WRITTEN QUESTION No. 982/98 by Luis CAMPOY ZUECO to the Commission. State aids  


Official Journal C 402 , 22/12/1998 P. 0052 





WRITTEN QUESTION P-0982/98by Luis Campoy Zueco (PPE) to the Commission(23 March 1998)Subject: State aidsWhat state aids does the Commission intend to authorize for SMEs and large undertakings which will, after the year 2000, no longer be located in regions covered by Objectives 1, 2 or 5b?Answer given by Mr Van Miert on behalf of the Commission(16 April 1998)In assessing whether regional state aid is compatible with the common market, the Commission determines the regions in which such aid can be compatible under the derogation provided for in Article 92(3)(a) of the EC Treaty and the regions in which such aid can be compatible under the derogation provided for in Article 92(3)(c) of the EC Treaty. Outside those regions, regional state aid cannot be compatible. Against this, horizontal aid (for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), environmental protection, research and employment) can be deemed compatible in so far as they comply with the relevant guidelines, irrespective of the region in which the recipient firm is located. State aid for large enterprises located in areas not covered from the year 2000 by Objective 1 or Objective 2 could be regarded as compatible, under certain conditions, provided that those areas qualified for the derogation under Article 92(3)(a) or (c).
