard to the funding of pension’s liabilities. It has to be ensured that RMG is placed in the same position as competitors in respect of their obligations as regards the financing of pension funds.
Italian: Innanzitutto, poiché RMG sostiene per gli altri contributi sociali (a parte i costi delle pensioni) il medesimo livello di oneri dei suoi concorrenti (ad esempio le condizioni finanziarie riguardo ai contributi di assistenza sanitaria e di disoccupazione non sono diverse da quelle dei concorrenti), l’analisi comparativa deve essere effettuata rispetto al finanziamento delle passività delle pensioni, per verificare che RMG si trovi nella stessa posizione dei suoi concorrenti rispetto ai loro obblighi in merito al finanziamento dei fondi pensione.
English: In that regard, the Commission notes that not all costs should automatically qualify as restructuring costs. According to the Commission, the costs for the separation of POL are not related to the restructuring of RMG’s letter business but rather to the future privatisation of RMG and can therefore not be accepted as eligible restructuring costs.
Italian: Al riguardo, la Commissione osserva che non tutti i suddetti costi possono qualificarsi automaticamente come costi di ristrutturazione; essa ritiene infatti che i costi per la separazione da POL non siano collegati alla ristrutturazione del settore recapito lettere di RMG ma piuttosto alla futura privatizzazione di RMG e non possano pertanto rientrare tra i costi di ristrutturazione ammissibili.
English: The compulsory limitation or reduction of the company’s presence on the relevant market represents a compensatory factor in favour of its competitors. It should be in proportion to the distortive effects of the aid and to the relative importance of the firm on its market or markets.
Italian: La limitazione o riduzione obbligatoria della presenza della società sui mercati rilevanti rappresenta un fattore di compensazione a favore dei suoi concorrenti che deve essere proporzionale agli effetti distorsivi dell’aiuto e all’importanza relativa dell’impresa sul proprio mercato di riferimento.

English: According to the United Kingdom, the size and volatility of the RMPP is out of all proportion to RMG’s current business and has proved to be a severe handicap to RMG’s ability to compete on its own merits in the liberalised United Kingdom postal market. The United Kingdom believes that by taking certain liabilities over from the RMPP and thereby contributing to the restoration of RMG’s viability, RMG will, as the sole universal service provider in the United Kingdom, have the ability to adapt to the liberalised industry environment through modernisation.
Maltese: Skont ir-Renju Unit, id-daqs u l-volatilità tal-RMPP hija ‘il barra minn kull proporzjon tan-negozju attwali tal-RMG u ntwera li huwa piż serju fuq il-ħila tal-RMG biex tikkompeti bil-merti tagħha fis-suq postali liberalizzat fir-Renju Unit. Ir-Renju Unit jemmen li billi ċerti obbligazzjonijiet jittieħdu mill-RMPP u b’hekk jikkontribwixxu lejn ir-ritorn għall-vijabbiltà tal-RMG, l-RMG se, bħala l-uniku fornitur ta’ servizz universali fir-Renju Unit, ikollha l-kapaċità li tadatta għall-ambjent liberalizzat tal-industrija permezz ta’ modernizzar.
English: These obligations include the payment of contributions, in particular to address the deficit, and are reflected in the fact that the deficit is recorded on RMG’s balance sheet as required by rule 19 of the International Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as IAS). Therefore, the Commission finds that the taking over of certain accrued pensions liabilities by the United Kingdom will relieve RMG of financial obligations that the undertaking would normally have had to bear and thus prevent market forces from producing their normal effect.
Maltese: Dawn l-obbligi jinkludu l-ħlas tal-kontribuzzjonijiet, b’mod partikolari biex ikun indirizzat id-defiċit, u huma riflessi fil-fatt li d-defiċit huwa rreġistrat fuq il-karta bilanċjali tal-RMG skont l-Artikolu 19 tal-Istandards Internazzjonali tal-Kontabbiltà (minn issa ‘l quddiem imsejjaħ l-IAS). Għalhekk, il-Kummissjoni jidhrilha li l-akkwist ta’ ċerti obbligazzjonijiet ta’ pensjonijiet dovuti mir-Renju Unit ser jeħles lill-RMG mill-obbligi finanzjarji li l-impriża kieku normalment kien ikollha ġġorr u b’hekk timpedxxi lill-forzi tas-suq milli jipproduċu l-effett normali tagħhom.
English: Second, in the previous cases, the Commission approved a level of aid such that the postal incumbent’s future social costs were capped at the competitors’ social contribution rates. The United Kingdom reform does not go that far but leaves RMG the full financial responsibility for any deficit that results from the newly accrued pension rights.
Maltese: It-tieni, fil-każijiet preċedenti, il-Kummissjoni approvat livell tal-għajnuna li permezz tiegħu l-ispejjeż soċjali futuri tal-operatur postali jkunu limitati skont ir-rati tal-kontribuzzjonijiet soċjali tal-kompetituri.
English: This conclusion also applies on the basis of the reasonable downside scenario (an additional […] decline in volumes over the period of the restructuring plan) submitted to the Commission on 30 November 2011 as part of the sensitivity analysis. Under such a downside scenario, by March 2015 RMG would be in a position to:
Dutch: Deze conclusie geldt eveneens wanneer wordt uitgegaan van het aannemelijke pessimistische scenario (een extra […] daling van het volume in de periode van het herstructureringsplan) dat op 30 november 2011 aan de Commissie is voorgelegd in het kader van de gevoeligheidsanalyse.
