Finally, the United Kingdom points to the fact that the test which the Commission is required to apply on assessing whether the Measures 2 to 5 conform to the MEIP is whether a private shareholder in PCC's position would have been motivated to continue to support the company in these circumstances.
Ent selliseks planeeringu muutmiseks ei saadud luba.
This requires an ex ante, not ex post, assessment based on the information available to PCC at the relevant point in time.
2015/2016. aastal […].
PCC is satisfied that all its support measures were properly considered and weighed up in terms of the likely benefits and risk.
Pärast 18. aprillil 2018 toimunud telefonivestlust esitas Ühendkuningriik veel tõendeid eri võimaluste varasema majandusliku hindamise kohta koos aluseks võetud majandusmudeli meetodite põhjaliku selgitusega.
Nowhere, after its initial acquisition of MMD, has PCC included non-economic criteria in its financial appraisals of MMD (such as local employment, environmental risk or regional policy).
Ühendkuningriigi märkused huvitatud isikute arvamuste kohta
It has at all times behaved as a private shareholder in similar circumstances would have done.
Kaebuse esitaja märkuste kohta andis Ühendkuningriik teada, et need vaid kordavad algatamisotsuses sõnastatud riigiabikahtlusi, esitamata mingeid konkreetseid märkusi ega tõendeid.
Following a meeting with the Commission on 26 April 2017, the United Kingdom provided further details about the evolving circumstances of the MMD business throughout the entire period concerned and indicated what PCC knew at the time of the granting of each support measure.
Ühendkuningriigi seisukoht selliste väidete suhtes oli juba kirjas riigi märkustes algatamisotsuse kohta.
Within each year, key events which impacted on MMD's financial performance were considered to demonstrate that PCC did not ‘blindly’ follow unsupported, over-optimistic forecasts presented by MMD management.
Anonüümse huvitatud isiku märkuste kohta mainis Ühendkuningriik, et ka need vaid kordavad enamikku algatamisotsuses sõnastatud riigiabikahtlusi, esitamata mingeid konkreetseid märkusi ega tõendeid.
On the contrary, the United Kingdom argues that the evidence clearly demonstrates that, as issues arose, they were addressed in a robust, commercially-minded fashion by MMD's management as it moved the business towards future profitability, with entirely appropriate supervision by PCC at the times of key decision-making.
Ent kommenteeriti siiski anonüümse huvitatud isiku esitatud kolme konkreetset arvamust.
This submission by the United Kingdom was supplemented with additional contemporaneous evidence of these economic and commercial ex ante evaluations by MMD and PCC.
Esiteks ei olnud Ühendkuningriik nõus väitega, et Portsmouth on olnud MMD kahjude katmisega rahul, ilma et nõuda ettevõtte restruktureerimist või reformimist.
Furthermore, the United Kingdom explained that many of the internal briefings provided to PCC about MMD were provided orally rather than in writing and thus they cannot be demonstrated by written evidence.
Nagu Ühendkuningriik selgitas ka vastuseks algatamisotsusele, on Portsmouth koos MMD juhatusega teinud nii mõndagi, et ettevõtet restruktureerida, kulusid vähendada, tõhusust parandada ja konkurentsivõimet suurendada.
Nevertheless, the United Kingdom considers that the documents submitted provide sufficient evidence that PCC has since acquisition of MMD in 2008 taken reasonable, commercially motivated decisions in relation to MMD.
Selleks tehti alljärgnevat:
Furthermore, the additional submission also stresses (and provides relevant documentary evidence) that during the relevant period there were a number of instances in which PCC considered alternative proposals:
ametiühingutega lepiti kokku uues töölepingus, et tööjõud oleks paindlikum ja tõhusam (sellega loodeti hoida aastas kokku umbes 250000 naela tööjõukulusid);
In 2011, Condor Logistics approached PCC with a view to negotiating the purchase of MMD.
ajakohastati konteinerite käsitsemise ja ladustamise võimalusi, et järgida nõudluse suundumusi;
PCC entered into discussions with Condor Logistics relating to a full or partial sale of the business and investigated open-mindedly this commercial opportunity, but Condor Logistics' discontinued its freight service in October 2012 and the discussions were terminated;
MMD veoteenuste osutamine lõpetati ja hakati neid sisse ostma, et keskenduda põhitegevusele (kolmandast isikust vedajaga sõlmitud lepinguga loodeti hoiukohtade renditasudest ja kasumiosalusest saada umbes [50000–150000] naela lisatulu);
In 2012, there was a PCC meeting on 30 October 2012 to further discuss the option of retaining or selling/closing MMD;
täiustati IT-süsteeme (nt uus kaubajälgimissüsteem ja veokite broneerimise süsteem) ning muud taristut (nt toitepinge optimeerimise seadmed külmhoidlates, päikesepaneelid ladude katustel ja leedvalgustus, mis hoiavad aastas elektrikulude pealt kokku vastavalt 30000, 230000 ja 70000 naela), mis kõik on parandanud finantstulemuslikkust;
On 21 June 2013, an internal paper prepared by MMD's management evaluated the possibility of selling the business or of using the site for alternative purposes;
investeeriti kvaliteedistandardite ja akrediteeringute (ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001, volitatud ettevõtja staatuse ja 360° kvaliteedikoodeksi) nõuete täitmisse;
In October 2013, PCC carried out a full appraisal of alternative options for MMD based on a documented assessment of MMD's economic prospects for each of the options;
loodi juurde ladustamiskohti;
In 2014/2015, PCC assessed a proposal to use MMD's site to construct wind turbines for the production of electricity.
muudeti MMD direktorite nõukogu koosseisu, et parandada finantsalast aruandekohuslust.
However, the scheme did not receive planning permission and therefore could not proceed;
Restruktureerimiskava oli osa MMD 2008. aastal omandamise investeerimiskavast ning restruktureerimiskava elluviimise kohta anti Portsmouthile regulaarselt aru nii suuliselt kui ka kirjalikult.
In 2015/2016, […].
Seega on Portsmouth käitunud nagu eraettevõtja, kes hoolitseb ettevõttes vajalike muudatuste tegemise eest, et paraneks selle tulemuslikkus ja konkurentsivõime.
Finally, following a conference call on 18 April 2018, the United Kingdom submitted additional contemporaneous evidence of the ex ante economic evaluations of different available options together with a detailed explanation of the methodology of the underlying economic model.
Need meetmed on Portsmouthi ja MMD varasemates sisedokumentides hästi dokumenteeritud ning Ühendkuningriik on need ka tõendusmaterjalina esitanud.
United Kingdom Comments on interested parties' observations
Teiseks lükkas Ühendkuningriik ümber väite, et MMD pakkus klientide hoidmiseks ja juurdesaamiseks turuhinnast madalamaid käitlushindu ning isegi tasuta ladustamist.
As regards the comments of the Complainant, the United Kingdom pointed out that they merely repeat the allegations of State aid in the Opening Decision without offering any specific comments or evidence.
Anonüümne huvitatud isik ei esitanud nende väidete kinnituseks mingeid tõendeid, öeldes vaid, et MMD olevat seda „väidetavalt“ teinud, aga jättes mainimata, kes nii väitis.
The United Kingdom position with respect to these allegations was set out in the United Kingdom comments on the Opening Decision.
Ühendkuningriigi sõnul on need väited alusetud, sest MMD hinnad on samasugused kui teistes sadamates ja sageli isegi kõrgemad kui konkurentidel.
As regards the comments of the Anonymous Interested Party, the United Kingdom also pointed out that most of the comments simply repeat the allegations of the Opening Decision without offering any specific comments or evidence.
Peale selle andsid mõned kliendid MMDga peetud hinnaläbirääkimiste ajal teada ka mõne teise sadama pakutud hindadest, kuigi sadamate hinnad ei ole muidu teistele sadamatele teada.
However, the United Kingdom commented on three specific points made by the Anonymous Interested Party.
Neist hinnaandmetest on näha, et MMD hinnad on teiste sadamate omadega sarnased.
First, the United Kingdom disagreed with the allegation that PCC has been content to cover MMD's losses without seeking to restructure or reform the business.
Samuti lükkas Ühendkuningriik ümber väite, et MMD pakkus klientidele tasuta ladustamist.
As the United Kingdom explains also in its comments on the Opening Decision, PCC has in conjunction with MMD management taken a number of steps to restructure the business, reduce costs, improve efficiencies and put the business on a more competitive footing.
Kolmandaks lükkas Ühendkuningriik ümber ka väite, et ebaseadusliku riigiabi andmise tagajärjel on värsked aedviljad muutunud teiste, abi mittesaavate ettevõtjate jaoks vähem atraktiivseks.
These measures included:
Taas ei ole selle väite kohta mingeid tõendeid ning (nagu mainitud ka Ühendkuningriigi märkustes algatamisotsuse kohta) teisedki sadamad (nt Dover) investeerivad endiselt värskete aedviljade käitlemisse (Dover ostis hiljuti puuviljade käitlemisega tegeleva Hammondi).
agreeing a new employment contract with the unions to introduce more flexibility and efficiency in the workforce (projected to save around GBP 250000 in annual labour costs);
MEETMETE HINDAMINE
modernisation of container handling and storage facilities to address trends in demand;
Vastavalt ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 107 lõikele 1 on liikmesriigi poolt või riigi ressurssidest ükskõik missugusel kujul antav abi, mis kahjustab või ähvardab kahjustada konkurentsi, soodustades teatud ettevõtmisi või teatud kaupade tootmist, siseturuga kokkusobimatu niivõrd, kuivõrd see kahjustab liikmesriikidevahelist kaubandust.
termination and outsourcing of MMD's haulage operations to enable MMD to focus on its core business (while the contract with the third party haulier would be expected to bring around GBP [50000-150000] additional income from storage rental payments and share in profit);
Riigiabi olemasolu
improvements to IT (such as new track-and-trace computer system or a vehicle booking system) and other infrastructure (for example power perfectors fitted in refrigerator sheds saving GBP 30000 in electricity costs per annum, solar panels installed onto the roof of the sheds estimated to save around GBP 230000 on electricity per annum or installation of LED lightning expected to save around GBP 70000 in annual electricity costs) which have driven an improved financial performance;
ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 107 lõikes 1 esitatud riigiabimääratluse kohaselt koosneb riigiabi järgnevast: i) on olemas ettevõtmine, ii) meede on omistatav riigile ja seda rahastatakse riigi ressurssidest, iii) antakse majanduslik eelis, iv) meede on valikuline ning v) see mõjutab konkurentsi ja liikmesriikidevahelist kaubandust.
investment in meeting quality standards and accreditations (ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001, AEO Status or 360 Quality code);
Et meedet saaks pidada riigiabiks, peavad olema täidetud kõik need kriteeriumid.
creation of additional storage areas;
Ühendkuningriik väidab, et meetmed ei anna MMD-le majanduslikku eelist, sest on kooskõlas turumajandusliku investori põhimõttega.
changes to the Board of MMD to improve financial accountability.
Selle kohaselt ei anna avaliku sektori asutuste majandustehingud teisele poolele eelist ega ole seetõttu abi, kui need on tehtud tavapärastel turutingimustel.
The restructuring plan formed part of the original business case for the acquisition of MMD in 2008, and there were regular oral and written reports to PCC on MMD's progress in implementing the restructuring programme.
Niisiis, et teha kindlaks, kas väidetavad abimeetmed on riigiabi, analüüsib komisjon kõigepealt majandusliku eelise kriteeriumit.
PCC has thus behaved as a private operator in securing the necessary changes to the business so that it is in a position to improve performance and become more competitive.
Majandusliku eelise olemasolu
Second, the United Kingdom refuted the allegation that MMD is alleged to have offered below market handling rates to attract and retain fresh produce customers and that MMD has even offered customers free storage.
Eelise olemasolu hindamiseks kasutab komisjon turumajandusliku investori testi.
The Anonymous Interested Party offered no evidence to substantiate these allegations and merely stated that MMD is ‘reputed’ or ‘reported’ to be offering such pricing without stating by whom.
Komisjon analüüsib lisatõendite ja -väidete alusel, kas hüpoteetiline turumajanduslik investor oleks Portsmouthiga samas olukorras olles (MMD ainuaktsionärina, kui sadamas toimub ka muu äritegevus ja samas mahus nagu Portsmouthi puhul) rakendanud 2.–5. meedet.
The United Kingdom claims these allegations are baseless since MMD's prices reflect tariffs offered at other ports and indeed are often higher than competing prices.
Sellisel hindamisel tuleb tugineda 2.–5. meetme rakendamise otsuse tegemise aegsetele tõenditele, et näha, kas tehti majanduslikke analüüse, mida oleks samadel asjaoludel teinud ratsionaalne erainvestor liikmesriigiga võimalikult sarnases olukorras enne investeeringu tegemist ja olemasolevaid alternatiive arvesse võttes.
The United Kingdom submitted evidence that in reality MMD's rates have not been reduced following PCC's acquisition of MMD in 2008.
Peale selle tuleb hindamisel jätta kõrvale kõik kaalutlused, mis on seotud liikmesriigi kui avaliku võimu kandja rolliga (nt sotsiaal-, regionaal- või valdkonnapoliitilised kaalutlused).
On the contrary, pallet rates have increased by almost […]% in this period.
Et teha kindlaks, kas 2.–4. meede on kooskõlas turumajandusliku investori põhimõttega, vaatleb komisjon rahalise abi meetmete võtmise aega.
Furthermore, even though there is little transparency in pricing between ports, some customers quoted rates offered to them by other ports during the price negotiations with MMD.
Ühendkuningriigi väited ja tõendid viitavad sellele, et 2.–5. meede olid tegelikult osa kogu finantsabist, mida Portsmouth MMD-le emaettevõttena andis, et soodustada tütarettevõtte restruktureerimist eesmärgiga muuta see kestlikuks ja kasumlikuks.
These quotes demonstrate that MMD's prices reflect market pricing at other ports.
Seetõttu hinnati neid keerukaid meetmeid pidevalt, et veenduda, kas need on majanduslikult kõige ratsionaalsem toimimisviis.
Similarly, the United Kingdom rejected the allegation that MMD offered free storage to its customers.
Need olid kõik majandusmudelis, mida Portsmouth selliseks hindamiseks kasutas.
Third, the United Kingdom refuted the allegation that as a result of unlawful State aid fresh produce has become a much less attractive proposition for non-aided operators.
Seega on 2.–5. meetme hindamine turumajandusliku investori põhimõtte alusel seotud ja meetmeid eraldi hinnata ei saa.
There is again no evidence of this allegation and, as pointed out in the United Kingdom comments on the Opening Decision, other ports, such as Dover, continue to invest in the handling of fresh produce (Dover has recently acquired Hammond which operates a fruit handling business).
Sellepärast hindab komisjon kõigepealt 2.–5. meetme kui terviku vastavust turumajandusliku investori põhimõttele ja lisab hiljem vajalikul hulgal konkreetsete meetmetega seotud kaalutlusi.
ASSESSMENT OF THE MEASURES
Ühendkuningriigi esitatud dokumendid on objektiivsed ja kontrollitavad tõendid, mis näitavad juriidiliselt vastuvõetaval määral, et Portsmouth analüüsis pärast MMD omandamist hoolikalt selle tegelikku olukorda ja ärilisi väljavaateid, lähtudes vaid majanduslikest kaalutlustest.
By virtue of Article 107(1) of the Treaty, any aid granted by a Member State or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain goods shall, in so far as it affects trade between Member States, be incompatible with the internal market.
Dokumendid on üldjuhul korralikult kuupäevastatud ning neis on Portsmouthi põhjendatud analüüs ja prognoosid, mis on tehtud üldiselt mõistlikele eeldustele tuginedes.
Existence of State aid
Seega ei usaldata dokumentides lihtsalt MMD esitatud arvnäitajaid ja argumente, vaid hinnatakse neid kriitiliselt ning nii on dokumendid tõend sellest, et Portsmouth tegi MMD üle pidevat ja aktiivset majanduslikku järelevalvet.
In view of the definition of the notion of State aid in Article 107(1) of the Treaty, the constituent elements of State aid are: (i) the existence of an undertaking, (ii) the imputability of the measure to the State and its financing from the State resources, (iii) the granting of an economic advantage, (iv) the selectivity of the measure, and (v) its effect on competition and trade between Member States.
Esitatud dokumentidest on näha, et regulaarse majandusanalüüsi käigus vaadeldi paljusid omavahel seotud kokkuhoiuvõimalusi ja sünergiat, mis on võimalikud, kui jätkata täielikus omandis tegevuskohal äritegevust (eriti seoses samuti Portsmouthi ainuomandis oleva Portsmouthi sadama teiste tegevustega, milleks on peamiselt parv- ja kruiisilaevadega seotud tegevus).
These criteria need to be fulfilled cumulatively for any measure to constitute State aid.
Sünergia hõlmab alljärgnevat.
The United Kingdom claims that these measures do not provide any economic advantage to MMD since they are in line with the Market Economy Investor Principle (MEIP).
MMD tegevuskoht on Portsmouthi sadama teiste osade lähistel ja kui säilitada kontroll MMD tegevuskoha üle, saab Portsmouth sadama, parv- või kruiisilaevadega seotud tegevust paindlikult laiendada.
According to this principle, economic transactions carried out by public bodies in the role of investors do not confer an advantage on its counterpart, and therefore do not constitute aid, if they are carried out in line with normal market conditions.
MMD võtab vastu ja saadab välja igal aastal umbes […] kaubaaluse jagu kaupa, mis laaditakse kõrvalolevas parvlaevasadamas peatuvale alusele/peatuvalt aluselt.
Therefore, in order to establish whether the alleged aid measures constitute State aid, the Commission will first analyse the criterion of economic advantage.
Selle kauba tõttu saab rahvusvaheline parvlaevasadam lisasissetulekut umbes […] naela aastas ning see ei oleks võimalik, kui sadama lähedal ei oleks MMD stividori- ja käitlusteenuseid.
Existence of economic advantage
Peale selle saab MMD nende mahtudega seotud käitlustasu ainult sellepärast, et asub parvlaevasadama kõrval.
Following the Opening Decision, the United Kingdom provided substantial additional evidence indicating that all measures taken by PCC in support of MMD, either in the form of revenue grants or various forms of financing, were preceded by a thorough analysis of their economic merits.
Portsmouth on saanud MMD omamise tõttu sadamasse rohkem kommertsparvlaevu.
For the purpose of assessing the existence of an advantage in this case, the Commission applies the market economy investor test.Based on the additional evidence and arguments submitted, the Commission will analyse whether a hypothetical market economy investor in a similar position as PCC (that means, in particular, in a position of a 100 %-shareholder in MMD with additional commercial activities in the port and of a comparable size as PCC) would have provided Measures 2 to 5.
Näiteks Transfennica tuli 2015. aastal sadama kliendiks MMD konteinerikäitlusvõimaluste ja stividoriteenuse pärast.
This assessment needs to be based on ex ante evidence showing that the decisions to grant Measures 2 to 5 was based on economic evaluations comparable to those which, in the circumstances, a rational private investor in a situation as close as possible to that of the Member State would have had carried out, before making the investment and in view of the available alternative options.
Parvlaevasadam sai sellest lisatulu umbes 107000 naela.
In addition, this assessment must be applied leaving aside all considerations which exclusively relate to a Member State's role as a public authority (for example social, regional or sectoral policy considerations).
Mõne ettevõtjaga on käimas läbirääkimised selle üle, kas saaks asjaolu, et MMD asub parvlaevasadama lähedal, veelgi enam ära kasutada.
In order to examine whether Measures 2-4 comply with the market economy investor test, the Commission places itself in the context of the period during which the financial support measures were taken.
Näiteks veeremiparvlaevani viivat teed sadamas saab kasutada MMD käideldud kaubaga veokite teelesaatmiseks või vastuvõtmiseks.
The United Kingdom's arguments and evidence point to the fact that Measures 2 to 5 were in practice part of an overall financial support to MMD, provided by PCC as its parent company, in order to facilitate and accompany an ongoing restructuring of the business with the aim of achieving sustainability and profitability of its operations.
Samuti on MMD-l käimas kaugelejõudnud konfidentsiaalsed läbirääkimised […]ga, kes on teinud ettepaneku […].
The measures were thus continuously assessed in their complexity in order to determine the most economically rational way forward.
See tooks nii parvlaevasadamale kui ka MMD-le ühtekokku sisse umbes […] naela aastas.
They were thus all part of the economic model used by PCC for this assessment.
Sadam kasutab vahel MMD kaisid kruiisilaevade jaoks, mis taas võimaldab olemasolevat võimsust paindlikult kasutada ja on nii sadamale kasulik.
The MEIP-compliance assessment of Measures 2 to 5 is therefore closely interlinked and cannot be simply assessed measure by measure.
Kuna selline sünergia on puhtäriline, arvab komisjon, et hüpoteetiline turumajanduslik investor arvestaks MMD toetamismeetmete majanduslikku kasu hinnates sellise oma teiste ettevõtmistega seotud sünergiaga.
For this reason, the Commission will first analyse the MEIP-compliance of Measures 2 to 5 as a whole and only then, to the extent necessary, will the Commission add specific considerations with respect to individual measures.
Peale selle oleks turumajanduslik investor kindlasti võtnud arvesse Portsmouthi tulevasi rahavooge rendist, lootsiteenusest ja sadamatasudest, mida MMD maksab, ning võimalust, et alternatiivide kasuks otsustamise korral jääks ta neist kas osaliselt või täielikult ilma.
The documents submitted by the United Kingdom represent objective and verifiable evidence demonstrating to a sufficient legal standard that PCC since its acquisition of MMD meticulously analysed its actual situation and commercial prospects based on purely economic considerations.
Kui turumajanduslik emaettevõte hindab tütarettevõtte toetamise majanduslikku põhjendatust, on sellised tulevased tulud olulised.
The documents are generally duly dated and include a reasoned analysis by PCC as well as PCC's forecasts based on generally reasonable assumptions.
Seega, kuigi need tuluvood üksi ei saa olla aluseks MMD toetamise jätkamisele, on nendega arvestamine üldises majandusmudelis kooskõlas hüpoteetilise turumajandusliku investori käitumisega.
The documents are thus not simply relying on figures and arguments submitted by MMD itself but assess them critically and represent a proof of PCC's active and continuous economic oversight over MMD.
Ühendkuningriik esitas koopiad majandusmudelist, mille abil analüüsiti eri võimalusi ja nende majanduslikku kasu ning milles arvestati Portsmouthi kontrolli all olevate ettevõtete eelkirjeldatud sünergiat ja tuluvooge.
The documents submitted demonstrate that the regular economic analysis included considerations on the numerous inter-related economies and synergies of maintaining a commercial operation on a wholly-owned site, in particular the synergies with other activities in the Port of Portsmouth (mainly ferry and cruise operations), also fully owned by PCC.
Mudel koostati MMDsse investeerimise jätkamise majandusliku otstarbekuse analüüsimiseks ja seda ajakohastati regulaarselt.
These synergies include:
Seega analüüsiti enne MMD-le lisaabi andmist (tulutoetuse ja eri finantseerimise teel) alati selle mõistlikkust võrreldes teiste alternatiividega.
the MMD site is adjacent to other parts of the Port of Portsmouth and by keeping a full control over the MMD site, PCC retains flexibility to expand the port, ferry or cruise operations;
Alternatiivsed võimalused, mida Portsmouth MMD puhul eri aegadel kaalus, olid järgmised.
