»støtteordning« enhver retsakt, på grundlag af hvilken der uden yderligere gennemførelsesforanstaltninger kan ydes individuel støtte til virksomheder, som inden for denne retsakt defineres generelt og abstrakt, og enhver retsakt på grundlag af hvilken støtte, der ikke er knyttet til et specifikt projekt, kan ydes til en eller flere virksomheder, uden at tidsrummet eller beløbet er nærmere fastsat
In order to assess the compatibility with the internal market of any notified or unlawful State aid for which the Commission has exclusive competence under Article 108 TFEU, it is appropriate to ensure that the Commission has the power, for the purposes of enforcing the State aid rules, to request all necessary market information from any Member State, undertaking or association of undertakings whenever it has doubts as to the compatibility of the measure concerned with the Union rules, and has therefore initiated the formal investigation procedure.
»individuel støtte« støtte, der ikke ydes på grundlag af en støtteordning, og anmeldelsespligtige støttetildelinger på grundlag af en støtteordning
In particular, the Commission should use this power in cases in which a complex substantive assessment appears necessary.
»ulovlig støtte« ny støtte, der er gennemført i strid med artikel 108, stk. 3, i TEUF
In deciding whether to use this power, the Commission should take due account of the duration of the preliminary examination.
»misbrug af støtte« støtte, som støttemodtageren har anvendt i strid med en afgørelse vedtaget efter artikel 4, stk. 3, eller artikel 7, stk. 3 eller 4, i forordning (EF) nr. 659/1999 eller artikel 4, stk. 3, eller artikel 9, stk. 3 eller 4, i nærværende forordning
For the purpose of assessing the compatibility of an aid measure after the initiation of the formal investigation procedure, in particular as regards technically complex cases subject to substantive assessment, the Commission should be able, by simple request or by decision, to require any Member State, undertaking or association of undertakings to provide all market information necessary for completing its assessment, if the information provided by the Member State concerned during the course of the preliminary examination is not sufficient, taking due account of the principle of proportionality, in particular for small and medium-sized enterprises.
»interesserede parter« alle medlemsstater og personer, virksomheder eller sammenslutninger af virksomheder, hvis interesser måtte være berørt af den tildelte støtte, herunder navnlig støttemodtageren, konkurrerende virksomheder og erhvervsorganisationer.
In the light of the special relationship between aid beneficiaries and the Member State concerned, the Commission should be able to request information from an aid beneficiary only in agreement with the Member State concerned.
KAPITEL II
The provision of information by the beneficiary of the aid measure in question does not constitute a legal basis for bilateral negotiations between the Commission and the beneficiary in question.
PROCEDURE VEDRØRENDE ANMELDT STØTTE
The Commission should select the addressees of information requests on the basis of objective criteria appropriate to each case, while ensuring that, when the request is addressed to a sample of undertakings or associations thereof, the sample of respondents is representative within each category.
Artikel 2
The information sought should consist, in particular, of factual company and market data and facts-based analysis of the functioning of the market.
Anmeldelse af ny støtte
The Commission, as the initiator of the procedure, should be responsible for verifying both the information transmission by the Member States, undertakings or associations of undertakings, and the purported confidentiality of the information to be disclosed.
Medmindre andet er fastsat i forordninger udstedt i medfør af artikel 109 i TEUF eller i medfør af andre relevante bestemmelser i traktaten, skal planer om at yde ny støtte anmeldes i tilstrækkelig god tid til Kommissionen af den pågældende medlemsstat.
The Commission should be able to enforce compliance with the requests for information it addresses to any undertaking or association of undertakings, as appropriate, by means of proportionate fines and periodic penalty payments.
Kommissionen underretter straks den pågældende medlemsstat, når den modtager en anmeldelse.
In setting the amounts of fines and periodic penalty payments, the Commission should take due account of the principles of proportionality and appropriateness, in particular as regards small and medium-sized enterprises.
I en anmeldelse skal den pågældende medlemsstat give alle nødvendige oplysninger, så Kommissionen bliver i stand til at træffe en afgørelse efter artikel 4 og 9 (»fuldstændig anmeldelse«).
The rights of the parties requested to provide information should be safeguarded by giving them the opportunity to make known their views before any decision imposing fines or periodic penalty payments is taken.
Artikel 3
The Court of Justice of the European Union should have unlimited jurisdiction with regard to such fines and periodic penalties pursuant to Article 261 TFEU.
Standstill-klausul
Taking due account of the principles of proportionality and appropriateness, the Commission should be able to reduce the periodic penalty payments or waive them entirely, when addressees of requests provide the information requested, albeit after the expiry of the deadline.
Støtte, som skal anmeldes i medfør af artikel 2, stk. 1, må ikke gennemføres, før Kommissionen har vedtaget eller anses for at have vedtaget en afgørelse, hvori den godkender en sådan støtte.
Fines and periodic penalty payments are not applicable to Member States, since they are under a duty to cooperate sincerely with the Commission in accordance with Article 4(3) TEU, and to provide the Commission with all information required to allow it to carry out its duties under this Regulation.
Artikel 4
After having considered the comments submitted by the interested parties, the Commission should conclude its examination by means of a final decision as soon as the doubts have been removed.
Foreløbig undersøgelse af anmeldelsen og Kommissionens afgørelser
It is appropriate, should this examination not be concluded after a period of 18 months from the opening of the procedure, that the Member State concerned has the opportunity to request a decision, which the Commission should take within 2 months.
Kommissionen undersøger anmeldelsen straks ved modtagelsen.
In order to safeguard the rights of defence of the Member State concerned, it should be provided with copies of the requests for information sent to other Member States, undertakings or associations of undertakings, and be able to submit its observations on the comments received.
Med forbehold af artikel 10 vedtager Kommissionen en afgørelse efter stk. 2, 3 eller 4 i nærværende artikel.
It should also be informed of the names of the undertakings and the associations of undertakings requested, to the extent that these entities have not demonstrated a legitimate interest in the protection of their identity.
Konstaterer Kommissionen efter en foreløbig undersøgelse, at en anmeldt foranstaltning ikke udgør støtte, fastslår den dette ved afgørelse.
The Commission should take due account of the legitimate interests of undertakings in the protection of their business secrets.
Konstaterer Kommissionen efter en foreløbig undersøgelse, at en anmeldt foranstaltning ikke giver anledning til tvivl om, at den er forenelig med det indre marked, for så vidt den falder inden for anvendelsesområdet for artikel 107, stk. 1, i TEUF, træffer den afgørelse om, at foranstaltningen er forenelig med det indre marked, (»afgørelse om ikke at gøre indsigelse«).
It should not be able to use confidential information provided by respondents, which cannot be aggregated or otherwise be anonymised, in any decision unless it has previously obtained their agreement to disclose that information to the Member State concerned.
I afgørelsen anføres, hvilken undtagelse i TEUF der er anvendt.
In cases where information marked as confidential does not seem to be covered by obligations of professional secrecy, it is appropriate to have a mechanism in place according to which the Commission can decide the extent to which such information can be disclosed.
Konstaterer Kommissionen efter en foreløbig undersøgelse, at en anmeldt foranstaltning giver anledning til tvivl om, hvorvidt den er forenelig med det indre marked, træffer den afgørelse om at indlede proceduren efter artikel 108, stk. 2, i TEUF (»afgørelse om at indlede den formelle undersøgelsesprocedure«).
Any such decision to reject a claim that information is confidential should indicate a period at the end of which the information will be disclosed, so that the respondent can make use of any judicial protection available to it, including any interim measure.
De afgørelser, der er omhandlet i stk. 2, 3 og 4 i denne artikel, skal vedtages inden to måneder.
In order to ensure that the State aid rules are applied correctly and effectively, the Commission should have the opportunity of revoking a decision which was based on incorrect information.
Fristen løber fra dagen efter modtagelsen af en fuldstændig anmeldelse.
In order to ensure compliance with Article 108 TFEU, and in particular with the notification obligation and the standstill clause in Article 108(3), the Commission should examine all cases of unlawful aid.
Anmeldelsen betragtes som fuldstændig, hvis Kommissionen ikke inden for to måneder fra modtagelsen af anmeldelsen eller fra modtagelsen af eventuelle ønskede supplerende oplysninger anmoder om yderligere oplysninger.
In the interests of transparency and legal certainty, the procedures to be followed in such cases should be laid down.
Fristen kan forlænges efter aftale mellem Kommissionen og den pågældende medlemsstat.
When a Member State has not respected the notification obligation or the standstill clause, the Commission should not be bound by time limits.
Kommissionen kan eventuelt fastsætte kortere frister.
The Commission should be able, on its own initiative, to examine information on unlawful aid, from whatever source, in order to ensure compliance with Article 108 TFEU, and in particular with the notification obligation and standstill clause laid down in Article 108(3) TFEU, and to assess the compatibility of an aid with the internal market.
Har Kommissionen ikke truffet en afgørelse i henhold til stk. 2, 3 eller 4 inden for fristen i stk. 5, anses støtten for at være godkendt af Kommissionen.
In cases of unlawful aid, the Commission should have the right to obtain all necessary information enabling it to take a decision and to restore immediately, where appropriate, undistorted competition.
Den pågældende medlemsstat kan derefter gennemføre de pågældende foranstaltninger efter i forvejen at have givet Kommissionen meddelelse herom, medmindre Kommissionen træffer en afgørelse i henhold til denne artikel inden for en frist på 15 arbejdsdage efter modtagelsen af meddelelsen.
It is therefore appropriate to enable the Commission to adopt interim measures addressed to the Member State concerned.
Artikel 5
The interim measures may take the form of information injunctions, suspension injunctions and recovery injunctions.
Begæring om oplysninger fremsat til den anmeldende medlemsstat
The Commission should be enabled, in the event of non-compliance with an information injunction, to decide on the basis of the information available and, in the event of non-compliance with suspension and recovery injunctions, to refer the matter to the Court of Justice directly, in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 108(2) TFEU.
Mener Kommissionen, at oplysninger, som den pågældende medlemsstat har indsendt i forbindelse med en foranstaltning, der er anmeldt efter artikel 2, er ufuldstændige, anmoder den om alle nødvendige yderligere oplysninger.
In cases of unlawful aid which is not compatible with the internal market, effective competition should be restored.
Hvis en medlemsstat efterkommer en sådan anmodning, underretter Kommissionen medlemsstaten om modtagelsen af svaret.
For this purpose it is necessary that the aid, including interest, be recovered without delay.
Hvis den pågældende medlemsstat ikke meddeler de krævede oplysninger inden udløbet af den af Kommissionen fastsatte frist, eller hvis oplysningerne er ufuldstændige, sender Kommissionen en rykkerskrivelse, hvori den giver en passende yderligere frist, inden for hvilken oplysningerne skal meddeles.
It is appropriate that recovery be effected in accordance with the procedures of national law.
Anmeldelsen anses for at være trukket tilbage, hvis de krævede oplysninger ikke meddeles inden for den fastsatte frist, medmindre enten denne frist er blevet forlænget inden udløbet af den efter aftale mellem Kommissionen og den pågældende medlemsstat, eller den pågældende medlemsstat inden for den fastsatte frist i en behørigt begrundet anmodning meddeler Kommissionen, at den anser anmeldelsen for at være fuldstændig, fordi de krævede oplysninger ikke findes eller allerede er meddelt.
The application of those procedures should not, by preventing the immediate and effective execution of the Commission decision, impede the restoration of effective competition.
I så fald løber fristen i artikel 4, stk. 5, fra dagen efter modtagelsen af erklæringen.
To achieve this result, Member States should take all necessary measures ensuring the effectiveness of the Commission decision.
Hvis anmeldelsen anses for at være trukket tilbage, underretter Kommissionen medlemsstaten herom.
For reasons of legal certainty it is appropriate to provide for a period of limitation of 10 years with regard to unlawful aid, after the expiry of which no recovery can be ordered.
Artikel 6
For reasons of legal certainty, it is appropriate to provide for limitation periods for the imposition and enforcement of fines and periodic penalty payments.
Formel undersøgelsesprocedure
Misuse of aid may have effects on the functioning of the internal market which are similar to those of unlawful aid and should thus be treated according to similar procedures.
Afgørelsen om at indlede den formelle undersøgelsesprocedure skal sammenfatte de relevante faktiske og retlige spørgsmål, indeholde en foreløbig vurdering fra Kommissionens side med hensyn til støttekarakteren af den påtænkte foranstaltning og anføre, om der er tvivl om, hvorvidt den er forenelig med det indre marked.
Unlike unlawful aid, aid which has possibly been misused is aid which has been previously approved by the Commission.
I afgørelsen skal den pågældende medlemsstat og andre interesserede parter opfordres til at fremsætte bemærkninger inden for en nærmere fastsat frist, der normalt ikke må overstige en måned.
Therefore the Commission should not be allowed to use a recovery injunction with regard to misuse of aid.
I behørigt begrundede tilfælde kan Kommissionen forlænge denne frist.
In accordance with Article 108(1) TFEU, the Commission is under an obligation, in cooperation with Member States, to keep under constant review all systems of existing aid.
De modtagne bemærkninger videregives til den pågældende medlemsstat.
In the interests of transparency and legal certainty, it is appropriate to specify the scope of cooperation under that Article.
Hvis en interesseret part kræver det under henvisning til risiko for skade, må dens identitet ikke meddeles den pågældende medlemsstat.
In order to ensure compatibility of existing aid schemes with the internal market and in accordance with Article 108(1) TFEU, the Commission should propose appropriate measures where an existing aid scheme is not, or is no longer, compatible with the internal market and should initiate the procedure provided for in Article 108(2) TFEU if the Member State concerned declines to implement the proposed measures.
Den pågældende medlemsstat kan besvare de fremsatte bemærkninger inden for en nærmere fastsat frist, der normalt ikke må overstige en måned.
It is appropriate to set out all the possibilities which third parties have to defend their interests in State aid procedures.
Artikel 7
Complaints are an essential source of information for detecting infringements of the Union rules on State aid.
Begæring om oplysninger fremsat til andre kilder
To ensure the quality of the complaints submitted to the Commission, and at the same time transparency and legal certainty, it is appropriate to lay down the conditions that a complaint should fulfill in order to put the Commission in possession of information regarding alleged unlawful aid and set in motion the preliminary examination.
Efter indledningen af den formelle undersøgelsesprocedure, jf. artikel 6, og navnlig i forbindelse med teknisk komplicerede sager, der kræver en grundig vurdering, kan Kommissionen, hvis de oplysninger, som den pågældende medlemsstat har afgivet under den foreløbige undersøgelse, ikke er tilstrækkelige, afkræve en anden medlemsstat, en virksomhed eller en sammenslutning af virksomheder alle de markedsoplysninger, der er nødvendige for, at Kommissionen kan afslutte sin vurdering af den pågældende foranstaltning, idet den tager behørigt hensyn til proportionalitetsprincippet, navnlig for små og mellemstore virksomheder.
Submissions not meeting those conditions should be treated as general market information, and should not necessarily lead to ex officio investigations.
Kommissionen må kun begære oplysninger:
Complainants should be required to demonstrate that they are interested parties within the meaning of Article 108(2) TFEU and of Article 1(h) of this Regulation.
der vedrører formelle undersøgelser, som Kommissionen har betegnet som ineffektive til dato, og
They should also be required to provide a certain amount of information in a form that the Commission should be empowered to set out in an implementing provision.
der vedrører støttemodtagerne, såfremt den pågældende medlemsstat giver sit samtykke til begæringen.
In order not to discourage prospective complainants, that implementing provision should take into account that the demands on interested parties for lodging a complaint should not be burdensome.
Virksomheder eller sammenslutninger af virksomheder, der afgiver oplysninger efter en begæring fra Kommissionen om markedsoplysninger i henhold til stk. 6 og 7, skal afgive deres svar samtidigt til Kommissionen og den pågældende medlemsstat, for så vidt de forelagte dokumenter ikke indeholder oplysninger, der er fortrolige i forhold til den pågældende medlemsstat.
In order to ensure that the Commission addresses similar issues in a consistent manner across the internal market, it is appropriate to provide for a specific legal basis to launch investigations into sectors of the economy or into certain aid instruments across several Member States.
Kommissionen styrer og overvåger videregivelsen af oplysninger mellem de berørte medlemsstater, virksomheder eller sammenslutninger af virksomheder og kontrollerer den påståede fortrolige karakter af de videregivne oplysninger.
For reasons of proportionality and in the light of the high administrative burden entailed by such investigations, sector inquiries should be carried out only when the information available substantiates a reasonable suspicion that State aid measures in a particular sector could materially restrict or distort competition within the internal market in several Member States, or that existing aid measures in a particular sector in several Member States are not, or are no longer, compatible with the internal market.
Kommissionen må kun begære oplysninger, som medlemsstaten, virksomheden eller sammenslutningen af virksomheder eller en medlemsstat, som er berørt af begæringen, er i besiddelse af.
Such inquiries would enable the Commission to deal in an efficient and transparent way with horizontal State aid issues and to obtain an ex ante overview of the sector concerned.
Medlemsstaterne afgiver oplysningerne på grundlag af en simpel begæring og inden for en af Kommissionen fastsat frist, der normalt ikke bør overstige en måned.
In order to allow the Commission to monitor effectively compliance with Commission decisions and to facilitate cooperation between the Commission and Member States for the purpose of the constant review of all existing aid schemes in the Member States in accordance with Article 108(1) TFEU, it is necessary that a general reporting obligation with regard to all existing aid schemes be laid down.
Hvis en medlemsstat ikke afgiver de ønskede oplysninger inden udløbet af fristen, eller hvis oplysningerne er ufuldstændige, sender Kommissionen en rykkerskrivelse.
Where the Commission has serious doubts as to whether its decisions are being complied with, it should have at its disposal additional instruments allowing it to obtain the information necessary to verify that its decisions are being effectively complied with.
Kommissionen kan ved simpel begæring anmode en virksomhed eller en sammenslutning af virksomheder om at afgive oplysninger.
For this purpose on-site monitoring visits are an appropriate and useful instrument, in particular for cases where aid might have been misused.
Når Kommissionen sender en simpel begæring om oplysninger til en virksomhed eller en sammenslutning af virksomheder, anfører den retsgrundlaget og formålet med begæringen, præciserer, hvilke oplysninger der kræves, og fastsætter en rimelig frist, inden for hvilken oplysningerne skal afgives.
Therefore the Commission should be empowered to undertake on-site monitoring visits and should obtain the cooperation of the competent authorities of the Member States where an undertaking opposes such a visit.
Den henviser desuden til de bøder, der er omhandlet i artikel 8, stk. 1, og som pålægges ved afgivelse af urigtige eller vildledende oplysninger.
Consistency in the application of the State aid rules requires that arrangements be established for cooperation between the courts of the Member States and the Commission.
Kommissionen kan ved afgørelse afkræve en virksomhed eller en sammenslutning af virksomheder oplysninger.
Such cooperation is relevant for all courts of the Member States that apply Article 107(1) and Article 108 TFEU.
Når Kommissionen ved afgørelse pålægger en virksomhed eller en sammenslutning af virksomheder at afgive oplysninger, anfører den retsgrundlaget og formålet med begæringen og præciserer, hvilke oplysninger der kræves, og fastsætter en rimelig frist, inden for hvilken oplysningerne skal afgives.
In particular, national courts should be able to ask the Commission for information or for its opinion on points concerning the application of State aid rules.
Den henviser desuden til de bøder, der er omhandlet i artikel 8, stk. 1, og henviser til eller pålægger de tvangsbøder, der er omhandlet i artikel 8, stk. 2, alt efter hvad der er relevant.
The Commission should also be able to submit written or oral observations to courts which are called upon to apply Article 107(1) or Article 108 TFEU.
Den henviser derudover til den ret, som virksomheden eller sammenslutningen af virksomheder har til at få afgørelsen prøvet ved Den Europæiske Unions Domstol.
When assisting national courts in this respect, the Commission should act in accordance with its duty to defend the public interest.
Ved fremsættelse af en begæring i henhold til stk. 1 eller 6 i denne artikel eller vedtagelse af en afgørelse i henhold til stk. 7 skal Kommissionen endvidere samtidigt give den pågældende medlemsstat en kopi heraf.
Those observations and opinions of the Commission should be without prejudice to Article 267 TFEU and not legally bind the national courts.
Kommissionen angiver de kriterier, der er lagt til grund for udvælgelsen af modtagerne af begæringen eller afgørelsen.
They should be submitted within the framework of national procedural rules and practices including those safeguarding the rights of the parties, in full respect of the independence of the national courts.
