Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.8186 — BC Partners/Keter and Jardin)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2016/C 339/12)






1.


On 8 September 2016, 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 BC Partners LLP (‘BC Partners’, the United Kingdom) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of parts of Keter Plastic Limited (‘KPL’, Israel) and Jardin International Holding BV (‘JIH’, Cyprus) by way of purchase of shares. The businesses that will be acquired as a result of the present transaction are referred to as the ‘Keter Business’ and the ‘Jardin Business’.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for BC Partners: private equity investment with a focus on the European and North American markets. BC Partners operate through the funds BCECIX and BC European Capital VIII,
—   for Keter Business: design, manufacture, marketing and selling of resin-based household consumer products, including outdoor furniture, outdoor storage, home organisation, DIY (hardware), gardening, pet care and children’s toys,
—   for Jardin Business: design, manufacture, marketing and selling of plastic garden furniture, storage solutions, kitchenware and household.










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 the 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 this Notice.










4.


The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.

Commission statement relating to Regulation (EU) 2016/1627 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 September 2016 on a multiannual recovery plan for bluefin tuna in the eastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean, and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 302/2009 (1)

(2016/C 340/01)
The Commission expresses concern that the limited powers delegated to it by the co-legislators may hinder the timely implementation in EU law of measures taken by ICCAT in the future that revise or update the control scheme of this organisation.
The Commission therefore declares that it considers this Regulation to be without prejudice to any future position of the institution as regards the recourse to Articles 290 and 291 TFEU for the transposition of regional fisheries management organisation measures.
The Commission furthermore reserves the right to propose amendments to the Regulation increasing the number of measures which should be adopted by delegated or implementing acts in case the transposition through the ordinary legislative procedure leads to delays which would jeopardise the EU's ability to comply with its international obligations.
