WRITTEN QUESTION E-2213/97

by Jean-Pierre Bazin (UPE) to the Commission

(30 June 1997)

Subject: Harbour dues in EU ports › unfair competition

According  to  a  comparative  study  of  harbour  dues,  the  dues  charged  by  the  Belgian  port  of  Zeebrugge  are
considerably lower (approximately 50% on average) than the European average.

This difference can only be accounted for by the existence of massive state aid or local practices which are not in
line with the EU rules.

Can the Commission investigate these practices, which are damaging to ports in the Union, and, if necessary,
adopt all requisite measures to re-establish conditions more amenable to fair competition?

Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission

(12 September 1997)

The Commission does not normally monitor tariff practices nor does it aim to harmonize tariffs in the port sector.
However, in specific cases, such a matter may be examined in the context of individual complaints.

Low port tariffs do not necessarily mean that these particular ports benefit from state aid. Instead low tariff levels
can be due to other factors such as the ports’ commercial policy or efficient port management. Each situation has
to be examined individually in order to establish whether there is aid involved.
