Unlike the 1997 Fisheries Guidelines, the 2001 Fisheries Guidelines contained, in point 2.2.4, a specific rule in respect of aid for rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty, which provided for the application of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines.
Pravzaprav so, v nasprotju s smernicami za ribištvo iz leta 1997, smernice za ribištvo iz leta 2001 v ustrezni točki 2.2.4 vsebovale posebno določbo o pomočeh za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah, ki je predvidevala uporabo smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999.
As stated in the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure, that State aid scheme therefore certainly constitutes, from 1 July 2001, a new aid scheme which Italy was required to notify to the Commission before putting it into effect.
Posledično, kot je navedeno v odločbi o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave, taka shema državne pomoči za pomoči, dodeljene po 1. juliju 2001, gotovo pomeni novo pomoč, ki jo je pred izvedbo Italija morala priglasiti Komisiji.
The scheme may be considered compatible with the common market only if it may qualify for one of the exceptions provided for in the Treaty.
Taka shema se lahko šteje za združljivo s skupnim trgom samo, če je upravičena do uporabe ene od izjem iz Pogodbe.
Since it is firms in the fisheries and aquaculture sector which benefit from that scheme, it must be examined in the light of the Guidelines for the examination of State aid to fisheries and aquaculture.
Ker so prejemniki zgoraj navedene sheme podjetja iz sektorja ribištva in ribogojstva, je treba to preučiti ob upoštevanju smernic za pregled državnih pomoči za ribištvo in ribogojstvo.
The anaysis set out in the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure remains valid.
Analiza iz odločbe o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave še vedno velja.
The measure is clearly presented as an aid scheme for the restructuring of firms with implementation of restructuring plans by the beneficiary firms.
Ukrep je jasno predstavljen kot shema pomoči za prestrukturiranje podjetij z izvedbo načrtov za prestrukturiranje v podjetjih, ki prejmejo pomoč.
The list of eligible costs referred to in the Decree of 10 February 1998 shows that the operations which may be funded in fact correspond to the operations which serve to restructure the beneficiary firms.
Seznam upravičenih stroškov iz odloka z dne 10. februarja 1998 kaže, da so upravičene dejavnosti dejansko dejavnosti, ki omogočajo prestrukturiranje podjetij, ki prejmejo pomoč.
Those costs reflect investments or financial and operating charges of firms.
Ti izdatki zajemajo naložbe ali finančne stroške in stroške delovanja podjetij.
It is expenditure which may certainly be linked to a reorganisation of the activities of the beneficiary firms or their adaptation to new economic conditions for the purpose of enabling the restoration of economic and financial viability.
Ti izdatki so gotovo povezani s preusmeritvijo dejavnosti podjetij, ki prejmejo pomoč ali z njihovo prilagoditvijo novim gospodarskim razmeram, da se omogoči ponovna vzpostavitev gospodarske in finančne donosnosti.
It is therefore appropriate to analyse that aid scheme in the light of the relevant provisions in the Fisheries Guidelines.
Zato je treba analizirati tako shemo pomoči ob upoštevanju določb iz smernic za ribištvo.
Both the 2001 Fisheries Guidelines (point 2.2.4) and the 2004 Fisheries Guidelines (point 4.1.2) state that State aid aimed at rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty is to be assessed in accordance with the Restructuring Guidelines.
Smernice za ribištvo iz leta 2001 (točka 2.2.4) in smernice za ribištvo iz leta 2004 (točka 4.1.2) določajo, da se pomoči, namenjene reševanju in prestrukturiranju podjetij v težavah, vrednotijo skladno s smernicami za prestrukturiranje.
If aid had still been paid after 1 April 1998, which is possible since that aid scheme was set up without limits on its duration (see recital 2 above), the Guidelines for the examination of State aid to fisheries and aquaculture [10] adopted in 2008 (the 2008 Fisheries Guidelines), which refer in the same manner to the Restructuring Guidelines, are applicable.
V primeru, da bi bile pomoči nakazane še po 1. aprilu 2008, kar je mogoče, saj je bila ta shema pomoči uvedena brez časovnih omejitev (gl. uvodno izjavo 2 zgoraj), bi uporabili smernice za pregled državnih pomoči za ribištvo in ribogojstvo [10], sprejete v letu 2008 (v nadaljnjem besedilu smernice za ribištvo iz leta 2008), ki enako napotijo na smernice za prestrukturiranje.
Accordingly, it is appropriate to assess, first of all, whether the conditions for putting that scheme into effect reflect those laid down in the Restructuring Guidelines.
Zato je zlasti dobro presoditi, ali so pogoji za izvajanje take sheme pomoči skladni s tistimi, določenimi v smernicah za prestrukturiranje.
First, the Restructuring Guidelines provide that it is only firms in difficulty fulfilling the express criteria in points 4 to 8 of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines or in points 9 to 13 of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines which are eligible for restructuring aid.
Prvič, smernice za prestrukturiranje predvidevajo, da so prejemniki pomoči za prestrukturiranje samo podjetja v težavah, ki izpolnjujejo merila iz točk od 4 do 8 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999 oziroma iz točk od 9 do 13 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004.
Those rules set strict criteria for defining what constitutes a firm in difficulty.
Te določbe določajo stroga merila za opredelitev nekega podjetja kot podjetja v težavah.
In accordance with point 5 of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines and point 10 of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines, in order to be regarded as being in difficulty a firm must, in the case of a limited company, have lost more than half of its capital, at least one quarter of that capital over the preceding 12 months or, for all other types of company, fulfil the criteria for being the subject of collective insolvency proceedings.
Pravzaprav mora podjetje, v skladu s točko 5 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999 in točke 10 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004, da bi veljalo za podjetje v težavah, če je družba z omejeno odgovornostjo, izgubiti več kot polovico lastnih sredstev in vsaj četrtino od teh v zadnjih dvanajstih mesecih, pri vseh drugih oblikah gospodarskih družb pa mora izpolnjevati pogoje za začetek stečajnega postopka v primeru insolventnosti.
Point 11 of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines also states that, in addition to those criteria, a firm may still be considered to be in difficulties where the usual signs are present, such as increasing losses, diminishing turnover, rising financial charges and so on (pursuant to point 18, Member States may take that criterion into account also for restructuring aid granted to firms in the fisheries sector under an aid scheme).
Točka 11 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004 kaže še, da podjetje lahko, poleg teh meril, velja za podjetje v težavah, če kaže značilne znake, kot so naraščajoče izgube, zmanjšanje prometa, povečanje finančnih stroškov itd. (države članice lahko na podlagi točke 18 pri pomočeh za prestrukturiranje, dodeljenih podjetjem v ribiškem sektorju v okviru sheme pomoči, upoštevajo tudi to merilo).
The Commission observes that the Decree of 10 February 1998 does not contain any criterion of the same or similar kind.
Komisija ugotavlja, da odlok z dne 10. februarja 1998 ne vsebuje nobenega tovrstnega ali podobnega merila.
Aid granted by Italy may thus benefit firms which do not fulfil the criteria referred to in those Guidelines and which therefore may not be firms in difficulty.
Pomoč, ki jo dodeli Italija, lahko tako prejmejo podjetja, ki ne izpolnjujejo postavljenih pogojev in torej niso nujno podjetja v težavah.
Secondly, given that that aid scheme is directed at small and medium-sized undertakings, in accordance with point 67(a) of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines the criteria set out in points 31 to 34 of those Guidelines are applicable.
Drugič, ker je ta shema pomoči namenjena malim in srednje velikim podjetjem, se v skladu s točko 67(a) smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999 uporabljajo merila, določena v točkah od 31 do 34 navedenih smernic.
The Commission observes that Italy did not set up a procedure to check fulfilment of those conditions.
Komisija meni, da Italija ni uvedla nobenega postopka, ki bi omogočal preverjanje izpolnjevanja teh pogojev.
The information communicated in reply to the initiation of the formal investigation procedure refers only to the general conditions in the Decree of 10 February 1998 for the grant of such aid.
Informacije, posredovane v odgovor na začetek formalnega postopka preiskave, se nanašajo samo na splošne pogoje iz odloka z dne 10. februarja 1998 za dodelitev takih pomoči.
But those conditions do not lay down objective criteria for checking that the individual restructuring plans of the firms concerned are really drawn up in accordance with those principles.
Toda ti pogoji ne določajo objektivnih meril, ki bi omogočala preverjanje, ali so posamezni načrti prestrukturiranja zainteresiranih podjetij resnično zasnovani v skladu s temi načeli.
There is therefore no guarantee that the conditions laid down in points 31 to 34 of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines or in points 34 to 37 of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines have been fulfilled.
Ni torej nobenega zagotovila, da so pogoji, določeni v točkah od 31 do 34 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999 ali v točkah od 34 do 37 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004, izpolnjeni.
Thirdly, according to points 40 and 41 of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines, applicable to small and medium-sized enterprises under point 67(c) of the same, beneficaries must make a significant contribution to the restructuring plan from their own resources in order to limit aid to the minimum.
Tretjič, v skladu s točkama 40 in 41 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999, ki se uporabljajo za mala in srednje velika podjetja, morajo v skladu s točko 67(c) teh smernic prejemniki prispevati lastna sredstva k načrtu za prestrukturiranje, tako da se pomoč omeji na minimum.
The same principle is found in points 43 and 44 of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines, applicable pursuant to point 82(c).
Enako načelo vsebujeta točki 43 in 44 smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004, ki se uporabljata na podlagi točke 82(c).
In accordance with the Decree of 10 February 1998, the aid is granted in the form of a non-repayable grant up to a maximum of 40 % of eligible expenditure or a soft loan for an amount of up to 85 % of that expenditure.
V skladu z odlokom z dne 10. februarja 1998 se pomoč dodeli v obliki nepovratnih sredstev, ki pa ne smejo presegati 40 % upravičenih izdatkov, oziroma v obliki subvencioniranega posojila v višini 85 % teh izdatkov.
There is no distinction depending on the type of eligible cost (see Part 2 ‘Description’ above).
Razlikovanja na podlagi vrste upravičenih izdatkov (gl. zgoraj točko 2 Opis) ni.
The Commission infers therefrom that the contribution may concern any of the costs in question, for example expenditure for the modernisation of plant, the funding of property losses, debt write-offs and so on.
Iz tega Komisija sklepa, da se lahko ta prispevek nanaša na kateri koli zadevni strošek, na primer na stroške posodobitve obratov, kritje premoženjskih izgub, poravnavo dolgov itd.
It is therefore possible that some beneficiaries have made a significant contribution to the implementation of the restructuring plan which concerns them.
Zato je mogoče, da so nekateri prejemniki znatno prispevali k izvršitvi načrta prestrukturiranja njihovega podjetja.
However, the Commission observes that Italy did not lay down any criterion for adjusting the amount of the aid granted on the basis of the contribution of each beneficiary.
Vendar pa Komisija meni, da Italija ni določila nobenega merila, ki bi omogočalo spremembo zneska dodeljene pomoči glede na prispevek vsakega prejemnika.
The only criterion contained in the Decree of 19 February 1998 is a criterion relating to the order in which the aid applications are received.
Edino merilo, ki ga vsebuje odlok z dne 10. februarja 1998, je merilo vrstnega reda prošenj za pomoč.
For those reasons, the Commission considers that Italy did not lay down, in that aid scheme, any procedure for checking that the conditions of contribution of beneficiaries from their own resources and limitation of aid to the minimum have been fulfilled.
Komisija zato meni, da Italija v tej shemi pomoči ni določila nobenega postopka, ki bi omogočal preverjanje izpolnjevanja pogojev o prispevku prejemnikov iz lastnih sredstev in omejitvi pomoči na minumum.
It is therefore possible that some aid beneficiaries have not fulfilled those conditions.
Dejansko je torej mogoče, da nekateri prejemniki pomoči niso izpolnjevali teh pogojev.
Fourthly, point 67(b) of the 1999 Restructuring Guidelines states that the compensatory measures to be taken to avoid undue distortions of competition, set out in points 35 to 39 of those Guidelines, do not apply to small and medium-sized undertakings.
Četrtič, v skladu s točko 67(b) smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 1999 se izravnalni ukrepi, ki jih je treba sprejeti, da bi preprečili neupravičeno izkrivljanje konkurence, opisano v točkah od 35 do 39 navedenih smernic, ne uporabljajo za mala in srednje velika podjetja.
On the other hand, according to point 82(b) of the 2004 Restructuring Guidelines the compensatory measures, described in points 38 to 42 of those Guidelines, must be taken when a medium-sized undertaking is an aid beneficiary.
Nasprotno pa je treba v skladu s točko 82(b) smernic za prestrukturiranje iz leta 2004 to vrsto ukrepov, opisanih v točkah od 38 do 42 navedenih smernic, uporabiti, ko je prejemnik pomoči srednje veliko podjetje.
The Commission observes that Italy did not provide for putting into effect compensatory measures of that type when a medium-sized undertaking benefited from the aid scheme.
Komisija meni, da Italija ni predvidela izvajanja tovrstnih izravnalnih ukrepov, ko je prejemnik sheme pomoči srednje veliko podjetje.
Finally, when cooperatives whose principal activity is fishing at sea benefited from that aid scheme, Italy did not submit a plan to reduce fleet capacity, as required by point 2.2.4 of the 2001 Fisheries Guidelines, point 4.1.2 of the 2004 Fisheries Guidelines or point 4.2 of the 2008 Fisheries Guidelines.
V primeru, da so prejemnice take sheme pomoči zadruge, katerih glavna dejavnost je ribištvo, Italija ni predstavila nobenega načrta za zmanjšanje zmogljivosti flote, kot zahtevajo točka 2.2.5. smernic za ribištvo iz leta 2001 oziroma v točka 4.1.2 smernic za ribištvo iz leta 2004 in točka 4.2 smernic za ribištvo iz leta 2008.
The Commission also points out to Italy that the Communication of 6 March 2006 did not change the criteria and conditions applicable to restructuring aid schemes.
Komisija Italijo še opozarja, da obvestilo z dne 9. marca 2006 ni spremenilo meril in pogojev, ki se uporabljajo pri shemah pomoči za prestrukturiranje.
The purpose was to invite the Member States to use several instruments for the purpose of resolving the difficulties facing the fisheries sector.
Cilj je bil povabiti države članice, da uporabijo nekatere instrumente, da bi odpravile težave, s katerimi se spopada ribiški sektor.
Among the instruments proposed by the Commission is the opportunity for the Member States to set up rescue and restructuring aid schemes.
Med instrumenti, ki jih priporoča Komisija, je možnost držav članic, da uvedejo sheme pomoči za reševanje in prestrukturiranje.
In that Communication, the Commission wished to specify how to apply the Restructuring Guidelines, but did not make any reference to the possibility of derogating from them.
V tem obvestilu je Komisija nameravala pojasniti, kako uporabljati smernice za prestrukturiranje, ni pa nikoli omenila možnosti odstopanja od njih.
The Restructuring Guidelines remain applicable in their entirety.
Smernice še vedno veljajo v celoti.
Finally, the Italian authorities have not put forward other arguments or submitted additional information to suggest that the aid in question could be compatible with the common market on the basis of other provisions of the EC Treaty or the rules, frameworks or guidelines on State aid.
Na koncu, italijanske oblasti niso omenile drugih argumentov ali posredovale dodatnih informacij, ki bi kazale, da bi zadevne pomoči lahko bile združljive s skupnim trgom na podlagi drugih določb Pogodbe ES oziroma pravil, predpisov ali smernic o državnih pomočeh.
The Commission considers that Italy unlawfully put into effect, in breach of Article 88(3) of the EC Treaty, the aid scheme for the restructuring of cooperatives in the fisheries sector and of their consortia.
Komisija ugotavlja, da je Italija nezakonito v nasprotju s členom 88(3) Pogodbe izvajala shemo pomoči za prestrukturiranje ribiških zadrug in njihovih združenj.
On the basis of the analysis set out in Part 5 of this decision, the Commission finds that that aid scheme is incompatible with the common market.
Na podlagi analize iz dela 5 te odločbe Komisija meni, da je taka shema pomoči nezdružljiva s skupnim trgom.
Pursuant to Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) No 659/1999, where State aid granted unlawfully is incompatible with the common market, it must be recovered from the beneficiaries.
Ko je nezakonito dodeljena državna pomoč nezdružljiva s skupnim trgom, je treba v skladu s členom 14(1) Uredbe (ES) št. 659/1999 zahtevati od prejemnikov, da jo vrnejo.
The objective is achieved when the aid at issue, together with any default interest, is repaid by the beneficiaries or, in other words, by the firms who actually received it.
Cilj je dosežen, ko prejemniki oziroma podjetja, ki so dejansko prejela zadevne pomoči, te povrnejo.
It is for the Member States to ensure that national measures are compatible with Community rules in the State aid sector in order to avoid distortions of competition; moreover, they are required to notify any State aid to the Commission, in accordance with Article 88(3) of the EC Treaty, and to refrain from putting that measure into effect until it has been examined.
Dodati je treba, da morajo države članice, da bi preprečile izkrivljanje konkurence, paziti, da so državni ukrepi združljivi s pravili Skupnosti na področju državnih pomoči; poleg tega morajo v skladu s členom 88(3) Pogodbe ES Komisiji priglasiti vsako državno pomoč in ukrepa ne smejo izvajati, dokler se ne preuči.
For that reason, so far as concerns the possibility of beneficiaries relying on the principle of the protection of legitimate expectations in order to avoid recovery of unlawful and incompatible aid, it is evident from the case-law of the Court that ‘undertakings to which an aid has been granted may not, in principle, entertain a legitimate expectation that the aid is lawful unless it has been granted in compliance with the procedure laid down in that article. A diligent businessman should normally be able to determine whether that procedure has been followed.’
Zato v zvezi z možnostjo prejemnikov, da se sklicujejo na načelo zaupanja v pravo, da bi se izognili vrnitvi nezakonitih in nezdružljivih pomoči, sodna praksa Sodišča določa, da „razen v izjemnih okoliščinah podjetja, ki so prejela pomoči, načeloma ne morejo imeti zaupanja v pravo, da je pomoč zakonita, razen če je bila dodeljena v skladu z določbami o predhodnem nadzoru državne pomoči.
In Case 265/85 Van den Bergh en Jurgens v Commission [12], the Court of Justice stated that ‘… any trader in regard to whom an institution has given rise to justified hopes may rely on the principle of the protection of legitimate expectation.
V zadevi 265/85 Van den Bergh en Jurgens BV proti Komisiji [12] je Sodišče Evropskih skupnosti določilo, da „[…] lahko pravico do varstva upravičenih pričakovanj uveljavlja vsak posameznik, ki se znajde v položaju, v katerem je jasno, da je institucija povzročila upravičena pričakovanja.
On the other hand, if a prudent and discriminating trader could have foreseen the adoption of a community measure likely to affect his interests, he cannot plead that principle if the measure is adopted’.
A če lahko razumen in preudaren gospodarski subjekt predvidi sprejetje ukrepa Skupnosti, ki lahko vpliva na njegove interese, se ob njegovem sprejetju na to načelo ne more sklicevati“.
In that manner, an agreement between the Commission and each Member State on a complete list of all existing aid schemes would be impractical and it is reasonable for the Member States to remain responsible for adapting their schemes when necessary.
Tako bi bil sporazum med Komisijo in vsako državo članico o celovitem seznamu vseh obstoječih shem pomoči nepraktičen, zato je odgovornost za prilagoditev shem, ki to potrebujejo, razumno prepustiti državam članicam.
That is particularly true since they participate in drawing up the new guidelines and are well aware, before those guidelines come into force, of the impact which they will have on existing aid schemes.
To še bolj upravičuje dejstvo, da te sodelujejo pri pripravi novih smernic in se, še preden začnejo veljati, dobro zavedajo njihovih posledic za obstoječe sheme pomoči.
Italy submits that it considered that the measure at issue was merely a renewal of measure NN 24/98 approved by the Commission on 11 March 1999 and therefore was existing aid.
Italija trdi, da je menila, da je bil zadevni ukrep samo podaljšanje ukrepa NN 24/98, ki ga je Komisija potrdila dne 11. marca 1999, in je ukrep zato obstoječa pomoč.
On the basis of Article 26(1) of Regulation (EC) No 659/1999, it is conceivable that the fact that the Commission did not publish the Italian Government’s acceptance of the 2001 Fisheries Guidelines might have led some beneficiaries to believe in good faith that the national measure in question was still to be regarded as existing aid.
Na podlagi člena 26(1) Uredbe (ES) št. 659/1999 je mogoče razumeti, da bi dejstvo, da Komisija ni objavila sprejetja smernic za ribištvo iz leta 2001 s strani italijanske vlade, lahko pomenilo, da bi nekateri prejemniki pomoči to razumeli kot, da je zadevni državni ukrep še vedno štet za obstoječo pomoč.
Article 19(1) of Regulation (EC) No 659/1999 provides that, when the Member State accepts the proposed appropriate measures, the Commission ‘shall record that finding’ and inform the Member State thereof.
Člen 19(1) Uredbe (ES) št. 659/1999 določa, da v trenutku, ko država članica sprejme predlagane ustrezne ukrepe, Komisija to zabeleži in o tem obvesti državo članico.
By contrast, that was done for the 2004 Fisheries Guidelines by means of a notice [14].
Za smernice za ribištvo iz leta 2004 pa je bilo obvestilo objavljeno [14].
Accordingly, although there is a principle according to which economic operators may not, in general, rely on the principle of the protection of legitimate expectations as far as concerns unlawful State aid, the Commission notes that, in the present case, until the publication of the notice of acceptance of the appropriate measures, on 11 November 2005, a circumspect and prudent economic operator could properly be entitled to consider that the State aid in question was still an existing scheme and it had not therefore become a new aid scheme.
Zato, čeprav obstaja načelo, po katerem gospodarski subjekti na splošno ne morejo uveljavljati upravičenih pričakovanj v zvezi z nezakonitimi državnimi pomočmi, Komisija meni, da je v tem primeru do objave obvestila o sprejetju teh ustreznih ukrepov dne 11. novembra 2005 razumen in preudaren gospodarski subjekt upravičeno menil, da je zadevna shema državne pomoči še obstoječa shema in torej ni postala nova shema pomoči.
Consequently, in the present case the Commission considers that the recovery of the aid granted up to 11 November 2005 might run counter to the principle of the protection of legitimate expectations and legal certainty.
Zato Komisija v tem primeru meni, da bi bilo lahko vračilo pomoči, dodeljenih do 11. novembra 2005, v nasprotju z načelom zaupanja v pravo ali pravno varnost.
