Indeed, some carriers, formerly clients of SEAH, decided not to use the services of Airport Handling whilst Airport Handling concluded contracts with carriers not previously served by SEAH.
Društvo SEA dodaje da, čak i da je prihvaćeno da nepostojanje prijenosa imovine sa SEAH-a na Airport Handling nije dostatno da bi se zaključilo o nepostojanju gospodarskog kontinuiteta, za okolnosti transakcije na kojoj se temelji osnivanje društva Airport Handling, kao cjeline, ne može se smatrati da imaju učinak izbjegavanja naloga za povrat.
In addition, according to SEA, within the meaning of Council Directives 78/660/EEC and 83/349/EEC on consolidated financial statements, transposed into Italian legislation by Legislative Decree No 127 of 9 April 1991, failing any power of control and management by SEA of Airport Handling following the transfer of its participation to the Trust, Airport Handling is no longer part of the SEA group for accounting purposes and therefore its budget is not consolidated with that of SEA.
SEA navodi da je najavom SEAH-a da će društvo prestati poslovati u milanskim zračnim lukama i pokretanjem likvidacije SEAH-a stvoreno stvarno tržišno natjecanje u kojem su zračni prijevoznici koji su poslovali u milanskim zračnim lukama mogli odabrati pružatelja zemaljskih usluga na temelju komparativne ocjene ponuda koje su dostavili razni pružatelji usluga.
Furthermore, in order to speed up the entry of third parties in the capital of Airport Handling, SEA and the Trustee on 26 January 2015 signed an ‘implementing regulation under Article 20 of the Trust Deed’, with the aim of conferring to the Trustee the responsibility to look for a third-party investor.
Prema mišljenju društva SEA upravo je nakon tog postupka nadmetanja Airport Handling uspješno sklopio ugovore sa zračnim prijevoznicima potpuno neovisno od društva SEA.
The Trustee and SEA decided to appoint BNP Paribas as independent advisor for the assignment.
Naime, neki prijevoznici, bivši klijenti SEAH-a, odlučili su ne koristiti se uslugama društva Airport Handling, a Airport Handling sklopio je ugovore s prijevoznicima koje prethodno nije opsluživao SEAH.
BNP Paribas assisted Airport Handling in the preparation of the offer for the sale of shares, took contact with several investors potentially interested to enter the capital of Airport Handling and carried out meetings with potential investors.
Uz to, prema mišljenju društva SEA, u smislu direktiva Vijeća 78/660/EEZ i 83/349/EEZ o konsolidiranim financijskim izvještajima koje su u talijansko zakonodavstvo prenesene Zakonodavnim dekretom br. 127 od 9. travnja 1991., s obzirom na to da SEA nije imala moć kontrole i upravljanja nad društvom Airport Handling nakon prijenosa udjela na Trust, Airport Handling više nije dio grupe SEA za računovodstvene potrebe i stoga njegov proračun nije konsolidiran s proračunom društva SEA.
SEA added that once a private investor has acquired at least 30 % of Airport Handling, SEA will consider searching for investors interested to take over the majority shareholding in the company.
Nadalje, kako bi ubrzali ulazak trećih osoba u kapital društva Airport Handling, SEA i upravitelj potpisali su 26. siječnja 2015. „provedbena pravila na temelju članka 20.
On State resources and imputability
Ugovora o trustu” u cilju dodjele upravitelju odgovornosti za skrb o trećem ulagaču.
SEA is of the view that the fact that Airport Handling is a public undertaking is not sufficient to conclude that its resources are State resources within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Upravitelj i SEA odlučili su imenovati BNP Paribas neovisnim savjetnikom u tu svrhu.
In addition, following the setting up of the Trust, the financial resources of Airport Handling are not under the control of SEA, therefore it cannot be claimed that they are State resources within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
BNP Paribas pružio je potporu društvu Airport Handling pri izradi ponude za prodaju dionica, kontaktirao je s nekoliko ulagača koji su bili potencijalno zainteresirani za ulazak u kapital društva Airport Handling i održao je sastanke s potencijalnim ulagačima.
In this respect, SEA adds that:
SEA je dodala da će, kad privatni ulagač stekne najmanje 30 % društva Airport Handling, razmotriti traženje zainteresiranih ulagača za preuzimanje većinskog udjela u društvu.
A first increase of capital, amounting to EUR 3,7 million, was approved by the general meeting of shareholders of Airport Handling on 27 August 2014.
Državna sredstva i pripisivost državi
On the same date, the Trustee, as sole shareholder of Airport Handling issued 20000 SFPs for a total value of EUR 20 million.
Uz to, nakon osnivanja Trusta SEA ne kontrolira financijska sredstva društva Airport Handling; stoga se ne može tvrditi da su ona državna sredstva u smislu članka 107. stavka 1.
The SFPs were subscribed and paid in full by SEA on 28 August 2014.
Ugovora.
SEA underlines that, since their transfer, the financial resources of Airport Handling have remained at all times under the control of the Trustee, the sole shareholder of Airport Handling.
U tom pogledu SEA dodaje:
In SEA’s view the above shows that the public shareholder of SEA (Municipality of Milan), cannot exercise — directly or indirectly — any influence on the use of financial instruments in respect of Airport Handling and that throughout the duration of the Trust, such resources will remain under the control of the Trustee.
Prvo povećanje kapitala u iznosu od 3,7 milijuna EUR odobrila je glavna skupština društva Airport Handling 27. kolovoza 2014.
In any event, as a result of the establishment of the Trust, SEA lost its power to appoint the members of the Board of Directors of Airport Handling.
Istog je dana Trustu dodijeljen cijeli udio društva SEA u SEAH-u.
Comments from an interested party
Tog je dana, za sve pravne svrhe, upravitelj postao jedini dioničar društva Airport Handling,
The Commission received comments from an interested party who demanded that neither its identity nor its comments be disclosed to any third party.
SEA ističe da je od trenutka prijenosa upravitelj, jedini dioničar društva Airport Handling, imao neprekinutu kontrolu nad njegovim financijskim sredstvima.
COMMENTS FROM ITALY ON THE INTERESTED PARTIES COMMENTS
Prema mišljenju društva SEA prethodno navedenim dokazuje se da javni dioničar društva SEA (općina Milano) ne može, izravno ili neizravno, utjecati na upotrebu financijskih instrumenata u odnosu na društvo Airport Handling i da će tijekom trajanja Trusta ta sredstva kontrolirati upravitelj.
Italy commented on the observations submitted in the framework of the investigation by the Trust and SEA.
U svakom slučaju, kao rezultat osnivanja Trusta, SEA je izgubila ovlast imenovanja članova Upravnog odbora društva Airport Handling.
Italy supported in full the observations submitted by the above mentioned interested parties and underlined that they evidenced on one side the lack of any interference from the Italian authorities on SEA’s activity and the latter’s decision to invest in Airport Handling, and, on the other side, that Airport Handling does not continue the economic activity of SEAH.
Primjedbe zainteresirane strane
ASSESSMENT
Komisija je zaprimila primjedbe zainteresirane strane koja je zatražila da se njezin identitet i njezine primjedbe ne objave trećim stranama.
In this case, the Commission had to assess two distinct matters: First, the possible transfer of the recovery obligation stemming from the recovery decision from SEA Handling to Airport Handling; second, possible aid inherent in SEA’s EUR 25 million capital injection in Airport Handling.
PRIMJEDBE ITALIJE NA PRIMJEDBE ZAINTERESIRANIH STRANA
Economic continuity and transfer of the recovery obligation
Italija je dala svoje primjedbe na opažanja koja su u okviru istrage dostavili Trust i SEA.
Based on settled case law, unlawful and incompatible aid must be recovered from the undertakings that actually benefited from it.
Italija je u potpunosti podržala opažanja koja su dostavile prethodno navedene zainteresirane strane te je istaknula da su one, s jedne strane, dokazale nepostojanje bilo kakvog uplitanja talijanskih nadležnih tijela u poslovanje društva SEA i njegove odluke o ulaganju u Airport Handling, i, s druge strane, da Airport Handling nije nastavio obavljati gospodarsku djelatnost SEAH-a.
In case of insolvent beneficiaries of State aid, the recovery obligation can be fulfilled by registration of the liability relating to the repayment of the aid in the schedule of liabilities, provided that the aid beneficiary exits the market.
OCJENJIVANJE
The Court held that ‘where the undertaking which received the unlawful aid is insolvent and a company has been created to continue some of the activities of the insolvent undertaking, the pursuit of those activities may, where the aid concerned is not recovered in its entirety, prolong the distortion of competition brought about by the competitive advantage which that company enjoyed in the market as compared with its competitors.
U ovom je predmetu Komisija morala ocijeniti dva različita pitanja: prvo, mogući prijenos obveze povrata koja proizlazi iz odluke o povratu s društva SEA Handling na Airport Handling, drugo, moguću potporu sadržanu u dokapitalizaciji društva Airport Handling od 25 milijuna EUR koju je provela SEA.
Accordingly, such a newly created company may, if it retains that advantage, be required to repay the aid in question.
Gospodarski kontinuitet i prijenos obveze povrata
That is the case where it is established that that company continues genuinely to derive a competitive advantage because of the receipt of that aid, especially where it acquires the assets of the company in liquidation without paying the market price in return or where it is established that the effect of that company’s creation is circumvention of the obligation to repay the aid’.
Na temelju ustaljene sudske prakse nezakonitu potporu koja nije spojiva s unutarnjim tržištem mora vratiti onaj poduzetnik koji je u stvarnosti od nje ostvario korist.
In the context of the transfer of assets from an aid beneficiary to another company that continues the former’s activities, the Court confirmed that the following factors may be taken into consideration for the assessment of economic continuity between the two companies: the scope of the transfer (assets and liabilities, continuity of the workforce, bundled assets, etc.); the transfer price; the identity of the shareholders or owners of the acquiring firm and of the original firm; the moment at which the transfer is carried out (after the start of the investigation, the initiation of the procedure or the final decision); and, lastly, the economic logic of the transaction.
U slučaju korisnika državne potpore u stečaju obveza povrata može se ispuniti unosom obveze s naslova povrata potpore u popis obveza, pod uvjetom da korisnik potpore izađe s tržišta.
According to case law, the aforementioned factors may be taken into account to varying degrees, according to the specific features of the case at hand.
Sud je smatrao da „ako je poduzeće koje je primilo nezakonitu potporu u stečaju te je osnovano društvo kako bi se nastavio dio djelatnosti tog poduzeća u stečaju, nastavkom te djelatnosti moglo bi se, ako dotična potpora nije u potpunosti vraćena, nastaviti narušavanje tržišnog natjecanja do kojeg je došlo zbog konkurentske prednosti koju je to društvo uživalo na tržištu u odnosu na svoje konkurente.
It follows that the Commission is not required to take into account the whole of those factors, as is demonstrated by use of the expression ‘may be taken into consideration’.
U skladu s time, ako takvo novoosnovano društvo zadrži tu prednost, od njega se može tražiti povrat predmetne potpore.
In order to decide whether there is economic continuity between SEAH and Airport Handling and the latter may be held liable for the reimbursement of the incompatible aid granted to the former, the Commission applied the aforementioned indicators to the specific circumstances of the case at issue.
To je osobito slučaj kada se utvrdi da to društvo zadržava stvarno uživanje konkurentske prednosti povezane s korištenjem tih potpora, osobito kada ono stekne imovinu društva u likvidaciji a da pritom ne plati kao protučinidbu cijenu u skladu s tržišnim uvjetima ili kada se utvrdi da je učinak osnivanja takvog društva zaobilaženje obveze povrata navedenih potpora.”
Scope of the transfer
U kontekstu prijenosa imovine s korisnika potpore na drugo društvo koje nastavlja obavljati djelatnosti korisnika potpore Sud je potvrdio da se sljedeći čimbenici mogu uzeti u obzir za ocjenu gospodarskog kontinuiteta između dvaju društava: opseg prijenosa (imovina i obveze, preuzimanje radne snage, vezana imovina itd.); cijena prijenosa; identitet dioničara ili vlasnika poduzeća stjecatelja i izvornog poduzeća; trenutak obavljanja prijenosa (nakon početka istražnog postupka, pokretanja postupka ili donošenja konačne odluke); i, na kraju, ekonomska logika transakcije.
Transfer of workforce and work contracts
Prema sudskoj praksi prethodno navedeni čimbenici mogu se uzeti u obzir u različitoj mjeri, u skladu s posebnostima predmetnog slučaja.
After SEAH was put into liquidation, many of its former employees were reemployed by Airport Handling, constituting initially the majority of the latter’s workforce.
Iz toga slijedi da Komisija nije obvezna uzeti u obzir sve te čimbenike, kako se dokazuje upotrebom izraza „mogu se uzeti u obzir”.
Therefore, it is relevant to analyse whether this situation is not indicative of a circumvention of the recovery decision.
Kako bi se odlučilo postoji li gospodarski kontinuitet društava SEAH i Airport Handling i može li se potonje društvo smatrati odgovornim za povrat nespojive potpore dodijeljene SEAH-u, Komisija je primijenila prethodno navedene pokazatelje na određene okolnosti ovog predmeta.
To that effect, it should be assessed whether the process that led to that outcome did not amount to transferring SEAH’s workforce into Airport Handling while preserving its core features.
Opseg prijenosa
It is all the more relevant since for a ground handling company, workforce is the primary resource necessary to operate.
Prijenos radne snage i ugovora o radu
According to Italy there is no continuity of workforce between SEAH and Airport Handling as work contracts were terminated by SEAH and staff was employed by Airport Handling under new contracts, based on substantially different conditions.
Nakon pokretanja likvidacije SEAH-a, brojni njegovi bivši zaposlenici zaposleni su u društvu Airport Handling, pri čemu su na početku činili većinu radne snage potonjeg društva.
This view was supported by both Airport Handling and SEA.
Stoga je važno analizirati je li ta situacija pokazatelj izbjegavanja odluke o povratu.
In Italy’s view the agreement signed by SEA, SEAH and the trade unions on 4 November 2013 should not be construed to have guaranteed former employees of SEAH the rights acquired under the previous contracts with SEAH.
U tu bi svrhu trebalo ocijeniti je li se postupak koji je doveo do navedenog ishoda sastojao od prijenosa radne snage SEAH-a na društvo Airport Handling i jesu li pritom očuvane njegove temeljne značajke.
Such agreement would be an essentially programmatic document which was subsequently replaced by the agreements signed on 4 June 2014.
Navedeno je još važnije jer je za društvo za pružanje zemaljskih usluga radna snaga primarno sredstvo potrebno za rad.
It would be evident from the wording of those agreements that former employees of SEAH were not guaranteed previously acquired rights but were rather re-employed by Airport Handling under new conditions.
Prema mišljenju Italije ne postoji kontinuitet radne snage između SEAH-a i društva Airport Handling jer je SEAH raskinuo ugovore o radu te se osoblje u društvo Airport Handling zaposlilo na temelju novih ugovora koji su se temeljili na materijalno drukčijim uvjetima.
Based on information obtained in the formal investigation procedure, the Commission assessed (i) the process whereby a significant part of SEAH’s workforce was reemployed by Airport Handling, (ii) and the agreements with trade unions on the reemployment of SEAH’s workforce.
To su stajalište podržali Airport Handling i SEA.
Firstly, as regards the process, it should be noted at the outset that there was no de jure transfer of work contracts from SEAH to Airport Handling.
Prema mišljenju Italije sporazum koji su SEA, SEAH i sindikati potpisali 4. studenoga 2013. ne bi se trebao tumačiti kao da su njime bivšim zaposlenicima SEAH-a bila zajamčena prava koja su oni stekli na temelju prethodni ugovora sa SEAH-om.
Contracts with SEAH were legally terminated and new contracts were concluded with Airport Handling.
Taj je sporazum, u biti, programski dokument koji je naknadno zamijenjen sporazumima potpisanima 4. lipnja 2014.
Moreover, work contracts were neither automatically nor globally transferred from SEAH to Airport Handling.
Iz teksta tih sporazuma očito je da bivšim zaposlenicima SEAH-a nisu bila zajamčena prethodno stečena prava, nego da su u društvu Airport Handling ponovno zaposleni prema novim uvjetima.
In fact, no transfer whatsoever of work contracts took place.
Na temelju informacija pribavljenih tijekom službenog istražnog postupka Komisija je ocijenila i. postupak u kojem je znatan dio radne snage SEAH-a ponovno zaposlen u društvu Airport Handling, ii. i sindikalne sporazume o ponovnom zapošljavanju radne snage SEAH-a.
Rather, the former company terminated the work contracts prior to reemployment of part of the workers by the latter on different conditions.
Prvo, u pogledu postupka potrebno je odmah napomenuti da nije bilo prijenosa de jure ugovora o radu sa SEAH-a na Airport Handling.
Secondly, as regards the scope of the transfer, the following is to be noted: On 22 April 2014, when SEAH initiated the laid-off workers’ mobility scheme, its workforce was […] [8] Business secret.

Drugo, u pogledu opsega prijenosa potrebno je napomenuti sljedeće: Kad je SEAH 22. travnja 2014. pokrenuo program mobilnosti za otpuštene radnike, njegova je radna snaga bila […] [8] Poslovna tajna.

Nevertheless, it is also to be noted that Airport Handling’s workforce, at least in the early phase after starting operations, consisted almost exclusively of former SEAH staff.

Thirdly, as regards the material conditions of the re-employment, the Commission notes that contracts signed by Airport Handling with former SEAH employees differed both formally and materially from the previous contracts with SEAH in particular in that different conditions apply concerning:

Međutim, potrebno je napomenuti i da se radna snaga društva Airport Handling, barem u ranoj fazi nakon početka poslovanja, sastojala gotovo isključivo od bivšeg osoblja SEAH-a.
the material changes to employment conditions are encompassing:
Treće, u pogledu materijalnih uvjeta ponovnog zapošljavanja Komisija napominje da su se ugovori koje je Airport Handling potpisao s bivšim SEAH-ovim zaposlenicima formalno i materijalno razlikovali od prethodnih ugovora sa SEAH-om, posebno u primjeni različitih uvjeta kako slijedi:

Lastly, also the circumstances under which the terms of employment were negotiated between the parties involved and ultimately agreed in this case indicate that employment conditions changed materially: SEA, SEAH and Airport Handling negotiated separately with trade unions and reached separate agreements with them.

It took Airport Handling and trade unions more than 8 months to reach an agreement on the terms of the recruitment procedure, the legal and financial content of employment contracts, welfare policy and work organisation.

According to the Trust, SEAH workers initially opposed the changes to which trade unions representing the workers had consented in the agreement of June 2014.
% u odnosu na troškove rada SEAH-a koji su u oba slučaja posljedica promjena mjerodavnog sustava nacionalnih kolektivnih ugovora i dopunskog korporativnog ugovora; udjel uvjeta potonjeg ugovora u troškovima rada smanjen je za 50 %.
Workers rejected these changes in a referendum.
Konačno, i okolnostima u kojima su uključene strane u ovom predmetu pregovarale o uvjetima zapošljavanja i u konačnici se usuglasile upućuje se na to da su se uvjeti zapošljavanja materijalno promijenili: SEA, SEAH i Airport Handling zasebno su pregovarali sa sindikatima i postigli su s njima zasebne dogovore.
According to documentation provided by the Trust, Trade Unions then only agreed to the new employment terms after Airport Handling accepted to introduce certain clarifications to aforesaid agreement.
Društvu Airport Handling i sindikatima trebalo je više od osam mjeseci za postizanje dogovora o uvjetima postupka zapošljavanja, pravnom i financijskom sadržaju ugovora o radu, politici skrbi i organizaciji rada.
The Commission notes that Airport Handling negotiated separately with the trade unions and, despite initial disagreements, it succeeded in implementing the above described changes.
Prema mišljenju predstavnika Trusta SEAH-ovi su se radnici na početku protivili promjenama na koje su sindikati koji su predstavljali radnike pristali u sporazumu iz lipnja 2014.
As was described in recital 38 above, the agreement between Airport Handling and trade unions, of 4 June 2014 has not been altered materially after trade unions rejected it in a referendum, where they demanded a number of clarifications to that agreement.
Radnici su te promjene odbili na referendumu.
In light of the above considerations, the actual workforce transfer was neither complete nor did it imply any replication in substance of employment conditions prevailing under the SEAH contracts.
Prema dokumentaciji koju je dostavio Trust sindikati su zatim pristali na nove uvjete zapošljavanja tek nakon što je Airport Handling prihvatio da će unijeti određena pojašnjenja u navedeni sporazum.
This finding is not affected by the agreements between respectively SEA, SEAH and Airport Handling with the trade union organisations concerning the workforce.
Komisija napominje da je Airport Handling zasebno pregovarao sa sindikatima i da je unatoč početnim neslaganjima uspio provesti prethodno opisane promjene.
