2002 concerning a draft decision relating to Case COMP/M.2822 — ENBW/ENI/GVS

(2003/C 233/06)

(Text with EEA relevance)

1. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that the notified operation constitutes a concen-

tration within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation.

2. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that the notified operation has a Community

Dimension as defined in Article 1(2) of the Merger Regulation.

3. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that for the purposes of this case, the definition

of the relevant product market is ‘regional wholesale of gas’.

4. The Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission that for the purposes of this case, the relevant

geographic market is regional in scope.

5. A majority of the Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission's view that GVS holds a dominant

position on the wholesale gas market in Baden-Württemberg. A minority abstains.

6. A majority of the Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission's view that:

(a) as a result of down-stream vertical

integration, the proposed concentration strengthens GVS's

dominant position in the regional wholesale of gas in Baden-Württemberg;

(b) as a result of which future potential competition on the market will be eliminated to a significant

extent.

A minority disagrees.

7. According to the Commission, the commitments offered by the notifying parties address the fore-
closure effect it has identified as arising from the proposed transaction. The commitments, which
bring about much earlier freeing up of 100 % of customer requirements for supply and which account
for around 60 % of GVS total supply, allow competitors, such as Wingas, the chance to win customers
in the relevant market.

A majority of the Advisory Committee agrees with the Commission's view that the commitments are
necessary, appropriate and proportionate. A minority disagrees.

8. A majority of the Advisory Committee agrees that the concentration should be declared compatible

with the common market. A minority disagrees.

9. The Advisory Committee recommends the publication of its opinion in the Official Journal of the

European Union.

10. The Advisory Committee asks the Commission to take into account the remarks and comments made

by the Advisory Committee.
