Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.7913 — Allianz/SPAR/FISCHAPARK)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2016/C 40/06)






1.


On 26 January 2016, the European Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertakings Allianz SE (‘Allianz’, Germany), belonging to the Allianz Group, and SPAR Holding AG (‘SPAR Holding’, Austria), belonging to the SPAR Austria Group, acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation joint control of the undertaking FISCHAPARK Shopping Center GmbH (‘FISCHAPARK’, Austria), and thereby of the existing FISCHAPARK shopping centre operating in Wiener Neustadt, Austria, by way of purchase of shares.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   Allianz: insurance and other financial services;
—   SPAR: retail of food and sports goods, real-estate and shopping centre activities in Austria and neighbouring countries;
—   FISCHAPARK: owning and operating a shopping centre in Wiener Neustadt, Austria










3.


On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the 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 Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (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 to it their observations on the proposed operation.

They can be sent to the Commission under reference M.7913 — Allianz/SPAR/FISCHAPARK by fax (+32 22964301), by email to COMP-MERGER-REGISTRY@ec.europa.eu or by post to the following address:

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Mohammad Khir Amayry

Defendant: Migrationsverket

Questions referred







1.


If an asylum seeker is not in detention at the time when the Member State responsible agrees to take charge of him but is detained at a later date — on the ground that only then is the assessment made that there is a significant risk that the person will abscond — may the time limit of six weeks in Article 28(3) of Regulation No 604/2013 (1) be calculated in such a situation from the day on which the person is detained or is it to be calculated from another time and if so, when?










2.


Does Article 28 of the regulation preclude, in a situation where an asylum seeker is not in detention at the time when the Member State responsible agrees to take charge of him, the application of national rules which, in Sweden, mean that an alien may not be kept in detention pending implementation [of a transfer] for longer than two months, if there are no serious reasons for detaining him for a longer period, and if there are such serious reasons, the alien may be kept in detention for a maximum of three months or, if it is probable that implementation will take longer due to a lack of cooperation from the alien or it takes time to obtain the necessary documents, a maximum of twelve months?










3.


If an implementation procedure is recommenced when an appeal or a review no longer has suspensive effect (c.f. Article 27(3)), does a new time limit of six weeks for implementation of the transfer start to run or is there a deduction to be made, for example, of the number of days the person has already spent in detention after the Member State responsible agreed to take charge of him or take him back?










4.


Is it of any importance whether the asylum seeker who appealed against a transfer decision has not himself applied for the implementation of the transfer decision to be suspended pending the result of the appeal (c.f. Article 27(3)(c) and (4))?
