on the eligibility of central Asian countries under Decision 2006/1016/EC granting a Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank against losses under loans and loan guarantees for projects outside the Community
o upravičenosti srednje-azijskih držav v skladu s Sklepom 2006/1016/ES o odobritvi jamstva Skupnosti Evropski investicijski banki za izgube pri posojilih in jamstvih za projekte zunaj Skupnosti
In accordance with Article 2 of Decision 2006/1016/EC [1], for countries listed in Annex I and marked with an asterisk (*) and for others not listed in Annex I, eligibility for European Investment Bank (EIB) financing under Community guarantee is decided by the Council on a case by case basis in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 181a(2) of the Treaty.
V skladu s členom 2 Sklepa Sveta 2006/1016/ES [1] o upravičenosti držav, naštetih v Prilogi I in označenih z zvezdico („*“), ter drugih držav, ki jih ni v Prilogi I, do financiranja Evropske investicijske banke (EIB) na podlagi jamstva Skupnosti odloči Svet od primera do primera v skladu s postopkom iz člena 181a(2) Pogodbe.
Annex I to Decision 2006/1016/EC includes five central Asian countries, namely Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, among the countries marked with an (*).
V Prilogi I Sklepa 2006/1016/ES je med državami, označenimi z *, naštetih pet srednjeazijskih držav, in sicer Kazahstan, Kirgiška republika, Tadžikistan, Turkmenistan in Uzbekistan.
In the EU Strategy for a new partnership with central Asia, adopted by the European Council in its meeting of 21 and 22 June 2007, it is highlighted that the EIB should play an important role in financing projects of interest to the EU in central Asia.
V strategiji EU za novo partnerstvo s Srednjo Azijo, ki jo je sprejel Evropski Svet na svojem zasedanju 21. in 22. junija 2007, je poudarjeno, da bi morala EIB prevzeti pomembno vlogo pri financiranju projektov, zanimivih za EU in Srednjo Azijo.
Since the macroeconomic conditions prevailing in the central Asian countries, and in particular the situation regarding external finances and debt sustainability, have improved in recent years as a result of strong economic growth and prudent macroeconomic policies, those countries should be allowed access to financing from the EIB,
Prevladujoče makroekonomske razmere v državah Srednje Azije, zlasti pa stanje na področju zunanjih financ in vzdržnosti dolga, so se v zadnjih letih izboljšale zaradi visoke gospodarske rasti in preudarnih makroekonomskih politik, je treba tem državam omogočiti dostop do financiranja EIB –
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan shall be eligible for EIB financing under Community guarantee in accordance with Decision 2006/1016/EC.
Kazahstan, Kirgiška republika, Tadžikistan, Turkmenistan in Uzbekistan so upravičeni do financiranja EIB na podlagi jamstva Skupnosti v skladu s Sklepom 2006/1016/ES.
This Decision shall take effect on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Ta sklep začne učinkovati tretji dan po objavi v Uradnem listu Evropskih skupnosti.

Posredovala jih je Italiji in ji dala možnost odgovora nanje, ki ga je prejela z dopisom z dne 21. septembra 2007.
According to the notification, the beneficiary of the aid is NGP, a firm located in Acerra, Campania (Italy).
V priglasitvi je navedeno, da je upravičenec do pomoči podjetje NGP, ki se nahaja v Acerri v Campagni.
NGP was created in February 2003 through the divestment of the production of polyester polymer (polymerisation) from Montefibre, a producer of polyester fibre also located in Acerra.
Podjetje NGP je bilo ustanovljeno februarja 2003 z razdružitvijo dejavnosti proizvodnje polimera poliestra (polimerizacija) od podjetja Montefibre, proizvajalca poliestrskih vlaken, ki se prav tako nahaja v Acerri.
Polyester polymer is an intermediate product used, among other things, in the production of polyester fibre.
Polimer poliestra je vmesni izdelek, ki se med drugim uporablja v proizvodnji poliestrskih vlaken.
The assets of NGP comprised two production plants as well as a thermoelectric power station, some ancillary facilities and a research centre.
Aktivo podjetja NGP sta sestavljala dva proizvodna obrata in termoelektrarna, nekaj pomožnih obratov in raziskovalni center.
The first production plant produced the intermediate product dimethylterephthalate (DMT).
V prvem obratu se je proizvajal dimetiltereftalat (DMT).
DMT was the raw material for the second production plant, the polymerisation plant. The second plant produced polymer either in molten state to supply the production plant of Montefibre or in the solid state in the form of chips for the external market.
DMT je bila surovina drugega proizvodnega obrata, polimerizacije, v katerem se je proizvajal tekoči polimer za potrebe proizvodnega obrata Montefibre, oziroma v trdnem stanju v obliki zrn (čipov) za zunanji trg.
The polymerisation plant operated with three production lines, (CP1, CP2 and CP3). Of these, CP3 had been created in 2003.
Obrat za polimerizacijo je deloval v treh proizvodnih enotah, CP1, CP2 in CP3; slednja je bila ustanovljena leta 2003.
Italy had granted regional aid of EUR 13,7 million for the investments in CP3.
Italija je dodelila regionalno pomoč v višini 13,7 milijona EUR za naložbe v obrat za polimerizacijo CP3.
The aid had been provided under a regional aid scheme approved by the Commission [3].
Pomoč je bila dodeljena na podlagi sheme regionalnih pomoči, ki jo je odobrila Komisija [3].
The financial difficulties of NGP
Finančne težave podjetja NGP
NGP quickly ran into difficulties after its creation for several reasons.
Podjetje NGP je imelo od svoje ustanovitve naprej težave iz različnih vzrokov.
In 2003 a breakdown of the cooling system halted production.
Leta 2003 je bilo treba zaradi okvare sistema za hlajenje zaustaviti proizvodnjo.
Although the broken equipment was provisionally replaced, the production plant did not return to full operation.
Čeprav je bila pokvarjena naprava zamenjana z začasno, proizvodni obrat ni deloval v polnem obsegu.
The situation was aggravated by strong pressure on prices due to the weakening of the US dollar exchange rate, which made producers outside the euro area more competitive.
Položaj podjetja NGP se je poslabšal zaradi močnih pritiskov na cene v povezavi z znižanjem menjalnega tečaja dolarja, zaradi česar so postali proizvajalci iz držav zunaj euroobmočja bolj konkurenčni.
Moreover, the costs of production of DMT were to a large extent fixed costs, which are independent of the volumes produced.
Poleg tega so bili stroški proizvodnje DMT večinoma fiksni stroški, neodvisni od proizvedenih količin.
The reduced volume of chips and molten polymer sold led to reduced production of DMT, which, however, resulted in only a small decrease in total production costs because of the large share of fixed costs.
Zaradi zmanjšanega obsega prodaje čipov in tekočih polimerov je v obratu DMT prišlo do zmanjšanja obsega proizvodnje. Takšno zmanjšanje proizvodnje pa je povzročilo samo rahlo zmanjšanje skupnih proizvodnih stroškov zaradi velikega deleža fiksnih stroškov.
In turn, unit production costs of DMT therefore increased considerably.
Proizvodni stroški obrata DMT na enoto so se torej bistveno povečali.
NGP recorded losses of EUR 29,68 million in 2003, its last year of full production, and losses of EUR 17,87 million in 2004.
Podjetje NGP je beležilo izgubo v vrednosti 29,68 milijona EUR v letu 2003, ki je bilo zadnje leto polne proizvodnje, in 17,87 milijona EUR v letu 2004.
In 2005 it nevertheless recorded profits of EUR 5,27 million, which were largely due to extraordinary revenues.
Leta 2005 je podjetje beležilo dobiček v vrednosti 5,27 milijona EUR, pretežno zaradi izrednih prihodkov.
In January 2004 the board of the firm took the decision to suspend production and to draw up a project to convert the existing industrial facilities.
Upravni odbor podjetja je januarja 2004 sprejel odločitev o opustitvi proizvodne dejavnosti in izvedbi projekta spremembe obstoječih industrijskih obratov.
The objective was to change the raw material used for the polymerisation plant, replacing own-production DMT with another raw material, purified terephthalic acid (PTA), in order to create a more flexible cost structure.
Cilj je bil spremeniti surovine, ki so se uporabljale za obrat za polimerizacijo, in zamenjati DMT iz lastne proizvodnje z drugo surovino, čisto tereftalno kislino (PTA), s čimer bi dosegli prožnejšo strukturo stroškov.
It was estimated that a further EUR 22 million would be needed for the raw material changeover. Because of insufficient financial means, NGP would not have been able to complete these investments.
Ocenjeno je bilo, da je za prehod na drugo surovino potrebnih še 22 milijonov EUR. Zaradi nezadostnih finančnih sredstev podjetje NGP ne bi bilo zmožno dokončno izvesti teh naložb.
In May 2004 a protocol of understanding (protocollo di intesa) was concluded between several public authorities, Montefibre, NGP and other companies in which all parties agreed to the need to safeguard the investments already carried out for CP3 and to finalise them.
Različni javni organi, predstavniki Montefibre, NGP in drugih podjetij so maja 2004 podpisali sporazum, s katerim so se vse stranke sporazumele o potrebi, da se že opravljene naložbe za enoto CP3 zavarujejo in dopolnijo.
In July 2005 an agreement (accordo di programma) was signed by national and regional authorities, NGP, Montefibre and Edison (another firm located in Acerra) concerning the NGP site as well as other activities at the Acerra site.
Nacionalni in regionalni organi, podjetje NGP, Montefibre in Edison (podjetje, ki se prav tako nahaja v Acerri) so julija 2005 podpisali okvirni dogovor (Accordo di programma) glede lokacije podjetja NGP in drugih dejavnosti na tej lokaciji v Acerri.
The main elements of this agreement concerning NGP were as follows:
Glavni elementi tega sporazuma v zvezi s podjetjem NGP so naslednji:
creation of a new firm, SIMPE SpA, in July 2005, with NGP as the majority shareholder and with Montefibre (19,1 % of the share capital) and a public development agency, Sviluppo Italia (9,8 % of the share capital) as minority shareholders.
Ustanovitev novega podjetja SIMPE S.p.A. julija 2005 z večinsko udeležbo podjetja NGP in manjšinsko udeležbo podjetja Montefibre (19,1 % osnovnega kapitala) ter nacionalno agencijo Sviluppo Italia (9,8 % osnovnega kapitala).
SIMPE would take over the polymerisation activities of NGP (i.e. production assets plus related liabilities) and part of the workforce.
Podjetje SIMPE naj bi prevzelo dejavnost polimerizacije od podjetja NGP (torej stalna sredstva in ustrezno pasivo) ter določeno število zaposlenih.
NGP would remain in activity only as a utilities provider [4];
Podjetje NGP pa naj bi opravljalo samo še dejavnost zagotavljanja komunalnih storitev [4];
closure of the DMT production plant and realisation by the new firm, SIMPE, of the planned investments in line CP3 with a view to replacing the original own-production DMT with a new raw material, purified terephthalic acid (PTA), to be acquired from outside sources [5];
Zaprtje obrata za proizvodnjo DMT in izvedba naložb s strani novega podjetja SIMPE, predvidenih za enoto CP3 z namenom zamenjave prvotnega DMT iz lastne proizvodnje z novo surovino, čisto tereftalno kislino (PTA) zunanjega dobavitelja [5];
granting by Italy of financial support measures totalling EUR 20,87 million to support the investments in the raw material changeover.
Italija dodeli finančno pomoč za uvoz v skupni višini 20,87 milijona EUR za pokrivanje naložb v zvezi s prehodom na novo surovino.
These measures are described below.
Ti ukrepi so opisani v nadaljnjem besedilu.
The first measure consists of a grant of EUR 10,75 million, of which EUR 5 million to be provided by the Region of Campania and the remainder by the Ministry of Industry.
Prvi ukrep je sestavljen iz subvencije v višini 10,75 milijona EUR, od tega naj bi 5 milijonov zagotovila regija Campagna, ostalo pa Ministrstvo za proizvodne dejavnosti.
The measure was granted on 18 May 2006.
Ukrep je bil dodeljen 18. maja 2006.
The second measure consists of a soft loan of EUR 6,523 million provided by the Ministry of Industry at a reduced interest rate (36 % of the reference rate).
Drugi ukrep je sestavljen iz ugodnega posojila 6,523 milijona EUR, ki ga je dodelilo Ministrstvo za proizvodne dejavnosti po znižani obrestni meri v višini 36 % referenčne obrestne mere.
The loan was granted on 18 May 2006.
Posojilo je bilo dodeljeno 18. maja 2006.
The third measure consists of a temporary participation of EUR 3,6 million in the risk capital of SIMPE by Sviluppo Italia (9,8 % of the company capital).
Tretji ukrep je sestavljen iz začasne udeležbe agencije Sviluppo Italia v rizičnem kapitalu podjetja Simpe v vrednosti 3,6 milijona EUR (9,8 % osnovnega kapitala podjetja).
The injection was made on 5 May 2006.
Udeležba je bila izvedena 5. maja 2006.
The two other shareholders in SIMPE, NGP and Montefibre, were required to buy the shares from Sviluppo Italia within a period of three to five years at a price equal to the nominal value plus annual interest on the basis of the official reference rate for medium- to long-term operations plus two percentage points.
Druga dva delničarja podjetja Simpe, torej podjetji NGP in Montefibre, sta se zavezali, da bosta v obdobju od treh do petih let kupila delnice agencije Sviluppo Italia po ceni, ki je enaka nominalni vrednosti z letnimi obrestmi na podlagi uradne referenčne obrestne mere za srednje- do dolgoročne posle, povečane za najmanj 2 odstotni točki.
All three measures were granted to SIMPE.
Vsi trije ukrepi so bili odobreni podjetju Simpe.
New developments
Novi dogodki
In February 2007 the Spanish multinational chemical company, La Seda de Barcelona, acquired the Montefibre shares in SIMPE and invested additional capital of EUR 20,7 million in the firm, thus becoming its major shareholder with 50,1 % of shares.
Špansko multinacionalno kemično podjetje La Seda de Barcelona je februarja 2007 kupilo delnice podjetij Montefibre in SIMPE in je v podjetje vložilo dodatni kapital v višini 20,7 milijona EUR ter tako postalo večinski delničar s 50,1 %.
The other shareholders were NGP with 43,6 % and Sviluppo Italia with 6,3 %.
Druga delničarja podjetja SIMPE sta podjetje NGP s 43,6 % in agencija Sviluppo Italia s 6,3 %.
The acquisition of SIMPE by La Seda de Barcelona also meant changes to the original restructuring plan.
Prevzem podjetja SIMPE s strani podjetja La Seda de Barcelona je pomenil tudi spremembo prvotnega načrta za prestrukturiranje.
Whereas, according to the plan agreed in July 2005 (see above), SIMPE would continue in the same line of business as NGP, i.e. producing mainly polymer for textile applications, SIMPE now planned to concentrate production mostly on polymer for the market in PET (polyethylene terephthalate), a plastic material of which La Seda de Barcelona is one of the EU’s largest producers.
Čeprav naj bi po načrtu, ki je bil dogovorjen julija 2005 (glej zgoraj), podjetje SIMPE moralo nadaljevati z enako dejavnostjo, ki jo je imelo podjetje NGP, torej predvsem proizvodnjo polimerov za tekstilno industrijo, se je z novim projektom proizvodnja usmerila zlasti v sektor polimerov za trg s polietilen tereftalatom (PET), plastično snovjo, katere eden glavnih proizvajalcev v EU je podjetje La Seda de Barcelona.
GROUNDS FOR INITIATING THE FORMAL INVESTIGATION PROCEDURE
RAZLOGI ZA SPROŽITEV URADNEGA POSTOPKA
Italy notified the aid on the basis of the Community guidelines on State aid for rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty (hereafter the Community guidelines) [6].
Italija je priglasila pomoč na podlagi smernic Skupnosti o državni pomoči za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah [6].
The Commission, in its decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure under Article 88(2) of the Treaty, stated that it had doubts as to whether the conditions of the Community guidelines were fulfilled.
V odločitvi, da sproži uradni postopek v smislu člena 88(2) Pogodbe, je Komisija omenila svoje dvome o dejstvu, da so pogoji iz smernic Skupnosti izpolnjeni.
The Commission expressed doubts as to the actual beneficiary of the aid and its eligibility.
Komisija je izrazila dvome o dejanskem upravičencu in o upravičenosti do pomoči.
Italy had notified NGP as the beneficiary of the aid.
Italija je podjetje NGP priglasila kot upravičenca do pomoči.
However, all three measures were granted to the new firm SIMPE, which, as a newly created firm, was not eligible for restructuring aid (point 12 of the Community guidelines).
Vendar so bili vsi trije ukrepi del pomoči, dodeljene podjetju SIMPE, ki je novo ustanovljeno podjetje in kot takšno ni upravičeno do pomoči za prestrukturiranje (točka 12 smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah).
The Commission, therefore, questioned whether NGP and SIMPE, as a group, could qualify for the aid: SIMPE had been created by NGP in the context of the restructuring of the polymerisation assets, for which the aid measures in question were granted.
Komisija je torej izrazila dvome o dejstvu, da bi bili podjetji NGP in SIMPE tudi kot skupina lahko upravičeni do pomoči. Podjetje SIMPE je ustanovilo podjetje NGP v okviru prestrukturiranja obratov za polimerizacijo, za katere so bili odobreni zadevni ukrepi pomoči.
On the other hand, NGP was not a newly created firm within the meaning of the Community guidelines and, what is more, appeared to be a firm in difficulty and therefore eligible for restructuring aid
Po drugi strani podjetje NGP ni bilo novo ustanovljeno podjetje v smislu smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje, bilo pa je podjetje v težavah in torej upravičeno do pomoči za prestrukturiranje.
However, even if NGP and SIMPE could be considered to form a single group eligible for aid, the Commission had doubts concerning the remaining criteria laid down in the Community guidelines.
Tudi v primeru, če bi podjetji NGP in SIMPE obravnavali kot skupino in bi bili do te pomoči upravičeni, Komisija dvomi, da so izpolnjena ostala merila iz smernic za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah.
In particular, Italy had not submitted restructuring plans complying with all the requirements of Section 3.2.2 of the Community guidelines for either SIMPE or NGP.
Italija zlasti ni predložila načrta za prestrukturiranje, ki bi izpolnjeval vsa merila iz poglavja 3.2.2 smernic Skupnosti, ne za podjetje SIMPE ne za podjetje NGP.
As regards SIMPE, the business plan submitted by Italy did not contain a detailed market survey or an analysis of the firm’s specific weaknesses and strengths.
Kar zadeva podjetje SIMPE, poslovni načrt, ki ga je predstavila Italija, ne vsebuje podrobne tržne raziskave, niti analize prednosti in slabosti, značilne za podjetje.
Nevertheless, the Commission noted that SIMPE had in the meantime been sold to another firm, the consequences of which the Commission could not assess at that stage.
Komisija kljub temu ugotavlja, da je bilo podjetje SIMPE medtem preneseno na drugo podjetje in v tej fazi ne more ocenjevati posledic takšnega posla.
Regarding NGP, Italy had not provided any indication of the costs of the restructuring measures to be implemented and their precise financing.
Kar zadeva podjetje NGP, Italija ni predložila nobenih informacij v zvezi s stroški ukrepov za prestrukturiranje in njihovega podrobnega financiranja.
On the basis of the information available, the Commission doubted whether the conditions relating to the restoration of viability were fulfilled.
Komisija na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij dvomi, da so pogoji v zvezi z ponovno vzpostavitvijo sposobnosti preživetja izpolnjeni.
