Question referred

On a proper construction of Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 341/2007, (1) is there an unlawful transfer of licences for the importation at a preferential rate of duty of garlic of Chinese origin under the GATT quota, where the holder of those licences, following payment of the duty due, places the garlic in question on the market by means of a transfer to another trader who holds import licences and from whom it had — prior to the importation — acquired the garlic concerned?

(2)


According to the information received by the Commission, catches of the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of or registered in the Member State referred to therein have exhausted the quota allocated for 2013.












(3)


It is therefore necessary to prohibit fishing activities for that stock,

Prior notification of a concentration
(Case COMP/M.6893 — Carl Zeiss/Carl Zeiss Vision)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
2013/C 89/08






1.


On 19 March 2013, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking Carl Zeiss AG (Germany), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung, acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Carl Zeiss Vision Holding GmbH (Germany) by way of purchase of shares. Prior to the proposed concentration, Carl Zeiss AG already held joint control over Carl Zeiss Vision together with EQT III Fund.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:






—


Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung owns controlling shareholdings in Carl Zeiss AG and Schott AG. Carl Zeiss AG is active in the optical and opto-electronic industries, offering products and services for medical technologies, for the semiconductor, automotive and engineering industries as well as for optical consumer goods. Schott AG develops and manufactures specialty materials, components and systems for the household appliances, pharmaceutical, solar energy, electronics, optics and automotive industries,










—


Carl Zeiss Vision Holding GmbH’s group companies design, manufacture and distribute a broad range of ophthalmic lenses, production systems for eyeglass lens production, ophthalmic diagnostic systems and viewing aids.














3.


On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the EC Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the EC Merger Regulation (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.










4.


The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (+32 22964301), by email to COMP-MERGER-REGISTRY@ec.europa.eu or by post, under reference number COMP/M.6893 — Carl Zeiss/Carl Zeiss Vision, to the following address:
