Da priserne for lo-lo-transport normalt ikke angives pr. løbende meter, har Streamline Shipping beregnet sine priser pr. løbende meter med henblik på sammenligningen.
Since rates for lo-lo operations are not usually quoted per linear metre, Streamline Shipping has calculated its rates on a per linear metre basis in order to make the comparison.
Lo-lo-transport indebærer typisk, at enkelte læs, herunder løst gods eller paller, samles i større mængder, som ofte lastes i en container, der lastes på et fragtskib.
The lo-lo service typically involves grouping and consolidating individual loads including loose freight or pallets which are often reloaded into a container and loaded on to a cargo vessel.

Dvs. situationen fra den dato, hvor kontrakten om offentlig tjeneste af 2007 med CalMac trådte i kraft, bortset fra Gourock-Dunoon-ruten, hvor den relevante situation går tilbage til rutens start.
Meaning the situation from the date of entry into force of the 2007 public service contract with CalMac, except in the case of the Gourock-Dunoon route, for which the relevant situation dates back to the inception of the service.
Desuden skal kontrakten om offentlig tjeneste være indgået på et ikke-diskriminerende grundlag i henhold til forordningen om cabotagesejlads.
In addition, the public service contract must be concluded on a non-discriminatory basis according to the Maritime Cabotage Regulation.

I denne forbindelse henvises i statsstøttereglerne for lufttransportsektoren allerede specifikt til principperne i rammebestemmelserne om tjenesteydelser af almindelig økonomisk interesse (se punkt 67 og fodnote 2 i Kommissionens meddelelse af 9.12.2005»EF-retningslinjer for finansiering af lufthavne og statslig startstøtte til luftfartsselskaber, som opererer fra regionale lufthavne« ( EUT C 312 af 9.12.2005, s. 1)).
In this context, State aid rules in the air transport sector already refer specifically to the principles of the SGEI Framework (see paragraph 67 and footnote 2 of the Commission Communication of 9 December 2005‘Community guidelines on financing of airports and start-up aid to airlines departing from regional airports’ ( OJ C 312, 9.12.2005, p. 1)).
I regnskabsåret 2007/2008 fik CalMac og NorthLink 2 udbetalt henholdsvis 45,3 og 30,0 mio. GBP i kompensation (jf. ovenfor, tabel 1 og 4).
The compensation paid to CalMac and NorthLink 2 for the 2007/2008 financial exercise was GBP 45,3 and GBP 30 million, respectively (see tables 1 and 4 above).
Jf. også i denne forbindelse betragtning 295-298 i denne beslutning.
See also in this context recitals 295 to 298 of this Decision.
Se betragtning 178-198, der indeholder en vurdering af foreneligheden med Altmark-kriterium 4.
See recitals 178-198 where compliance with Altmark criterion 4 is assessed.
Selv om denne betingelse ikke er opfyldt, anses udbuddet for at være tilstrækkeligt åbent og gennemsigt ifølge kriterierne i forordningen om cabotagesejlads.
Although that condition is not met, the tender is considered as sufficiently open and transparent, according to the criteria laid down in the Maritime Cabotage Regulation.
Hvis overkompensationen udgør 10 mio. GBP (et meget usandsynligt scenario uden fortilfælde) ville de 725000 GBP, som CalMac ville beholde, kun udgøre ca. 1,7 % af den årlige kompensation, som CalMac fik udbetalt i 2007/2008, og en langt lavere andel af de samlede indtægter.
By way of comparison, where over compensation amounts to GBP 10 million (a very unlikely and unprecedented scenario), the GBP 725000 CalMac would retain would represent only around 1,7 % of the annual compensation paid to CalMac in 2007/2008 and a much lower proportion of total revenues.

NorthLink 1 modtog tilskud på i alt 92,6 mio. GPB i de ca. fire år, hvor selskabet drev færgefart.
A total of GBP 92,6 million was granted to NorthLink 1 during the approximately 4 years of operation.

See paragraph 14 of the SGEI Framework.
NorthLink 1's gennemsnitlige årlige indtægt fra aktiviteterne vedrørende offentlig tjeneste udgjorde 32,4 mio. GBP (jf. ovenfor, tabel 3).
The average annual revenues from the public service activities of NorthLink 1 amounted to GBP 32,4 million (see table 3 above).
Se tabel 6.
See table 6.

NorthLink 2 havde en gennemsnitlig årlig indtægt fra aktiviteterne vedrørende offentlig tjeneste på 50,5 mio. GBP (se ovenfor, tabel 5).
The average annual revenues from the public service activities of NorthLink 2 amounted to GBP 50,5 million (see table 5 above).
Se betragtning 107-109.
See recitals 107 to 109.
Ifølge Det Forenede Kongeriges myndigheders skøn af den samlede indtægt fra denne ordning (for alle passagerer og biler omfattet heraf) i 2008 – omkring 95000 GBP – ville rabatten på 30 % svare til ca. 40700 GBP.
Based on the UK authorities estimation of the total revenue from this scheme (for all eligible passengers and cars) in 2008 - around GBP 95000 – the discount of 30 % would represent around GBP 40700.

Til sammenligning udgør de 725000 GBP, som NorthLink 2 ville beholde, hvis der var tale om en overkompensation på i alt 10 mio. GBP (en meget usandsynlig situation uden fortilfælde), kun ca. 2,5 % af den årlige kompensation, som NorthLink 2 fik udbetalt i 2007/2008, og en langt mindre andel af de samlede indtægter.
For comparison, if overcompensation were to total GBP 10 million (a very unlikely and unprecedented scenario), the GBP 725000 that NorthLink 2 would retain represents only around 2,5 % of the annual compensation paid to NorthLink 2 in 2007/2008 and a much lower proportion of total revenues.
Inden for den nye struktur udlejer CMAL fartøjerne og anløbsbroerne til CalMac Ferries Ltd. og Cowal Ferries Ltd. Desuden ejer og driver CMAL havnefaciliteterne i næsten halvdelen af de 50 destinationer, som CalMac Ferries Ltd. og Cowal Ferries Ltd. anløber.
Under the new arrangements, CMAL leases the vessels and piers to CalMac Ferries Ltd and Cowal Ferries Ltd. It also owns and operates the port facilities in nearly half of the 50 destinations that CalMac Ferries Ltd and Cowal Ferries Ltd serve.
CMAL er direkte og 100 % ejet af den skotske regering.
CMAL is wholly and directly owned by the Scottish Executive.
Western Ferries påbegyndte sin færgesejlads på ruten Gourock-Dunoon i 1973.
Western Ferries started operating on the Gourock-Dunoon route in 1973.
Selskabet har på nuværende tidspunkt fire bil-/passagerfærger, som sejler flere gange daglig og varetager ca. 88 % af biltransporten, 86 % af godstransporten og 68 % af passagertransporten [7].
It currently has four vehicle/passenger vessels doing several daily services and accounts for around 88 % of car traffic, 86 % of freight traffic and 68 % of passenger traffic [7].
Disse ruter indgik i tre offentlige udbud, som resulterede i tre kontrakter om offentlig tjeneste mellem de skotske myndigheder og tre operatører. P&O Ferries fra 1997 til 2002, NorthLink 1 fra 2002 til 2006 og NorthLink 2 fra 2006 til 2012.
Those routes were the subject of three public tenders leading to three public service contracts between the Scottish authorities and three operators: P&O Ferries from 1997 to 2002, NorthLink 1 from 2002 to 2006 and NorthLink 2 from 2006 to 2012.
I de to første udbud dækkede forpligtelserne til offentlig tjeneste kun passagertrafik (godstransport var ikke subsidieret, men heller ikke forbudt).
In the first two tenders, the public service obligations covered only passenger traffic (freight transport was not subsidised but was not prohibited either).
Kontrakten mellem NorthLink 1 og den skotske regering blev undertegnet i december 2000.
The contract between NorthLink 1 and the Scottish Executive was signed in December 2000.
Efter at være blevet tildelt kontrakten afgav NorthLink 1 en ordre på tre nye passager-/bilfærger og købte en brugt godsfærge.
Following the contract award, NorthLink 1 ordered three new passenger/vehicle ferries and acquired a second-hand dedicated freight vessel.
Det var oprindeligt forventet, at den nye operatør ville have tid til at skaffe og bygge nye skibe, så sejladsen kunne påbegyndes i april 2002.
It had first been anticipated that the new operator would have the time to commission and build new vessels to be ready to start operations in April 2002.
NorthLink 1 var imidlertid først klar til at påbegynde sejladsen den 1. oktober 2002.
However NorthLink 1 was only in a position to start operations on 1 October 2002.
På grund af denne forsinkelse forlængede den skotske regering kontrakten om offentlig tjeneste med P&O Ferries i seks måneder.
Because of this delay, the Scottish Executive prolonged the public service contract with P&O Ferries for 6 months.
P&O Ferries var den eneste operatør, der havde tilbudt en roll on/roll off-færgeforbindelse (herefter »ro-ro«) til passagerer, biler og gods mellem det skotske fastland og de nordlige øer i tidsrummet 1997-2002.
P&O Ferries had been the only operator offering a roll on/roll off (hereinafter ‘ro-ro’) service for passengers, cars and freight between the Scottish mainland and the northern islands between 1997 and 2002.
I sit budget havde NorthLink 1 også antaget, at selskabet ville få monopol på ro-ro-transporten.
In its projections NorthLink 1 had also assumed that it would enjoy a monopoly on ro-ro traffic.
Der blev herefter afgivet to bud den 30. november 2005, mens det tredje selskab trak sig ud af processen i oktober 2005.
Subsequently, two bids were submitted on 30 November 2005 and the third company withdrew from the process in October 2005.
Den 9. marts 2006 bekendtgjorde den skotske regering, at CalMac var blevet valgt som den foretrukne bydende.
On 9 March 2006 the Scottish Executive announced the selection of the preferred bidder – CalMac.
Der blev oprettet et nyt selskab, NorthLink 2, som et helejet datterselskab af CalMac (der selv ejes 100 % af de skotske myndigheder) til at udføre den kontrakt om offentlig tjeneste, som var tildelt CalMac, og som blev undertegnet den 6. juli 2006.
A new company was established, NorthLink 2, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of CalMac (itself fully-owned by the Scottish authorities) to run the public service contract awarded to CalMac, which was signed on 6 July 2006.
Kontrakten om offentlig tjeneste dækkede perioden 2006-2012.
The public service contract covered the period from 2006 to 2012.
NorthLink 2 overtog driften af de to ruter til de nordlige øer og størstedelen af NorthLink 1's aktiver og personale.
NorthLink 2 took over the operation of the two northern islands routes and most of the assets and personnel of NorthLink 1.
Siden NorthLink 2 i juli 2006 påbegyndte udførelsen af den tredje kontrakt om offentlig tjeneste, er det kommercielle pres på Streamline Shipping angiveligt blevet endnu større.
Since NorthLink 2 started in July 2006 to execute the third public service contract, the commercial pressure exerted on Streamline Shipping has allegedly increased further.
Ifølge Streamline Shipping bekendtgjorde den daværende transportminister, da NorthLink 2 blev tildelt den nye kontrakt om offentlig tjeneste, at takterne for godstransport fra Aberdeen til Shetlandsøerne ville blive sænket med 25 % og med 19 % til Orkneyøerne.
According to Streamline Shipping, the then Minister for Transport, when awarding to NorthLink 2 the new public service contract, announced that freight rates from Aberdeen to Shetland would be reduced by 25 % and to Orkney by 19 %.
Pentland Ferries hævder, at NorthLink 2 har haft en rabatordning for beboere på Orkneyøerne, som de kalder »venner og familie«, og som har en meget skadelig virkning på Pentland Ferries' konkurrerende rute, især efter at Pentland Ferries' nye katamaran Pentalina blev taget i drift i marts 2009.
Pentland Ferries argues that NorthLink 2 has been practicing a discount scheme for Orkney residents called ‘friends and family’ that is having a very detrimental effect on the competing service provided by Pentland Ferries, especially since the start of the operation of Pentland Ferries’ new catamaran Pentalina in March 2009.
Det hævdes nemlig, at NorthLink i 2008/2009 har udvidet denne rabat til et meget stort antal »venner og familie« og herved reelt har foretaget en generel nedsættelse af priserne på passagertransport og ødelagt Pentland Ferries konkurrerende rute.
Namely, it is argued that in 2008/2009 NorthLink has been extending this discount to a very large number of ‘friends and family’, thereby effectively decreasing passenger travel prices in a generalised way and damaging the competing service offered by Pentland Ferries.
Det Forenede Kongeriges myndigheder har forklaret, at denne rabatordning, som kun gælder i lav- og mellemsæsonen, kun kom 4952 passagerer til gode i 2008.
The UK authorities explained that this discount scheme, which is available only in the Low and Mid seasons, only benefited 4952 passengers in 2008.
Da NorthLink 2 transporterede 295913 passagerer i 2008, tegner rabatordningen sig kun for 1,6 % af NorthLink 2's passagertransport.
Since NorthLink 2 carried 295913 passengers in 2008, the discount scheme accounts for only 1,6 % of NorthLink 2’s carryings.

Streamline Shippings bemærkninger er de samme som i selskabets klage af juli 2004.
Streamline Shipping’s comments are similar to those made in its complaint of July 2004.
Selskabet mener, at NorthLink 1's finansielle krise var en direkte følge af virksomhedens strategi med at skade konkurrencen først fra Norse Island Ferries og derefter fra Streamline Shipping, ved hjælp af en drastisk sænkning af priserne på godstransport til et hidtil uset niveau.
They consider that the financial crisis of NorthLink 1 was a direct result of that undertaking’s strategy to damage competition, initially from Norse Island Ferries and subsequently from Streamline Shipping, by severely reducing the freight rates to unprecedented levels.
Markedet for cabotagesejlads har været fuldt liberaliseret, siden forordningen om cabotagesejlads trådte i kraft, dvs. siden 1. januar 1993.
The market for maritime cabotage routes has been fully liberalised since the entry into force of the Maritime Cabotage Regulation, i.e. since 1 January 1993.
Hvis en eller flere af disse virksomheder har fået en fordel i betragtning af Altmark-kriterierne, vil denne fordel kunne fordreje konkurrencevilkårene og påvirke samhandelen mellem medlemsstaterne.
If an advantage had been granted to any of those undertakings taking into account the Altmark criteria, this advantage would be liable to distort competition and affect trade between Member States.
Alt tyder på, at NorthLink 1 udtrykkeligt blev overdraget udførelsen af den pågældende offentlige tjeneste i perioden 2002-2006.
It seems clear that NorthLink 1 was explicitly entrusted with the provision of the public service in question in the period 2002-2006.
