Action brought on 29 December 2010 — European Commission v Republic of Slovenia
(Case C-627/10)
2011/C 103/23
Language of the case: Slovene

Parties


Applicant: European Commission (represented by: H. Stølvlbæk and D. Kukovec, Agents)

Defendant: Republic of Slovenia

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


declare that, with regard to implementation of the first railway package, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 6(3) of and Annex II to Council Directive 91/440/EEC, (1) as amended, Article 14(2) of Directive 2001/14/EC, (2) and Articles 6(2) to (5), 7(3), 8(1), 11 and 30(1) of Directive 2001/14/EC;










—


order the Republic of Slovenia to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

The Commission maintains that, because it is the infrastructure manager, which alone supplies railway transport services, that organises the running of the trains and is, therefore, included in the adoption of decisions concerning the allocation of train paths or in the allocation of infrastructure capacity, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to satisfy the requirements of Article 6(3) of, and Annex II to, Directive 91/440/EEC, as amended, or those of Article 14(2) of Directive 2001/14/EC.
By failing to ensure a mechanism of incentives to reduce the costs of providing infrastructure and the level of charges for access, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 6(2) to (5) of Directive 2001/14/EC.
The Commission considers, therefore, that by failing to provide a method of calculation that ensures that the charges imposed for the minimum access package and track access to service facilities are equal to the costs directly incurred as a result of operating the service, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 7(3) of Directive 2001/14/EC.
By failing to adopt a performance scheme encouraging railway undertakings and the infrastructure manager to minimise disruption and improve the performance of the railway network, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 11 of Directive 2001/14/EC.
By failing to make provision, in its domestic legislation, for ascertaining whether a particular sector of the market can bear ‘mark-ups’ in order to obtain full recovery of the manager’s costs, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 8(1) of Directive 2001/14/EC.
By failing to establish a regulatory body, independent in its decision-making of any manager of the railway infrastructure or any applicant, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 30(1) of Directive 2001/14/EC.

Questions referred







1.


Where a decision of a foreign court is accompanied by the certificate provided for in Article 54 of Regulation No 44/2001 (1), but the defendant nevertheless objects on the ground that he was not served with notice of the action brought in the Member State of origin, is a court in the Member State where enforcement is sought competent, when considering a ground for withholding recognition provided for in Article 34(2) of Regulation No 44/2001, to examine for itself the conformity with the evidence of the information contained in the certificate? Is such wide jurisdiction on the part of a court in the Member State in which enforcement is sought compatible with the principle of mutual trust in the administration of justice set out in recitals 16 and 17 to Regulation No 44/2001?










2.


Is a decision given in default of appearance, which disposes of the substance of a dispute without examining either the subject-matter of the claim or the grounds on which it is based and sets out no reasoning as to the substantive basis of the claim, compatible with Article 47 of the Charter and does it not infringe the defendant’s right to a fair hearing, laid down by the provision?
