5.   ITALYS COMMENTS ON THE DOUBTS EXPRESSED IN THE FIRST INTIATING DECISION

| (63) | Italy acknowledged that the information available to the Commission on the projects questioned in the first initiating decision was wholly insufficient. Italy also acknowledged that because of this lack of information the Commission was right to express doubts regarding those projects. To dispel these doubts, Italy provided extensive information on the projects, notably concerning the eligibility of costs at the research stages and the incentive effect of the aid. |

| (64) | On the A109 D/E/F project, Italy provided a detailed description of the R & D work with regard to the development of the helicopter, in particular concerning the installation of a new type of engine, the skids, the rotor, the avionic systems, and the fuselage. The Italian authorities also provided the schedule for the projects, showing that the innovations in these components came well before their certification, which took place in 1998, and their incorporation into in the A109 Power helicopter equipped with the Turbomeca engine, which was certified in June 2001. This succession of events, the Italian authorities argued, also showed that the aid did have an incentive effect, as the technologies were new and had not been installed in any aircraft. |

| (76) | Concerning the incentive effect of the aid received for these projects, Finmeccanica submitted the following:






  a) | For the two helicopters (A109 D/E/F and A109 X), Finmeccanica submitted that in its view the company would not have been able to carry out the projects without the aid, because of the risks involved, associated with the prospect of return only over a long period of time. Second, Finmeccanica submitted that the expenditure and personnel devoted to R & D at Agusta had increased by four percentage points in the period from 1995 to 1999. |

Regarding the comments from France and the anonymous third party, Italy observed, first, that they went far beyond the scope of the proceedings. Italy complained that these attempts to widen the scope of the proceedings were not supported by evidence.

| (91) | Italy reiterated that in its view the scheme constituted existing aid, because it had been approved in 1986 (21), and because the Commission had accepted in 2002 that it had in effect been brought into line with the rules now governing aid to R & D (see recital 50). As it had been declared compatible, the scheme could not then be challenged in proceedings that were concerned only with individual measures adopted under it, unless it was shown that the original decision to approve the scheme was based on faulty information, in which case the decision might be revoked in accordance with Article 9 of the Procedural Regulation. |

Italy reiterated that in its view the scheme constituted existing aid, because it had been approved in 1986 (21), and because the Commission had accepted in 2002 that it had in effect been brought into line with the rules now governing aid to R & D (see recital 50). As it had been declared compatible, the scheme could not then be challenged in proceedings that were concerned only with individual measures adopted under it, unless it was shown that the original decision to approve the scheme was based on faulty information, in which case the decision might be revoked in accordance with Article 9 of the Procedural Regulation.

| (93) | The anonymous third party, Italy argued, was wrong to base itself on the reports to Parliament on the implementation of Law No 808/1985, because the figures indicated in the reports were not those actually granted for the projects. In the reports the Ministry had included its own targets for projects that could be financed under Law No 808/1985. However, in the budgetary process, the normal practice was that these targets were not covered by the available funding, which had been at levels far below those indicated in the abovementioned reports. The amounts indicated in the reports for the individual projects were also merely targets, because the Ministry decided the amount of aid actually to be granted to the individual project only after it had received the final budget, which, as already said, was usually normally far below the levels called for. |

According to Italy, reimbursements had to be made in accordance with the schedules laid down in the granting decisions. Under domestic law the State could renounce such a claim only in the specific case of liquidation of a company. |

| (101) | In reply to the allegations by the anonymous third party regarding the development of Agusta, Italy wrote that the information and data provided by the anonymous third party were not correct. Agusta had an average share of around [20-30 %] of the European market for light twin-engine helicopters in the period 1994-2000, compared to over 60 % for its main competitor, Eurocopter (22). Its turnover derived mainly from the military sector ([> 70 %]). In terms of products, Agusta had only one helicopter in two of the segments, compared to Eurocopters three or four in each of these segments. In the view of the Italian authorities, Agusta was a company that had been able to develop from being a minor player in the sector into a full competitor, thanks to legal and compatible aid towards R & D, to strategic alliances and to technological innovation. |

First, the Commission became aware of the existence of two documents indicating that the loans were not being reimbursed.

| (131) | The first document was submitted by the anonymous third party (29). This was a report by a major commercial bank concerning Finmeccanica's financial position. In this report, dated 12 August 2004, [the investment bank] wrote that Finmeccanica had stated that ‘the principal has to be repaid only once deliveries exceed a certain ([...]) volume, so that Finmeccanica has very low repayments in the first 15 years and is much less likely to have to repay all of the advance’. |

| (134) | According to the Court of Auditors, the mechanism laid down in the ministerial order required in particular that the planned reimbursements be set out in a chart showing the instalments to be paid back to the State.

The figures they gave were for the amounts of the loans rather than gross grant equivalents. The relationship between the amounts of loans and their gross grant equivalents depends on the manner of reimbursement of the aid. As has been explained in paragraphs 0 to 0, the third parties and the Italian authorities disagreed on these mechanisms. |

Not all the projects considered for aid in this report had actually been launched. Some of the projects that had in fact been initiated had not received aid, or had received less than was initially foreseen in the reports. Lastly, some of the projects were of a military nature. |

Thus they concerned all individual cases in which the Law had been applied, and among them all of the 13 cases (33), including those that had been considered not to require prior notification and those to which the Commission had raised no objection in its decision of 1 October 2003. |

(149)

In the first place, Italy indicated it was presenting its observations together with Finmeccanica.

| (150) | Italy pointed out that in the second initiating decision the Commission had acknowledged that the aid scheme introduced by Law No 808/1985 constituted an existing aid measure, as it had been approved by the Commission in 1986 and again in 2002. |

| (151) | Italy observed that the second initiating decision was based either on Article 16 of the Procedural Regulation or on Article 13. |
| --- | --- |

(151)

Italy observed that the second initiating decision was based either on Article 16 of the Procedural Regulation or on Article 13.

| (152) | Italy did not agree that there had been misuse of aid: that concept would apply only to misuse by the recipient of the aid it had received. All the aid granted under the scheme had been used for the purpose it was granted for. Italy objected to the term ‘misuse’ especially with regard to the individual aid granted after 20 November 2002. |

| (157) | Italy summarised the way the scheme had been adapted to the 1996 Framework and to the appropriate measures. It sketched the essential outline of the scheme in the future, which still needed to be transposed into a new internal regulation (34). |

| (158) | Italy commented on the question of reimbursement. For an authentic interpretation of the Court of Auditors report referred to in the second initiating decision, the Italian authorities had approached the Court itself. In reply the Court said, first and foremost, that the report was concerned only with the period up to 1998. Given the limited period covered, it would be wrong to draw general conclusions. |

In the second place, the Court said that the report confirmed that for all projects sales had started and reimbursements had been made, though with some delays.

| (160) | Lastly, as regards the possibility that the State might renounce its claim (which would be the case if the loans were not to be reimbursed), the Court confirmed that it was a general principle of Italian public administration that claims could not be abandoned. A ministerial order, the Court said, could not make provision for any such abandonment. In the report the Court had not mentioned any possibility that the public administration might renounce its claim to reimbursement. |

(162)

Italy said the Commission had expressed doubts regarding reimbursement partly because of the report from [the investment bank] on Finmeccanica referred to in the second initiating decision.

| (163) | But that report, according to Italy, made it clear that the sentence quoted in the second initiating decision — ‘the principal has to be repaid only once deliveries exceed a certain (high) volume, so that Finmeccanica has very low repayments in the first 15 years and is much less likely to have to repay all of the advance’ — was preceded by a sentence that showed that it referred to the companys defence business. |

| (166) | The aid instrument used was a soft loan, with fixed reimbursement schedules that were always adhered to, with a few limited exceptions. Furthermore, the loans had been paid out to recipients under ‘commitment limits’ over 10 to 15 years, or immediately in a single payment, but in this second case there was involvement on the part of a bank, which had to be discounted. Reimbursement started the first year after the last payment. |

Following the comments of the anonymous third party, the Italian authorities asked for clarification of the scope of the proceedings: did they relate to the whole scheme, or only to aid granted under the scheme in those cases that had to be notified to the Commission individually?

| (188) | Italy contended that the figures put forward by the anonymous third party, taken from the Ministry's website, covered ground broader than this particular scheme alone. They included not just aid granted under Law No 808/1985 but also other industrial programmes relating to national security ([...]) which were funded under other legislation. |

Italy argued that the fact that the scheme introduced by Law No 808/1985 allowed for funding of both civilian and military programmes had confused the anonymous third party. The Court of Auditors had been similarly misled in its report on Law No 808/1985.

| (200) | The anonymous third party referred in its observations to the 2004 annual report of Avio, quoting in particular the phrase ‘If no revenues are earned, no reimbursement is due’. The Italian authorities said they had asked the company for an explanation. The lawyer consulted by Avio had confirmed that the recipients of aid under the scheme were obliged to reimburse the sums received in full, irrespective of the success of the programme. Avio had stated that the statements in its 2004 annual report were based on an incorrect interpretation of the scheme, and would be modified in the following annual report. |

14.1.   Existence of aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty and applicable compatibility guidelines

(214)

These loans are provided via funds coming from the State budget, and therefore involve the use of state resources.

| (215) | The loans do not bear interest, thus conferring an advantage on companies receiving them over companies that have to finance their projects on market terms. In a soft loan the element of advantage is the difference between the interest that the undertaking would have to pay on an equivalent loan on commercial terms and the special low interest rate, which in the present case is zero. The principal is always reimbursed according to the schedule fixed at the time of granting, and the aid is the sum of the interest payments forgone by the State. |

These projects were not known to the Commission at the time of the first initiating decision. Some of them were mentioned in the second initiating decision as possible cases of non-notified individual aid.

| (226) | It cannot be argued, as Italy seeks to do, that investigation proceedings must define from the outset all the projects to which they relate, because when it initiates the proceedings the Commission does not necessarily know how many projects may be concerned. |

It cannot be argued, as Italy seeks to do, that investigation proceedings must define from the outset all the projects to which they relate, because when it initiates the proceedings the Commission does not necessarily know how many projects may be concerned.

| (227) | The present proceedings are concerned with individual applications of a scheme, individual cases that Italy should have notified but did not notify. The scale of Italy's failure to notify is exceptional: among other things, Italy failed to notify any of the projects over a period of more than ten years. As a consequence of this persistent violation of the obligation to notify laid down in Article 88(3), the Commission clearly indicated in the second initiating decision, in the light of the comments received from third parties and on the basis of the information available, that the proceedings related to all individual projects under the scheme that ought to have been notified individually. |

| (228) | The second initiating decision did not set any specific date with effect from which individual projects that had not been notified were to begin to be included in the scope of the proceedings and to be considered individual applications of Law No 808/1985. In any event, the Italian authorities frequently allowed the recipient not to reimburse the aid in full, and this must be considered to constitute new aid. |

In any event, the Italian authorities frequently allowed the recipient not to reimburse the aid in full, and this must be considered to constitute new aid.

| (229) | It is worth drawing attention to the importance of the individual notification of aid above certain thresholds for purposes of state aid control. The 2006 Framework clearly indicates that, in order better to focus the Commission's scrutiny, individual measures above certain thresholds are subject to a detailed assessment by the Commission. The purpose of the individual assessment is to ensure that high amounts of aid for R & D&I work carried out by the same recipient do not distort competition to an extent contrary to the common interest, but rather contribute to the common interest in a proportionate manner. |

| (234) | It became evident, however, that the aid instrument used by Italy, coupled with the way it was implemented, with delays in reimbursement, were such as to modify the assessment of the 13 projects. Italy has acknowledged that the information available to the Commission at that time was not correct and did not correspond to the real conditions of the aid which had been granted and which had not been correctly reimbursed. |

| (253) | Moreover, in practice, these schedules were often not adhered to, in two different ways. First, payments to the recipients were late compared to the initial schedules, either because the project was late, or because the State was late in making the payments. In some cases, therefore, the actual intensity of the aid was lower than the initial intensity. |

But more importantly, reimbursements did not abide by the initial schedules. As a consequence, in many cases the initial intensity increased as the recipients benefited from the further advantage of late reimbursement.

| (255) | While Italy has provided the Commission with a number of letters it sent to recipients requesting reimbursement, it is clear that such letters had limited effect. In some instances, several letters were sent to a recipient on the same project, but no steps were taken effectively to reimburse the loan, and there was no action on the part of the State to recover the claim (40). |

(256)

In conclusion, there were two potential problems with the aid granted to the projects: a) an initial intensity that in some cases was higher than the maximum intensity allowed; and b) insufficient reimbursement that allowed the intensity to increase even further.

| (257) | The Italian authorities, working together with the Commission, have defined a methodology that allows both problems to be solved. As a first step, a maximum intensity is defined for each project, which is the lower of two intensities, the maximum theoretical intensity (41) and the initial intensity. If the initial intensity is the lower, it can be said that the incentive effect of the specific amount of aid granted was sufficient to convince the company to commit itself to the project. Any increase in the intensity over the one fixed initially must necessarily be considered new aid. |

| (258) | The cumulative aid intensity is then calculated. In the year in which this cumulative intensity reaches the level of the maximum intensity defined in recital 257, the recipient has to reimburse the full outstanding principal. If the maximum intensity has already been reached, then compound interest is to be charged on the outstanding debt for the years until the date of the final reimbursement of the entire loan. The level of interest is the reference rate for the year in which the maximum intensity was reached, and then for each year of further delay. |

14.4.3.   The list of non-notified projects

| (260) | A shared and accurate understanding of the aid instrument made it possible to establish the list of projects that Italy ought to have notified individually. When aid takes the form of a soft loan, the significant value is the amount of interest forgone by the State. The uncertainty surrounding the nature of the aid instrument meant that Italy itself had no clear view of which projects needed to be notified individually (43) and which projects had to be included in the ex post list of cases that ought to have been notified.. |

| (279) | As regards the incentive effect, the Commission would note, first of all, that point 8.2 of the 1986 Framework required only that the aid should encourage additional effort in the field of R & D or enable the recipients to respond to exceptional conditions for which their own resources were too limited. In point 6 of the 1996 Framework, the incentive effect was to be verified on the basis of quantifiable factors, or other relevant factors indicated by the Member State, showing that the same R & D project would not have taken place without the aid, or that it would have been less ambitious, or that it would not have been carried out at the same pace. |

| (280) | The Commission has no reason to doubt the incentive effect of the aid under assessment. The aid allowed the recipients to engage in R & D activities additional to their normal research, and to undertake R & D projects they would not have been able to undertake alone. Furthermore, consistently with its assessment of similar projects in the aeronautical industry, the Commission finds that the aid to the projects under assessment allowed the recipients to engage in risky projects which they would not have been able to finance alone. Finally, the Commission notes that most of the projects were international projects that required additional collaborative efforts. |

a)   A109 D/E/F project carried out by Agusta

| (282) | The project concerned a helicopter, and was carried out by Agusta; it consisted in the development of different versions of the A109, adapting it to different engines in order to satisfy the most stringent criteria in terms of security, flight performance and environmental impact. The D, E and F versions corresponded to engines provided by Allison, Pratt & Whitney and Turbomeca. The D and E versions, according to Italy, were never developed. |

| (286) | The sequence of events would seem to indicate that the aid for the R & D project carried out in the period 1996-1998 enabled Agusta to introduce new technologies, with a time horizon of more than 30 months. The aid consequently had an incentive effect on Agusta. |

| (287) | The eligible investment (49) was ITL 69 790 million (50). The amount of aid in the form of interest forgone by the State was ITL 24 450 million. Thus, the initial aid intensity was 35,03 %, as compared with a theoretical maximum intensity of 31 % allowed by the 1996 Framework. The year in which the cumulative intensity reached the maximum 31 % allowed was 2004. |

| (288) | In 2007, therefore, Agusta has immediately to repay the outstanding principal (ITL 19 300 million) plus the ITL 7 811 million called for in the reimbursement schedule for the year. Interest has also to be paid from 2005 onwards, amounting on 31 December 2007 to ITL [...] million. |

The project concerned an Agusta helicopter. It was listed in the first initiating decision as project No 2. The Commission expressed doubts regarding the classification of R & D activities and the incentive effect.

| (291) | According to Italy, the project, carried out in the period 1999-2001, aimed at developing an entirely new helicopter, to enter the market after 2009. The helicopter would be in the range between 3 and 3,5 tonnes, and would also be used for developments in the military market. |

| (292) | Italy was able to demonstrate that the A109 X was a project totally different from the A109 D/E/F, A109 Power and A119 Koala. The main technological differences related to the five-blade rotor, the tail rotor, and the transmission using face gears. |

| (293) | On the incentive effect, Italy was able to show that the A109 X was a new project, which would not be finalised before 2009. The aid thus enabled Agusta to engage in R & D activities which were very distant from the market and were very risky from a technological point of view. |

| (294) | Eligible investment by the company was worth ITL 67 144 million. Aid received in the form of interest forgone was ITL 13 902 million, giving an intensity of 20,70 %, which is below the maximum initial intensity of 33 % allowable under the 1996 Framework. |

| (295) | The reimbursement schedule has nevertheless been adjusted to take account of the fact that the aid was disbursed in a manner different from what was foreseen, and the fact that the loan was smaller. Reimbursements for this project will follow the adjusted schedule until 2018. |

The information available today indicates that the eligible investment amounted to ITL 60 722 million, and that the initial maximum intensity was 43 %.

| (308) | However, there have been numerous delays in the reimbursement, as the Italian authorities themselves have acknowledged. The intensity of 43 % allowable under the 1986 Framework was reached as long ago as 1996. As the maximum intensity has been reached, Aermacchi must immediately repay the outstanding balance, which is ITL 34 019 million. Compound interest has also to be paid on the sums owed by Aermacchi from 1996, amounting to a total of ITL [...] million on 31 December 2007. |

e)   DO328 Extended Capacity project carried out by Aermacchi

| (310) | The project was to be carried out by Aermacchi, and concerned the development of an extended version of the DO328 regional jet developed by Dornier. The extended version would have allowed the transport of 40 to 50 passengers. The project does not seem to have been finalised, not least because Dornier, or Dornier-Fairchild as it later became, went into liquidation. The project was carried out in the period from 1995 to 1997. |

| (313) | On the incentive effect, the Italian authorities demonstrated that the funding for this project (together with the other project, DO328 Panels) allowed a substantial increase in the level of R & D spending by Aermacchi. In the period from 1993 to 1999 (covered by the two projects) the costs for the two DO328 projects amounted to [...] % of Aermacchis total R & D expenditures. Italy also argued that owing to its military specialisation, Aermacchi was not used to working on civilian projects, and had to adapt substantially, making additional investments. |

The eligible investment was ITL 35 674 million. On the basis of the R & D activities carried out, the maximum intensity allowable under the 1986 Framework was 32,5 %.

| (364) | However, from the outset the soft loan provided for an intensity higher than this maximum. From the point where the cumulative intensity reached the permissible maximum, therefore, the outstanding principal has to be reimbursed, and interest has to be charged. In this case the initial intensity was reached in 2005. The outstanding balance to be reimbursed immediately by Avio is ITL 40 939 million (ITL 4 688 million due for 2007 plus the outstanding ITL 36 251 million). On 31 December 2007 the interest immediately payable by Avio totalled ITL [...] million. |

14.6.   Terms of reimbursement

| (382) | As indicated, for most of the projects that Italy failed to notify it has been necessary to adjust the reimbursement schedules. In many cases, the outstanding loan has to be repaid immediately. In some of these cases the recipients have to pay interest, calculated from the year when the maximum allowable intensity was reached. In other cases, the reimbursement of the outstanding debt will be advanced ahead of the schedule originally set out in the granting decisions. |

The reimbursement schedule for each of the abovementioned projects has been arrived at jointly by the Commission and the Italian authorities. In their letter of 31 July 2007 the Italian authorities undertook to ensure that the schedules for the reimbursement of the projects would be adhered to.

| (384) | Where it is indicated that the recipients must reimburse immediately, this should be understood to mean within a period of two months. That period for repayment is justified by the fact that some components of the aid may have become partially incompatible because the intensity of the aid provided was higher than the maximum intensity allowable (i.e. either the intensity allowed under the R & D frameworks or the intensity set at the time the aid was granted) (54). Compound interest is to be charged from the year in which the maximum intensity was reached, in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 794/2004 of 21 April 2004 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Article 93 of the EC Treaty (55). |

| (391) | It follows that a state has an obligation to respect the primacy of Community law, and the exclusive power of the Commission to determine the compatibility or otherwise of state aid. A national decision concerning aid (be it a Decree-law or a court judgment) cannot replace the procedure laid down for the valid granting of aid, which is concluded only when the Commission grants its authorisation. |

14.7.   Conclusion of the assessment of the individual projects

| (392) | As described in paragraphs 0-0, the methodology adopted ensures that the aid granted to a project does not exceed maximum aid intensity allowed by the applicable R & D frameworks. When assessing aid to large R & D projects, the intensity of the aid — its proportionality — is one of the main factors the Commission takes into account. |

As described in paragraphs 0-0, the methodology adopted ensures that the aid granted to a project does not exceed maximum aid intensity allowed by the applicable R & D frameworks. When assessing aid to large R & D projects, the intensity of the aid — its proportionality — is one of the main factors the Commission takes into account.

| (393) | The Commission has also verified whether the initial maximum intensity was adhered to. If a soft loan, because of the way it is disbursed or reimbursed, reaches an aid intensity above the level set at the moment of granting, the aid beyond that initial intensity has to be considered new aid. Since this new aid is in all likelihood granted after the project has been terminated, and in any event only as a consequence of late payment, it has no incentive effect on the recipient. Thus it is not compatible under any of the R & D frameworks. If the reimbursement schedules are adjusted to ensure that the maximum allowable intensity is adhered to, then the aid for these projects can be considered compatible. |

| (394) | The Commission further notes that it is a regular feature of the aeronautical industry that projects have a long duration, and that reimbursements take place over periods that can even exceed fifteen years, bearing in mind among other things that projects often show a return only in the long term. In the present case, aid payments have often been spread over several years, with reimbursement starting only after the end of the last payment and lasting more than ten years. Overall the average duration of the projects, calculated from the beginning until final reimbursement, is around eighteen years. |

The Commission further notes that it is a regular feature of the aeronautical industry that projects have a long duration, and that reimbursements take place over periods that can even exceed fifteen years, bearing in mind among other things that projects often show a return only in the long term. In the present case, aid payments have often been spread over several years, with reimbursement starting only after the end of the last payment and lasting more than ten years. Overall the average duration of the projects, calculated from the beginning until final reimbursement, is around eighteen years.

| (395) | For the 17 projects referred to above, the Commission can conclude that the aid intensity corrected in accordance with the methodology adopted satisfies the requirements of the successive R & D frameworks. |

15.   THE TWO HELICOPTERS DESCRIBED AS MILITARY HELICOPTERS

| (399) | As Italy explained in its reply of October 2005, the scheme has also been used to fund military R & D. In the first initiating decision it was accepted that one project was to be considered military, and thus fell within the scope of Article 296 of the Treaty. |

It reserves the right to put further questions to Italy in order to clarify certain aspects of the projects before taking a final decision. The two projects are consequently outside the scope of the present decision, and will be the subject of a separate decision. |

| (408) | In any event, however, the fact that an item of equipment is military in its nature and purpose is not by itself sufficient for an exemption from the Community rules on the basis of Article 296 of the EC Treaty. The measure must also be necessary for the protection of the essential interests of a Member States security. According to the case-law of the Court of Justice, Article 296 must be interpreted strictly, and confined to exceptional, clearly defined cases. Moreover, the burden of proving that the tests for exemption are satisfied rests on the Member State. |

According to annexes to several annual reports to Parliament on the application of the Law, the title of the order was ‘General criteria for the mechanisms and schedule for the granting of funding under Article 3 of Law No 808 of 24 December 1985 and conditions and manner of repayment’ (Criteri generali per modalità e tempi di erogazione, condizioni e modo di restituzione dei finanziamenti ex art. 3 della legge 808 del 24 dicembre 1985).

(39)  See for instance point 4.7: ‘Individual grants of aid under an R & D scheme that has been authorized by the Commission do not, in principle, need to be notified. However, in order to allow the Commission to assess significant amounts of aid under approved schemes and the compatibility of such aid with the common market, the Commission requires prior notification of any individual research project costing more than ECU 25 million and for which it is proposed to provide aid with a gross grant equivalent of more than ECU 5 million. This new notification rule must be regarded as an appropriate measure within the meaning of Article 93(1) of the EC Treaty. Its substance was examined by the representatives of the Member States at a multilateral meeting.’

39

(40)  The Italian authorities have indicated that they have no intention of abandoning their claims on the recipients. However, the number of cases in which letters were sent asking for reimbursement, but no further action was taken, while new aid was granted to the same recipients for new projects, suggests that in some cases at least recipients believed that the aid they had received was not to be reimbursed.

40

(41)  Being the 25 % or 50 % intensity plus bonuses for precompetitive development and industrial research provided for in the R & D Frameworks.

41

(42)  The Commission has adopted a similar approach in two cases concerning R & D aid to the aeronautical sector, C27/06 and C 28/06.

42

(43)  It should be noted, though, that there is no trace in the history of the file of any intention on the part of the Italian authorities to notify any project individually, whatever the size of the project or the amount of the aid.

43

(44)  It excluded those whose military character was evident, either because they had been assessed in the course of the proceedings or because the public information available left their nature in no doubt.

(45)  See letter dated 5.5.2006.

45

(46)  Irrespective of whether or not it should be attributed to the Court of Auditors.
