The Commission will determine the extent of the measures necessary on the basis of the market survey attached to the restructuring plan and, where appropriate on the basis of any other information at the disposal of the Commission including that supplied by interested parties’.
Komisija bo ugotovila obseg potrebnih ukrepov na podlagi tržne raziskave, priložene načrtu za prestrukturiranje, in, kjer je to primerno, tudi na podlagi kakršnih koli drugih informacij, ki so na voljo Komisiji, vključno z informacijami, ki so jih predložile zainteresirane stranke.“
The Austrian authorities have indicated that Austrian Airlines introduced the ‘Go4Profit’ restructuring programme from 2006, by which it reduced its fleet and discontinued a number of long-haul routes.
Avstrijski organi so navedli, da naj bi Austrian Airlines leta 2006 uvedel program za prestrukturiranje „Go4Profit“, s katerim naj bi zmanjšal velikost flote in opustil vrsto letov na dolge proge.
Long-haul capacity was reduced by some […].
Zmogljivost na letih na dolge proge naj bi se zmanjšala za približno […].
The workforce was reduced by […] posts or some […], while the fleet size fell from […] aircraft.
Število zaposlenih naj bi se zmanjšalo za […] delovnih mest ali približno […] in flota za […] letal.
Accordingly, and for the reasons set out in paragraph 293, the Commission will take only capacity reductions implemented since 2008 into consideration as compensatory measures.
Komisija bo zato in iz razlogov, navedenih v točki 293, kot izravnalne ukrepe upoštevala samo zmanjšanja zmogljivosti od leta 2008.
During 2008, scheduled capacity was cut by some […], while charter flights were reduced by […], which corresponds to an overall capacity reduction in terms of ASK of […] compared with the previous year.
Leta 2008 se je zmogljivost rednih povezav zmanjšala za približno […] in zmogljivost čarterskih letov za […], kar v primerjavi z letom prej pomeni skupno zmanjšanje števila ponujenih sedežev oziroma kilometrov […].
In the restructuring plan notified in December 2008, Lufthansa envisaged […].
Lufthansa je v načrtu za prestrukturiranje, priglašenemu decembra 2008, predvidela, […].
Furthermore, further restructuring measures were taken in early 2009, resulting in further capacity reductions of […] on scheduled routes (both by cutting routes and by thinning out flight connections) and […] on charter routes.
Poleg tega so bili v začetku leta 2009 sprejeti nadaljnji ukrepi za prestrukturiranje, ki so povzročili dodatno zmanjšanje zmogljivosti rednih povezav (s črtanjem prog in redčenjem povezav) za […] in čarterskih letov za […].
As a compensatory measure, the Austrian authorities have offered a 15 % reduction in the total available seat kilometres (using the total available seat kilometres in the 2007 financial year as the basis for comparison) by Austrian Airlines (including its subsidiaries) from the beginning of 2008 until 31 December 2010.
Avstrijski organi so kot izravnalni ukrep ponudili, da začne Austrian Airlines (vključno s hčerinskimi družbami) v začetku leta 2008 zmanjševati skupno število ponujenih sedežev oziroma kilometrov in ga do 31. decembra 2010 zmanjša za 15 % (podlaga za primerjavo je skupno število ponujenih sedežev oziroma kilometrov v poslovnem letu 2007).
This includes a considerable reduction in its charter operation, with the available seat kilometres being reduced by […] by the end of […] when compared with […].
To vključuje večje zmanjšanje čarterskih letov, s tem da bi se število ponujenih sedežev oziroma kilometrov do konca leta […] v primerjavi z […] zmanjšalo za […].
Furthermore — in line with the Commission’s requirements — the increase in available seat kilometres after 2010 will be limited to the average growth rate observed for airlines belonging to the Association of European Airlines. This limitation will remain in force, either until the end of 2015 or until such time as Austrian Airlines achieves EBIT break-even, if this occurs before the end of 2015.
Rast števila ponujenih sedežev oziroma kilometrov bo poleg tega – in v skladu z zahtevami Komisije – po letu 2010 omejena na povprečno stopnjo rasti, ugotovljeno za letalske prevoznike, člane Association of European Airlines (Združenje evropskih letalskih prevoznikov); ta omejitev bo veljavna do konca leta 2015 ali dokler Austrian Airlines ne doseže uravnoteženega EBIT, če se bo to zgodilo pred koncem leta 2015.
To allow the Commission to monitor compliance with this cap on growth, annual reports are to be submitted to the Commission no later than the end of March of the year following that covered by the report.
Komisiji je treba vsako leto najpozneje do konca marca leta, ki sledi letu, o katerem se poroča, predložiti poročila, da lahko nadzoruje upoštevanje te zgornje meje za povečanje zmogljivosti.
The Commission notes that, although the aviation market experienced a sharp downturn at the beginning of 2009, the capacity reductions and cap on growth must be assessed over the entire period for which they apply, taking into account the potential for market recovery from 2010, resulting in a further decrease in the airline’s market share.
Komisija opaža, da je gospodarska dejavnost trga letalskega prometa v začetku leta 2009 sicer precej upadla, vendar je treba zmanjšanja zmogljivosti in zgornjo mejo rasti ocenjevati skozi celotno obdobje, v katerem veljajo, pri čemer je treba možnost, da si bo trg opomogel, upoštevati od leta 2010, kar naj bi se izrazilo v dodatnem zmanjšanju tržnega deleža letalskega prevoznika.
Furthermore, the Commission is of the opinion that, given the close link between the State aid linked to the Austrian State’s sale of its stake in the Austrian Airlines Group and the merger of Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines, the compensatory measures envisaged in connection with the State aid must be assessed in the light of the compensatory measures proposed as part of the ongoing merger control procedure [47].
Komisija poleg tega meni, da je treba zaradi tesne povezave med državno pomočjo, povezano s prodajo udeležbe Avstrije v poslovni skupini Austrian Airlines, ter združitvijo Lufthanse in Austrian Airlines izravnalne ukrepe, obravnavane v povezavi z državno pomočjo, ocenjevati ob upoštevanju izravnalnih ukrepov, predlaganih v okviru tekočega postopka nadzora združevanja [47].
Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines have put forward certain compensatory measures in the context of the merger decision being taken in parallel, such as a further release of slots at various capacity-constrained airports to allow one or more new market players to operate a new or additional competing connection.
Lufthansa in Austrian Airlines sta v okviru vzporedne odločbe o nadzoru združevanja ponudila nekatere izravnalne ukrepe, kot na primer nadaljnje dodeljevanje slotov na različnih letališčih, katerih zmogljivosti so že izkoriščene, da bi enemu ali več novim udeležencem trga omogočila upravljanje nove ali dodatne konkurenčne letalske povezave.
Accordingly, Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines and their respective subsidiaries undertake to make time slots [48] available under a special procedure at Vienna, Stuttgart, Cologne, Munich, Frankfurt and Brussels airports for routes for which the Commission has identified competition concerns [49] (hereinafter the identified routes).
Skladno s tem se Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines in njune hčerinske družbe zavezujejo, da bodo v skladu s posebnim postopkom dale na razpolago slote [48] na letališčih Dunaj, Stuttgart, Köln, München, Frankfurt in Bruselj na progah, glede katerih ima Komisija pomisleke v zvezi s konkurenco [49] (v nadaljnjem besedilu: ugotovljene povezave med mesti).
The number of slots to be made available should enable a new airline [50] to operate the identified routes at the following frequencies:
Število slotov, ki jih je treba dati na razpolago, naj bi enemu novemu letalskemu prevozniku [50] omogočilo, da na ugotovljenih povezavah med mesti leti z naslednjo pogostostjo:
Vienna-Stuttgart: up to three (3) connections a day,
Dunaj–Stuttgart: do tri (3) povezave na dan,
Vienna-Cologne/Bonn: up to three (3) connections a day, but not more than 18 connections a week,
Dunaj–Köln/Bonn: do tri (3) povezave na dan, vendar ne več kot 18 povezav na teden,
Vienna-Munich: up to four (4) connections a day,
Dunaj–München: do štiri (4) povezave na dan,
Vienna-Frankfurt: up to five (5) connections a day,
Dunaj–Frankfurt: do pet (5) povezav na dan,
Vienna-Brussels: up to four (4) connections a day, but not more than 24 connections a week.
Dunaj–Bruselj: do štiri (4) povezave na dan, vendar ne več kot 24 povezav na teden.
These compensatory measures will allow the probable, timely entry or expansion of competitors on the routes concerned and will therefore restrict the market position of the merged company.
Ti izravnalni ukrepi bodo omogočili pravočasen in verjeten vstop ali razširitev konkurenčnih podjetij na zadevnih progah in zato prizadeli položaj združenega podjetja na trgu.
Given the above, it is the Commission’s view that, in the particular circumstances of the present case, the compensatory measures proposed as part of the merger control decision, namely the proposed capacity reduction and the cap on growth after 2010, together constitute sufficient compensatory measures to counteract the market distortions accompanying the restructuring.
Komisija glede na zgornje navedbe meni, da so izravnalni ukrepi, predlagani v odločbi o nadzoru združevanja, in sicer predlagano zmanjšanje zmogljivosti v povezavi z omejitvijo rasti po letu 2010, v posebnih okoliščinah obravnavanega primera, če ju obravnavamo skupaj, zadostna izravnalna ukrepa za preprečevanje izkrivljanj trga, povezanih z restrukturiranjem.
Additional conditions and commitments
Dodatni pogoji in obljube
In accordance with point 46 of the 2004 Guidelines and point 40 (second sentence) of the 1994 Aviation Guidelines, the Commission may impose conditions and obligations in addition to the compensatory measures in order to ensure that the aid does not distort competition to an extent contrary to the common interest.
Komisija lahko v skladu s točko 46 Smernic iz leta 2004 in točko 40 (drugi stavek) Smernic za letalski sektor iz leta 1994 poleg izravnalnih ukrepov določi kakršne koli pogoje in obveznosti, da se prepreči, da bi pomoč izkrivila konkurenco v tolikšni meri, ki bi bila v nasprotju s skupnim interesom.
As previously noted, the Commission has observed that the Republic of Austria retains a number of bilateral air transport agreements with certain third countries which do not recognise the Community designation.
Komisija, kot je bilo že navedeno, opaža, da Republika Avstrija vzdržuje številne dvostranske sporazume o letalskih prevozih z nekaterimi tretjimi državami, v katerih poimenovanje Skupnosti ni priznano.
The vast majority of bilateral air transport agreements with third countries already contain the Community designation clause, either through bilateral negotiations or by means of a horizontal agreement.
Prevelika večina dvostranskih sporazumov o letalskih prevozih s tretjimi državami že vsebuje določbo o poimenovanju Skupnosti, in to na podlagi dvostranskih pogajanj ali horizontalnega sporazuma.
In this regard, the Austrian authorities, aware of their obligations under Community law, have undertaken to terminate the agreements or renegotiate them in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 847/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the negotiation and implementation of air service agreements between Member States and third countries [51].
Avstrijski organi so v zvezi s tem zaradi obveznosti, ki jih imajo na podlagi prava Skupnosti, obljubili, da bodo odpovedali sporazume ali se o njih pogajali na novo v skladu z določbami Uredbe (ES) št. 847/2004 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 29. aprila 2004 o pogajanjih in izvajanju sporazumov o letalskih prevozih med državami članicami in tretjimi državami [51].
During the course of the investigative procedure, the Commission was made aware of the fact that Austrian Airlines owns 51 % of the shares in Schedule Coordination Austria GmbH (SCA).
Komisija je bila med preiskavo opozorjena na to, da ima Austrian Airlines v lasti 51-odstotni delež Schedule Coordination Austria GmbH (SCA).
In the opinion of the Commission, this relationship could be problematic, as Regulation (EC) No 793/2004 [52] (the ‘EU Slot Regulation’) provides as follows (Article 4): ‘The Member State responsible for a schedules facilitated or coordinated airport shall ensure: (a) that at a schedules facilitated airport, the schedules facilitator acts under this Regulation in an independent, neutral, non-discriminatory and transparent manner; (b) the independence of the coordinator at a coordinated airport by separating the coordinator functionally from any single interested party.
Komisija meni, da bi ta odnos lahko povzročil težave, saj je v Uredbi (ES) 793/2004 [52] („Uredba EU o slotih“) določeno (člen 4): „Država članica, odgovorna za letališče z usklajevanim redom letenja ali koordinirano letališče, zagotovi: (a) da na letališču z usklajevanim redom letenja usklajevalec reda letenja deluje v skladu s to uredbo neodvisno, nevtralno, nediskriminatorno in transparentno; (b) neodvisnost koordinatorja na koordiniranem letališču tako, da se koordinator funkcionalno loči od katere koli posamezne zainteresirane stranke.
The system of financing the coordinator’s activities shall be such as to guarantee the coordinator’s independent status; (c) that the coordinator acts according to this Regulation in a neutral, non-discriminatory and transparent way’.
Sistem financiranja koordinatorjevih dejavnosti mora biti tak, da zagotavlja neodvisni status koordinatorja; (c) da koordinator deluje v skladu s to uredbo nevtralno, nediskriminatorno in transparentno.“
The Commission is of the opinion that functional separation means, among other things, that the coordinator should act autonomously from, not be instructed by and not have a duty to report back to the airport managing body, a service provider or any air carrier operating from the airport concerned.
Komisija meni, da funkcionalna delitev med drugim pomeni, da koordinator deluje neodvisno od organa za upravljanje letališča, ponudnika storitev ali katerega koli letalskega prevoznika, ki uporabljajo zadevno letališče, da od navedenih ne prejema navodil niti ni zavezan, da jim poroča.
The Commission further considers that the system of financing the coordinator’s activities should be set up in such a way that the coordinator is financially autonomous from any single party directly affected by or having an interest in its activities.
Komisija poleg tega meni, da je treba sistem financiranja koordinatorjevih dejavnosti oblikovati tako, da je koordinator finančno neodvisen od katere koli posamezne stranke, ki jo njegove dejavnosti neposredno zadevajo ali ima interese v zvezi z njegovimi dejavnostmi.
The coordinator should therefore keep separate accounts and budgets and not rely only on the airport managing body, a service provider or a single air carrier to finance its activities.
Koordinator mora zato imeti ločena finančna poročila in proračune ter pri financiranju svojih dejavnosti ne sme biti odvisen le od organa za upravljanje letališča, ponudnika storitev ali posameznega letalskega prevoznika.
In this regard, the Commission notes that the Austrian authorities have agreed that Austrian Airlines will initiate a process to reduce its shareholding in SCA to 25 % and that Flughafen Wien AG, which currently holds 40 % of the shares in SCA, will not have a majority stake in SCA after this restructuring process.
Komisija v zvezi s tem ugotavlja, da so avstrijski organi obljubili, da bo Austrian Airlines uvedel postopek za zmanjšanje svoje udeležbe v SCA na 25 % in da Flughafen Wien AG, ki ima trenutno v lasti 40-odstotni delež SCA, po tem postopku restrukturiranja ne bo večinski lastnik SCA.
Austrian Airlines’ reduced shareholding in SCA will not qualify as a substantial blocking minority under Austrian corporate law.
Zmanjšana udeležba Austrian Airlines v SCA v skladu z avstrijskim pravom družb ne bo pomenila bistvene manjšine, ki lahko prepreči sprejetje nekaterih sklepov.
One time, last time
Načelo o enkratni pomoči
In opening the proceedings, the Commission noted that Austrian Airlines had received rescue aid authorised by the Commission.
Komisija je ob sprožitvi postopka ugotovila, da je Austrian Airlines prejel pomoč za reševanje, ki jo je odobrila Komisija.
It also noted that neither Austrian Airlines nor any other company within the Group had received restructuring aid in the past.
Ugotovila je še, da niti Austrian Airlines niti nobeno drugo podjetje v tej poslovni skupini v preteklosti ni prejel pomoči za prestrukturiranje.
The Commission recalls that, pursuant to the rescue aid decision of 19 January 2009, the rescue aid (granted in the form of a 100 % guarantee for a loan of EUR 200 million) will be brought to an end when the Commission reaches a definitive position (by adopting this Decision) on the sales process/restructuring plan notified by the Austrian authorities [53].
Komisija spominja, da v skladu z odločbo o pomoči za reševanje z dne 19. januarja 2009 pomoč za reševanje (ki je bila odobrena v obliki 100-odstotnega poroštva za posojilo v višini 200 milijonov EUR) preneha, ko Komisija sprejme dokončno mnenje (s sprejetjem obravnavane odločbe) o prodajnem postopku/načrtu za prestrukturiranje, ki so ga priglasili avstrijski organi. [53]
Furthermore, the Republic of Austria has undertaken not to grant Austrian Airlines or any part of the Austrian Airlines Group any additional rescue or restructuring aid within ten years of the date on which the rescue aid was granted or the end of the restructuring period,
Republika Avstrija je poleg tega obljubila, da Austrian Airlines ali podjetju, ki je član poslovne skupine Austrian Airlines, deset let po odobritvi pomoči za reševanje ali koncu obdobja prestrukturiranja ne bo odobrila nobenih nadaljnjih pomoči za reševanje ali prestrukturiranje –
Subject to the conditions set out in Article 2, the restructuring aid granted by Austria in favour of Austrian Airlines is deemed compatible with the common market by virtue of Article 87(3)(c) of the EC Treaty, provided that the restructuring plan notified to the Commission is implemented in full.
Pomoč za prestrukturiranje, ki jo je Avstrija odobrila Austrian Airlines, je ob upoštevanju pogojev in obveznosti, navedenih v členu 2, v skladu s členom 87(3)(c) Pogodbe ES združljiva s skupnim trgom, če bo načrt za prestrukturiranje, priglašen Komisiji, izveden v celoti.
This cap shall remain in force until the end of 2015 or until Austrian Airlines reaches EBIT break-even, whichever comes first.
Ta zgornja meja velja do konca leta 2015 ali dokler Austrian Airlines ne doseže uravnoteženega EBIT (prag donosnosti), če se to zgodi prej.
Austria shall take the necessary measures to ensure that Austrian Airlines reduces its shareholding in Schedule Coordination Austria GmbH to 25 % by 30 September 2009 and that neither Flughafen Wien AG nor any other party controlled by Austrian Airlines or Flughafen Wien AG has a majority in Schedule Coordination Austria after the restructuring process.
Avstrija sprejme potrebne ukrepe, da bo Austrian Airlines svojo udeležbo v Schedule Coordination Austria GmbH do 30. septembra 2009 zmanjšal na 25 % in da niti Flughafen Wien AG niti nobena druga stranka, ki jo obvladujeta Austrian Airlines ali Flughafen Wien AG, ne bo večinski lastnik Schedule Coordination Austria po tem postopku restrukturiranja.
Austria shall take the necessary measures to ensure compliance with the conditions set out in the merger decision in Case COMP/M.5440 — Lufthansa/Austrian Airlines.
Avstrija sprejme potrebne ukrepe, da bodo upoštevani pogoji iz odločbe o združevanju v zadevi COMP/M.5440 – Lufthansa/Austrian Airlines.
Austria shall terminate bilateral aviation agreements which do not contain the Community designation clause or renegotiate them in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 847/2004.
Avstrija odpove dvostranske sporazume o letalskih prevozih, ki ne vsebujejo določbe o poimenovanju Skupnosti, ali se o njih na novo pogaja v skladu z določbami Uredbe (ES) št. 847/2004.
Austria shall inform the Commission of measures taken to ensure the conformity of such agreements with Community law regarding the recognition of the Community designation.
Avstrija obvesti Komisijo o ukrepih, ki jih je sprejela za zagotovitev skladnosti takih sporazumov s pravom Skupnosti glede priznavanja poimenovanja Skupnosti.
Austria shall submit a report to the Commission by 31 December 2009 on the progress and management of the restructuring plan and on the measures taken to reduce Austrian Airlines’ shareholding in Schedule Coordination Austrian GmbH.
Avstrija Komisiji do 31. decembra 2009 predloži poročilo o napredku in upravljanju načrta za prestrukturiranje ter o sprejetih ukrepih, s katerimi se je zmanjšala udeležba Austrian Airlines v Schedule Coordination Austria GmbH.
By 31 April 2010, Austria shall also indicate the steps taken to implement Article 2(4).
Avstrija do 31. aprila 2010 sporoči, kateri ukrepi so bili sprejeti za izvajanje člena 2(4).
Every year until 2015, Austria shall submit annual reports to the Commission on the implementation of the restructuring plan and the capacity growth rates.
Avstrija Komisiji vsako leto do leta 2015 predloži letna poročila o izvajanju načrta za prestrukturiranje in o stopnjah povečanja zmogljivosti.
