any other indicator showing, in the particular case, an involvement by the public authorities in the adoption of a measure or the unlikelihood of their not being involved, having regard also to the compass of the measure, its content or the conditions which it contains.
druge pokazatelje koji upućuju, u određenom slučaju, na sudjelovanje javnih tijela u donošenju mjera ili na to da postoji mala vjerojatnost da javna tijela nisu u tome sudjelovala, uzimajući u obzir opseg mjere, njezin sadržaj ili njezine uvjete.
During the entire period subject to the present decision, VFAB was 100 % owned by the state, either entirely by the City of Västerås or jointly by the City of Västerås and LFV Holding, a subsidiary of SCAA, a public body.
U cijelom razdoblju na koje se primjenjuje ova odluka, društvo VFAB bilo je u stopostotnom vlasništvu države, odnosno u potpunom vlasništvu grada Västerås ili zajedničkom vlasništvu grada Västerås i društva LFV Holding, društva kćeri SCAA-a, koje je javno tijelo.
The state, as the sole shareholder of VFAB and by appointing its board of directors, can be presumed to have full influence over VFAB and to control its resources.
Budući da je jedini dioničar društva VFAB i imenuje članove njegovog upravnog odbora, može se pretpostavljati da će država imati potpuni utjecaj nad društvom VFAB i kontrolirati njegove resurse.
Thus, any advantage granted from VFAB's resources is granted through state resources.
Stoga se prednost koja se dodjeljuje putem sredstava društva VFAB dodjeljuje putem državnih sredstava.
Imputability
Odgovornost
The Commission first notes that according to the by-laws of VFAB, the purpose of the undertaking is to satisfy the region's air transport needs in compliance with the principles of public law which, apply to the activities of local administrations.
Komisija prvo primjećuje da je, prema podzakonskim aktima društva VFAB, svrha poduzetnika zadovoljiti potrebe regije za zračnim prijevozom u skladu s načelima javnog prava koja se primjenjuju na aktivnosti lokalnih uprava.
Thus the general purpose of the company refers to objectives of general interest which are those typically pursued by public authorities and to the specific legal provisions applying to local administrations.
Stoga je opća svrha poduzeća ostvariti ciljeve od općeg interesa koje obično ostvaruju javna tijela i posebne pravne odredbe koje se primjenjuju na lokalne uprave.
Moreover, it is the City of Västerås (together with LFV Holding when the latter was a shareholder) which appoints the Board of VFAB [42].
Nadalje, odbor društva VFAB [42] imenuje grad Västerås (zajedno s društvom LFV Holding kada je ono bilo dioničar.)
Furthermore, the decision to mandate the CEO of VFAB to conclude the original 2001 Arrangement with Ryanair was adopted by the Board made up of the ordinary members appointed by the City of Västerås [43].
Nadalje, odluku o davanju ovlasti direktoru društva VFAB da sklopi izvorni ugovor s Ryanairom iz 2001. donio je upravni odbor sastavljen od redovnih članova koje je imenovao grad Västerås [43].
The by-laws furthermore require the undertaking to submit all important operational decisions to the City Council so that the latter can take a view on them.
Nadalje, podzakonskim aktima propisano je da poduzetnik mora sve važne odluke o radu podnositi gradskom vijeću na mišljenje.
It is clear from the documents submitted in the course of the formal investigation that the City of Västerås has been directly involved in major commercial decisions.
Jasno je iz dokumenata koji su podneseni tijekom formalne istrage da je grad Västerås izravno sudjelovao u donošenju važnih poslovnih odluka.
Based on these elements, it appears that the State must be considered as involved in the commercial decisions of VFAB, which is a company that cannot devise its market strategy regardless of the public authority's formal or informal directives.
Na temelju tih elemenata čini se da se mora smatrati da je država sudjelovala u donošenju poslovnih odluka društva VFAB koje ne može sastaviti svoju marketinšku strategiju bez formalnih ili neformalnih uputa javnog tijela.
Hence, the Commission, which notes that Sweden has not disputed imputability, considers that VFAB's commercial arrangements with Ryanair and AMS under Measures 4 and 5 are imputable to the state.
Stoga Komisija, koja primjećuje da Švedska nije osporila odgovornost, smatra da je država odgovorna za tržišne sporazume društva VFAB s društvima Ryanair i AMS u skladu s mjerama 4. i 5.
In order to assess whether an agreement between a publicly owned airport and an airline confers an economic advantage on the latter, it is necessary to analyse whether this agreement complied with the MEO principle.
U svrhu ocjene osigurava li se sporazumom između zračne luke u državnom vlasništvu i zračnog prijevoznika gospodarska prednost tom prijevozniku, potrebno je analizirati je li taj sporazum u skladu s načelom subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu.
In applying the MEO test to an agreement between an airport and an airline, it must be assessed whether, at the date when the agreement was concluded, a prudent market economy operator would have expected this agreement to lead to a higher profit than would have been achieved otherwise.
Kod primjene testa subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu između zračne luke i zračnog prijevoznika, važno je ocijeniti bi li, u trenutku sklapanja sporazuma, razuman subjekt u tržišnom gospodarstvu očekivao da će se takvim ugovorom ostvariti veća dobit nego u bez ugovora.
This higher profit is to be measured by the difference between the incremental revenues expected to be generated by the contract (that is, the difference between the revenues that would be achieved if the contract were concluded and the revenues that would be achieved absent the contract) and the incremental costs expected to be incurred as a result of the contract (that is, the difference between the costs that would be incurred if the contract were concluded and the costs that would be incurred absent the contract), the resulting cash flows being discounted with an appropriate discount rate.
Ta veća dobit mjerit će se razlikom između očekivanih inkrementalnih prihoda nastalih primjenom ugovora (odnosno, razlikom između prihoda koji bi ostvareni da je ugovor sklopljen i prihoda koji bi bili ostvareni bez ugovora) i inkrementalnih troškova koji bi nastali zbog primjene ugovora (odnosno, razlikom između troškova koji bi nastali da su ugovori sklopljeni i troškova koji bi nastali bez ugovora), uz posljedične novčane tokove diskontirane odgovarajućom diskontnom stopom.
When assessing airport/airline arrangements, the Commission will also take into account the extent to which the arrangements under assessment can be considered part of the implementation of an overall strategy of the airport expected to lead to profitability at least in the long term (point 66 of the Guidelines).
Pri procjeni dogovora između zračne luke i zračnog prijevoznika Komisija će uzeti u obzir i opseg u kojem se procjenjivani dogovor može smatrati dijelom provedbe cjelokupne strategije zračne luke za koju se očekuje da bi barem dugoročno trebala dovesti do profitabilnosti (točka 66. Smjernica).
In this analysis, all the relevant incremental revenues and costs associated with the transaction must be taken into account.
U toj se analizi moraju uzeti u obzir svi relevantnih inkrementalni prihodi i troškovi povezani s transakcijom.
The various elements (discounts to airport charges, marketing grants, other financial incentives) must not be assessed separately.
Različiti elementi (popusti za pristojbe zračnih luka, bespovratna sredstva za marketing, ostali financijski poticaji) ne mogu se zasebno ocjenjivati.
Indeed, as stated in the Charleroi judgment:
Kako je navedeno u presudi Charleroi:
‘It is … necessary, when applying the private investor test, to envisage the commercial transaction as a whole in order to determine whether the public entity and the entity which is controlled by it, taken together, have acted as rational operators in a market economy. The Commission must, when assessing the measures at issue, examine all the relevant features of the measures and their context […].’
„Kod primjene testa privatnog ulagača, nužno je zamisliti poslovnu transakciju u cjelini kako bi se moglo utvrditi jesu li javno tijelo ili tijelo kojeg ono kontrolira zajedno postupali kao razumni operateri u tržišnom gospodarstvu. Kada ocjenjuje predmetne mjere, Komisija mora preispitati sve relevantne značajke mjera i njihov kontekst […].”
The expected incremental revenues must include in particular the revenues from airport charges, taking into account the discounts as well as the traffic expected to be generated by the agreement and the non-aeronautical revenues expected to be generated by the additional traffic.
Očekivani inkrementalni prihodi moraju posebno uključivati prihod od pristojbi zračnih luka uzimajući u obzir popuste i promet za koji se očekuje da će nastati na temelju ugovora i nezrakoplovnog prihoda za koji se očekuje da će nastati zbog dodatnog prometa.
The expected incremental costs must include in particular all the incremental operating and investment costs that would not be incurred absent the agreement as well as the costs of the marketing grants and other financial incentives.
Očekivani inkrementalni troškovi moraju uključivati posebno sve inkrementalne operativne troškove i troškove ulaganja koji ne bi nastali bez ugovora te troškove bespovratnih sredstava za marketing i ostalih financijskih poticaja.
The Commission also notes in this context that price differentiation (including marketing support and other incentives) is a standard business practice.
Komisija također primjećuje u ovom kontekstu da je diferenciranje cijena (uključujući potporu za marketing i ostale poticaje) uobičajena poslovna praksa.
Such differentiated pricing policies should, however, be commercially justified.
Takve politike diferenciranih cijena trebale bi, međutim, biti komercijalno opravdane.
Application of the MEOP to the agreements in question, in particular with Ryanair
Primjena načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu na predmetne ugovore, posebno s društvom Ryanair
For the purposes of the application of the MEOP in this case, it is first appropriate to assess the following questions:
U svrhe primjene načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu u ovom slučaju, prvo treba ocijeniti sljedeća pitanja:
Should the marketing agreement and the arrangements on airport charges be considered jointly for the purposes of the MEOP or, as Ryanair and AMS have argued, separately?
Trebaju li se ugovor o marketingu i sporazumi o pristojbama zračnih luka razmatrati zajedno u svrhe načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu ili, kako su tvrdili društva Ryanair i AMS, odvojeno?
Is it relevant to compare the arrangements covered by the formal investigation with the airport charges applied in other airports for the purposes of applying the MEOP?
Je li relevantno usporediti sporazume obuhvaćene formalnom istragom s pristojbama zračnim lukama u drugim zračnim lukama u svrhe primjene načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu?
The Commission will first address these two questions and then apply to MEOP to Measures 4 and 5.
Komisija će prvo razmotriti ta dva pitanja i zatim primijeniti načelo subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu primijeniti na mjere 4. i 5.
Joint assessment of the marketing agreements and the arrangements on airport charges
Zajednička ocjena ugovora o marketingu i sporazuma o pristojbama zračnih luka
The Commission considers that two types of measures covered by the formal investigation in this case, namely the airport service agreement and the marketing agreements, must be evaluated together as one single measure.
Komisija smatra da se dvije vrste mjera obuhvaćenih formalnom istragom u ovom slučaju, odnosno ugovor o uslugama zračnih luka i ugovor o marketingu, moraju ocjenjivati zajedno kao jedna mjera.
This approach concerns the airport services agreement concluded between VFAB and Ryanair, on the one hand, and the marketing agreements between VFAB and Ryanair as well as VFAB and AMS.
Taj se pristup odnosi na ugovor o uslugama zračne luke između društva VFAB i Ryanair, s jedne strane, i ugovora o marketingu između društva VFAB i Ryanair te društva VFAB i AMS.
Ryanair does not dispute that the marketing contract concluded directly between Ryanair and VFAB is to be assessed together with the airport charges agreement.
Ryanair ne osporava da će se ugovor o marketingu sklopljen izravno između društva Ryanair i VFAB ocjenjivati zajedno s ugovorom o pristojbama zračnih luka.
Indeed, the two agreements together govern the commercial relationship between VFAB and Ryanair.
Dvama ugovorima zajedno uređuje se poslovni odnos između društava VFAB i Ryanair.
In the Commission's view, the same applies for the marketing agreement with AMS, for the following reasons.
Prema mišljenju Komisije, isto se primjenjuje na ugovor o marketingu s društvom AMS, iz sljedećih razloga.
There are several indications pointing towards the fact that these contracts are to be evaluated as one single measure since they have been concluded within the framework of a single transaction.
Postoji nekoliko naznaka koje upućuju na to da ugovore treba ocjenjivati kao jednu mjeru jer su sklopljeni u okviru jedne transakcije.
First of all, AMS is a 100 % subsidiary of Ryanair.
Prvo, Ryanair je stopostotni vlasnik društva AMS.
The marketing contract was signed on behalf of AMS by Mr Edward Wilson, who at the time was a Director with AMS and concurrently a Director with Ryanair.
Ugovor o marketingu potpisao je u ime društva g. Edward Wilsom koji je u to vrijeme bio direktor društva AMS i direktor u Ryanairu.
For the purpose of the application of State aid rules, AMS and Ryanair are considered to be a single undertaking, in the sense that AMS acts as an intermediary in the interest and under the control of Ryanair.
U svrhe primjene pravila o državnim potporama, društvo AMS i Ryanair smatraju se jedinstvenim poduzetnikom u smislu da društvo AMS djeluje kao posrednik i pod kontrolom društva Ryanair.
For the present agreements, this can also be inferred from the fact that the marketing agreement states in its preamble ‘[…] www.ryanair.com, the website of the Irish low fares airline Ryanair’.
U svrhe postojećih ugovora, to se također može zaključiti iz činjenice da je u preambuli ugovora o marketingu navedeno da „[…] www.ryanair.com, web-mjesto irskog niskobudžetnog prijevoznika društva Ryanair.”
Furthermore, these marketing agreements, although nominally made between VFAB and AMS, are explicitly side letters to the 2005 Agreement i.e. to the airport charge agreement of 31 January 2005 between VFAB and Ryanair.
Nadalje, ti su ugovori o marketingu, iako su sklopljeni između društava VFAB i AMS, zapravo popratni dopisi uz ugovor iz 2005., odnosno, ugovor o pristojbama zračnih luka od 31. siječnja 2005. između društava FAB i Ryanair.
This clearly shows that the both parties did not dissociate between the airport service agreements and the marketing services agreement but considered them to be part of one single commercial arrangement (the Commission also notes that although the two side letters of 1 August are nominally made between VFAB and AMS, they are nevertheless signed on behalf of Ryanair Ltd).
Iz toga je jasno da obje stranke nisu razlikovale između ugovora o uslugama zračne luke i ugovora o uslugama marketinga već su ih smatrale dijelom jednog poslovnog sporazuma (Komisija također napominje da je oba dopisa od 1. kolovoza, koja su nominalno sklopljena između društva VFAB i AMS, sklopilo društvo Ryanair Ltd.).
Second, the 2010 marketing agreement with AMS states in its first section, entitled ‘Purpose of the Agreement’, that the agreement is ‘[…]’.
Drugo, u ugovoru o marketingu s društvom AMS iz 2010. navedeno je u prvom odjeljku pod nazivom „Svrha ugovora” da je ugovor „[…]”.
This formulation establishes an unambiguous direct link between the service agreement and this marketing agreement in the sense that one would not have been concluded without the other.
Tom je formulacijom uspostavljena jasna veza između ugovora o uslugama i ovog ugovora o marketingu u smislu da jedan ne bi bilo sklopljen bez drugoga.
The marketing agreement is based on the conclusion of the airport services agreement and the services provided by Ryanair.
Ugovor o marketingu temeljio se na sklapanju ugovora o pružanju usluga zračne luke i usluga koje je pružao Ryanair.
Indeed, the preamble furthermore states that VFAB intends to target Ryanair passengers in order to promote tourism and business opportunities in the region.
U preambuli je dalje navedeno da društvo VFAB planira putem putnika društva Ryanair promicati turizam i poslovne prilike u regiji.
Third, the marketing agreement states in its preamble that VFAB has decided to ‘actively promote Västmanland and Västerås as a holiday destination for international air travellers and also as an attractive business centre.’ This is an indication that the conclusion of the marketing agreement has as its primary and specific purpose to promote specifically Västerås Airport (and the surrounding area, Västmanland) among Ryanair's potential customers.
Treće, u preambuli ugovora o marketingu navedeno je je društvo VFAB odlučilo „aktivno promicati Västmanland i Västerås kao turističko odredište za međunarodne putnike u zračnom prijevozu i kao privlačan poslovni centar.” To je naznaka da je primarna i posebna svrha ugovora o marketingu bila promicati posebno zračnu luku Västerås (i okolicu njegovu Västmanland) među potencijalnim korisnicima prijevoznika Ryanair.
In conclusion, the marketing service contract concluded by VFAB and AMS are thus indivisibly linked to the airport service agreements signed by Ryanair and VFAB.
Zaključno, ugovori o marketingu koje su sklopila društva VFAB i AMS neodvojivo su povezani s ugovorima o pružanju usluga zračne luke koje su potpisali društva Ryanair i VBA-a.
The above considerations demonstrate that without the airport service agreements, the marketing contracts would not have been concluded.
Iz prethodnog je jasno da ugovori o marketingu ne bi bili potpisani bez ugovora o pružanju usluge zračne luke.
Indeed, the marketing contract states explicitly that it is based on Ryanair's Västerås-London service, and essentially envisages marketing services aimed at promoting that route.
U ugovoru o marketingu izričito je navedeno da se temelji na zračnoj liniji Ryanaira između Västeråsa i Londona i predviđene su usluge marketinga usmjerene na promicanje te zračne linije.
For these reasons, the Commission considers it appropriate to analyse the airport service Arrangements between VFAB and Ryanair and the marketing agreement of 1 and 17 August 2010 jointly, with a view to determining whether they constitute State aid measures or not.
Iz tih razloga Komisija smatra primjerenim analizirati ugovore o pružanju usluge zračne luke između društava VFAB i Ryanair i ugovor o marketingu od 1. i 17. kolovoza 2010. zajedno kako bi utvrdila čine li mjere državne potpore ili ne.
The feasibility of comparing Västerås Airport to other European airports
Izvedivost uspoređivanja zračne luke Västerås s ostalim europskim zračnim lukama
Sweden as well as Ryanair has argued that the MEOP assessment should be performed by comparing the terms of the commercial arrangements between VFAB on the one hand and Ryanair and AMS on the other to the terms of comparable agreements at other airports.
Švedska i Ryanair tvrdili su da bi ocjenjivanje načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu trebalo izvršiti usporedbom uvjeta poslovnih ugovora između društva VFAB s jedne strane i društava Ryanair i AMS s druge strane s uvjetima iz usporedivih ugovora u drugim zračnim lukama.
Under the new guidelines for applying the MEO principle, the existence of aid to an airline using a particular airport can, in principle, be excluded if the price charged for the airport services corresponds to the market price, or if it can be demonstrated through an ex ante analysis that the airport/airline arrangement will lead to a positive incremental profit contribution for the airport.
U skladu s novim smjernicama za primjenu načela subjekta u tržišnom gospodarstvu, postojanje potpore zračnom prijevozniku uporabom određene zračne luke može se, u načelu, isključiti ako cijena koja se naplaćuje za usluge zračne luke odgovara tržišnoj cijeni ili ako se može dokazati ex-ante analizom da će zračna luka na temelju ugovora između zračne luke/zračnog prijevoznika ostvariti pozitivan inkrementalni profit.
However, as regards the first approach (a comparison with the ‘market price’), the Commission doubts that, at the present time, an appropriate benchmark can be identified to establish a true market price for services provided by airports.
Međutim, u pogledu prvog pristupa (usporedba s „tržišnom cijenom”), Komisija dvoji da se trenutačno može odrediti odgovarajuća referentna točka za definiranje pravih tržišnih cijena usluga koje pružaju zračne luke.
It therefore considers an ex ante incremental profitability analysis to be the most relevant criterion for the assessment of arrangements concluded by airports with individual airlines.
Stoga smatra ex ante analizu inkrementalne profitabilnosti najrelevantnijim kriterijem za procjenu sporazuma koje zračne luke zaključuju s pojedinim zračnim prijevoznicima.
It should be noted that, in general, the application of the MEO principle based on an average price on other similar markets may prove helpful if such a price can be reasonably identified or deduced from other market indicators.
Treba napomenuti da bi se, u načelu, primjena načela ulagača u tržišnom gospodarstvu na temelju prosječne cijene na drugim sličnim tržištima može pokazati korisnom ako se ta cijena može razumno utvrditi ili izvesti iz drugih pokazatelja na tržištu.
However, this method is not as relevant in the case of airport services, as the structure of costs and revenues tends to differ greatly from one airport to another.
Međutim, ta metoda nije toliko važna kao u slučaju usluga zračnih luka jer se struktura troškova i prihoda znatno razlikuje između pojedinih zračnih luka.
This is because costs and revenues depend on how developed an airport is, the number of airlines which use the airport, its capacity in terms of passenger traffic, the state of the infrastructure and related investments, the regulatory framework which can vary from one Member State to another and any debts or obligations entered into by the airport in the past.
To je zato što troškovi i prihodi ovise o stupnju razvijenosti zračne luke, o broju zračnih prijevoznika koji se koriste zračnom lukom, njezina kapaciteta u pogledu putničkog prometa, stanja infrastrukture i povezanih ulaganja, regulatornog okvira koji se može razlikovati od jedne države članice do druge i dugovanjima ili obvezama koje je zračna luka preuzela u prošlosti.
Moreover, as can be seen in the present case, commercial practices between airports and airlines are not always based exclusively on a published schedule of charges.
Nadalje, kao što se može vidjeti u trenutačnom slučaju, poslovne prakse između zračnih luka i zračnih prijevoznika ne temelje se uvijek isključivo na objavljenom cjeniku.
Rather, these commercial relations are very varied.
Nadalje, ti poslovni odnosi različiti su.
They include sharing risks with regard to passenger traffic and any related commercial and financial liability, standard incentive schemes and changing the spread of risks over the term of the agreements.
Oni uključuju podjelu rizika u odnosu na putnički promet i povezanu komercijalnu i financijsku odgovornost, standardne programe poticaja i promjenu raširenosti rizika za vrijeme valjanosti ugovora.
Consequently, one transaction cannot really be compared with another based on a turnaround price or price per passenger.
Zbog toga se jedna transakcija ne može zapravo usporediti s drugom na temelju cijene po putniku.
