Punkt 60: gennemsigtighed.
According to RAS, it can be drawn from the case law that the application of the principle of non-discrimination is precluded, provided that the control exercised over the operator by a public authority is similar to that which the authority exercises over its own departments and the operator carries out the essential part of its activities with the controlling authority.
RAS har hverken gennemført en offentlig høring eller offentliggjort de påkrævede oplysninger vedrørende PSO'erne og den kompensation, der er udbetalt på forhånd for opfyldelsen heraf.
It would appear that indeed Saremar acts on behalf of RAS as an instrument for the implementation of RAS's maritime transport and regional development policies.
Som beskrevet ovenfor var der ikke oprindeligt fastsat nogen kompensation, idet tjenesterne blev anset for at være kommercielt levedygtige.
It is however unclear whether that circumstance can justify the direct and exclusive award of compensation to Saremar.
I henhold til punkt 21 i SGEI-rammebestemmelserne fra 2012 »må kompensationsbeløbet ikke overstige, hvad der er nødvendigt til at dække de nettoomkostninger, der er forbundet med at opfylde forpligtelserne til offentlig tjeneste, herunder en rimelig fortjeneste«.
In any event, the Commission does not need to decide on this issue for the purpose of this case, given that the aid measure does not comply with the 2011 SGEI Decision.
I overensstemmelse med punkt 24 i SGEI-rammebestemmelserne fra 2012 skal de nettoomkostninger, der er nødvendige for opfyldelsen af PSO'er, beregnes på grundlag af en sammenligning af tjenesteleverandørens situation med og uden de forpligtelser til offentlig tjeneste, der skal opfyldes.
Applicability of the 2011 SGEI Decision
Der blev ikke foretaget en sådan beregning i dette tilfælde.
The 2011 SGEI Decision only applies to aid under the form of public service compensation in connection to genuine SGEI services.
Endelig er gennemsigtighedsforpligtelserne ikke blevet overholdt.
On the basis of the grounds developed in recitals 180-218 above, the Commission concludes that RAS has neither demonstrated to the required legal standards the existence of a real public service need justifying the imposition of public service obligations on the routes in question, nor that those obligations were sufficiently precise.
Følgelig konkluderer Kommissionen, at den kompensation, der er ydet til Saremar for driften af tjenesterne, er uforenelig med det indre marked i henhold til SGEI-rammebestemmelserne fra 2011.
Consequently, the subsidy granted to Saremar for the operation of the two routes cannot be considered as compatible aid pursuant to the 2011 SGEI Decision.
I løbet af undersøgelsen har RAS fremført to hovedargumenter for så vidt angår rekapitaliseringen: For det første, at foranstaltningen kun var blevet gennemført delvist, og for det andet, at den vedrørte finansiering, som Saremar var lovligt berettiget til.
In any event, in order to be deemed compatible and exempted from the notification requirement by virtue of the 2011 SGEI Decision, the operation of a SGEI necessarily has to be entrusted by way of one or more acts, laying down:
Ikke desto mindre vurderer Kommissionen, at Saremar kan kvalificeres som en kriseramt virksomhed i henhold til retningslinjerne for redning og omstrukturering og derfor er berettiget til at modtage omstruktureringsstøtte.
The content and duration of the PSOs;
Rekapitaliseringen udgør omstruktureringsstøtte, der skal vurderes i henhold til retningslinjerne for redning og omstrukturering med henblik på at fastslå, hvorvidt den kan være forenelig med det indre marked i henhold til artikel 107, stk. 3, TEUF.
The undertaking and, where applicable, the territory concerned;
Eftersom forenelighedskriterierne i henhold til retningslinjerne for redning og omstrukturering ikke er opfyldt (se navnlig de grunde, der er angivet i betragtning 272-279), konkluderer Kommissionen, at den kompensation, der er udbetalt til Saremar, udgør uforenelig omstruktureringsstøtte til en kriseramt virksomhed.
The nature of any exclusive or special rights assigned to the undertaking;
Foranstaltningen kan derfor anses for at være forenelig med det indre marked.
A description of the compensation mechanism and the parameters for calculating, controlling and reviewing the compensation;
KONKLUSION
The arrangements for avoiding and recovering any overcompensation;
Følgende foranstaltninger, der blev gennemført af RAS til fordel for Saremar, udgør statsstøtte, der er uforenelig med det indre marked:
A reference to the 2011 SGEI Decision.
Kompensationen på 10 mio. EUR for driften af de to yderligere ruter, som forbinder Sardinien med fastlandet, ydet ved regional lov 15 af 7. august 2012 og udbetalt til Saremar i to rater den 6. november 2012 og den 3. december 2012
It is manifest that in this case the entrustment acts do not meet the requirements under letter (d), (e) and (f), above.
Rekapitaliseringen på 6099961 EUR, som blev besluttet den 15. juni 2012 (heraf 824309,69 EUR, der blev udbetalt den 11. juli 2012).
Therefore, the aid in question cannot be considered as compatible on the basis of the 2011 SGEI Decision.
Betalingen af salgsfremmende foranstaltninger og støtteerklæringerne indebærer ikke statsstøtte til Saremar.
According to RAS, the measure has been defined in its main elements before the entry into force of the new SGEI package and, therefore, the 2005 SGEI Decision, rather than the 2011 SGEI Decision, would be applicable for the purpose of compatibility assessment.
De pågældende støtteforanstaltninger er uforenelige med det indre marked.
However, in this case the compensation was granted only in August 2012 by Regional Law 15 of 7 August 2012 and therefore does not pre-date the entry into force of the 2011 SGEI Decision.
Italien har ulovligt gennemført de pågældende støtteforanstaltninger i strid med artikel 108, stk. 3, i TEUF.
RAS's argument is therefore untenable.
Hvis Kommissionen har konstateret, at en støtteforanstaltning er uforenelig med det indre marked, er den i henhold til TEUF og Domstolens faste retspraksis bemyndiget til at afgøre, at den pågældende medlemsstat skal ophæve eller ændre foranstaltningen.
In conclusion, aid to Saremar cannot be deemed compatible and exempted from the notification requirement on the basis of the 2011 SGEI Decision.
Ifølge Domstolens faste retspraksis skal en stats forpligtelse til at ophæve den støtte, som Kommissionen anser for at være uforenelig med det indre marked, desuden føre til genetablering af den tidligere situation.
In any event, given the absence of any provision setting a compensation for the operation of the two routes, and of the arrangements for avoiding and recovering any overcompensation, the compensation in question cannot be considered compatible and exempted from the notification requirement on the basis of the 2005 SGEI Decision either.
Domstolen har i den forbindelse slået fast, at dette mål er nået, når modtageren har tilbagebetalt de beløb, der blev ydet i form af ulovlig støtte, og dermed mister den fordel, vedkommende havde i forhold til sine konkurrenter på markedet, og situationen forud for udbetalingen af støtten er genoprettet.
Saremar is an undertaking in difficulty within the meaning of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines
I overensstemmelse med retspraksis fastsættes i artikel 14 i Rådets forordning (EF) nr. 659/1999, at »i negative beslutninger om ulovlig støtte bestemmer Kommissionen, at den pågældende medlemsstat skal træffe alle nødvendige foranstaltninger til at kræve støtten tilbagebetalt fra støttemodtageren«.
For the reasons set out below, the Commission considers that Saremar can be considered as an undertaking in difficulty within the meaning of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines at the time the compensation in question was granted to it.
Eftersom de i betragtning 300 identificerede foranstaltninger anses for at være ulovlig og uforenelig statsstøtte, skal det allerede ydede støttebeløb i forbindelse med disse foranstaltninger, dvs. 10824309,69 EUR, tilbagebetales for at genoprette markedssituationen, som den var, før støtten blev ydet.
According to point 9 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines, a firm is regarded to be in difficulty if it is unable to recover through its own resources or by rising the funds it needs from shareholders or on the market, and if without the intervention of public authorities it will almost certainly go out of business.
Denne afgørelse hverken vedrører eller foregriber andre problemstillinger, der er omfattet af 2011- og 2012-afgørelserne, eller som Kommissionen af interesserede parter er blevet orienteret om i løbet af den undersøgelse, der er indledt i henhold til disse afgørelser —
In particular, according to point 10 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines a firm is regarded to be in difficulty:
VEDTAGET DENNE AFGØRELSE:
in the case of a limited liability company, where more than half of its registered capital has disappeared and more than one quarter of that capital has been lost over the preceding 12 months;
Artikel 1
when in a case of a company where at least some members have unlimited liability for the debt of the company, where more than half of its capital as shown in the company accounts has disappeared and more than one quarter has been lost in the preceding 12 months;
Statsstøtteforanstaltningerne til fordel for Saremar, som består af kompensation for offentlig tjeneste ved regional lov 15 af 7. august 2012 og af en kapitalindsprøjtning, der blev besluttet af Saremars aktionærforsamling den 15. juni 2012 er uforenelig med det indre marked.
whatever type of company concerned, where it fulfils the criteria under its domestic law for being the subject of collective insolvency proceedings.
Støtteforanstaltningen blev ulovligt gennemført af Italien i strid med artikel 108, stk. 3, i traktaten om den Europæiske Unions funktionsmåde.
Point 11 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines provides that even when none of the circumstances set out in point 10 are present, a firm may still be considered as being in difficulty and lists some of the usual signs of such a situation, such as: increasing losses, diminishing turnover, growing stock inventories, excess capacity, declining cash flow, mounting debt, rising interest charges and falling or nil asset value.
Artikel 2
Saremar had a EUR 5253530 loss in 2010.
Italien skal tilbagesøge den uforenelige støtte, der henvises til i artikel 1, stk. 1, fra støttemodtageren.
Despite the fact that the company experienced a EUR 2523439 profit in 2011 this result was not enough to cover the losses incurred in 2010.
Der betales renter af de beløb, som skal tilbagebetales, fra den dato, hvor de blev stillet til rådighed for støttemodtageren, frem til den dato, hvor de rent faktisk tilbagebetales.
In fact the 2010 losses were twice higher than the 2011 surplus.
Renten beregnes med renters rente i overensstemmelse med kapitel V i Kommissionens forordning (EF) nr. 794/2004 og Kommissionens forordning (EF) nr. 271/2008 om ændring af forordning (EF) nr. 794/2004.
The 2010 loss was carried over to 2012 and covered by a reduction in the company's capital from EUR 6099961 to EUR 1209010,64.
Artikel 3
Therefore, in 2011 Saremar lost over 80 % of its capital and must be regarded as a company in difficulties under point 10 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
Tilbagesøgningen af den i artikel 1 omhandlede støtte iværksættes omgående og effektivt.
Based on Saremar's 2012 balance sheet the company still recorded a EUR 1,7 million loss in 2012.
Italien skal sikre, at denne afgørelse gennemføres inden for fire måneder efter dens meddelelse.
As mentioned in recital 157 above, the Commission notes that Saremar itself considered its financial situation in 2012 as critical.
Artikel 4
This state of facts has been reflected by Decision 41/23/EC adopted by RAS on 15 October 2012.
Inden for to måneder fra meddelelsen af denne afgørelse skal Italien fremsende følgende oplysninger til Kommissionen:
The Decision mentioned a Note dated 4 October 2012 submitted by Saremar's President, by which the latter informed RAS, inter alia, that unless the provisions of Regional Law 15 of 7 August 2012 laying down a EUR 10 million subsidy to the company were immediately enforced, the company's indebtedness would call into question the continuity of its activity, with significant impact on both the public service and on the envisaged privatisation of the company.
det samlede beløb (hovedstol og renter), der skal tilbagebetales af støttemodtageren
Given the continuous losses, the liquidity problems and the analysis made by Saremar itself, the Commission concludes that the company must be considered a company in difficulty also on the basis of point 11 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
en detaljeret beskrivelse af allerede trufne og planlagte foranstaltninger med henblik på at efterkomme denne afgørelse
In 2012, the financial difficulties of the Saremar were eased by the grating in November/December 2012 of the compensation subject to the current assessment.
dokumentation for, at støttemodtageren har fået påbud om at tilbagebetale støtten.
Had Saremar not received these sums it would have recorded a EUR 13 million loss in 2012.
Italien skal holde Kommissionen orienteret om fremskridt med hensyn til de trufne nationale foranstaltninger med henblik på gennemførelse af denne afgørelse, indtil der er sket tilbagebetaling af den i artikel 1 omhandlede støtte.
According to point 9 of the 2011 SGEI Framework, SGEI compensation granted to firms in difficulty must be assessed under the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
Ved simpel anmodning fra Kommissionen skal Italien øjeblikkeligt fremsende oplysninger om allerede trufne og planlagte foranstaltninger med henblik på at leve op til krave i denne afgørelse.
Given that the conditions set out in the 2011 SGEI Decision are not fulfilled, the compensation received by Saremar in difficulty for the operation of the two routes in question must be assessed under the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines, in order to establish whether it may be declared compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 107(3) TFEU.
Der skal også gives detaljerede oplysninger om de støttebeløb og renter, som allerede er inddrevet fra støttemodtageren.
The company did not receive any rescue or restructuring aid in last 10 years.
Artikel 5
Hence, the Commission finds that the company complies with the ‘one time, last time’ principle, as set out in point 72 et seq. of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
Denne afgørelse er rettet til Republikken Italien.
However, all the conditions laid down in the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines must be respected for State aid to a company in difficulty to be considered compatible with the internal market in accordance with Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Udfærdiget i Bruxelles, den 22. januar 2014.
First, pursuant to point 13 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines a firm belonging to a larger business group is not normally eligible for restructuring aid, except where it can be demonstrated that the firm's difficulties are its own and are not the result of an arbitrary allocation of costs within the group, and that the difficulties are too serious to be dealt with by the group itself.
Næstformand
Second, in order to consider a measure compatible under points 34 - 37 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines, the restructuring plan has to analyse in detail the problems which have led to the difficulties and to set out the means by which to restore the long-term viability and health of the firm within a reasonable timescale.
EUT C 28 af 1.2.2012, s. 18, og EUT C 84 af 22.3.2013, s. 58.
This has to be done on the basis of realistic assumptions as to future operating conditions with scenarios reflecting best-case, worst-case and intermediate assumptions and the firm's specific strengths and weaknesses.
EUT C 28 af 1.2.2012, s. 18.
The plan must be submitted in all relevant detail to the Commission and include, in particular, a market survey.
EUT C 84 af 22.3.2013, s. 58.
It is true that RAS submitted Saremar's business plan for the period 2011 - 2022, however that plan does not comply with the requirements of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines.
Fintecna ejes 100 % af det italienske finans- og økonomiministerium og er specialiseret i forvaltning af egenkapital og privatiseringsprocesser samt håndtering af projekter med henblik på rationalisering og omstrukturering af virksomheder med industrielle, finansielle eller organisatoriske vanskeligheder.
In this case Saremar's business plan was approved in July 2010, before the compensation was granted by RAS and it was not predicated on the idea that such measure would be adopted in favour of Saremar.
I henhold til 2009-loven blev den forretningsdel, som drev forbindelser med Pontino-øhavet, udskilt fra Caremar og overført til regionen Lazio.
The plan was based on the assumption that the company would be partially privatised (RAS initially intended to divest 49 % of its stake in the company) by November 2010 and covered the twelve-year duration of the new public service contract sought to be signed with the buyer at the end of 2010.
Artikel 19b (10) i 2009-loven.
The plan does not present in detail the circumstances leading to the difficulties of the company, nor does it describe the means to restore its long term viability and makes no reference to the operation by Saremar of two links between Sardinia and the mainland.
Sag I743 — Færgepriser til/fra Sardinien, vedrørende private konkurrenters påståede overtrædelse af artikel 101, TEUF (Onorato Participazioni S.r.l., Moby S.p.A., Marinsvest S.r.l., Investitori Associati SGR S.p.A., Grandi Navi Veloci S.p.A., SNAV S.p.A., Lotta Maritime S.A., Forship S.p.A, Clessidra SGR S.p.A. og L19 S.p.A.) på visse ruter, som forbinder Sardinien med fastlandet.
On this basis the Commission considers that the measure has not been conditioned on the implementation of a business plan fulfilling the requirements of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines, which is sufficient to exclude its compatibility with the internal market.
Daglig forbindelse fra 1. april 2012.
Third, measures must be taken to ensure that the aid's adverse effects on trading conditions are mitigated as far as possible.

This usually means a limitation of the presence which the company can enjoy on its markets at the end of the restructuring period.
SNAV drev ruten Olbia-Civitavecchia indtil maj 2011, hvor GNV overtog driften.
The compensatory measures should be in proportion to the distortive effects of the aid and, in particular, to the size and relative importance of the firm on its market or markets.

The degree of compensatory measures must be established on a case-by-case basis and with regard to the objective of restoring the long-term-viability of the firm.
NCA-beslutning nr. 24033 af 31. oktober 2012, SP136 — Saremar — Sardegna Regionale Marittima/ruterne Civitavecchia-Golfo degli Aranci og Vado Ligure-Porto Torres.
Moreover, according to point 7 of the Rescue and Restructuring Guidelines the Commission will request compensatory measures which minimise the effect on competitors.
CIN blev oprettet i november 2010 af Grimaldi, Marinvest og Moby for at deltage i udbuddet med henblik på køb af Tirrenia.
RAS did not propose any compensatory measure in compensation for the potential distortion of competition caused by the granting of the aid.
I starten af 2011 købte Marinvest (kontrollerer SNAV) kontrollen over GNV; og desuden overførte Moby i marts 2011 sin aktiepost i CIN til dens kontrollerende aktionær Onorato Participazioni.
Fourth, the aid must be limited to the strict minimum, necessary to enable the restructuring.
I marts 2011 var CIN's hovedaktionærer Onorato Participazioni (kontrollerer Moby) og Marinvest (kontrollerer GNV og SNAV).
The beneficiary is expected to make a significant contribution to the restructuring plan from its own resources, including the sale of assets not essential to the company's survival, or from external financing at market conditions.
Rådets forordning (EF) nr. 139/2004 af 20. januar 2004 om kontrol med virksomhedssammenslutninger, (»fusionsforordningen«) ( EUT L 24 af 29.1.2004, s. 1).
Such contribution must be real, i.e. actual, excluding all future profits such as cash flow, and is a sign that the markets believe in the feasibility of the return to viability of the company.
Ved beslutning nr. 23650 af 21. juni 2012, C11613, godkendte NCA betinget CIN's køb af Tirrenia forretningsdelen, som ejes i fællesskab af Moby (40 %), L19 (30 %), Gruppo Investimenti Portuali S.p.A.
In this case no own contribution was foreseen.
(20 %) og Shipping Investment S.r.l.
The Commission concludes that the subsidy granted to Saremar to cover the deficit resulted from the operation in 2011 and 2012 of the two routes to mainland Italy constitutes incompatible aid to Saremar in difficulty.
NCA havde pålagt visse betingelser, bl.a. vedrørende ikke-anvendelse af code sharing-aftaler mellem Moby og CIN i perioden 2012-2016 og anvendelsen på ruterne Civitavecchia-Olbia, Genova-Porto Torres og Genova-Olbia af takster med henblik på at fastholde den gennemsnitlige enhedsfortjeneste, der blev opnået af Moby i sommersæsonen 2009 (undtagen den forhøjelse, der direkte kunne knyttes til en stigning i bunkeromkostningerne).
For the sake of completeness, the Commission has also checked if the aid in question would have been compatible with the 2011 SGEI Framework had Saremar not been a company in difficulty at the moment it was granted.
CIN/Tirrenia overtager driften fra Moby på ruten Genova-Porto Torres.
Genuine service of general economic interest as referred to in Article 106 of the Treaty
På ruten Civitavecchia-Olbia vil Moby og CIN overføre 10 % af kapaciteten til andre redere i sommersæsonen 2013 og 2014.
As indicated in paragraph 56 of the 2011 SGEI Framework, Member States have a wide margin of discretion regarding the nature of services that could be classified as SGEIs.
SNAV har traditionelt drevet ruten indtil maj 2011.
The Commission's task is to ensure that the margin of discretion is applied without manifest error as regards the definition of the SGEI.
NCA-beslutning nr. 24418 af 18. juni 2013, C11613B.
On the basis of the grounds developed under recitals 188 - 210, the Commission considers that this condition has not been observed in this case.

In accordance with section 2.3 of the 2011 SGEI Framework, the concept of SGEI within the meaning of Article 106 TFEU means that the undertaking in question has been entrusted with the operation of the SGEI by way of one or more official acts.
