Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008 provides that aid to SMEs for participation in fairs is compatible with the common market if the aid intensity does not exceed 50 % of eligible costs and if the eligible costs are limited to those incurred for renting, setting up and running the stand for the first participation of an undertaking in any particular fair or exhibition.
Stoga gornji prag utvrđen u točki 14.3. nije mogao biti premašen.
According to paragraph 106 of the 2007-2013 Guidelines, no State aid was approved for large enterprises under technical assistance.
Stoga su u slučaju predmetne mjere uvjeti utvrđeni u točki 14.
In the Opening Decision, the Commission expressed doubts regarding the compatibility of a measure (RP 2) with the internal market in the relevant period [76].
Smjernica 2000.–2006. ispunjeni.
Measure RP 2
Tiringija je udruženju Landesvereinigung Thüringer Milch e.V.
Under measure RP 2, Rhineland-Palatinate granted financial support to processing and marketing companies for participation in forums to share knowledge between businesses, competitions, exhibitions and fairs.
(LVTM) dodijelila financijsku potporu za sudjelovanje u izložbama namijenjenima trgovcima i potrošačima te za organizaciju konferencija za širenje znanstvenih informacija (podmjera TH 3, vidjeti točku 100.).
Eligible costs were those incurred in setting up an exhibition stand (see paragraph 125).
Osim toga, subvencionirana je objava činjeničnih informacija o proizvođačima iz te regije (podmjera TH 4, vidjeti točku 101.).
Aid intensity was limited to 10 % of proven costs, but not more than EUR 5200 per business and event (see paragraph 119).
Sudjelovanje u izložbama, organizacija trgovinskih konferencija i objava činjeničnih informacija čine tehničku pomoć u smislu točke 14.
The aid intensity of 10 % under measure RP 2 does not exceed the maximum aid intensity value of 50 % laid down in Article 5(b) of Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008.
Smjernica 2000.–2006.
The subsidised costs (costs related to setting up an exhibition stand) correspond to the eligible costs in accordance with Article 5(b) of Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008, which state that renting, setting up and running a stand are eligible for aid (see paragraphs 294 and 295).
Subvencionirani troškovi (vidjeti točke 100. i 101.) odgovaraju prihvatljivim troškovima u skladu s točkom 14.1.
However, these rules state that only the first participation of an undertaking in any particular fair or exhibition is eligible.
Njemačka smatra da te dvije podmjere nisu bile ograničene na pojedinu skupinu, već se njima općenito podupirao cijeli sektor mlijeka i mliječnih proizvoda (vidjeti točke 105. i 108.).
In their comments of 20 September 2013, Germany provided a table containing the number of businesses which were granted subsidies in the period 2003 – 2012 for repeated participation in a particular fair or exhibition, together with the respective aid amounts (see paragraph 123).
Osim toga, njemačka tijela potvrdila su i da iznosi dodijeljeni kao potpora nisu premašivali gornji prag utvrđen u točki 14.3. (vidjeti točke 105. i 109.).
This table shows that the average funding amounts for repeated participation in a particular fair or exhibition per subsidised company and year was between EUR 294 and EUR 5113 in the period 2007-2012.
Stoga su u slučaju predmetne mjere uvjeti utvrđeni u točki 14.
In its comments dated 13 January 2017, Germany also stated that the two undertakings Hochwald Foods GmbH and MUH Arla eG had received aid under this sub-measure (see paragraph 124).
Smjernica 2000.–2006. ispunjeni.
MUH Arla came into existence in 2012 as a result of the merger of Milch-Union Hocheifel (MUH) and the Scandinavian dairy conglomerate Arla Foods.
Međutim, Komisija smatra da, čak i ako za pružatelja usluge nije nastala prednost, mljekarska gospodarstva imaju korist od mjera osposobljavanja na mljekarskim gospodarstvima i organizacije strukovnih natjecanja te da oni čine oblik tehničke pomoći u skladu s točkom 14.
In 2011, MUH employed around 800 staff and had a turnover of around EUR 693 million [77].
Smjernica 2000.–2006.
The Hochwald group employs more than 1900 staff and achieved a turnover of around EUR 1,44 billion in 2015 [78].
Subvencionirani troškovi (vidjeti točke 111. i 112.) odgovaraju prihvatljivim troškovima u skladu s odredbama točke 14.1.
Given these figures, neither MUH Arla eG nor Hochwald Foods GmbH fell within the definition of a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) set out in point 9 of Chapter II of the 2007-2013 Guidelines [79].
Njemačka je navela da kumulativni iznos potpore u okviru obiju podmjera nije premašivao 100000 EUR tijekom tri godine (vidjeti točku 118.).
In accordance with point 106 of the 2007-2013 guidelines, they should not, therefore, have received any aid (see paragraph 296).
Komisija zaključuje da su mjere BY 3, BY 10, BW 4, BB 1, BB 3, HE 2, HE 3, HE 9, NI 5, NI 6, NI 7, NW 4, NW 5, NW 6, RP 1, RP 5, SL 2, SL 5, TH 3, TH 4, TH 9 i TH 10, osim potpore dodijeljene poduzetniku Nordmilch eG u okviru mjere NI 6 (vidjeti točku 290.), ispunile relevantne zahtjeve utvrđene u Smjernicama 2000.–2006. te da su stoga spojive s unutarnjim tržištem u razdoblju 2001.–2006.
The requirements of Chapter IV.K. of the 2007-2013 Guidelines, in conjunction with Article 5(b) of Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008 respectively, are thus fulfilled only for cases in which processing and marketing businesses falling under the definition of SMEs received under measure RP 2 aid for the first participation in a particular fair or exhibition.
Komisija zaključuje i da potpora dodijeljena poduzetniku Nordmilch eG u okviru mjere NI 6 u razdoblju 2002.–2003. nije ispunila relevantne uvjete Smjernica 2000.–2006. te da stoga nije bila spojiva s unutarnjim tržištem u razdoblju 2001.–2006.
The requirements of Chapter IV.K. of the 2007-2013 Guidelines, in conjunction with Article 5(b) of Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008 respectively, are not fulfilled for aid granted under measure RP 2 to undertakings not falling under the definition of SMEs, in particular to MUH Arla eG and Hochwald Foods GmbH (see paragraph 305).
Pružanje tehničke podrške u poljoprivrednom sektoru u razdoblju od 2007. nadalje
The requirements of Chapter IV.K. of the 2007-2013 Guidelines, in conjunction with Article 5(b) of Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 800/2008 respectively, are also not fulfilled for aid granted under measure RP 2 in respect of repeated participation in a particular fair or exhibition (see paragraph 301).
Kad je riječ o razdoblju od 2007. nadalje, odredbe o spojivosti tehničke podrške s unutarnjim tržištem izmijenjene su.
The Commission concludes that aid under measure RP 2 met the relevant conditions of the 2007-2013 Guidelines and was therefore compatible with the internal market in the period from 2007 only in the cases referred to in paragraph 306.
Pružanje tehničke podrške uređeno je poglavljem IV.K Smjernica 2007.–2013.
In the cases referred to in paragraphs 307 and 308, aid measure RP 2 did not meet the relevant conditions of the 2007-2013 Guidelines and was therefore not compatible with the internal market in the period from 2007.
(293) U skladu s točkom 105.
State aid for quality products in the period 2001-2006
Smjernica 2007.–2013.
Measures to encourage the production and marketing of quality agricultural products implemented between 2001 and 2006 must meet the conditions specified under point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines.
Komisija može ocijeniti državnu potporu za pružanje tehničke podrške društvima koja prerađuju i stavljaju na tržište poljoprivredne proizvode spojivom s člankom 87. stavkom 3. točkom (c) Ugovora [74] ako ispunjuje sve uvjete iz članka 5.
Point 13.2 contains a non-exhaustive list of eligible activities in this area.
Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001.
Aid may be granted for consultancy and similar support, including technical studies, feasibility and design studies and market research, to be given for activities related to the development of quality agricultural products, including:
U skladu s točkom 106. istih Smjernica za velika poduzeća nije odobrena nikakva državna potpora.
the introduction of quality assurance schemes such as the ISO 9000 or 14000 series, systems based on hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) or environmental audit systems,
Člankom 5. točkom (b) Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001 predviđeno je da bruto potpora za sudjelovanje u sajmovima i izložbama ne smije premašiti 50 % dodatnih troškova nastalih iznajmljivanjem, postavljanjem i vođenjem štanda.
the costs of training personnel to apply quality assurance and HACCP systems.
Ta se iznimka primjenjuje samo na prvo sudjelovanje poduzeća u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi.
Aid may also be granted to cover the cost of the charges levied by recognised certifying bodies for the initial certification of quality assurance and similar systems.
U skladu s točkom 106.
Points 3, 4 and 5 of point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines provide for special conditions and limitations.
Smjernica 2007.–2013. velikim poduzećima nije odobrena državna potpora u okviru tehničke pomoći.
The Commission takes the view that no aid should be granted in respect of routine in-process quality controls and routine product controls undertaken by the manufacturer, irrespective of whether they are undertaken on a voluntary basis or on a compulsory basis as a part of HACCP or similar systems.
Komisija je u Odluci o pokretanju postupka izrazila sumnje u pogledu spojivosti jedne mjere (RP 2) s unutarnjim tržištem u relevantnom razdoblju [76].
Aid should only be granted in respect of controls undertaken by or on behalf of third parties, such as the competent regulatory authorities, or bodies acting on their behalf, or independent organisms responsible for the control and supervision of the use of denominations of origin, organic labels, or quality labels.
Mjera RP 2
The total amount of aid that can be granted for SMEs under this section must not exceed 50 % of eligible costs or EUR 100000 per beneficiary over a period of three years, depending on which amount is higher (see point 13.2).
U okviru mjere RP 2 Porajnje-Falačka dodijelilo je financijsku potporu društvima za preradu i stavljanje na tržište za sudjelovanje u forumima za dijeljenje znanja među poduzećima, natjecanjima, izložbama i sajmovima.
Baden-Württemberg, Lower Saxony and Thuringia (sub-measures BW 10, BW 11, NI 1 and TH 5) granted financial support for improving the quality of the delivered milk through advice and training of dairy producers, the compilation and updating of databases and checks of dairy producers, parallel with the introduction of the ‘Quality Management QM Milk’ quality assurance systems (see paragraph 126).
Prihvatljivi troškovi bili su troškovi nastali postavljanjem izložbenog štanda (vidjeti točku 125.).
According to the German authorities, aid intensity amounted to a maximum of 100 % of eligible costs (see paragraph 129).
Intenzitet potpore bio je ograničen na 10 % dokazanih troškova, ali potpora nije iznosila više od 5200 EUR po poduzeću i događanju (vidjeti točku 119.).
In the Opening Decision, the Commission expressed doubts regarding the compatibility of the abovementioned sub-measures with the internal market in the relevant period [80].
Intenzitet potpore od 10 % u okviru mjere RP 2 ne premašuje vrijednost najvećeg intenziteta potpore od 50 % utvrđenu u članku 5. točki (b) Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001 i članku 27.
The two sub-measures were carried out by the Milchprüfring Baden-Württemberg (BW 10) and the Milchwirtschaftlicher Verein Baden-Württemberg (BW 11) in favour of milk-producing agricultural enterprises which took part in the ‘QM-Milch’ quality assurance system (see paragraphs 131 and 132).
Uredbe (EZ) br. 800/2008.
The execution of audits at dairy farms and the cost of initial certification by a recognised certification body (BW 10) as well as the costs of consultancy tasks in connection with the introduction of the quality assurance system (BW 11) were subsidised (see paragraphs 133 and 134).
Subvencionirani troškovi (troškovi povezani s postavljanjem izložbenog štanda) odgovaraju prihvatljivim troškovima u skladu s člankom 5. točkom (b) Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001 i člankom 27.
The subsidised costs thus correspond to the eligible costs laid down in point 13.2 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines.
Uredbe (EZ) br. 800/2008, u kojima se navodi da su iznajmljivanje, postavljanje i vođenje štanda prihvatljivi za potporu (vidjeti točke 294. i 295.).
Support was not provided for quality and product checks carried out routinely by the manufacturers during the production process, which are excluded in accordance with point 13.3.
Međutim, u tim se pravilima navodi da je prihvatljivo samo prvo sudjelovanje poduzetnika u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi.
According to the German authorities, the average expenditure was EUR 106 per beneficiary (see paragraph 135), well below the maximum allowable amount under point 13.2 of EUR 100000 per beneficiary over a period of three years.
Njemačka je u svojim primjedbama od 20. rujna 2013. dostavila tablicu s brojem poduzeća kojima su u razdoblju 2003.–2012. dodijeljene subvencije za ponovno sudjelovanje u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi, zajedno s odgovarajućim iznosima potpore (vidjeti točku 123.).
The conditions set out in point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines are thus fulfilled in the case of sub-measures BW 10 and BW 11.
U toj se tablici navodi da su u razdoblju 2007.–2012. prosječni iznosi financiranja za ponovno sudjelovanje u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi po subvencioniranom društvu i godini iznosili od 294 EUR do 5113 EUR.
Lower Saxony granted the LVMN financial support for the implementation of a quality assurance system for milk producers (‘QM-Milch’).
Njemačka je u svojim primjedbama od 13. siječnja 2017. navela i da su dva poduzetnika, Hochwald Foods GmbH i MUH Arla eG, primila potporu u okviru te podmjere (vidjeti točku 124.).
Point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines therefore applies.
Poduzetnik MUH Arla nastao je 2012. spajanjem zadruge Milch-Union Hocheifel (MUH) i skandinavskog mljekarskog konglomerata Arla Foods.
The costs of preparatory measures for the implementation of the QM-Milch system (consulting services) as well as the costs for the coordination of the QM-Milch system and the creation of a database were subsidised (see paragraph 137).
MUH je 2011. imao oko 800 zaposlenika i ostvario je promet od oko 693 milijuna EUR [77].
Funding amounted to EUR 12,78 per case for consulting services and EUR 35 per farmer within 3 years for farm audits (see paragraph 138), which is well below the upper threshold specified in point 13.2 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines.
Grupa Hochwald ima više od 1900 zaposlenika, a 2015. ostvarila je promet od oko 1,44 milijarde EUR [78].
Germany has confirmed that the checks in the farm audits were carried out by or on behalf of third parties where the Landeskontrollverband Niedersachsen acts as an independent supervisory institution (see paragraph 139).
S obzirom na navedene brojke, ni MUH Arla eG ni Hochwald Foods GmbH nisu obuhvaćeni definicijom malog i srednjeg poduzeća (MSP) utvrđenom u točki 9. poglavlja II.
This meets the requirements laid down in point 13.3.
Smjernica 2007.–2013.
The measure in question thus fulfils the requirements set out in point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines.
Stoga u skladu s točkom 106.
Thuringia granted the Thüringer Verband für Leistungs- und Qualitätsprüfungen in der Tierzucht (TVLEV) financial support for the introduction of a quality assurance system for milk producers (see paragraph 140).
Smjernica 2007.–2013. nisu trebali primiti nikakvu potporu (vidjeti točku 296.).
Point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines therefore applies.
Stoga su zahtjevi poglavlja IV.K Smjernica 2007.–2013., u vezi s člankom 5. točkom (b) Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001 odnosno člankom 27.
According to the German authorities, the measure was introduced in 2004 (see paragraph 140).
Uredbe (EZ) br. 800/2008, ispunjeni samo u slučajevima kada su društva za preradu i stavljanje na tržište obuhvaćena definicijom MSP-ova u okviru mjere RP 2 primila potporu za prvo sudjelovanje u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi.
According to Germany, in the period 2004-2006, producers were only subsidised with respect to initial certification.
Zahtjevi poglavlja IV.K Smjernica 2007.–2013., u vezi s člankom 5. točkom (b) Uredbe (EZ) br. 70/2001 odnosno člankom 27.
The average aid granted to individual producers amounted to approximately EUR 83 (see paragraph 141).
Uredbe (EZ) br. 800/2008, nisu ispunjeni kad je riječ o potpori dodijeljenoj u okviru mjere RP 2 poduzetnicima koji nisu obuhvaćeni definicijom MSP-ova, konkretno poduzetnicima MUH Arla eG i Hochwald Foods GmbH (vidjeti točku 305.).
The subsidised costs correspond to the costs eligible under point 13.2 and the amount of aid is far below the ceiling set in the same point.
Zahtjevi poglavlja IV.K Smjernica 2007.–2013., u vezi s člankom 5. točkom (b) Uredbe Komisije (EZ) br. 70/2001 odnosno člankom 27.
Measure TH 5 thus fulfils the requirements set out in point 13 of the 2000-2006 Guidelines.
Uredbe Komisije (EZ) br. 800/2008, nisu ispunjeni ni kad je riječ o potpori dodijeljenoj u okviru mjere RP 2 za ponovno sudjelovanje u pojedinom sajmu ili izložbi (vidjeti točku 301.).
The Commission concludes that the aid assessed above (BW 10, BW 11, NI 1 and TH 5) did meet the relevant conditions of the 2000-2006 Guidelines and was therefore compatible with the internal market in the period 2001-2006.
Komisija zaključuje da je potpora u okviru mjere RP 2 ispunila relevantne uvjete iz Smjernica 2007.–2013. i da je stoga u razdoblju od 2007. nadalje bila spojiva s unutarnjim tržištem samo u slučajevima iz točke 306.
Recovery
U slučajevima iz točki 307. i 308. mjera potpore RP 2 nije ispunila relevantne uvjete iz Smjernica 2007.–2013. i stoga u razdoblju od 2007. nadalje nije bila spojiva s unutarnjim tržištem.
Article 17(1) of Regulation (EU) 2015/1589 states that the powers of the Commission to recover aid are subject to a limitation period of 10 years.
Državna potpora za kvalitetne proizvode u razdoblju 2001.–2006.
According to Article 17(2) of that same Regulation, any action taken by the Commission with regard to unlawful aid interrupts this limitation period.
Mjere za poticanje proizvodnje i stavljanja na tržište kvalitetnih poljoprivrednih proizvoda provedene između 2001. i 2006. moraju ispunjavati uvjete navedene u točki 13.
Further to Germany's submission of the 2010 annual report on State aid in the agricultural sector, the Commission asked Germany by letter of 28 November 2011 to provide additional information on the scheme.
Smjernica 2000.
This action by the Commission interrupted the limitation period.
2006.
In line with the ten-year limitation period referred to in paragraph 334, this Decision therefore relates to the period from 28 November 2001.
(312) Točka 13.2. sadržava neiscrpan popis prihvatljivih aktivnosti u tom području.
The Commission finds that the aid granted to Nordmilch eG in the period 2002-2003 under measure NI 6 (see paragraph 289) is not compatible with the internal market.
Potpora se može dodijeliti za savjetodavnu i sličnu podršku, uključujući tehničke studije, studije izvedivosti i projektne studije te istraživanje tržišta, koja se pruža za aktivnosti povezane s razvojem kvalitetnih poljoprivrednih proizvoda, uključujući:
This aid must be recovered.
uvođenje programa osiguranja kvalitete kao što su serije ISO 9000 ili 14000, sustava koji se temelje na analizi opasnosti i kritičnim kontrolnim točkama (HACCP) ili sustava za ekološku reviziju,
The Commission also finds that the aid granted under measure RP 2 to undertakings not falling under the definition of SMEs, in particular to MUH Arla eG and Hochwald Foods GmbH (see paragraph 307) and the aid granted in respect of repeated participation in a particular fair or exhibition (see paragraph 308) are not compatible with the internal market.
troškove osposobljavanja osoblja za primjenu sustava osiguranja kvalitete ili sustava HACCP-a.
Based on the suspensive effect of the formal procedure under Article 108(3) TFEU, the Commission is examining measure RP 2 from 1 January 2007 up to 17 July 2013, the date on which the Commission notified Germany of its decision to initiate proceedings under Article 108(2) TFEU.
Potpora se može dodijeliti i za pokriće troškova naknada koje naplaćuju priznata tijela za izdavanje odobrenja za prvo odobrenje sustava osiguranja kvalitete i sličnih sustava.
CONCLUSION
Točkom 13. podtočkama 3., 4. i 5.
The Commission finds that Germany has unlawfully implemented the aid schemes in question in question in breach of Article 108(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Smjernica 2000.
This aid is, with the exception of the aid cases mentioned in the following recital, compatible with the internal market (see paragraphs 289, 309 and 333).
2006. predviđeni su posebni uvjeti i ograničenja.
The Commission finds that the aid granted under measure NI 6 to Nordmilch eG and the aid granted under measure RP 2 to MUH Arla eG and Hochwald Foods GmbH, and the aid granted under measure RP 2 in respect of repeated participation in a particular fair or exhibition (see paragraphs 290 and 310) are not compatible with the internal market.
Komisijin je stav da se nikakva potpora ne bi trebala dodijeliti za rutinske kontrole kvalitete tijekom postupka i rutinske kontrole proizvoda koje provodi proizvođač, bez obzira na to provode li se one dobrovoljno ili obvezno kao dio HACCP-a ili sličnih sustava.
This aid must be recovered,
Potpore bi se trebale dodjeljivati samo za kontrole koje provode treće osobe ili koje se provode u ime trećih osoba, kao što su nadležna regulatorna tijela, ili tijela koja djeluju u njihovo ime, ili neovisna tijela odgovorna za kontrolu i nadzor upotrebe oznaka izvornosti, oznaka organskog podrijetla ili oznaka kvalitete.
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Ukupni iznos potpore koja se može dodijeliti MSP-ovima na temelju ovog odjeljka ne smije premašivati 50 % prihvatljivih troškova ili 100000 EUR po korisniku tijekom razdoblja od tri godine, ovisno o tome koji je iznos veći (vidjeti točku 13.2.).
Article 1
Baden-Württemberg, Donja Saska i Tiringija (podmjere BW 10, BW 11, NI 1 i TH 5) dodijelili su financijsku potporu za poboljšanje kvalitete isporučenog mlijeka putem savjetovanja i osposobljavanja proizvođača mlijeka, izrade i ažuriranja baza podataka te provjera proizvođača mlijeka, uz istodobno uvođenje sustava osiguranja kvalitete „Upravljanje kvalitetom QM-Milch” (vidjeti točku 126.).
State aid granted unlawfully by Germany between 28 November 2001 and 31 December 2006 (measures BY 3, BY 10, BW 4, BB 1, BB 3, HE 2, HE 3, HE 9, NI 5, NI 6, NI 7, NW 4, NW 5, NW 6, RP 1, RP 5, SL 2, SL 5, TH 3, TH 4, TH 9, TH 10, BW 10, BW 11, NI 1 and TH 5) or between 1 January 2007 and 17 July 2013 (measure RP 2) in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU is compatible with the internal market, with the exception of that referred to in Article 2.
Njemačka tijela navela su da je najveći intenzitet potpore iznosio 100 % prihvatljivih troškova (vidjeti točku 129.).
Article 2
Komisija je u Odluci o pokretanju postupka izrazila sumnje u pogledu spojivosti prethodno navedenih podmjera s unutarnjim tržištem u relevantnom razdoblju [80].
State aid granted by Germany in 2002 and 2003 to Nordmilch eG as part of measure NI 6, in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU, is incompatible with the internal market.
Te su dvije mjere provodili Milchprüfring Baden-Württemberg (BW 10) i Milchwirtschaftlicher Verein Baden-Württemberg (BW 11) u korist poljoprivrednih poduzeća koja proizvode mlijeko i koja su sudjelovala u sustavu osiguranja kvalitete „QM-Milch” (vidjeti točke 131. i 132.).
