(Tekst mający znaczenie dla EOG)

(2018/C 27/03)

W dniu 26 września 2017 r.

Obecna decyzja jest oparta na podstawie art. 6 ust. 1 lit. c) rozporządzenia Rady (WE) nr 139/2004 (1).

Komisja zaprasza zainteresowane strony trzecie do przedłożenia jej ewentualnych uwag o planowanej koncentracji.

Spostrzeżenia te muszą dotrzeć do Komisji nie później niż w ciągu 15 dni od daty niniejszej publikacji, aby mogły zostać w pełni wzięte po uwagę podczas procedury.

W dniu 25 września 2017 r. do kancelarii Trybunału EFTA wpłynął wniosek, wystosowany dnia 25 września 2017 r. przez Oslo tingrett (sąd rejonowy w Oslo), o wydanie w sprawie Henrik Kristoffersen przeciwko Norweskiemu Związkowi Narciarskiemu opinii doradczej dotyczącej następujących kwestii:

| 1. | Które kryteria prawne należy w szczególności podkreślić podczas oceny, czy system uprzedniej kontroli i wydawania zgody na zawarcie indywidualnych umów sponsorskich tego rodzaju przez krajowy związek sportowy – zanim związek przeniesie prawo do wykorzystania danego oznakowania – zostanie uznany za ograniczenie swobody świadczenia usług przez sportowca na mocy art. 36 Porozumienia EOG albo dyrektywy 2006/123/WE (dyrektywa usługowa)?






  a) | W jakim zakresie stosuje się ocenę ograniczeń ram prawnych dotyczących sportu, która została wcześniej opisana przez Trybunał Sprawiedliwości Unii Europejskiej między innymi w sprawie C-51/96? Czy art. 16 dyrektywy usługowej lub inne przepisy tej dyrektywy pociągają za sobą ocenę ograniczeń? |

| 2. | Które kryteria prawne należy w szczególności podkreślić podczas oceny, czy bezwzględna odmowa wydania zgody przez krajowy związek sportowy na zawarcie indywidualnych umów sponsorskich sportowców zawodowych należących do kadry narodowej na używanie takiego rodzaju oznakowania (aby prawa do tego oznakowania dalej należały do związku) zostanie uznana za ograniczenie swobody świadczenia usług przez sportowca na podstawie art. 36 Porozumienia EOG albo dyrektywy 2006/123/WE (dyrektywa usługowa)?






  a) | Jaki wpływ na ocenę będzie miał fakt, że krajowy związek sportowy zawarł już ważną umowę z głównym sponsorem kadry narodowej o świadczenie usług reklamowych polegających na umieszczeniu danego oznakowania na kaskach/nakryciach głowy? Czy ma to znaczenie przy ustaleniu, czy ograniczenie istnieje oraz, alternatywnie, czy istnieją obiektywne i dostateczne podstawy dla odmowy? |

O ile stwierdzono, że ograniczenie istnieje:

| 3. | Czy wspólne regulacje krajowego związku sportowego (system zezwoleń) dotyczące potencjalnego wykorzystania oznaczenia w indywidualnych umowach przez sportowców stanowi system zezwoleń w rozumieniu art. 4 pkt 6 dyrektywy 2006/123/WE (dyrektywa usługowa)?






  a) | Czy w takim przypadku system zezwoleń podlega art. 9 i 10 rozdziału III dotyczącego swobody przedsiębiorczości dla usługodawców, w przypadku obywatela Norwegii wybranego do kadry narodowej, który podejmuje się działalności zarobkowej związanej z uczestnictwem w kadrze, a podlegającej ramom prawnym narodowego związku sportowego? Czy też należy uznać, że system reguluje art. 16; alternatywnie, jakiej ocenie prawnej należy go poddać dla poprawnej klasyfikacji? |
