III. Comments submitted by Italy

(16) During the formal

investigation procedure, the Italian
authorities amended their original notification with
regard to the areas proposed for the Article 87(3)(c)
derogation in line with the outcome of discussions
which had enabled the Commission to approve the
Italian map for Objective 2 of the Structural Funds.

for

(17) As provided for in the original notification, the Italian
the Article 87(3)(c)
authorities have proposed,
derogation, some areas on the basis of a particular
methodology (point 3.10.3 of the guidelines), others as
areas eligible under Objective 2 of the Structural Funds
(point 3.10.5) and yet others as areas eligible under
Objective 1 (phasing-out) of the Structural Funds (also
point 3.10.5).

(18) As regards the first group, the Italian authorities have
proposed a particular methodology, one statistical unit
and quantitative indicators for determining the regions
eligible.

(19) As stated in the original notification, the statistical unit
applied is the employment area (sistema locale del lavoro).
The method used for demarcating the employment areas
is designed to produce a breakdown of Italian territory
that maximises the population flow between home and
place of work within a given geographical unit. It is
based on the results of the 1991 census. Italy has been
divided into 784 employment areas.

(20) As stated in the original notification, the indicators are

the following:

intensity ceilings are increased by 10 percentage points
gross for small firms and by six percentage points gross
for medium-sized firms (OJ L 107, 30.4.1996), with the
exception of the areas in Abruzzi and Molise, where a
bonus of 10 percentage points gross is proposed also
for medium-sized firms. The intensity ceilings also
represent cumulation ceilings applicable to total aid

regional schemes, irrespective of whether it comes from
local, regional, national or Community sources.

they satisfy the conditions laid down in point 3.10.2 of
the guidelines, namely:

(cid:151) their number, including both simple indicators and

combinations of indicators, is limited to three,

(cid:151) they are objective and relevant to the examination
of the socioeconomic circumstances of the regions,

(cid:151) they are based on statistical series covering the last
three years available or are derived from the last
survey carried out,

(cid:151) they are drawn up by reliable statistical sources.

(30) As regards the conformity of the proposed areas with
the conditions laid down in the guidelines, it should be
recalled that point 3.10.3 of the guidelines stipulates
that:

(a)

(cid:145)The regions must conform to NUTS level III or, in
justified circumstances, to a different homogeneous
geographical unit. Only one type of geographical
unit may be submitted by each Member State.(cid:146)

The Italian authorities have proposed an approach
based on employment areas. The method used for
determining those areas is designed to produce a
breakdown of
Italian territory that maximises the
population flow between home and place of work
within a given geographical unit and is based on the
results of the 1991 census. Italy has been divided
into 784 employment areas. These are economically
significant areas that form part of a single local job
market or ensure a strong correlation between home
and place of work. They are economically and
socially homogenous areas. They have been used
since 1987 as units of reference in national policies

All the areas proposed by Italy comply with the
third indent of point 3.10.3 of the guidelines.

(31) As regards the areas proposed under point 3.10.5 of the
guidelines, which establishes eligibility for the Structural
Funds as a criterion for eligibility for the regional aid
map, the following observations should be made:

Commission that the population ceiling should not
be used to select only areas with a high density of
firms without taking account of the population that
contributes to this productive activity and benefits
from wealth creation.

The Commission points out that one third of the areas

areas eligible under Objective 2, representing 7 % of the
Italian population, have not been proposed by the
Italian authorities for regional aid. While accepting their
proposal, the Commission would draw the attention of
the Italian authorities to the loss of effectiveness of
regional policy resulting from the dispersion between
the above two mechanisms for supporting regional
development.

(32) As regards the areas proposed as areas eligible for
Objective 1 (phasing out) and in accordance with point
3.10.5 of
the following observations
should be made:

eligible under Article 87(3)(c) (cid:145)which have both a higher

the Italian authorities by letter SG(98) D/12398 of 30
December 1998, which adjusts the national regional aid
the
coverage ceilings for the period 2000 to 2006,
employment areas proposed in the regions of Abruzzi
and Molise, with a proposed aid intensity of 20 % nge,
are not subject to the 10 % nge ceiling.

The Commission would point out that, since the aid
intensity for
the areas proposed in the regions of
Abruzzi and Molise is 20 % nge, and those two regions
qualified for Objective 1 in the previous programming
period, and since the aid intensity for the other areas
proposed is 8 %, both figures have been adjusted (cid:145)to
