Kommissionens initiativer med henblik på Fællesskabets indgåelse af internationale luftfartsaftaler
Advocate General A Tizzano delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Full Court on 31 January 2002.
Kommissionen fremsatte derefter den 23. oktober 1992 på ny et forslag til beslutning, der indeholdt mindre ændringer. De to forslag havde hjemmel i EF-traktatens artikel 113 (efter ændring nu artikel 133 EF), idet Kommissionen fandt, at indgåelsen af internationale aftaler på luftfartsområdet var omfattet af anvendelsesområdet for Fællesskabets handelspolitik.
(Failure by a Member State to fulfil its obligations — Conclusion and application by a Member State of a bilateral open skies agreement with the United States of America — Secondary legislation governing the internal air transport market (Regulations (EEC) Nos 2299/89, 2407/92, 2408/92, 2409/92 and 95/93) - External competence of the Community —Article 52 of the EC Treaty (now, after amendment, Article 43 EC) —Article 5 of the EC Treaty (now Article 10 EC)) (Full Court)
Det var derimod udtrykkeligt præciseret, at mandatet ikke omfattede forhandlinger vedrørende markedsadgang (herunder »code sharing« og leasing, for så vidt som der herved var tale om trafikrettigheder), kapacitet, udpegning af luftfartsselskaber samt priser.
Both proposals were based on Article 113 of the EC Treaty (now, after amendment, Article 133 EC), because the Commission took the view that the conclusion of international air transport agreements fell within the sphere of the commercial policy of the Community.
11993 og 1994 styrkede USA bestræbelserne for at indgå bilaterale luftfartsaftaler efter »open skies«-modellen med så mange europæiske lande som muligt.
It set out its position on the subject in its Conclusions of 15 March 1993, in which it indicated as follows:
Der er til dato ikke indgået nogen aftale med USA som følge af det forhandlingsmandat, Kommissionen blev tillagt i 1996.
Article 84(2) of the Treaty constituted the proper legal basis for the development of an external policy on aviation;
I en skrivelse af 17. november 1994 til medlemsstaterne fremhævede Kommissionen de negative virkninger, sådanne bilaterale aftaler ville medføre for Fællesskabet, og erklærede, at denne form for aftaler ville berøre Fællesskabets interne lovgivning. Kommissionen tilføjede, at forhandlinger om sådanne aftaler retligt set kun kunne føres på fællesskabsplan og kun således blive effektive.
— in the alternative, in relation to part of its principal claim, a declaration that, in so far as the 1994 and 1996 agreements cannot be regarded as having radically amended and thus replaced the agreements previously concluded, the Federal Republic of Germany has, by not rescinding those provisions of the said previously-concluded agreements which are incompatible with the EC Treaty, especially Article 52 thereof, and with secondary law, or by failing to take all legally possible steps to that end, failed, in relation to the agreements concluded before the EC Treaty entered into force, to comply with its obligations under Article 234 of the EC Treaty (now, after amendment, Article 307 EC) and, in relation to the agreements concluded after the entry into force of the Treaty, with its obligations under secondary law.
Den 29. februar 19% nåede repræsentanter for den tyske og den amerikanske regering til enighed om at ændre 1955aftalen.
Background to the dispute the Member States retained their full powers in relations with third countries in the aviation sector, subject to measures already adopted or to be adopted by the Council in that domain.
Den 23. maj 1996 undertegnede Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland og USA en protokol om ændring af 1955-aftalen (herefter »ændringsprotokollen af 1996«). Fra det tidspunkt har overgangsordningen af 1994 været suspenderet.
In this regard, it was also emphasised that, in the course of bilateral negotiations, the Member States concerned should take due account of their obligations under Community law and should keep themselves informed of the interests of the other Member States;
Derimod fremgår det af sagen, at Fællesskabet i 1992 indgik en aftale med Kongeriget Norge og Kongeriget Sverige om civil luftfart. Denne aftale blev godkendt ved Rådets afgørelse 92/384/EØF af 22. juni 1992.
The Commüsion's initiatives with a view to the conclusion by the Community of international air transport agreements
Fællesskabet har endvidere indgået en principaftale herom med Schweiz, og på det tidspunkt, hvor denne sag blev anlagt, var Fællesskabet ved at forhandle med tolv europæiske lande om en aftale om indførelse af et »fælleseuropæisk luftfartsområde«.
Towards the end of the Second World War or shortly thereafter, several States which subsequently became members of the Community, including the Federal Republic of Germany, concluded bilateral agreements on air transport with the United States of America.
Den bilaterale luftfartsaftale, der er indgået mellem Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland og USA
negotiations at Community level with third countries could be conducted only if the Council deemed such an approach to be in accordance with the common interest, on the basis that they were likely to produce a better result for the Member States as a whole than the traditional system of bilateral agreements.
Den 7. juli 1955 blev der indgået en bilateral aftale på luftfartsområdet mellem Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland og USA Aftalen blev ændret i 1978 og i 1989 (herefter »1955aftalen«).
Wishing to replace that set of bilateral agreements by a single agreement to be concluded between the Community and the United States of America, the European Commission has since the early 1990s repeatedly sought to obtain from the Council a mandate to negotiate an air transport agreement of that kind with the American authorities.
De to lande besluttede i begyndelsen af 1990'erne at genforhandle 1955aftalen.
Thus, on 23 February 1990 the Commission submitted to the Council a first request to that effect in the form of a proposal for a Council decision on a consultation and authorisation procedure for agreements concerning commercial aviation relations between Member States and third countries.
Ved en aftale, der blev indgået den 24. maj 1994, blev
That was followed, on 23 October 1992, by a second, slightly modified,
I henhold til ændringsprotokollen af 1996 blev der foretaget følgende ændringer af 1955aftalen.
In April 1995, the Commission raised the matter once more, recommending the adoption by the Council of a decision authorising it to negotiate an air transport agreement with the United States of America.
I selve aftalen blev artikel 1 (Definitioner), artikel 2 (Tilståelse af trafikrettigheder), artikel 3 (Udpegelse og bemyndigelse), artikel 4 (Tilbagekaldelse af bemyndigelse), artikel 6 (Flyvesikkerhed), artikel 7 (Told og afgifter), artikel 8 (Fair konkurrence), artikel 9 (Forretningsmæssige muligheder), artikel 10 (Prisfastsættelse), artikel 11 (Beskyttelse af luftfarten) og artikel 12 (Konsultationer) ændret
Following that latest request, in June 1996 the Council gave the Commission a limited mandate to negotiate with that country, in liaison with a special committee appointed by the Council, in relation to the following matters: competition rules; ownership and control of air carriers; computerised reservation systems (hereinafter 'CRSs'); code-sharing; dispute resolution; leasing; environmental clauses and transitional measures. In the event of a request from the United States to that effect, authorisation was granted to extend the
marked på dette område, og at medlemsstaterne som følge deraf ikke længere havde kompetence til at indgå bilaterale aftaler.
Germany and the United States of America on 7 Jury 1955, and amended in 1978 and 1989 ('the 1955 Agreement').
Endvidere var ændringsprotokollen af 1996 ifølge Kommissionen i strid med den primære og den afledte fællesskabsret.
The two countries decided, in the early 1990s, to renegotiate the 1955 Agreement.
Desuden blev tillæg I og II til 1955aftalen, der vedrører ruter og driftsmuligheder, ændret i overensstemmelse med den amerikanske model for »open skies«-aftalen (f.eks. vedrørende ruter, driftsfleksibilitet, charter-luftbefordring mv.).
On the other hand, it was explicitly stated that the mandate did not cover negotiations concerning market access (including code-sharing and leasing in so far as they related to traffic rights), capacity, carrier designation and pricing.
Den tyske regering bestred i skrivelse af 26. juni 1996Kommissionenssynspunkter.
The documents before the Court show that, in 1992, the United States of America took the initiative in offering to various European States the possibility of concluding a bilateral 'open skies' agreement.
Kommissionen fremsatte herefter den 16. marts 1998 en begrundet udtalelse over for Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland, hvori den konkluderede, at de bilaterale forpligtelser, der var en følge af overgangsordningen af 1994 og af ændringsprotokollen af 1996, udgjorde en tilsidesættelse af fællesskabsretten, ligesom Kommissionen anmodede Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland at efterkomme den begrundede udtalelse inden for en frist på to måneder efter dens meddelelse.
Such an agreement was intended to facilitate alliances between American and European carriers and conform to a number of criteria set out by the American Government such as free access to all routes, the granting of unlimited route and traffic rights, the fixing of prices in accordance with a system of 'mutual disapproval' for air routes between the parties to the agreement, the possibility of sharing codes, etc.
Kommissionen fandt ikke den tyske regerings svarskrivelse af 14. maj 1998 tilfredsstillende og har derfor anlagt nærværende sag.
During 1993 and 1994, the United States of America intensified its efforts to conclude bilateral air transport agreements under the 'open skies' policy with as many European States as possible.
I henhold til artikel 3 i 1955aftalen, som affattet ved ændringsprotokollen af 1996, er hver enkelt kontraherende parts meddelelse af koncessioner og tekniske tilladelser til luftfartsselskaber, som er udpeget af den anden part, betinget af, »at en væsentlig del af ejendomsretten beror hos og den effektive kontrol over det pågældende luftfartsselskab udøves af den part, der har udpeget det, denne parts statsborgere eller begge« (herefter »klausulen vedrørende ejendomsretten til og kontrollen med luftfartsselskaber«).
In one of those declarations, which was made jointly by both institutions ('the common declaration of 1996'), it was stated that, in order to ensure continuity of relations between the Member States and the United States of America during the Community negotiations and in order to have a valid alternative in the event of the negotiations failing, the existing system of bilateral agreements would be maintained and would remain valid until a new agreement binding the Community was concluded.
Ifølge aftalens artikel 4, som affattet ved ændringsprotokollen af 1996, kan de pågældende koncessioner og tilladelser tilbagekaldes, suspenderes eller begrænses, såfremt ovennævnte betingelse ikke er opfyldt.
In a separate declaration, the Commission asserted that Community competence had now been established in respect of air traffic rights.
Indsigelsen om, at der er tale om procedurefordrejning og at Kommissionen ikke har søgsmålsinteresse
No agreement has yet been reached with the United States of America following the conferment of the negotiating mandate on the Commission in 1996.
Ifølge den tyske regering udgør anlæggelsen af den foreliggende sag procedurefordrejning, idet Kommissionen herved forsøger at tilvejebringe en kompetence for Fællesskabet, som den ikke har kunnet få anerkendt ad politisk vej i Rådet, og som den kun burde kunne opnå ved at anlægge sag mod Rådet.
In a letter sent to Member States on 17 November 1994, the Commission drew their attention to the negative effects that such bilateral agreements could have on the Community and stated its position to the effect that that type of agreement was likely to affect internal Community legislation.
