The Commission's experience has shown that very small amounts of aid granted subject to certain conditions do not fall under Article 87(1) of the Treaty.
Izkušnje Komisije so pokazale, da pomoči v malih zneskih pod določenimi pogoji ne spadajo v območje uporabe člena 87(1) Pogodbe ES.
Under Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004, aid not exceeding EUR 3000 per beneficiary over three years, where the total amount of such aid is restricted to approximately 0,3 % of annual agricultural output, does not affect trade between Member States and does not distort or threaten to distort competition and therefore does not fall under Article 87(1) of the Treaty.
V skladu z Uredbo št. 1860/2004 pomoč, ki ne presega zgornje meje 3000 EUR na upravičenca v katerem koli obdobju treh let, kadar je skupni znesek take pomoči, odobrene vsem podjetjem v treh letih pod zgornjo mejo, ki jo določi Komisija v višini okrog 0,3 % letne kmetijske proizvodnje, ne vpliva na trgovino med državami članicami in/ali ne izkrivlja ali grozi, da bi izkrivila konkurenco, ter zato ne spada v člen 87(1) Pogodbe.
Under Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004 the same applies to aid granted before entry into force, provided that the requirements of Articles 1 and 3 thereof are fulfilled.
V skladu s členom 5 Uredbe št. 1860/2004 velja to tudi za pomoči pred začetkom veljavnosti, če izpolnjujejo pogoje iz členov 1 in 3.
Article 1 limits the application to the agricultural sector.
Člen 1 omejuje uporabo na kmetijski sektor.
This aid concerns marketing of wine.
Pomoč zadeva trženje vina.
The restrictions of Article 1 (a) to (c) are not applicable.
Omejitve iz člena 1(a) do (c) se ne uporabljajo.
Therefore, up to a maximum amount of EUR 3000 the measures do not constitute aid because not all the criteria of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty have been fulfilled.
Zato ti ukrepi, ki ne presegajo zgornje meje 3000 EUR, ne predstavljajo pomoči, ker ne izpolnjujejo vseh pogojev iz člena 87(1) Pogodbe ES.
In order to avoid double counting, this limit is to be applied only at the level of the winegrowing enterprises.
Da bi se izognili dvojnemu obračunavanju se ta meja uporablja samo na ravni vinogradniških podjetij.
For the reasons stated above, the Commission considers that granting assistance for the acquisition of shares up to the maximum amount of EUR 3000 does not constitute aid, provided that the conditions of Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004 have been met.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenih vzrokov Komisija ugotavlja, da odobritev pomoči za nakup deležev do najvišje zgornje meje 3000 EUR ne predstavlja pomoči, če so izpolnjeni pogoji iz Uredbe št. 1860/2004.
Any amount exceeding that threshold at the level of the beneficiary winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises constitutes aid in its entirety.
Vsak znesek, ki na ravni upravičenih vinogradnikov in vinogradniških podjetij presega ta prag, v celoti predstavlja pomoč.
The Commission concludes that the assistance and interest support granted under this measure constitute operating aid which is not covered by any of the derogations to the general prohibition on such aid and which is therefore incompatible with the common market.
Komisija sklepa, da so podpore in subvencioniranje obresti pomoč, ki ni zajeta v nobeni od izjem od splošne prepovedi pomoči in je zato nezdružljiva s skupnim trgom.
The Commission also finds that Germany implemented the measure unlawfully.
Komisija prav tako ugotavlja, da je Nemčija ukrep izvedla nezakonito.
Where illegally-granted state aid is found to be incompatible with the common market, the natural consequence is that the aid should be recovered in order — as far as possible — to restore the competitive position that existed before the aid was granted.
Če je nezakonito odobrena državna pomoč nezdružljiva s skupnim trgom, je naravna posledica te ugotovitve njeno vračilo, da se vzpostavi konkurenčni položaj, ki je obstajal pred odobritvijo pomoči, kolikor je mogoče.
This decision concerns the scheme in question and must be implemented immediately, including as regards recovery in accordance with Article 14 of Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 of 22 March 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Article 93 of the EC Treaty.
Odločba zadeva trenutni program in jo je treba začeti izvajati takoj, vključno z zahtevo po vračilu pomoči na podlagi člena 14 Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 659/1999 z dne 22. marca 1999 o določitvi podrobnih pravil za uporabo člena 93 Pogodbe ES.
In order to eliminate the direct and indirect advantage derived by the winegrowers, winegrowing enterprises and producer groups, but at the same time avoid double counting of the aid, Germany is to recover the aid from the undertakings to which the state resources were paid.
Da bi odpravili neposredne in posredne prednosti za vinogradnike in vinogradniška podjetja ter organizacije proizvajalcev in se hkrati izognili dvojnemu obračunavanju pomoči, mora Nemčija od podjetij, katerim je izplačala državna sredstva, zahtevati, da vrnejo pomoč.
The obligation to recover the aid from producer groups is, however, without prejudice to the possibility that support of up to EUR 3000 granted to winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises does not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty provided that the conditions of Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004 have been met.
Obveza, da organizacije proizvajalcev vrnejo pomoč, ne posega v možnost, da podpora, odobrena vinogradnikom in vinogradniškim podjetjem v višini do 3000 EUR, ne predstavlja pomoči v smislu člena 87(1) Pogodbe ES, če so izpolnjeni pogoji iz Uredbe št. 1860/2004.
Any amount exceeding that threshold at the level of the beneficiary winegrower or winegrowing enterprise constitutes aid in its entirety and is to be recovered from the producer group whose shares the final beneficiary has acquired.
Vsak znesek, ki presega ta prag na ravni upravičenega vinogradnika ali vinogradniškega podjetja, je v celoti pomoč in ga mora organizacija proizvajalcev, katere deleže je upravičenec kupil, vrniti.
This decision is without prejudice to the possibility for the producer groups concerned to claim a corresponding amount from the winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises or to avail themselves of other legal remedies if such a possibility exists under national law.
Ta odločba ne posega v možnost zadevnih organizacij proizvajalcev, da od vinogradnikov in vinogradniških podjetij zahtevajo ustrezen znesek ali pa uporabijo druga pravna sredstva, če to dopušča nacionalno pravo.
In the district of Cochem-Zell, the aid to be recovered from the winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises is to correspond to the interest relief received by them.
Kar zadeva subvencioniranje obresti, mora pomoč, ki jo morajo v okrožju Cochem-Zell vrniti vinogradniki in vinogradniška podjetja, ustrezati prejeti subvenciji za obresti.
The obligation to recover the aid from the winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises is, however, without prejudice to the possibility that support of up to EUR 3000 does not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty provided that the conditions of Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004 have been met.
Obveza, da vinogradniki in vinogradniška podjetja vrnejo pomoč, ne posega v možnost, da podpora, odobrena vinogradnikom in vinogradniškim podjetjem v višini do 3000 EUR, ne predstavlja pomoči v smislu člena 87(1) Pogodbe ES, če izpolnjuje pogoje iz Uredbe št. 1860/2004.
Any amount exceeding that threshold at the level of the beneficiary winegrower or winegrowing enterprise constitutes aid within the meaning of Article 87 (1) of the EC Treaty in its entirety and is to be recovered in full.
Vsak znesek, ki presega ta prag na ravni upravičenega vinogradnika ali vinogradniškega podjetja, je v celoti pomoč in ga je treba vrniti v celotnem znesku.
This decision is without prejudice to the possibility for the winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises concerned to avail themselves of other legal remedies vis-à-vis the producer groups, if such a possibility exists under national law.
Ta odločba ne posega v možnost zadevnih vinogradnikov in vinogradniških podjetij, da proti organizacijam proizvajalcev uporabijo druga pravna sredstva, če to dopušča nacionalno pravo -
The state aid scheme in the form of direct assistance or interest relief to winegrowers and winegrowing enterprises for investing in shares in producer organisations and in the form of direct assistance for producer organisations, which was unlawfully implemented by the Federal Republic of Germany in breach of Article 88(3) of the EC Treaty, shall — without prejudice to Article 2 — be deemed incompatible with the common market.
Program državne pomoči v obliki neposrednih podpor ali subvencij za obresti za vinogradnike in vinogradniška podjetja za naložbe v deleže organizacij proizvajalcev in v obliki neposrednih podpor v korist organizacij proizvajalcev, ki jo je Zvezna republika Nemčija izplačana nezakonito in tako kršila člen 88(3) Pogodbe ES, je ne glede na člen 2 nezdružljiv s skupnim trgom.
The scheme referred to in Article 1 shall be deemed not to constitute aid insofar as it complies with the conditions of Regulation (EC) No 1860/2004.
Ukrepi iz člena 1, ki jih je upravičencem odobrila Zvezna republika Nemčija, ne predstavljajo pomoči, če izpolnjujejo pogoje iz Uredbe št. 1860/2004.
Within two months from the date of notification of the present decision, the Federal Republic of Germany shall inform all winegrowers and producer organisations concerned with the application of the state aid scheme of the Commission's decision that the state aid scheme referred to in Article 1 is incompatible with the common market.
V dveh mesecih od datuma te odločbe Zvezna republika Nemčija obvesti vsa vinogradniška podjetja in organizacije proizvajalcev, ki jih zadeva uporaba tega programa državne pomoči, da sistem državne pomoči iz člena 1 ni združljiv s skupnim trgom.
The Federal Republic of Germany shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the aid referred to in Article 1 and unlawfully granted is recovered from the beneficiary winegrowers and/or producer organisations, without prejudice to Article 2 or any subsequent claims under national law.
Zvezna republika Nemčija sprejme vse potrebne ukrepe, da bo ne glede na člen 2 ali zahteve iz nacionalne zakonodaje od vinogradniških podjetij ali, kjer je potrebno, od organizacij proizvajalcev zahtevala, da vrnejo pomoč iz člena 1, ki je bila upravičencem odobrena nezakonito.
Within two months from the date of notification of the present decision, the Federal Republic of Germany shall inform the Commission of the identity of those beneficiaries, the aid amounts individually granted and the methods used to determine those amounts.
Zvezna republika Nemčija obvesti Komisijo o identiteti teh upravičencev, o posameznem odobrenem znesku pomoči in načinu določanja teh zneskov v dveh mesecih od datuma obvestila o tej odločbi.
Recovery shall be effected without delay and in accordance with the procedures of national law permitting the immediate and effective implementation of this Decision.
Izterjatev poteka brez zamud in v skladu s postopki nacionalnega prava, ki omogočajo takojšnjo in učinkovito izvajanje odločbe.
The aid to be recovered shall bear interest throughout the period, from the date on which it was first placed at the beneficiaries' disposal until its actual recovery.
Pomoč, ki jo je treba vrniti, zajema obresti za celotno obdobje od datuma, ko jo je upravičenec prvič prejel, do datuma dejanskega vračila.
The interest shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions laid down in Chapter V of Commission Regulation (EC) No 794/2004 of 21 April 2004 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Article 93 of the EC Treaty.
Obresti se obračunajo v skladu z določbami iz poglavja V Uredbe Komisije (ES) št. 794/2004 z dne 21. aprila 2004 o izvajanju Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 659/1999 o določitvi podrobnih pravil za uporabo člena 93 Pogodbe ES.
The Federal Republic of Germany shall inform the Commission, within two months of the date of notification of this Decision, of the measures already taken and planned to comply with it.
Zvezna republika Nemčija obvesti Komisijo o sprejetih in načrtovanih izvedbenih ukrepih v dveh mesecih od datuma obvestila o tej odločbi.
Germany shall submit, within the same period, all documents which demonstrate that recovery proceedings have been initiated against the beneficiaries of the unlawful aid.
Nemčija v istem obdobju predloži vse dokumente, ki dokazujejo, da je bil proti upravičencem te neodobrene pomoči sprožen postopek vračila.

V skladu s sodno prakso Evropskega sodišča predstavlja izboljšanje konkurenčnega položaja podjetja zaradi državne pomoči praviloma izkrivljanje konkurence v odnosu s konkurenčnimi podjetji, ki take pomoči ne prejmejo (primer C-730-79, Philip Morris, PSES 1980, S. 2 671, odstavek 11 in 12).

DESCRIPTION OF THE AID MEASURE
OPIS UKREPA POMOČI
The Netherlands has decided to grant a subsidy to Holland Malt BV under a regional investment scheme ‘Regionale investeringsprojecten 2000’ (hereinafter called the IPR scheme).
Nizozemska se je odločila, da bo podjetju Holland Malt BV dodelila subvencijo v okviru regionalne investicijske sheme „Regionalni investicijski programi za leto 2000“, v nadaljnjem besedilu „shema IPR“.
The regional investment scheme was approved by the Commission in 2000; on 18 February 2002 an amendment to the scheme was also approved, whereby the IPR scheme was applied to the sectors processing and selling agricultural products listed in Annex I to the Treaty.
To regionalno investicijsko shemo je odobrila Komisija leta 2000, 18. februarja 2002 pa je odobrila tudi spremembo sheme, v skladu s katero se shema IPR uporablja tudi za predelavo in trženje kmetijskih proizvodov iz Priloge I k Pogodbi.
The present case concerns a subsidy for an investment project of Holland Malt BV.
Ta primer zadeva subvencijo za investicijski projekt podjetja Holland Malt BV.
Holland Malt BV, hereinafter referred to as ‘Holland Malt’, is a joint venture between the brewery Bavaria NV and Agrifirm, a cooperative association of cereal producers in North Netherlands and Germany.
Holland Malt BV, v nadaljnjem besedilu „Holland Malt“, ki je skupno podjetje pivovarne Bavaria NV in podjetja Agrifirm ter hkrati zadružna zveza pridelovalcev žita na Severnem Nizozemskem in Nemčiji.
The subsidy is for building a malting plant in Eemshaven, in the municipality of Eemsmond.
Subvencija je namenjena gradnji sladarne v kraju Eemshaven v občini Eemsmond.
As a result of the investment, the various stages (storage and processing of malting barley and the production of and trade in malt) will be integrated in one chain.
Ta naložba bo različne faze (skladiščenje in predelava pivskega ječmena ter proizvodnja in trženje slada) združila v eno verigo.
The Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs has decided to subsidize 13,5 % gross (10 % net) of the eligible investments of EUR 55 million, with a maximum of EUR 7425000. Because it concerns a subsidy for an investment project by an undertaking in the sector processing and marketing agricultural products mentioned in Annex I of the Treaty, and the eligible costs of the project are over EUR 25 million, the aid must be specifically notified to the Commission under point 4.2.6 of the Community guidelines for state aid in the agriculture sector (hereinafter referred to as ‘the guidelines’).
Nizozemsko ministrstvo za gospodarstvo se je odločilo, da bo financiralo 13,5 % bruto (10 % neto) upravičenih naložb v višini 55 milijonov EUR oz. največ 7425000 EUR. Ker gre za subvencijo za investicijski projekt podjetja za predelavo in trženje kmetijskih proizvodov iz Priloge I k Pogodbi in ker znašajo upravičeni stroški projekta več kot 25 milijonov EUR, je treba v skladu s točko 4.2.6 Smernic Skupnosti o državni pomoči v kmetijskem sektorju pomoč posebej priglasiti Komisiji.
The decision by Holland Malt to invest was taken after the Dutch government had committed itself to granting a subsidy by letter dated 23 December 2003.
Holland Malt se je odločil za naložbo, potem ko se je nizozemska vlada v dopisu z dne 23. decembra 2003 zavezala, da bo dodelila subvencijo.
The commitment was entered into subject to approval of the aid by the European Commission.
Ta zaveza je bila sprejeta pod pogojem, da bo Evropska komisija odobrila pomoč.
The building activities of Holland Malt in Eemshaven started in February 2004.
Holland Malt je v Eemshavnu začel graditi februarja 2004.
The plant became operational in April 2005.
Sladarna je začela obratovati aprila 2005.
In initiating the procedure under Article 88(2) of the Treaty, the Commission had regard to the following:
Pri sprožitvi postopka na podlagi člena 88(2) Pogodbe je Komisija navedla naslednje pomisleke:
Having established that the measure at this stage would appear to be state aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the Treaty, the Commission investigated whether there were any derogations which meant that the measure could be considered compatible with the common market.
Potem ko je ugotovila, da gre pri ukrepu v tej fazi za državno pomoč v smislu člena 87(1) Pogodbe, je proučila, ali je ukrep združljiv s skupnim trgom na podlagi odstopanj.
In view of the measure's characteristics, the only possible derogation is that in Article 87(3)(c) of the Treaty, under which aid to facilitate the development of certain economic activities or of certain economic areas, where such aid does not adversely affect trading conditions to an extent contrary to the common interest, may be considered compatible with the common market.
Ob upoštevanju lastnosti pomoči je edino možno odstopanje odstopanje iz člena 87(3)(c) Pogodbe, ki določa, da je s skupnim trgom združljiva tista pomoč, ki je namenjena pospeševanju razvoja določenih gospodarskih dejavnosti ali določenih gospodarskih območij, če ne spreminja trgovinskih pogojev v obsegu, ki bi bil v nasprotju s skupnimi interesi.
As the aid was linked to an investment in the processing and marketing of agricultural products, the Commission had to verify whether all requirements of point 4.2 of the guidelines were fulfilled.
Ker je pomoč povezana z naložbo v predelavo in trženje kmetijskih proizvodov, mora Komisija proučiti, ali izpolnjuje vse zahteve iz točke 4.2 Smernic.
The Commission doubted the applicability of Article 87(3)(c) of the Treaty, for the following reasons:
Komisija je iz naslednjih razlogov nasprotovala uporabi člena 87(3)(c) Pogodbe.
Point 4.2.5 of the guidelines states that no aid may be granted for investments in connection with the processing and marketing of agricultural products unless sufficient evidence can be produced that normal market outlets for the products concerned can be found.
Točka 4.2.5 Smernic določa, da ni mogoče dodeliti pomoči za predelavo in trženje kmetijskih proizvodov, če ni mogoče predložiti dovolj dokazov, da je možno najti primerno tržišče za zadevne proizvode.
On the basis of the information available to the Commission at the time of the opening of the procedure, it could not be excluded that the malt market showed overcapacity.
Komisija na podlagi podatkov, ki jih je imela na voljo pri sprožitvi postopka, ni izključila, da ima trg slada presežne zmogljivosti.
