Výzva k předložení připomínek podle čl. 1 odst. 2 části I protokolu 3 Dohody mezi státy ESVO o zřízení Kontrolního úřadu a Soudního dvora ke státní podpoře týkající se zřízení charterového fondu pro severní Norsko

2012/C 291/02

Rozhodnutím č. 246/12/KOL ze dne 27. června 2012 uvedeným v závazném znění na stránkách následujících za tímto shrnutím zahájil Kontrolní úřad ESVO (dále jen „Úřad“) řízení podle čl. 1 odst. 2 části I protokolu 3 Dohody mezi státy ESVO o zřízení Kontrolního úřadu a Soudního dvora. Norským orgánům byla pro informaci zaslána kopie tohoto rozhodnutí.

Kontrolní úřad ESVO tímto vyzývá státy ESVO, členské státy EU a zúčastněné strany, aby mu do jednoho měsíce od zveřejnění tohoto oznámení sdělily své případné připomínky k danému opatření, a to na adresu:

Připomínky budou sděleny norským orgánům. Strany podávající připomínky mohou písemně a s uvedením důvodů požádat o zachování důvěrnosti ohledně své totožnosti.

SHRNUTÍ

Postup

Norské orgány se v červnu 2011 obrátily na Úřad v souvislosti se svým plánem zřídit charterový fond pro severní Norsko (dále jen „režim“). Úřad se k němu vyjádřil ve fázi předběžného oznámení.

Formální oznámení režimu podle čl. 1 odst. 3 části I protokolu 3 učinily norské orgány dopisem ze dne 2. května 2012.

Posouzení opatření

Režim spočívá ve zřízení charterového fondu, z kterého se bude poskytovat podpora provozovatelům charterových letů do tří krajů v severním Norsku, jmenovitě do krajů Nordland, Troms a Finnmark. Fond bude financován z veřejných prostředků, které do něho budou vkládat uvedené kraje. Ty budou rovněž jeho vlastníky.

Cílem režimu je zvýšit využívání letišť v severním Norsku a přispět tak k hospodářskému rozvoji regionu. Zmíněné kraje na severu Norska patří k málo zalidněným oblastem s průměrnou hustotou zalidnění 4,2 obyvatele/km2. Vztahuje se na ně proto definice nejméně zalidněných regionů vymezená v kapitole o vnitrostátní regionální podpoře pokynů Úřadu pro státní podporu (dále jen „pokyny k regionální podpoře“) a předmětné kraje čelí vylidňování.

Do severního Norska bylo v minulosti provozováno několik málo tras, avšak bez úspěchu. Důvodem mohla být podle zástupců odvětví pravidla pro rušení charterových letů. Pozdní zrušení je velmi drahé a o tom, zda bude let zrušen, musí provozovatel rozhodnout několik měsíců před zahájením série charterových letů. Pokud se prodá málo letenek, provozovatelé lety raději zruší kvůli riziku prázdných sedadel, než by čekali a doufali, že let bude nakonec ziskový díky prodeji na poslední chvíli.

Režim se bude vztahovat na charterové lety na všechna letiště v severním Norsku bez ohledu na velikost letiště nebo letadla.

Budou jej moci využívat provozovatelé letů se sídlem v rámci nebo mimo rámec severního Norska, jakož i v rámci nebo mimo rámec EHP.

Podpora bude mít formu platby až do výše 25 % celkových nákladů na charter a bude omezena pouze na tento typ nákladů. Bude se z charterového fondu provozovatelům vyplácet zpětně po vypravení letů do severního Norska. Provozovatelé budou muset stanovit hranici rentability na 80 % obsazenost, což je v odvětví normou. Maximální podpora (25 %) se bude poskytovat v případě 60 % či nižší obsazenosti. Intenzita podpory se bude postupně snižovat až na 0 % v případech, kdy obsazenost dosáhne průměru 80 %.

Úřad má pochybnosti, zda lze režim poskytující provozní podporu příjemcům, kteří mohou být usazeni mimo nejméně zalidněné regiony, považovat za slučitelný s pokyny k regionální podpoře.

Úřad chápe, že nepřímý ekonomický dopad, jenž může mít režim na předmětné tři kraje, může přispět k tomu, aby se v regionu stabilizovalo osídlení, není však přesvědčen, že tohoto cíle by se nemohlo dosáhnout jinak než poskytováním provozní podpory, která je nejrušivějším nástrojem. Úřad má tudíž pochybnosti, zda je vhodné poskytovat přímou podporu provozovatelům letů, kteří budou mít pravděpodobně sídlo mimo podporovaný region.

Závěr

S ohledem na výše uvedené se Úřad rozhodl zahájit formální vyšetřovací řízení podle čl. 6 odst. 1 části II protokolu 3 Dohody o EHP. Zúčastněné strany mohou předložit své připomínky během jednoho měsíce od zveřejnění tohoto rozhodnutí v Úředním věstníku Evropské unie.

2.   The Scheme

2.1.   
  The objective and the scope of the Scheme

| (5) | The Scheme entails the establishment of a Charter Fund (‘the Charter Fund’) which will grant aid to tour operators flying air charter (1) to three counties in Northern Norway, Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. |

The objective of the Scheme is to increase the use of the airports in Northern Norway and thereby to contribute to the economic development in the region.

| (7) | The northern counties are low density population areas with an average population density of 4,2 inhabitants per km2 thereby falling within the definition of least populated regions as set out by the chapter of the Authority’s State Aid Guidelines on national regional aid (‘the Regional Aid Guidelines’) (2). Moreover, they face depopulation (3). |

| (8) | The Charter Fund will be a non-profit company acting as a vehicle for granting aid. The fund will be capitalised with public money granted by the counties of Nordland, Troms and Finnmark and will be owned by the counties. |

The Charter Fund will be a non-profit company acting as a vehicle for granting aid. The fund will be capitalised with public money granted by the counties of Nordland, Troms and Finnmark and will be owned by the counties.

| (9) | The Scheme will cover charter flights to all airports in Northern Norway regardless of the size of the airplanes and the airports. The Norwegian authorities have however indicated that they expect only large airplanes to be concerned as they are the only ones suitable for charter flights. The following airports can currently handle large planes: Tromsø, Bodø, Harstad Narvik/Evenes, Alta, Kirkenes, Høybuktmoen, Bardufoss, Svalbard (4), Banak, Andøya (‘the Northern lights airports’). All these airports have excess capacity. |

All these airports have excess capacity.

| (10) | A few routes have been operated to Northern Norway in the past but without success (5). According to the industry, a reason for this could be the cancellation rules applying to air charters. Cancellation at a late stage is very expensive. The deadline for deciding whether to cancel or not is several months before the operation of the air charter series. If the sale of tickets until that date is limited, the series is often cancelled. The tour operator would otherwise risk having to pay a cancellation fee or bear the loss corresponding to the empty seats. Several charter series have been cancelled due to limited sales up until the cancellation deadline. The industry believes that if the risk is reduced, many of the flights would go ahead. Such flights could even be profitable. However, tour operators seem to prefer to cancel flights due to the risk of empty seats rather than to wait and hope that late sales will make the flight profitable. |

II.   ASSESSMENT

1.   The presence of State aid

| (27) | Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement reads as follows:
  ‘Save as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any aid granted by EC Member States, EFTA States or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain goods shall, in so far as it affects trade between contracting parties, be incompatible with the functioning of this Agreement.’ |

1.1.   
  Presence of State resources

| (28) | The aid measure must be granted by the State or through State resources. |
| --- | --- |

(28)

The aid measure must be granted by the State or through State resources.

(31)

Firstly, the aid measure must confer on the beneficiaries advantages that relieve them of charges that are normally borne from their budget.

| (32) | The tour operators benefiting from the Scheme will receive a direct grant which will reduce the amount they have lost on a given charter series. Similarly, the service providers located in the three northern counties gaining from an increase in the tourist population will also benefit indirectly from the Scheme. |

The Authority therefore considers that the measure is indeed selective.

1.3.   
  Distortion of competition and effect on trade between contracting parties

| (36) | The aid measure must distort or threaten to distort competition and affect trade between the contracting parties to the EEA Agreement. |
| --- | --- |

(36)

The aid measure must distort or threaten to distort competition and affect trade between the contracting parties to the EEA Agreement.

| (37) | Aid is regarded as distorting competition if it is granted to an undertaking which carries out activities in competition with others. The aid beneficiaries of the Scheme are tour operators. Tour operators are active in a sector characterised by strong competition. Therefore, any aid granted under the Scheme may be regarded as distorting competition. |

Aid is regarded as distorting competition if it is granted to an undertaking which carries out activities in competition with others. The aid beneficiaries of the Scheme are tour operators. Tour operators are active in a sector characterised by strong competition. Therefore, any aid granted under the Scheme may be regarded as distorting competition.

| (38) | Furthermore, State aid to specific undertakings is regarded as affecting trade between the contracting parties if the recipient firm carries out an economic activity involving trade between the contracting parties. The State funding affects trade between contracting parties as it will be granted to operators offering holiday packages in different countries, which by definition is a cross-border activity. |

2.   Procedural requirements

| (40) | The Regional Aid Guidelines (paragraph 81) provide that ‘operating aid schemes are not covered by the regional aid maps, and are assessed on a case-by-case basis on the basis of a notification by the EFTA State concerned pursuant to Article 1(3) in Part I of Protocol 3 to the Surveillance and Court Agreement’. |

3.   Compatibility of the aid

| (44) | The Regional Aid Guidelines (paragraph 1) provide: ‘on the basis of Article 61(3)(a) and Article 61(3)(c) of the EEA Agreement, State aid granted to promote the economic development of certain disadvantaged areas within the EEA may be considered to be compatible with the functioning of the EEA Agreement. This kind of State aid is known as national regional aid. National regional aid consists of aid for investment granted to large companies, or in certain limited circumstances, operating aid, which in both cases are targeted on specific regions in order to redress regional disparities’.

  ‘(in derogation from the previous paragraph,) operating aid which is not both progressively reduced and limited in time may only be authorised in the least populated regions, in so far as it is intended to prevent or reduce the continuing depopulation of these regions (10). The least populated regions represent or belong to regions at NUTS-II level for Norway and NUTS IV level for Iceland with a population density of 8 inhabitants per km2 or less and extend to adjacent and contiguous smaller areas meeting the same population density criterion’. |

3.1.   
  The aid may only be authorised in the least populated regions

3.1.1.   The three northern counties belong to the least populated regions

| (47) | As provided by paragraph 69 of the Regional Aid Guidelines, the operating aid measure which is not progressively reduced and limited in time may only be granted in the least populated regions. The least populated regions are those regions with less than 8 inhabitants per km2

However, the aid as such will be paid to tour operators which may be situated anywhere in the world. The direct beneficiary of the aid will therefore not necessarily be located in the least populated region.

| (50) | During the pre-notification phase, the Authority expressed some concerns regarding the fact that the aid beneficiaries would not necessarily be located in the least populated regions. The companies located in the northern counties involved in the package sold by the tour operator would benefit from the increase in the tourist population but only in an indirect manner. |

| (52) | The Norwegian authorities have argued that if indeed the direct beneficiaries of the aid will be tour operators who may be located outside the three northern counties, there will be many indirect beneficiaries of the Scheme in the region. They therefore consider that as the link between the direct beneficiaries of the aid — the tour operators — and the indirect beneficiaries — hotels, restaurants, etc. — is sufficiently strong, the Scheme may be held to be compatible with the EEA Agreement. |

(Emphasis added.)

| (55) | The Authority therefore considers that the way the Regional Aid Guidelines were drafted indicates that the intention was that operating aid could only be granted in the regions concerned, here in the three northern counties. The Authority questions whether the fact that the undertakings in the regions concerned are only indirectly targeted by the Scheme constitutes a sufficiently strong link for the regional development of the area. |

The Norwegian authorities have explained that Northern Norway — which is one of Europe’s least populated areas — has always been extremely sparsely populated and has suffered from depopulation for decades. The Norwegian authorities therefore consider that it is necessary to take further measures to stabilise the settlement and to prevent further depopulation. They recognise that the establishment of the Charter Fund on its own will not solve the issue of depopulation but as a part of a general policy will increase the economic activity in the region and maintain and create new jobs. Employment opportunities and expected income are the most decisive factors influencing a person’s choice of residence. |

| (66) | The Norwegian authorities have indicated that the Scheme has been designed so that only the necessary level of aid is granted. The aid will take the form of a payment of up to 25 % of the total charter costs which must be specified in accordance with generally accepted project accounting principles. If the planes operated under a charter series have somewhere between 60 % and 80 % cabin factor, the Charter Fund will reimburse the tour operator’s losses connected to the charter series. Maximum support (25 %) from the Charter Fund will be given at cabin factors of 60 % or less. The aid intensity will gradually decrease to zero when cabin factors reach an average of 80 %. At 80 % cabin factor, the tour operator has passed the break-even point and will therefore generate a profit (see above, Part I, Section 2.3). |

The Norwegian authorities have furthermore indicated that the Scheme will expire after 10 years of operation but that the Scheme will be re-notified if necessary due to the adoption by the Authority of new guidelines.

| (70) | The Authority refers to paragraph 71 of the currently applicable Regional Aid Guidelines which provide: ‘In all cases, the need for and level of operating aid should be regularly re-examined to ensure its long-term relevance to the region concerned. The Authority will therefore only approve aid schemes for the duration of these guidelines’. (Emphasis added.) The Regional Aid Guidelines are applicable until 31 December 2012. |

4.   Conclusion

| (72) | Based on the information submitted by the Norwegian authorities, the Authority considers that all the conditions set out in Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement are met and that consequently the notified Scheme entails State aid. The Authority has doubts that the Scheme complies with Article 61(3) of the EEA Agreement, read in conjunction with the requirements laid down in the Authority’s Chapter of the State Aid Guidelines on national regional aid. The Authority, therefore, doubts that the above measures are compatible with the functioning of the EEA Agreement. |

(6)  Empty legs are flights operated in order to position an aircraft at the start and at the end of a charter series. The return flight on the first departure will be empty and the flight to pick up the last passengers will also be empty. Empty legs represent a considerable cost for short charter series.

Norsko, zastoupený Ministerstvem zdravotnictví a pečovatelských služeb – ŽÁDOST Soudu podle článku 34 Dohody mezi státy ESVO o zřízení Kontrolního úřadu a Soudního dvora podaná soudem Oslo tingrett (obvodní soud v Oslu), týkající se výkladu článků 11 a 13 Dohody o Evropském hospodářském prostoru (EHP), zejména otázky, zda pravidlo, které zakazuje viditelné vystavení tabákových výrobků v maloobchodních prodejnách, jako je např. toto ustanovení podle norského práva, představuje protiprávní omezení podle článku 11 Dohody o EHP, a pokud se o takové omezení jedná, jaká jsou kritéria rozhodující pro určení, zda zákaz vystavení je přiměřený pro účely článku 13 Dohody o EHP, Soud ve složení Carl Baudenbacher, předseda, Thorgeir Örlygsson (soudce-zpravodaj) a Per Christiansen, soudci, vynesl dne 12. září 2011 rozsudek, jehož výroková část zní:

| 1) | Zákaz viditelného vystavení tabákových výrobků, které ukládají vnitrostátní právní předpisy některého státu EHP, jako je např. zákaz v tomto případě, představuje opatření s rovnocenným účinkem jako množstevní omezení dovozu ve smyslu článku 11 Dohody o EHP, pokud se ve skutečnosti zákaz týká marketingu výrobků dovážených z jiných států EHP větší měrou než marketingu dovezených produktů, které byly donedávna vyráběny v Norsku. |
