Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.9418 — Temasek/RRJ Masterfund III/Gategroup)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2019/C 257/04)

1.   
On 24 July 2019, 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:






—


Esta Investments Pte.Ltd, controlled by Temasek International Pte. (‘Temasek’) (Singapore),










—


RRJ Masterfund III, belonging to the group of RRJ Capital (Hong Kong),










—


gategroup Holding AG (‘Gategroup’) (Switzerland), currently solely controlled by RRJ Capital.




Temasek and RRJ Masterfund III acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) and 3(4) of the Merger Regulation joint control of Gategroup.
The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.


2.   
The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Temasek: an investment company headquartered in Singapore. It owns a majority shareholding in Singapore Airlines, which operates passenger flights to/from certain EEA airports where Gategroup is active, so the Transaction gives rise to a small number of vertical relationships at those airports,
—   for RRJ Masterfund III: an investment firm based in Hong Kong and Singapore. It undertakes private equity investments in Asia, and primarily focuses on growth capital and state-owned enterprise investments,
—   for Gategroup: provides in-flight catering, retail on-board services, and other related services in around 60 countries, including in the EEA.


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.



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:
M.9418 — Temasek/RRJ Masterfund III/Gategroup
Observations can be sent to the Commission by email, by fax, or by post. Please use the contact details below:

Action brought on 31 July 2019 — Sarantos and Others v Parliament and Commission
(Case T-547/19)
(2019/C 399/88)
Language of the case: Greek

Parties


Applicants: Archimandrite Sarantis Sarantos (Marousi, Greece) and six other applicants (represented by: C. Papasotiriou, lawyer)

Defendants: European Commission and European Parliament

Form of order sought

The applicants claim that the General Court should:






—


annul the regulation of the European Parliament and the Commission of the European Union of 20 June 2019 (2018/0104/COD, Lex 1939/PE-CONS 70/19) on strengthening the security of identity cards of Union citizens and of residence documents issued to Union citizens and their family members exercising their right of free movement; (1)











—


order the defendants to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicants rely on four pleas in law.






1.


First plea, alleging that the contested regulation adversely affects human dignity, private life and personal freedom, as well as the right to protection of personal data and to express consent for any processing of such data.










2.


Second plea, alleging that the contested regulation adversely affects the applicants’ religious conscience, in breach, inter alia, of Article 10(1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.










3.


Third plea, alleging that, by making electronic identity mandatory without citizens’ prior consent, the contested regulation infringes the applicants’ right to object on the particular aforementioned grounds of religious conscience, in breach of Article 10(2) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.










4.


Fourth plea, alleging that, by adversely affecting the applicants’ religious conscience, the contested regulation at the same time also adversely affects their human dignity since religious conscience is a fundamental expression thereof, in breach of Article 1 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.






(1)  Regulation (EU) 2019/1157 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on strengthening the security of identity cards of Union citizens and of residence documents issued to Union citizens and their family members exercising their right of free movement (OJ 2019 L 188, p. 67).
