1.   
On 8 November 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:






—


Czech Media Invest (‘CMI’, Czech Republic),

Hachette Filipacchi Associés, Lagardère Publicité, and Lagardère Digital France (France), belonging to the Lagardère Group.




CMI acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control of the whole of Hachette Filipacchi Associés, Lagardère Publicité, and Lagardère Digital.
The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.


2.   
The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for CMI: (i) the publishing of press titles and their related editorial websites, radio broadcasting; and (ii) the sale of advertising spaces in such media,
—   for Hachette Filipacchi Associés, Lagardère Publicité, and Lagardère Digital France: (i) publishing of magazines titles and their related editorial websites; and (ii) the sale of advertising spaces in such media.


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.

Language of the case: Danish

Referring court

Vestre Landsret

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Skatteministeriet

Defendant: Baby Dan A/S

Operative part of the judgment







1.


The Combined Nomenclature listed in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff, in the versions resulting, successively, from Commission Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007 of 20 September 2007, and from Commission Regulation (EC) No 1031/2008 of 19 September 2008, must be interpreted as meaning that an article, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, which allows a movable child safety gate to be mounted to a wall or a door frame, does not constitute part of those gates and must be classified under subheading 7318 15 90 of the Combined Nomenclature.










2.


Examination of the fourth question referred has not revealed any factors of such a kind as to affect the validity of Council Regulation (EC) No 91/2009 of 26 January 2009 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain iron or steel fasteners originating in the People’s Republic of China.
