Moreover, Article 2(4) of the Maritime Cabotage Regulation defines PSOs as obligations which the ship-owner in question, if he were considering his own commercial interest, would not assume or would not assume to the same extent or under the same conditions.
Odlukom 36/6 od 1. rujna 2011.
As mentioned above, RAS considers that in this case PSOs have been imposed in terms of requiring Saremar to charge affordable rates on the two cabotage routes to mainland Italy.
Saremaru je povjereno prometovanje na linijama Golfo Aranci (Olbia) – Civitavecchia Vado Ligure – Porto Torres u razdoblju od 15. svibnja do 15. rujna 2012..
The table below details the specific fares to be charged by Saremar on the routes, as laid down by the entrustment acts.
RAS je iznio argument da je odluka o nastavku prometovanja na tim linijama u 2012. temeljena na procjenama o održivosti i rezultatima koji su zabilježeni u 2011.
For 2012, given that no precise fares were mentioned in the entrustment acts, the fares proposed by Saremar to RAS were considered.
Prometovanje je na obje linije u stvarnosti započelo 1. lipnja 2012.
Table 3
Od srpnja 2012. kada je na snagu stupila nova Konvencija između talijanske države i CIN-a, Tirreniju je na tim dvjema linijama zamijenila Tirrenia/CIN.
Passenger fares (deck passage) laid down by the entrustment acts
Novom se Konvencijom utvrđuje minimalna učestalost usluge i minimalni kapaciteti kao i maksimalne cijene za zimsku sezonu te niže cijene za stanovnike Sardinije i posebne kategorije tijekom čitave godine.
(Decision 25/69/EC)
RAS iznosi argument da prometovanje na nekim linijama, uključujući i dvije linije koje se ocjenjuju, u skladu s novom Konvencijom, u ljetnoj sezoni ne podliježe obvezi javne usluge u pogledu cijene karata kako bi se osigurala cjenovna pristupačnost usluge.
EUR 21 from 15 June - 15 July and 1 - 15 September;
Doista, prema navodima NCA-a, Ministarstvo infrastrukture i prometa potvrdilo je da, iako se u novoj Konvenciji doista utvrđuju konkretne (maksimalne) cijene karata tijekom godine, uključujući i razdoblje između lipnja i rujna, kao i posebne cijene za stanovnike Sardinije, prometovanje na tim linijama tijekom tog razdoblja nije obuhvaćeno područjem primjene nove Konvencije pa se stoga ne primjenjuju ni obveze javne usluge.
EUR 35 from 16 July - 31 August.
Prema tome CIN od 1. lipnja do 30. rujna na linijama Genova - Porto Torres i Civitavecchia – Olbia prometuje po tržišnim uvjetima.
EUR 35 from 22 June - 15 July and 1 - 15 September;
Komisija napominje da je u lipnju 2012.
(Decision 48/65/EC)
Naime, u ljetnoj sezoni 2012.
Saremar was to apply the low season fare charged in 2011 (i.e. EUR 21).
CIN i Moby bi na linijama Civitavecchia - Olbia, Genova - Porto Torres i Genova - Olbia zadržali razinu cijena karata kako bi ponovno ostvrili prosječni prihod po jedinici koji je Moby ostvarivao u ljeto 2009. (izuzev povećanja koje bi se moglo izravno propisati rastu troška brodskog goriva).
EUR 21 from 16 January to 30 May, June and July (Mondays to Thursdays) and from 3 September to 31 December 2012;
U ljeto 2013.
EUR 25 June and July (Fridays to Sundays), 30 and 31 July, 1 and 2 September;
CIN i Moby zadržali bi prosječni prihod po jedinici iz 2012.
EUR 35 from 1 to 31 August.
Osim toga, u ljetnim sezonama 2012. i 2013. na stanovnike bi se primjenjivale posebne diskontne cijene.
EUR 38 (EUR 33 for residents) from 15 June to 13 July;
U prilog tome ide i činjenica da su talijanske vlasti već odlučile da nije bilo potrebe Tirreniji nametati obveze u pogledu visine cijena karata, s obzirom na tržišne uvjete u ljetnoj sezoni.
EUR 44 (EUR 38 for residents) from 14 July to 2 September.
Komisija ne može prihvatiti taj argument.
The Commission notes that the entrustment acts do not impose other PSOs as concerns the frequency, capacity, or regularity of the (mixed) services offered by Saremar, with the possible exception of Decision 48/65/EC on the start-up of the service on the Olbia — Civitavecchia route in the 2012 winter season, which laid down that Saremar was required to operate the route daily by cruise ferries.
Prometovanje na tim dvjema linijama u ljetnoj sezoni 2012. povjereno je Saremaru temeljem Odluke 36/6 od 1. rujna 2011. koja je donesena prije početka sklapanja rezervacija za ljetnu sezonu 2012.
Nor have the Italian authorities submitted to the Commission in the course of the investigation that other requirements have been imposed on Saremar which had not been outlined by the aforementioned entrustment acts.
Prema tome, RAS u trenutku povjeravanja usluge nije mogao predvidjeti da će strane dići cijene karata, vjerojatno kršeći tako uvjete Odluke NCA-a.
The Commission considers that the obligation to apply affordable fares, even taken in isolation, could be qualified as a PSO and therefore that the public interest objective pursued in this case could be legitimate, notably in the context of the increase in prices of passenger transport services to the island in the summer of 2011, to the extent that it can be considered that the market did not already offer a comparable service at those fares.
Osim toga, Komisija smatra da čak i ako bi argument RAS-a da CIN nije bio obvezan zadržati pristupačne cijene karata u ljetnoj sezoni bio prihvatljiv, to bi značilo da bi obveza javne usluge u pogledu pristupačnih cijena bila opravdana u ljetnoj sezoni, a ne tijekom razdoblja od lipnja do svibnja 2012.
In order to verify the existence of the PSOs entrusted to Saremar and whether it was necessary to compensate the latter for the supplementary costs incurred in meeting these obligations, the Commission must therefore examine:
Taj argument, prema tome, ne bi opravdao nametanje obveze javne usluge u zimskoj sezoni.
first, whether the service would be inadequate if its provision were left to the market forces alone in the light of the public service requirement concerning affordable fares imposed by the Member State, and
Tablica 4.
second, whether the operator was indeed entrusted with public service obligations which were clearly defined.
Cijene putničkih karata (prijevoz na palubi) na liniji Golfo Aranci (Olbia) – Civitavecchia
On the grounds detailed hereunder, the Commission concludes that those conditions have not been fully respected in the present case.
21 EUR od 15. lipnja do 15. srpnja i od 1. do 15. rujna;
2011 and 2012 summer seasons
35 EUR od 16. srpnja 2011. do 31. kolovoza 2011.
In summer 2011, when Saremar was entrusted with the operation of the two routes, four other operators provided regular service on the Civitavecchia – Olbia route and three on the Genova — Porto Torres route.
21,68 EUR (21,46 EUR) za stanovnike).
Moreover, Tirrenia was offering similar services to those provided by Saremar and which met the rather vague obligations laid down by the act(s) of entrustment.
21 EUR za radne dane u lipnju i srpnju i od 3. do 15. rujna;
Indeed, as detailed above, until July 2012 Tirrenia provided mixed services on both the Genova – Porto Torres and Civitavecchia – Olbia routes under a public service regime subject to PSOs concerning the type of vessel, the frequency of service and reduced rates to Sardinian residents and special categories under the initial Conventions (see recital 14 above).
25 EUR za vikende u lipnju i srpnju i za 30. i 31. srpnja te 1. i 2. rujna
Originally the initial Convention, which remained in force until June 2012, also laid down PSOs in terms of fares so as to guarantee affordability of the services in question.
35 EUR u kolovozu.
In view of the fact that certain routes, and notably the two routes under assessment, ‘ensured particularly high traffic levels’, the Italian authorities decided to suspend the obligations concerning fares imposed to Tirrenia in the summer season (with the exception of fares for residents and other obligations concerning frequencies and type of vessels) so as to ensure that Tirrenia enjoys full commercial freedom as regards prices offered to its clients.
21,68 EUR (21,46 EUR).
The same commercial freedom was granted to Tirrenia/CIN by the new Convention with regard to fares on the two routes in question as of July 2012.
Tablica 5.
Therefore, the choice to leave Tirrenia and Tirrenia/CIN free to set prices in the summer season when high traffic levels are recorded and several other shipping companies operate those routes is not a random choice of the Italian authorities, but the result of their assessment as regards the adequacy of the services provided by market forces in that period of the year.
Cijene putničkih karata (prijevoz na palubi) na liniji Genova (Vado Ligure) – Porto Torres
The fact that RAS itself initially considered that Saremar could operate the two routes offering affordable prices and reaching economic equilibrium suggests that market conditions on those routes are such that market forces are capable of offering satisfactory services, notably in summer when traffic is particularly high.
35 EUR (29,75 EUR) od 22. svibnja do 15. srpnja i od 1. do 15. rujna;
On the other hand, no objective justification has been provided by RAS as to why the services already provided by Tirrenia under the initial Convention, which had been already prolonged at the time of Saremar's entrustment, would not have been adequate to guarantee territorial continuity.
40 EUR (36 EUR) od 16. srpnja 2011. do 31. kolovoza 2011.
The argument raised by RAS as regards the price increase recorded in 2011 is of no avail in this context.
53,63 EUR (37,18 EUR)
In fact, the NCA Decision on the increase in prices to/from Sardinia only sanctioned private operators for the violation of Article 101 TFEU.
35 EUR (30 EUR) od 1. do 14. lipnja i od 3. do 15. rujna;
The NCA Decision clarified that whereas Tirrenia had also increased prices to a certain extent in the reference period, such increase was significantly lower than that of private competitors.
38 EUR (33 EUR) od 15. lipnja do 13. srpnja;
As to RAS's argument that the imposition of PSOs would be justified by the uncertainty concerning the privatisation process of Tirrenia, the Commission notes that the initial Convention was prolonged until completion of the privatisation process already in 2010.
44 EUR (38 EUR) od 14. srpnja do 2. rujna.
Consequently, any delay in the sale of the business branch operating the public services could not have caused any interruption in the operation of the relevant routes.
Prema tome, Komisija smatra da talijanska tijela nisu dokazala postojanje istinske potrebe za javnom uslugom u vezi s nametanjem Saremaru obveze da primijeni pristupačne cijene vožnje u ljetnim sezonama 2011. i 2012.
As concerns the 2012 summer season, by Decision 36/6/EC of 1 September 2011 Saremar was entrusted with the operation between 15 May and 15 September 2012 of the Golfo Aranci (Olbia) – Civitavecchia and Vado Ligure — Porto Torres routes.
U svakom slučaju, cijene vožnje koje je Saremar primjenjivao na liniji Olbia – Civitavecchia bile su usporedive, a povremeno i više od onih koje su već nudile Tirrenia i Tirrenia/CIN dok nije bilo zahtjeva javne usluga u pogledu cjenovnih razina.
RAS submitted that the decision to resume operation of the routes in 2012 was based on viability perspectives, supported by the results recorded in summer 2011.
Zimska sezona
Both routes were effectively operated as of 1 June 2012.
2011.
As of July 2012, when the new Convention between the Italian State and CIN entered into force, Tirrenia's presence on the two routes was replaced by Tirrenia/CIN.
Saremar je obustavio uslugu na liniji Olbia – Civitavecchia od listopada do prosinca 2011.
The new Convention sets out minimum frequencies and capacity as well as maximum prices for the winter season and reduced rates for Sardinian residents and special categories throughout the year.
Usluga je potom ponovno pokrenuta u zimi 2012. od 16. siječnja 2012. do 31. svibnja 2012.
RAS defends that the operation in the summer season of certain routes under the new Convention, including the two routes subject to the assessment, is not subject to PSOs on fares so as to guarantee affordability of the service.
Istodobno, Tirrenia je prometovala na toj liniji u skladu s obvezom pružanja javne usluge koja je bila nametnuta inicijalnom Konvencijom, a koja se osobito odnosila na cijene karata koje je Tirrenia morala nuditi.
Indeed, according to the NCA, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport had confirmed that, although the new Convention did lay down specific (maximum) fares throughout the year, including June — September, as well as special rates for Sardinian residents, the operation of the routes during this period fell outside of the scope of the new Convention, and therefore no PSOs applied.
RAS nije dostavio jasno opravdanje kojim bi se opravdala nužnost obveza javnih usluga vezanih uz cijene karata koje bi Saremar trebao primjenjivati na predmetnoj liniji u zimskoj sezoni.
Thus CIN operates the Genova — Porto Torres and Civitavecchia — Olbia routes on commercial terms from 1 June – 30 September.
Štoviše, usporedba cijena karata koje je nudio Saremar i onih koje je nudila Tirrenia pokazuje da cijene Saremara nisu bile niže.
On top of what already underlined above in recitals 193-194, the Commission notes that in June 2012 the NCA authorised the Tirrenia/CIN merger by means of a conditional decision.
Prema tome, ne može se smatrati da su obveze glede cijena karata koje su bile nametnute Saremaru ispunjene u korist potreba javnih usluga koje nisu bile ispunjene obvezama koje su već bile nametnute Tirreniji.
The Decision imposed specific conditions on the parties, inter alia, concerning the fares to be charged on the routes in question.
Tablica 6.
In particular, in the summer 2012 season, CIN and Moby would maintain on the Civitavecchia — Olbia, Genova — Porto Torres and Genova — Olbia routes a level of fares such as to maintain the average unit revenue obtained by Moby in summer 2009 (except an increase directly attributable to the increase in bunker costs).
21 EUR.
In summer 2013, CIN and Moby would maintain the 2012 average unit revenue.
19,79 EUR (EUR 18,16 EUR) niska sezona;
In addition, special discounted rates would apply in the 2012 and 2013 summer seasons to residents.
20,61 EUR (19,98 EUR) srednja sezona;
It is true that when RAS entrusted Saremar with the operation of the two routes by means of Decision 36/6/EC of 1 September 2011, it could not know the possible conditions that the NCA would have imposed.
Prijevoz tereta
However, the fact remains that in September 2011 Tirrenia was still obliged to provide year round mixed services on the routes under the prolongation of the old Convention, and a plurality of operators were present on the routes in the summer season.
U pogledu cijena vožnje za prijevoz tereta, Komisija primjećuje da je Tirreniji/CIN-u povjerena obaveza da na dvjema predmetnim linijama pružaju miješane usluge.
By the same token, the Italian authorities had already decided that there was no need to impose fare obligations on Tirrenia, given the market conditions in the summer season.
Štoviše, 2011. pet operatora (uključujući Saremar) pružalo je usluge prijevoza tereta na liniji Olbia – Civitavecchia, a tri na liniji Vado Ligure - Porto Torres.
On 18 June 2013 the NCA opened an investigation into non-observance in summer 2012 by Tirrenia and Moby of the relevant conditions imposed by the NCA Decision on the Tirrenia/CIN merger.
RAS nije dostavio nikakvo objašnjenje zašto cijene za prijevoz tereta koje su nudili Tirrenia i ostali operatori na predmetnim linijama nisu bile takve da zadovolje potrebe Sardinije za prijevozom tereta, niti je Komisiji dao bilo kakvu usporednu informaciju o cijenama teretnog prijevoza koje su primjenjivali Saremar i njegovu konkurenti na predmetnim linijama.
RAS and Saremar have claimed that this would suffice to prove that the fares charged by competitors on the routes in question were not such as to satisfy the affordability requirement imposed by RAS.
Štoviše, rast cijena koje su naplaćivali privatni operatori na predmetnim linijama i koje je NCA odobrila odnosi se samo na 2011. i ograničen je na cijene u putničkom prijevozu.
The Commission cannot accept this argument.
Prema tome, Komisija smatra da talijanske vlasti nisu dokazale postojanje stvarne potrebe za javnom uslugom vezano uz nametanje obveza javnih usluga Saremaru u pogledu prijevoza tereta.
In addition, the Commission considers that even if RAS's argument that CIN was under no obligation to maintain affordable fares in the summer season were to be accepted, this would mean that PSOs on affordable fares would be justified in the summer season, rather than during January — May 2012.
U pogledu definicije javne misije u aktima o povjeravanju, Komisija primjećuje sljedeće:
Moreover, a comparison between Tirrenia and Saremar's (passenger) prices on the two routes shows that fares on the Olbia — Civitavecchia route in the summer season were comparable.
RAS nije odabrao konkretne linije na kojima bi se obavljala usluga već je to prepušteno operatoru.
Table 4
Odlukom 12/28 o prometovanju na toj liniji u ljetnoj sezoni 2012.
EUR 21 from 15 June to 15 July and 1-15 September;
cijene karata za liniju Genova (Vado Ligure) – Porto Torres u 2011. utvrđene su Odlukom 27/4.
EUR 35 from 16 July 2011 to 31 August 2011.
Komisija stoga primjećuje da čak i ako se u nekim aktima o povjeravanju do određene mjere uređuju cijene karata koje će se naplaćivati, jasno je da se te odredbe odnose tek na dio Saremarovih aktivnosti.
EUR 21,68 (EUR 21,46) for residents).
Kasnije u postupku istrage, RAS je Komisiji podnio stvarne cijene karata koje je predložio Saremar i koje su bile implicitno odobrene Odlukom 25/69 i Odlukom 27/4.
EUR 21, in June and July weekdays and 3-15 September;
Usprkos tome, Komisija primjećuje da je Saremaru ostavljeno široko diskrecijsko pravo da prilagodi cijene karata.
EUR 25, in June and July weekends and 30, 31 July and 1, 2 September
Saremar je zadržao pravo da prilagodi cijene karata kako bi osigurao ekonomsku održivost i zadovoljstvo korisnika, uz obvezu prethodnog prijavljivanja novih cijena RAS-u.
EUR 35 in August.
Komisija napominje da su usluge od općeg gospodarskog interesa po svojoj prirodi usluge koje su odgovor na tržišni neuspjeh s obzirom da ih tržište samo po sebi ne pruža na razini kakvu zahtijeva javno tijelo.
EUR 21,68 (EUR 21,46).
I dok Komisija smatra da se u nekim slučajevima pružateljima javne usluge može omogućiti određena razina fleksibilnosti glede određivanja cijena, kada se navodna obveza pružanja javne usluge odnosi upravo na potrebu da se ponudi pristupačna cijena karata, javna tijela moraju utvrditi maksimalne cijene karata koje operator može primijeniti ili tu fleksibilnost mora vezati uz objektivne kriterije koji omogućuju da se s razumnim stupnjem sigurnosti može odrediti koja se razina cijene karata može smatrati pristupačnom ili pak uz prethodni postupak odobravanja od strane tijela koje je operatoru povjerilo pružanje predmetne usluge.
Table 5
U ovom slučaju, međutim, odredbe o primjenjivim cijenama karata u aktima o povjeravanju nisu dovoljno precizne da bi ih se moglo smatrati jasno definiranim obvezama javne usluge (izuzev Odluke 25/69 i Odluke 27/4).
Passenger fares (deck passage) on the Genova (Vado Ligure) – Porto Torres
Manevarski prostor Saremara nije bio vezan uz objektivne kriterije ili barem uz kriterije koji su se primjenjivali na objektivan način.
EUR 35 (EUR 29,75) from 22 May to 15 July and 1-15 September;
Zahtjev da se usluga na linijama obavlja tako da se postigne ekonomska ravnoteža očito nije ispunjen, a zadovoljstvo korisnika (prema saznanjima Komisije) nije mjereno.
EUR 40 (EUR 36) from 16 July 2011 to 31 August 2011
Isto tako, točno je da je Saremar morao obavijestiti RAS o promjenama glede razina cijena karata, ali nigdje ne stoji da je suglasnost RAS-a bila uvjet za primjenu izmijenjenih cijena karata.
EUR 53,63 (EUR 37,18)
Saremar je u postupku građanske parnice na sudu u Genovi tvrdio da je morao podići cijene karata kako bi se nadoknadili gubici na dvije predmetne linije.
EUR 35 (EUR 30) 1 - 14 June and 3-15 September;
Međutim, u spisu predmeta nema dokaza da je poduzeće, pokušavajući ostvariti cilj održivosti, u bilo kojem trenutku predložilo rast cijena karata koji je RAS odbio.
EUR 38 (EUR 33) from 15 June to 13 July;
Upravo suprotno, dokumenti u spisu predmeta pokazuju da je Saremar doista, barem što se tiče prometovanja na liniji Porto Torres – Vado Ligure, povisio cijene karata kako bi osigurao da poduzeće pokrije troškove.
EUR 44 (EUR 38) from 14 July to 2 September
Prema tome, čini se da je poduzeće moglo slobodno određivati cijene karata.
Therefore, the Commission considers that the Italian authorities did not demonstrate the existence of a genuine public service need as regards the imposition upon Saremar of an obligation to apply affordable fares in the summer season of 2011 and 2012.
Naposljetku, iz analize akata o povjeravanju proizlazi da Saremaru nisu nametnute nikakve obveze glede cijena karata za prometovanje na liniji Olbia – Civitavecchia od 1. svibnja do 30. svibnja 2012.: cijena koja je odobrena Odlukom 48/65 primjenjivala se do kraja travnja 2012., dok se cijena koja je odobrena Odlukom 12/28 primjenjivala od lipnja 2012.
In any case, the fares applied by Saremar on the Olbia — Civitavecchia route were comparable and at times higher to those already offered by Tirrenia and Tirrenia/CIN in the absence of public service requirements relating to fares level.
S obzirom da prometovanje na liniji nije obustavljeno, proizlazi da cijene Saremara nisu bile regulirane, barem tijekom svibnja 2012.
Winter season
S obzirom na gore navedeno, Komisija smatra da Saremaru nisu povjerene jasne obveze glede razina cijena karata, osim u slučaju usluge koja je obavljana 2011. temeljem Odluke 25/69 i Odluke 27/4.
In 2011 the service on Olbia — Civitavecchia route was discontinued by Saremar from October to December 2011.
Prema tome, Komisija smatra da talijanske vlasti nisu dokazale da naknada ispunjava prvi Altmark-kriterij.
The service was then resumed in winter 2012, from 16 January 2012 to 31 May 2012.
U skladu s trećim Altmark-kriterijem naknada za izvršenje obveze javne usluge ne smije premašiti iznos neophodan za pokrivanje svih ili dijela troškova koji su nastali pri izvršenju tih obveza, uzimajući u obzir relevantne prihode i razumnu dobit za njihovo izvršavanje.
At the same time Tirrenia was operating this route under the PSOs imposed by the initial Convention, which notably also concerned the fares that Tirrenia had to offer.
Budući da je Komisija već zaključila da RAS nije dokazao postojanje stvarne potrebe za javnom uslugom na dvjema predmetnim linijama tijekom relevantnog razdoblja, Komisija smatra da Saremar nije imao pravo na primitak bilo kakve naknade na temelju jurisprudencije Altmark za troškove pretrpljene u prometovanju dvjema linijama.
No clear justification has been put forward by RAS to justify the necessity of public service obligations relating to the fares to be applied on the route in question by Saremar in the winter season.
Međutim, RAS tvrdi da je naknada niža od gubitaka koje je Saremar pretrpio u prometovanju tim dvjema linijama u 2011. i 2012. i da, s obzirom da je bila obračunata u skladu s odvojenim knjigama za te linije, ona ne može koristiti bilo kojoj drugoj djelatnosti Saremara.
Moreover, a comparison between Saremar's fares and those offered by Tirrenia shows that Saremar's fares were not lower.
Stoga treba smatrati da je ta naknada u skladu s trećim Altmark-kriterijem.
Therefore, the fares obligations imposed on Saremar cannot be considered as having been catered to the satisfaction of public service needs that were not met by the obligations already imposed on Tirrenia.
Međutim, Komisija napominje da, s obzirom da ne postoji jasna definicija obveza koje su Saremaru određene za cijelo razdoblje povjeravanja, nije moguće obračunati troškove koji proizlaze iz tih obveza.
Table 6
Zbog toga Komisija mora zaključiti da treći Altmark-kriterij također nije ispunjen.
EUR 21.
S obzirom da nisu ispunjena prva tri Altmark-kriterija, Komisija donosi zaključak da naknada dodijeljena Saremaru temeljem Regionalnog zakona 15/2012 Saremaru pruža gospodarsku prednost.
EUR 19,79 (EUR 18,16) low season;
Zaključak
