"Artikel 3, stk. 1, i Rådets direktiv 79/7/EØF af 19. december 1978 om gradvis gennemførelse af princippet om ligebehandling af mænd og kvinder med hensyn til social sikring skal fortolkes således, at den ikke omfatter en ordning om boligtilskud, som beregnes på grundlag af forholdet mellem en beregnet indkomst for modtageren og dennes faktiske indkomst, selv om der ved fastlæggelsen af den beregnede indkomst anvendes kriterier vedrørende beskyttelse mod visse af de af direktivet omfattede risici, såsom sygdom og invaliditet."
"Article 3(1) of Council Directive 79/7/EEC of 19 December 1978 on the progressive implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women in matters of social security must be interpreted as not applying to a scheme for housing benefit the amount of which is calculated on the basis of the relationship between a notional income to which the beneficiary is deemed to be entitled and his or her actual income, even if criteria concerning protection against some of the risks listed by the directive, such as sickness or invalidity, are applied in order to determine the amount of the notional income.''
Generaladvokat Giuseppe Tesauro fremsatte forslag til afgørelse i retsmødet (Sjette Afdeling) den 20. november 1991.
Mr Advocate General Tesauro delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Sixth Chamber on 20 November 1991.
Han forslog følgende besvarelse:
He proposed that the Court should rule as follows:
"l.a) En ydelse som forhøjet pensionstillæg, der er aldersbetinget og betinget af, at ansøgeren er invalid, er en form for social bistand, der er bestemt til at supplere en lovbestemt ordning i henhold til artikel 3, stk. 1, litra b), i direktiv 79/7.
A benefit such as the higher pensioner premium which is linked to the age and invalidity of the person benefitting therefrom is a form of social assistance intended to supplement a statutory scheme within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of Directive 79/7.
l.b) Den omstændighed, at en af betingelserne for at få udbetalt forhøjet pensionstillæg, er, at der oppebæres en ydelse (invalidepension), som ophører ved opnåelse af en pensionsalder, der er forskellig for mænd og kvinder, er ikke en nødvendig følge i henhold til direktivets artikel 7, stk. 1, litra a). 2.
The fact that one of the conditions for entitlement to the benefits of the higher pensioner premium consists in a benefit (invalidity pension) discontinuation of which is tied to the different pensionable ages for men and for women is not a "necessary consequence" within the meaning of Article 7(1)(a) of the directive.
"Statsstøtte - beslutning om forenelighed med fællesmarkedet - ikke efter kommet - beslutning om tilbagesøgning" (Domstolens plenum)
The automatic discontinuance of the invalidity pension five years after reaching pensionable age, inasmuch as it is linked to the different ages set for retirement, is not a necessary consequence of the different ages at which entitlement to an oldage pension arises."
Senere konstaterede Kommissionen, at den britiske regering havde ydet BAe og RG visse økonomiske fordele, der ikke var omfattet af beslutning 89/58.
The Commission subsequently discovered that the United Kingdom Government had granted British Aerospace and Rover Group a number of financial concessions which were not covered by Decision 89/58.
Da Kommissionen fandt, at disse yderligere indrømmelser måtte anses for at være støtte i den i Traktatens artikel 92, stk. 1, omhandlede betydning, samt at denne var uforenelig med fællesmarkedet, da den var blevet ydet i strid med artikel 1 i beslutning 89/58, vedtog Kommissionen den anfægtede retsakt.
The Commission took the view that the additional concessions constituted aid for the purposes of Article 92(1) of the Treaty and that they were incompatible with the common market since they had been granted in breach of Article 1 of Decision 89/58. The Commission therefore adopted the contested measure.
Domstolen udtalte, at såfremt Kommissionen var af den opfattelse, at den britiske regering ikke havde overholdt visse betingelser i relation til beslutning 89/58, burde den have indbragt sagen mod Det Forenede Kongerige direkte for Domstolen, jf. artikel 93, stk. 2, andet afsnit.
The Court took the view that if the Commission considered that the United Kingdom had not complied with certain conditions laid down by Decision 89/58, it ought to have instituted proceedings against the United Kingdom directly before the Court by virtue of the second subparagraph of Article 93(2).
Såfremt Kommissionen fandt, at den britiske regering havde udbetalt støtte ud over, hvad der var taget stilling til under den procedure, der havde ført til vedtagelsen af beslutning 89/58, var den forpligtet til at indlede den særlige procedure, der omhandles i artikel 93, stk. 2, først afsnit, samt til at give de interesserede parter en frist til at fremsætte deres bemærkninger.
The Court also held that if the Commission considered that the United Kingdom had paid new aid which had not been examined under the procedure leading to the adoption of Decision 89/58, it was obliged to institute the special procedure provided for by the first subparagraph of Article 93(2) and give notice to the parties concerned to submit their comments.
Kommissionen skal ganske vist i forbindelse med vurderingen af en stats støttes forenelighed med fællesmarkedet skal tage alle relevante forhold i betragtning, herunder i givet fald forhold, der allerede er taget stilling til ved en tidligere beslutning, samt forpligtelser, en medlemsstat herved er blevet pålagt.
While it was true that the Commission, when examining the compatibility of State aid with the common market, was required to take into account all relevant matters, including in appropriate
En sådan vurdering skal imidlertid ske således, at de procedurer, der er foreskrevet i Traktaten, overholdes.
cases the circumstances already considered in any previous decision and any obligations which that previous decision might have Imposed on a Member State, such an examination had to be made in accordance with the procedures laid down by the Treaty.
Kommissionens beslutning af 17. juli 1990 annulleres i det omfang, Det Forenede Kongerige herved pålægges at kræve tilbagebetaling af et beløb på 44,4 mio. pund sterling, der betragtes som statsstøtte.
The Commission decision of 17 July 1990 is annulled in so far as it requires the United Kingdom to recover £44.4 million of alleged State aid;
Generaladvokat Walter Van Gerven fremsatte forslag til afgørelse i retsmødet (Domstolens plenum) den 10. december 1991.
Mr Advocate General Van Gerven delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Full Court on 10 December 1991.
"Kommissionens beslutning, som indeholdt i skrivelse af 27. juni 1990, annulleres som følge af inkompetence eller tilsidesættelse af væsentlige formkrav - for så vidt som det ved beslutningen pålægges Det Forenede Kongerige at fremsætte krav over for sagsøgerne om tilbagebetaling af et beløb på 44,4 mio. pund sterling - samt at Kommissionen pålægges at betale sagens omkostninger."

Mr Advocate General Lenz delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Full Court on 19 September 1991.
Han foreslog Domstolen
He proposed that the Court should:
"at give Kommissionen medhold og at fastslå, at Kongeriget Belgien - ved at foretage tilbageholdelse af sygesikringsbidrag i tillægspensionsydelser eller andre tillægsydelser til lovbestemte alders-, arbejdsophørs- eller efterladtepensioner til fællesskabsborgere, der er bosat i en anden med lemsstat og er berettiget til ydelser ved sygdom efter denne stats lovgivning - har undladt at opfylde de forpligtelser, som påhviler det i henhold til forordning (EØF) nr. 1408/71.
"Accept the conclusions of the Commission and hold that, by deducting sickness insurance contributions from supplementary retirement benefits or any other benefits taking the place of a statutory oldage, retirement, service or survivor's pension for Community nationals residing in another Member State under whose legislation they are entitled to sickness benefits, the Kingdom of Belgium has failed to fulfil its obligations under Regulation (EEC) No. 1408/71. The defendant in the present case should also be ordered to pay the costs."
Sagsøgte bør i denne sag ligeledes pålægges at betale sagens omkostninger."

Before the Court of Justice
Ved stævninger indleveret den 2. og den 15. marts 1990 havde Kongeriget Nederlandene, hhv. selskaberne Koninklijke PTT Nederland NV og PTT Post BV, anlagt sag med påstand om annullation af Kommissionens beslutning 90/16/EØF af 20. december 1989 om ydelse af kurerservice i Nederlandene.
By applications lodged on 2 and 15 March 1990 the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Koninklijke PTT Nederland NV and PTT Post BV sought the annulment of Commission Decision 90/16/EEC of 20 December 1989 concerning the provision in the Netherlands of express delivery services.
Denne beslutning, som var rettet til Nederlandene, gik ud på, at bestemmelserne i § 2 og 12 i den nederlandske postlov af 26. oktober 1988 om udøvelse af posttjeneste i forbindelse med bestemmelserne i gennemførelsesbekendtgørelsen af 19. december 1988, som forbeholder postvæsenet retten til at yde kurerservice med indsamling, befordring og omdeling af breve på højst 500 gr til en pris på under 11,9 HFL for forsendelser til andre EF-lande og en pris på 17,5 HFL for forsendelser til lande uden for EF, og de bestemmelser om, at alle takster forinden skal registreres, som er indeholdt i bekendtgørelsen af 12. maj 1989, er uforenelige med EØF-Traktatens artikel 90, stk. 1, sammenholdt med samme Traktats artikel 86.
That decision, which was addressed to the Netherlands, states that the provisions of Articles 2 and 12 of the Netherlands law of 26 October 1988 on postal services, in conjunction with the provisions of the implementing order of 19 December 1988 which imposes a maximum charge of HFL 11.9 on the collection, transport and distribution to addresses within the Community of letters up to 500 grammes and HFL 17.5 for addresses outside the Community and the requirement under the order of 12 May 1989 that the tariff should be previously registered were incompatible with Article 90(1) of the EEC Treaty in conjunction with Article 86.
Desuden havde Kommissionen forklaret, hvordan postloven førte til misbrug af PTT Post BV's dominerende stilling.
Furthermore, the Commission explained why the postal law led to an abuse of the dominant position of the PTT Post BV.
Kongeriget Nederlandene og de sagsøgende selskaber fremførte en række anbringender til støtte for annullationspåstanden, i det væsentlige at Kommissionen ikke havde kompetence til at udstede den anfægtede beslutning i henhold til Traktatens artikel 90, stk. 3, at Kommissionen havde tilsidesat retten til kontradiktion, tilsidesat væsentlige formkrav, ikke givet en tilstrækkelig begrundelse for den anfægtede beslutning samt tilsidesat Traktatens artikel 86 og 90, stk. 1 og 2.
The Kingdom of the Netherlands and the PTT pleaded that the decision should be declared void on the ground that the Commission had no power to adopt it under Article 90(3) of the Treaty, the Commission had not given the defence a fair hearing, breach of essential procedural requirements, failure to state sufficient reasons and infringement of Articles 86 and 90(1) and (2) of the Treaty.
Domstolen udtalte, at ifølge artikel 90, stk. 3, skal Kommissionen påse, at medlemmsstaterne overholder de forpligtelser, som påhviler dem med hensyn til de i artikel 90, stk. 1, nævnte virksomheder, og giver den udtrykkeligt kompetence til at gribe ind i denne forbindelse ved to retlige instrumenter af forskellig art, nemlig direktiver og beslutninger.
Article 90(3) requires the Commission to ensure that Member States observe the obligations imposed on them in relation to the undertakings referred to in Article 90(1) and give the Commission express power to intervene for that
udførelsen af den særlige opgave, som er overdraget en virksomhed, hvis denne er pålagt at udføre tjenesteydelser af almindelig økonomisk interesse.
The powers which Article 90(3) authorizes the Commission to exercise by way of decisions are different from those which it may exercise by way of directives.
