Ifølge den skal SMAN endvidere overføre det tilskud, de har modtaget fra regionen Languedoc-Roussillon til VTAN i overensstemmelse med den aftale, de har indgået med denne myndighed, for at støtte udviklingen af turiststrømme i forbindelse med lavprisflytrafikken.
the sums of EUR 22937 and EUR 43613 indicated respectively for the years 2000 and 2001 were allocated to the operation of the shuttle between the centre of Nîmes and the airport,
Ifølge VTAN har de forpligtede udgifter, som blev støttet af dette kommunikationstilskud, i intet tilfælde finansieret yderligere reklame til Ryanairs datterselskab (AMS), men har bidraget til public service-opgaven med at udvikle turiststrømme og fremme den lokale økonomi.
the sum of EUR 412934 indicated for the year 2003 corresponds to financing for the shuttle (EUR 12603), a FIATA subsidy (EUR 14218) and financing provided by the state (EUR 386103) to cover sovereign safety tasks falling within the scope of the airport tax and the FIATA,
VTAN ansatte bl.a. en salgschef med ansvar for udvikling og kommerciel kommunikation samt lufthavnsudvikling gennem talrige »B2B-møder hos luftfartsselskaber, flere »e-mailkampagner« og deltagelse i messer og fora inden for lufttransportområdet (som f.eks. BMT-messen i Napoli i Italien, der muliggjorde den direkte kontakt til fem italienske tour operators), som er direkte orienteret mod et udenlandsk klientel.
the sum of EUR 43281 indicated for the year 2004 corresponds to financing for the shuttle (EUR 3694) and a FIATA subsidy (EUR 39587),
Den 8. april 2011 blev der indgået en aftaleprotokol mellem SMAN og VTAN med henblik på at definere en samordnet strategi for forpligtelse af de nødvendige udgifter til opretholdelse af luftfartsaktiviteten efter den 1. juli 2011, hvor marineflyvebasen indstillede sine aktiviteter, hvilket indebar en revision af ledelsen af hele platformen.
the sum of EUR 13758 indicated in the ‘other’ column for the year 2005 corresponds to a FIATA subsidy.
Siden den 2. juli 2011 har staten overført en del af den tidligere militære zones område samt opgaver og ansvar, der tidligere blev udøvet af forsvarsministeriet, til SMAN.
The shuttle is operated by an external service provider with financial assistance from various public authorities.
Denne overdragelse har bevirket en ændring af omfanget af VTAN's ansvarsområder inden for rammerne af CDSP.
It is not under the control of the CCI-Airport and does not fall within the scope of its activities.
I den forbindelse indgik SMAN og VTAN den 30. juni 2011 en ny tillægskontrakt til CDSP (i det følgende benævnt »tillægskontrakt nr. 4«) med det formål dels at forlænge CDSP's oprindelige løbetid med et år og dels at ændre omfanget af luftfartsselskabets forpligtelser og de nærmere betingelser for godtgørelsen heraf.
France has also made clear that, except for the payment of EUR 200000 from 2006, referred to in recital 55, the CCI did not make any transfer between the general arm’s accounts and the airport arm’s accounts during the term of the concession.
VTAN blev fra denne dato ansvarlig for de aktiviteter, som indtil da havde henhørt under forsvarsministeriet, med undtagelse af kontrollen med luftfartssikkerhed.
However, it notes that repayable advances were made.
Selskabet skal ligeledes købe materiellet fra den militære zone og foretage de nødvendige investeringer i disse infrastrukturer.
The flows and reserves of these advances are summarised in Table 4 in this recital.
For at tage hensyn til disse nye driftsomkostninger og supplerende investeringsudgifter fik det bemyndigede luftfartsselskab tildelt et specifikt offentligt bidrag på anslået [300000-600000] EUR for 2011 og tilskud til infrastruktur.
Table 4
Infrastrukturtilskuddet var på ca. [900000-1400000] EUR ([300000-500000] EUR for 2011 og [600000-900000] EUR for 2012).
Advances from the CCI’s general arm to its airport arm (EUR) [34]
Ved kontraktens ophør skulle der foretages en justering for at tilpasse udbetalingerne til de udgifter, VTAN faktisk havde afholdt, og de afgifter, SMAN faktisk havde opkrævet.
Advance received
Frankrig gør gældende, at ovennævnte tilskud havde til formål at dække investeringer i forbindelse med statslige aktiviteter samt arbejder med henblik på godkendelse af lufthavnen, som ikke var forudset ved tildelingen af public service-kontrakten.
Advance reserve at year-end
Investeringer i lufthavnsområdet
The reserve of advances from the CCI’s general arm was automatically converted to subsidy when the public equipment concession was terminated on 31 January 2006.
Disse investeringer på [200000-400000] EUR var fastsat til regnskabsåret 2007 og skulle afskrives over CDSP's løbetid.
As allowed by the terms of the 1965 concession agreement, the state terminated this concession early in 2006.
I overensstemmelse med tillægskontrakt nr. 2 finansierede VTAN fornyelsen af lufthavnens kølegruppe, som den fuldmagtsgivende myndighed forpligter sig til at tage tilbage ved kontraktens udløb mod betaling til luftfartsselskabet af det, der svarer til den ikkeafskrevne værdi af aktivet.
It then applied Article 48 of the 1965 concession agreement, under which, at the end of the concession, ‘the state shall reimburse to the Chamber of Commerce those advances made by the latter from its own resources etc.’
Generelt finansierer lufthavnsforvalteren vedligeholdelse og fornyelse af driftsmateriellet.
Finally, the Commission noted in the opening decision that, for the 2000-2006 period, the CCI-Airport had not entered any costs under the ‘Contribution to the manager’s overheads’ heading in its accounts.
Siden den 2. juli 2011 har omfanget af CDSP omfattet den militære zone.
However, in its reply to the opening decision, France indicated that all the services common to the CCI’s various arms, including the CCI-Airport, were rebilled, with the contribution of each arm being determined based on an allocation key that was itself based on the volume of services used by each arm of the CCI.
Disse arbejder blev udpeget af arbejdsgrupper med deltagelse af Direction Générale de l'Aviation Civile, forsvarsministeriet, SMAN og VTAN.
France provided details of the airport arm’s contributions to the overheads between 2000 and 2006, item by item (management control, staff management, accounting, IT, supplies, insurance, mail).
Som anført i betragtning 72 skulle VTAN til gengæld for disse nye forpligtelser modtage et tilskud til infrastruktur på anslået [300000-500000] EUR for 2011 og [600000-900000] EUR for 2012, dvs. i alt [900000-1400000] EUR.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR VTAN
Ifølge Frankrig beløber de investeringer, VTAN har foretaget i hele CDSP's løbetid, sig til [600000-900000] EUR.
Contractual framework and operating subsidies
KONTRAKTER INDGÅET MED RYANAIR/AMS
The company Veolia Transport was entrusted with operating Nîmes airport from 1 January 2007.
Ryanairs aktiviteter i Nîmes lufthavn er beskrevet i betragtning 18.
The extent of its responsibilities and the operating conditions were defined by the SMAN, as the delegating authority, in the CDSP.
KONTRAKTER INDGÅET MED CCI-LUFTHAVN
This agreement covered the operation, maintenance and servicing of the civilian area of the airport, the development of traffic and the development of services for the handling of civilian aircraft and for those undertakings established at the site.
De franske myndigheder præciserer, at beskæftigelsesområdet omkring platformen, som var i størrelsesordenen over 2000 arbejdspladser, indskrev sig i en samlet balance, hvori indgik hæren, flyvetekniske industrivirksomheder (genanvendelse af brændstof) og passagertransport.
Subsequently, and in accordance with Article 1a of the CDSP, Veolia Transport set up the company VTAN to perform the CDSP.
I denne økonomiske sammenhæng søgte CCI først alene, siden sammen med regionale forvaltningsmyndigheder som partnere, at opretholde driften af ruter fra Nîmes lufthavn.
The parent company of VTAN, Veolia Transport, was also authorised to engage in other commercial activities ‘related’ to the task of operating the airport.
CCI søgte bl.a. at afhjælpe faldet i trafik, der blev konstateret efter meddelelsen om anlæggelsen af TGV-linjen, som blev endeligt realiseret i 2001.
In accordance with Article 27 of the CDSP, a flat-rate contribution was paid by the SMAN to VTAN every year to ensure that the airport’s operation was financially stable.
De franske myndigheder bekræftede også, at de ikke havde truffet en formel beslutning om at give tilladelse til forhandlinger om kontrakter og tillægskontrakter indgået med Ryanair og CCI.
This contribution was calculated as the difference between the delegatee’s commitment in terms of the predicted level of expenditure (total costs plus net margin before tax) and its commitment in terms of the predicted level of revenue.
Frankrig præciserer således, at indgåelse af kontrakter med flyselskaber er en almindelig forvaltningshandling, hvortil det ikke er nødvendigt at have generalforsamlingens samtykke, eftersom direktøren for CCI har vide beføjelser, der bl.a. omfatter retten til at underskrive kontrakter på vegne af CCI.
This contribution was fixed, except for annual indexation based on a formula set out in Article 27.6 of the CDSP.
Kontrakt af 11. april 2000 mellem CCI og Ryanair
Under this agreement, the flat-rate contribution was set at EUR [1,2-1,5] million per year net of VAT (2005 euro value) in a reference scenario corresponding to the operating conditions prevailing in the second quarter of 2006.
En første kontrakt indgået den 11. april 2000 mellem CCI og Ryanair for en varighed på 10 år fastsætter størrelsen af den lufthavnsafgift, der skal gælde for Ryanair.
However, the CDSP stipulated that the flat-rate contribution would change if VTAN found itself in a ‘downturn scenario’, defined by specific criteria set out in the CDSP.
Luftfartsselskabet forpligtede sig her ligeledes til at beflyve Nîmes lufthavn dagligt.
This downturn scenario corresponded to a drop in activity resulting in a change to the rotation schedule for aircraft on scheduled routes, itself leading to the airport’s second staff team being axed and the predicted expenditure therefore falling.
I betragtning af karakteristika og ruteplaner fandt parkerings- og afmærkningsafgifter ikke anvendelse på luftfartsselskabet.
Taking into account the additional corporation tax of 10 % of the difference in the pre-tax margin, this reduction formula allowed the savings not initially predicted to be equally shared between the SMAN and VTAN.
Ryanair fik ligeledes […].
On 27 January 2010 an initial amendment was made to the CDSP (‘Amendment No 1’) due to VTAN being unable to collect the fee associated with the temporary occupation authorisation for a factory situated in the airport zone (the SGAÏ factory), which was an unknown factor at the time when Veolia drew up its tender.
Passager- og landingsafgifter for selskabet svarer til de generelle takster.
Amendment No 1 to the CDSP increased the flat-rate contribution by EUR [20000-50000].
Frankrig erindrer om, at et hvilket som helst selskab, som driver den samme mængde flyvninger som Ryanair, ville have fået den samme takst.
A second amendment (‘Amendment No 2’) was signed on 20 July 2010 with a view to committing VTAN to renewing the airport’s air-conditioning system.
Til gengæld for rabatterne til Ryanair på afgiften for groundhandlingydelser skulle Ryanair ifølge kontrakten betale en bod, såfremt det årlige passagermål ikke blev nået.
This amendment stipulated that the SMAN would compensate VTAN for the undepreciated value of the equipment at the end of the delegation.
I så fald skulle Ryanair betale en bod på […] EUR pr. manglende passager.
A third amendment (‘Amendment No 3’) to the CDSP was signed on 23 March 2011.
Ryanair fik bevilget en mere gunstig takst på […] EUR af VTAN på grund af det store antal flyvninger.
This introduced the possibility of the flat-rate contribution being increased in the amount of the subsidies received by the SMAN from other public authorities.
Ifølge aftalen skal en del af provenuet af den i kontrakten med Ryanair fastsatte landingsafgift ligeledes betales som deltagelse i marketingudgifterne.
It also stipulated that the SMAN would transfer to VTAN the subsidy received from the Languedoc-Roussillon Region under the agreement signed with that authority to support the development of tourist traffic through low-cost air travel.
Dette bidrag blev sidestillet med en del af landingsafgiftsprovenuet beregnet som forskellen mellem den landingsafgift, Ryanair betalte, og et beløb på […] EUR med tillæg af en del af passagerafgiften på […] EUR pr. EU-passager.
This subsidy amounted to EUR [100000-300000] for 2009.
Ændringer i kontrakten af 11. april 2000
The SMAN took the view that VTAN had incurred expenditure in supporting the development of tourist traffic and therefore wanted to increase the flat-rate contribution by the amount of the subsidy received.
Ændringerne af 2001 indebar en forhøjelse af det marketingbidrag, CCI betalte til Ryanair, og som blev fastsat til fremover […] EUR pr. afrejsende passager fra Nîmes lufthavn på ruter til London indtil den 31. oktober 2002, på betingelse af at Ryanair oprettede en anden rute til London svarende til sommerruten.
France has indicated that this subsidy was intended to cover the costs incurred by VTAN in dealing with the reduction in traffic triggered by Ryanair’s decision in March 2009 to no longer operate flights from Nîmes airport to East Midlands and to reduce the number of flights to Liverpool and London Luton.
Dog fastsætter ændringerne af 2004 en forhøjelse af marketingbidraget på […] EUR pr. passager, på betingelse af at der bliver åbnet en anden rute til London i sommersæsonen (fra den 29. april 2004).
According to VTAN, the expenditure supported by this public relations subsidy did not in any way finance the additional advertising with Ryanair’s subsidiary (AMS), but was targeted at the public service mission of developing tourist traffic and promoting the local economy.
Kontrakt af 10. oktober 2005 mellem CCI og Ryanair
In particular VTAN recruited a sales manager who was in charge of public relations development and marketing as well as efforts to develop air traffic through numerous B2B meetings at airline offices, several email campaigns and participation in air transport trade shows and forums (such as the BMT trade show in Naples, Italy, which enabled contact with five Italian tour operators) directly aimed at foreign customers.
Den 10. oktober 2005 blev der indgået en ny kontrakt mellem Ryanair og CCI med en indledende løbetid på fem år og mulighed for forlængelse i fem år.
On 8 April 2011 an agreement was signed between the SMAN and VTAN to define a coordinated approach to the commitment of the expenditure needed to maintain aviation activity after 1 July 2011, the date when the airbase closed, which required the governance of the entire airport to be reviewed.
Den fastsætter med tilbagevirkende kraft fra 1. januar 2005 den lufthavnsafgift, Ryanair skal betale, og som svarer til den generelle takst for Nîmes lufthavn med undtagelse af fritagelsen for afgift for parkering, afmærkning og […].
On 2 July 2011 the state transferred to the SMAN part of the former military area as well as the tasks and responsibilities previously assumed by the Ministry of Defence.
Desuden blev der fastsat trafikmål for selskabet.
This transfer had the effect of altering the area and responsibilities entrusted to VTAN under the CDSP.
Den nye kontrakt indeholder ligeledes en bestemmelse om overskudsdeling i forhold til trafikudviklingen eller »incitamentsordningen«.
In this context, on 30 June 2011 the SMAN and VTAN signed a new amendment to the CDSP (‘Amendment No 4’), which, on the one hand, extended the initial term of the CDSP by one year and, on the other hand, altered the obligations of the delegatee and the terms of its compensation.
Denne bygger på, at CCI betaler et bidrag på […] EUR pr. afrejsende passager fra Nîmes lufthavn og på […] EUR pr. landing i hele kontraktens løbetid.
From that date, VTAN became responsible for the activities previously carried out by the Ministry of Defence, except for control over aviation safety.
Der fastsættes en sanktionsbestemmelse i tilfælde af, at Ryanair ikke skulle nå de i kontrakten aftalte trafikmål.
It also had to purchase the equipment in the military area and make the investments in this infrastructure that were deemed necessary.
Ligger det transporterede antal passagerer mellem […] og […] % af det fastsatte mål, nedsættes det udbetalte beløb pr. passager ifølge bestemmelsen til […] EUR hele det berørte år, og indtil trafikken genoprettes.
In view of these new operating costs and additional investments, a specific public contribution estimated at EUR [300000-600000] for 2011 and equipment subsidies were granted to the delegatee.
Hvis antallet af passagerer er under […] % af det fastsatte mål, […].
The equipment subsidies were estimated at EUR [900000-1400000] (EUR [300000-500000] for 2011 and EUR [600000-900000] for 2012).
Ifølge denne kontrakt forpligter Ryanair sig til at drive:
At the end of the delegation, a readjustment was to be made in order to bring the payments into line with the expenditure actually incurred by VTAN and the taxes actually received by the SMAN.
en daglig forbindelse til London Stansted med et antal på 40000 passagerer om året
France asserts that the aforementioned subsidy was intended to cover investments in sovereign activities and certification work on the airport that was not anticipated at the time when the public service delegation was granted.
en ekstra daglig forbindelse til London Stansted om sommeren i seks måneder i træk med yderligere 22000 passagerer
Investments in the airport zone
en forbindelse til Liverpool fire dage om ugen med et antal på 22000 passagerer
The CDSP stipulated that the operator was responsible for only some of the investments.
en ekstra forbindelse fra april 2006 til en destination, som fastsættes nærmere, med et antal passagerer på 22000.
VTAN therefore had to finance the investments involved in taking over the restaurant equipment, amounting to EUR [150000-350000], developing the airport’s shops, and purchasing the equipment needed for entertainment in the terminal.
Kontrakten fastsætter desuden bøder gældende for de rabatter, Ryanair har fået bevilget på afgifter for groundhandlingydelser samt en bod på […] EUR pr. passager, hvis det årlige passagermål ikke nås.
These investments, totalling EUR [200000-400000], were planned for the 2007 financial year and were to be depreciated over the term of the CDSP.
Kontrakt af 10. oktober 2005 mellem CCI og AMS
In accordance with Amendment No 2, VTAN financed the renewal of the airport’s air-conditioning system, which the delegating authority undertook to take over at the end of the delegation, in return for the delegatee being paid the undepreciated value of the asset.
Den 10. oktober 2005 indgås der ligeledes en kontrakt for en periode på fem år med mulighed for forlængelse i en ny periode af samme længde mellem CCI og Airport Marketing Services Limited (i det følgende benævnt »AMS«), et helejet datterselskab af Ryanair.
Generally speaking, the operator financed the maintenance and renewal of the operating equipment.

All other investments were the responsibility of the SMAN and its member authorities.

From 2 July 2011 the area covered by the CDSP included the military area.
visning syv dage om året af et link til det websted, som CCI angiver, på Ryanairs britiske websteds velkomstside.
According to France, the transfer of management of the military area necessitated work and purchases that were vital in order to continue operating the airport, particularly in terms of its certification (i.e. to ensure the transfer of management of the former military area of Nîmes airport and the tasks carried out up to then by the airbase, which had the effect of altering the obligations of VTAN and the terms of its compensation).
fra meddelelsen om nye forbindelser med afrejse fra Nîmes lufthavn i 2006 visning 26 dage om året af et link til det websted, CCI angiver, på Ryanairs britiske websteds velkomstside (pakke nr. 2) til et beløb på […] EUR om året
As indicated in recital 72, in return for these new obligations, VTAN was to receive an equipment subsidy estimated at EUR [300000-500000] for 2011 and EUR [600000-900000] for 2012, i.e. a total of EUR [900000-1400000].
fra meddelelsen om nye forbindelser med afrejse fra Nîmes lufthavn i 2007 visning 3 ekstra dage om året af et link til det websted, CCI angiver, på webstedets velkomstside (pakke nr. 3) til et beløb på […] EUR om året
According to France, the investments made by VTAN over the entire term of the CDSP amounted to EUR [600000-900000].

The history of Ryanair’s activity at Nîmes airport is set out in recital 18.
i 2007: et tilbud pr. e-mail med promovering af Nîmes som destination til et beløb på […] EUR.
AGREEMENTS SIGNED WITH THE CCI-AIRPORT
Denne kontrakt er blevet ændret ved to tillægskontrakter:
The French authorities point out that there was a general balance among the activities pursued at the airport, which was based on the coexistence of the army, industrial enterprises in the aviation field (fuel recycling) and passenger transport activity, with over 2000 jobs being at stake.
Tillægskontrakt af 30. januar 2006 (ændring nr. 1), som forlænger varigheden af kontrakten mellem CCI og AMS til afslutningen af den faktiske drift af lufthavnen, dvs. den 31. december 2006, også selv om koncessionen på offentligt driftsmateriel ophæves.
In this economic context, the CCI, firstly on its own and subsequently with its partner local and regional authorities, sought to maintain the routes operated from Nîmes airport.
Denne tillægskontrakt indeholder en bestemmelse om »bedre indsats« fra CCI og AMS' side, hvis der skal indgås en tilsvarende kontrakt med den fremtidige forvalter.
In particular the CCI strived to overcome the drop in traffic recorded following the announcement of the new TGV line, which finally came into operation in June 2001.
Ifølge de franske myndigheder skulle denne tillægskontrakt være den logiske konsekvens af den midlertidige forlængelse af CCI's drift af lufthavnen ud over koncessionskontrakten.
The French authorities have also confirmed that the agreements and amendments signed between Ryanair and the CCI were not the subject of any formal resolutions by the CCI authorising the negotiations.
Tillægskontrakt af 17. oktober 2006 (ændring nr. 2), som nedsætter størrelsen af de leverede marketingydelser til CCI, da det ifølge CCI var umuligt at etablere de ønskede marketingmedier.
In this respect, France makes clear that the signature of agreements with airlines is an everyday administrative act, for which the approval of the General Meeting is not needed given that the president of the CCI has broad power, including the right to sign agreements on behalf of the CCI.
I tillægskontrakten fastsættes det, at de marketingydelser, der skal leveres fra 2007, skal være i overensstemmelse med basiskontrakten.
Agreement of 11 April 2000 between the CCI and Ryanair
Leveringen af marketingydelser blev suspenderet fra april og juli 2006 indtil den 31. december 2006, fordi CCI ikke kunne levere de marketingmedier, der skulle figurere på Ryanairs websted.
An initial agreement, signed on 11 April 2000 between the CCI and Ryanair for a term of 10 years, set the amount of the airport charges applicable to Ryanair.
Efter den endelige opgørelse skylder CCI følgende beløb for 2006:
The airline also undertook in that agreement to serve Nîmes airport daily.
[…] EUR i stedet for […] EUR, jf. pakke nr. 1
According to France, an oral commitment to a load factor of 70 % was made, which was seemingly exceeded by 10 percentage points.
