Parties to the main proceedings


Appellant (applicant at first instance): A-PACK CZ, s.r.o.

Questions referred







1.


Can Article 90(2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (1) of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax be interpreted, having regard to the principle of fiscal neutrality and the principle of proportionality, in such a way that it allows Member States by way of derogation to lay down conditions which for certain cases exclude a reduction of the taxable amount in the event of total or partial non-payment of the price?










2.


If the answer to Question 1 is in the affirmative, is national legislation contrary to the purpose of Article 90 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax if it does not allow payers of value added tax to make a correction to the amount of tax where tax became chargeable on a taxable supply to another taxpayer who paid for it only in part or not at all, and who subsequently ceased to be a value added tax payer?

Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.8796 — Crown/Signode)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2018/C 60/15)






1.


On 9 February 2018, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1).
This notification concerns the following undertakings:






—


Crown Holdings, Inc. (‘Crown’, United States),










—


Signode Industrial Group Holdings (Bermuda) Ltd (‘Signode’, United States).




Crown acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control over Signode. The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Crown: the design, manufacture and sale of packaging products for consumer goods,
—   for Signode: the supply of transit packaging consumables and related equipment.










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 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. The following reference should always be specified:
