As shown in table 3 above, the net results from the public service activities of NorthLink 1 were positive in some years (2003/2004 and 2005/2006) and negative in other years (2002/2003 and 2004/2005).
Kot je prikazano v preglednici 3 zgoraj, so bili neto rezultati dejavnosti javne službe podjetja NorthLink 1 v nekaterih letih pozitivni (2003/2004 in 2005/2006), v drugih pa negativni (2002/2003 in 2004/2005).
The overall result from the public service activities of NorthLink 1 during the period in which it operated in the northern islands routes (2002-2006) was positive in the amount of GBP 0,9 million.
Skupni rezultat dejavnosti javne službe podjetja NorthLink 1 v obdobju, ko je obratovalo na progah severnih otokov (2002–2006), je bil pozitiven v znesku 0,9 milijona GBP.
This amount corresponds to an annual average excess public funding of GBP 0,2 million.
Ta znesek ustreza letnemu povprečju presežnih javnih sredstev v višini 0,2 milijona GBP.
It must first be noted that the data provided by the UK authorities result from an analytical accounting exercise on the basis of the statutory accounts.
Najprej je treba navesti, da podatki, ki so jih posredovali organi Združenega kraljestva, izhajajo iz analitično knjigovodskega izračuna na podlagi zakonsko predpisanih izkazov.
These results have been validated by an independent external auditor with regard to the methodology used, the accounting details and the statement content.
Te rezultate je glede na uporabljeno metodologijo, računovodske podatke in vsebino izjave potrdil neodvisni zunanji revizor.
No significant differences were found between the amounts reported and the underlying books and records of NorthLink 1.
Med poročanimi zneski ter osnovnimi knjigami in evidencami podjetja NorthLink 1 niso bile ugotovljene bistvene razlike.
This data has been adequately established and is credible [65].
Ti podatki so bili ustrezno ugotovljeni in so verodostojni [65].
The annual average excess public funding of GBP 0,2 million is very limited when compared with the average annual public compensation granted to NorthLink 1 – approximately GBP 23,2 million [66], representing only around 0,9 % of this amount.
Povprečna letna presežna javna sredstva v znesku 0,2 milijona GBP so zelo omejena v primerjavi s povprečnim letnim javnim nadomestilom, dodeljenim podjetju NorthLink 1 – približno 23,2 milijona GBP [66], kar predstavlja samo okoli 0,9 % tega zneska.
The Commission accepts the principle that the compensation paid to undertakings entrusted with a SGEI ‘may not exceed what is necessary to cover the costs incurred in discharging the public service obligations, taking into account the relevant receipts and reasonable profit for discharging those obligations’ [67].
Komisija se strinja z načelom, da znesek nadomestila, plačanega podjetjem, pooblaščenim za SSGO, „ne sme preseči zneska, potrebnega za pokrivanje stroškov, ki nastanejo zaradi izpolnjevanja obveznosti javne službe, ob upoštevanju ustreznih prejemkov in zmernega dobička za poravnavo teh obveznosti“ [67].
Reasonable profit is defined as ‘… a rate of return on own capital that takes account of the risk, or absence of risk, incurred by the undertaking by virtue of the intervention by the Member State …’.
Zmerni dobiček je opredeljen kot „stopnja donosa lastnega kapitala, ki upošteva tveganje ali odsotnost tveganja, ki ga je podjetje imelo zaradi intervencije s strani države članice […])“.
In the present case, the average annual profit margin of around 0,6 % of public service revenues [68] is very limited and can be accepted as reasonable in view of the risks incurred by NorthLink 1 in discharging its public service obligations.
V obstoječem primeru je povprečna letna profitna marža v višini 0,6 % prihodkov javne službe [68] zelo omejena in se lahko šteje za zmerno glede na tveganja, ki jih je imelo podjetje NorthLink 1 pri izpolnjevanju svojih obveznosti javne službe.
It must in particular be noted that these very limited profits of NorthLink 1 followed a competitive bidding procedure for the public service contract and thus had to be kept to the minimum according to market conditions.
Upoštevati je treba predvsem, da so ti zelo omejeni dobički podjetja NorthLink 1 bili ustvarjeni po konkurenčnem postopku za oddajo naročila za pogodbo o izvajanju javne službe in so morali biti zato minimalni v skladu s tržnimi pogoji.
Therefore, NorthLink 1 has not been unduly over-compensated for the performance of its public service tasks during the period in which it operated the northern islands routes.
Zato podjetje NorthLink 1 ni prejelo neupravičeno prekomernega nadomestila za izvajanje svojih nalog javne službe v obdobju, ko je obratovalo na progah severnih otokov.
In Streamline Shipping’s original complaint of July 2004, it was alleged that at least GBP 2 million was paid to NorthLink 1 outside the scope of the reimbursable expenses regarding its public service obligations directly for chartering a freight vessel.
V prvotni pritožbi podjetja Streamline Shipping iz julija 2004 je bila podana domneva, da je podjetje NorthLink 1 prejelo najmanj 2 milijona GBP zunaj obsega povračljivih stroškov v zvezi s svojimi obveznostmi javne službe neposredno za zakup tovornega plovila.
However, as shown above this did not lead to an overcompensation of NorthLink 1’s public service obligations.
Vendar kot je prikazano zgoraj, to ni privedlo do prekomernega nadomestila za obveznosti javne službe podjetja NorthLink 1.
As regards possible anti-competitive behaviour, the price data submitted by Streamline Shipping [69] does not indicate significant price differences for freight transport between NorthLink 1 and Streamline Shipping.
Kar zadeva možno protikonkurenčno vedenje, podatki o cenah, ki jih je posredovalo podjetje Streamline Shipping [69], ne kažejo na bistvene razlike v cenah za prevoz blaga med podjetjema NorthLink 1 in Streamline Shipping.
In the Shetland route NorthLink 1’s prices are higher than Streamline Shipping’s prices in all years.
Cene podjetja NorthLink 1 za shetlandsko progo so višje od cen podjetja Streamline Shipping v vseh letih.
In the Orkney route NorthLink 1’s prices are lower than Streamline Shipping’s prices in all years (between 5 % and 13 %), but this fact alone does not prove an anti-competitive behaviour.
Cene podjetja NorthLink 1 za orkneysko progo so nižje od cen podjetja Streamline Shipping v vseh letih (med 5 % in 13 %), vendar to samo po sebi ne dokazuje protikonkurenčnega vedenja.
Moreover, the comparison is possibly misled since ro-ro and lo-lo freight rates are not directly comparable as mentioned by the UK authorities.
Poleg tega je lahko primerjava zavajajoča, ker cene RO-RO in LO-LO prevozov niso neposredno primerljive, kar so omenili organi Združenega kraljestva.
Moreover, the Commission notes that the commercial activities carried out by NorthLink 1 were profitable on a stand-alone basis in every year of NorthLink 1’s operation.
Komisija tudi navaja, da so bile komercialne dejavnosti, ki jih je izvajalo podjetje NorthLink 1, donosne same po sebi v vseh letih, ko je to podjetje poslovalo.
This means that the prices charged by NorthLink 1 on its commercial activities were market driven and compatible with the profit-maximising behaviour of a market investor.
To pomeni, da so bile cene, ki jih je zaračunavalo podjetje NorthLink 1 za svoje komercialne dejavnosti, tržno pogojene in združljive z vedenjem tržnega vlagatelja, da se doseže največji dobiček.
Furthermore, in its report of December 2005, which analyses the performance of NorthLink 1, Audit Scotland does not mention any possible anti-competitive behaviour (e.g. price undercutting) as a reason for NorthLink 1’s financial difficulties.
Poleg tega Revizijski urad Škotske v svojem poročilu iz decembra 2005, v katerem analizira poslovanje podjetja NorthLink 1, ne omenja nobenega možnega protikonkurenčnega vedenja (npr. nelojalnega nižanja cen) kot razloga za finančne težave podjetja NorthLink 1.
Rather, these difficulties are attributed essentially to increased and unexpected competition from other undertakings.
Te težave se pravzaprav pripisujejo večji in nepričakovani konkurenci zaradi drugih podjetij.
In conclusion, NorthLink 1 was not unduly over-compensated for the performance of its public service obligations and there is no evidence that it engaged in any form of anti-competitive behaviour during the period in which it operated in the northern islands routes.
Podjetje NorthLink 1 torej ni prejelo neupravičeno prekomernega nadomestila za izpolnjevanje svojih obveznosti javne službe in ni dokazov, da se je kakor koli protikonkurenčno vedlo v obdobju, ko je obratovalo na progah severnih otokov.
It is concluded that the State aid granted to NorthLink 1 was proportional in view of its public service obligations.
Zato se sklepa, da je bila državna pomoč, odobrena podjetju NorthLink 1, sorazmerna z njegovimi obveznostmi javne službe.
As regards the NorthLink 2 public service contract, the Commission is required to check, on the one hand, whether there has been any overcompensation of the public service obligations so far.
Kar zadeva pogodbo o izvajanju javne službe s podjetjem NorthLink 2, mora Komisija po eni strani preveriti, ali je bilo do zdaj kdaj izplačano prekomerno nadomestilo za obveznosti javne službe.
It will also check if there has been any possible anti-competitive behaviour that would have raised the cost of fulfilling the public service obligations to an extent that would not be proportional to the aim pursued by the public service contract.
Preverila bo tudi, ali je obstajalo kakšno protikonkurenčno vedenje, zaradi katerega bi se stroški izpolnjevanja obveznosti javne službe povečali v taki meri, da ne bi bili sorazmerni s ciljem pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe.
On the other hand, the Commission must check whether the current provisions of the public service contract with NorthLink 2 contain sufficient safeguards to ensure the proportionality of the aid.
Po drugi strani mora Komisija preveriti, ali obstoječe določbe pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe s podjetjem NorthLink 2 vsebujejo dovolj zaščitnih ukrepov, da se zagotovi sorazmernost pomoči.
As shown in table 5, the net results from the public service activities of NorthLink 2 were positive in the two first years of operation (2006/2007 and 2007/2008).
Kot je prikazano v preglednici 5, so bili neto rezultati dejavnosti javne službe podjetja NorthLink 2 v prvih dveh letih poslovanja (2006/2007 in 2007/2008) pozitivni.
The overall net result of the operations of NorthLink 2 so far is positive in the amount of GBP 2,4 million.
Skupni neto rezultat poslovanja podjetja NorthLink 2 je zaenkrat pozitiven v znesku 2,4 milijona GBP.
This amount corresponds to an annual average excess public funding of GBP 1,2 million.
Ta znesek ustreza letnemu povprečju presežnih javnih sredstev v višini 1,2 milijona GBP.
As mentioned above in the case of NorthLink 1, it must first be noted that the data provided by the UK authorities result from an analytical accounting exercise on the basis of the statutory accounts.
Kot je omenjeno zgoraj v primeru NorthLink 1, je treba najprej navesti, da podatki, ki so jih posredovali organi Združenega kraljestva, izhajajo iz analitično knjigovodskega izračuna na podlagi zakonsko predpisanih izkazov.
No significant differences were found between the amounts reported and the underlying books and records of NorthLink 2.
Med poročanimi zneski ter osnovnimi knjigami in evidencami podjetja NorthLink 2 niso bile ugotovljene bistvene razlike.
The Commission considers that this data has been adequately established and is credible [70].
Komisija meni, da so bili ti podatki ustrezno ugotovljeni in so verodostojni [70].
The annual average excess public funding of GBP 1,2 million is limited when compared with the average annual public compensation granted to NorthLink 2 – GBP 26,6 million [71], representing only around 4,5 % of this amount.
Povprečna letna presežna javna sredstva v znesku 1,2 milijona GBP so zelo omejena v primerjavi s povprečnim letnim javnim nadomestilom, dodeljenim podjetju NorthLink 2 – približno 26,6 milijona GBP [71], kar predstavlja samo okoli 4,5 % tega zneska.
As mentioned above, the Commission has accepted the principle of a reasonable profit for discharging public service obligations.
Kot je navedeno zgoraj, je Komisija sprejela načelo zmernega dobička za poravnavo obveznosti javne službe.
In the present case, the average annual profit margin of around 2,4 % of public service revenues [72] is limited and can be accepted as reasonable in view of the risks incurred by NorthLink 2 in discharging its public service obligations.
V obstoječem primeru je povprečna letna profitna marža v višini 2,4 % prihodkov javne službe [72] omejena in se lahko šteje za zmerno glede na tveganja, ki jih je imelo podjetje NorthLink 2 pri izpolnjevanju svojih obveznosti javne službe.
It must in particular be noted that these limited profits of NorthLink 2 followed a competitive bidding procedure for the public service contract and thus had to be kept to the minimum according to market conditions.
Upoštevati je treba predvsem, da so ti omejeni dobički podjetja NorthLink 2 bili ustvarjeni po konkurenčnem postopku za oddajo naročila za pogodbo o izvajanju javne službe in so morali biti zato minimalni v skladu s tržnimi pogoji.
Therefore, the Commission considers that NorthLink 2 has not been unduly over-compensated for the performance of its public service tasks during the period in which it has been operating the northern islands routes so far.
Zato Komisija meni, da podjetje NorthLink 2 zaenkrat ni prejelo neupravičeno prekomernega nadomestila za izvajanje svojih nalog javne službe v obdobju, ko je obratovalo na progah severnih otokov.
As regards possible anti-competitive behaviour by NorthLink 2, Streamline Shipping argued that the freight rate cuts of 25 % to Shetland and 19 % to Orkney announced at the beginning of the third public service contract in July 2006 were unduly penalising Streamline Shipping and were only possible thanks to the increased subsidy for NorthLink 2 when compared to NorthLink 1.
V zvezi z možnim protikonkurenčnim vedenjem podjetja NorthLink 2 je podjetje Streamline Shipping trdilo, da je zmanjšanje cen za 25 % za prevoz do Shetlanda in za 19 % za prevoz do Orkneyja, ki je bilo objavljeno ob začetku veljavnosti tretje pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe julija 2006, neupravičeno oškodovalo podjetje Streamline Shipping in je mogoče le zaradi višje subvencije podjetja NorthLink 2 v primerjavi s podjetjem NorthLink 1.
As mentioned above, NorthLink 2 does not carry out activities outside the scope of the public service contract.
Kot je omenjeno zgoraj, podjetje NorthLink 2 ne izvaja dejavnosti zunaj obsega pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe.
In particular, unlike the public service contract with NorthLink 1, the contract between the Scottish authorities and NorthLink 2 covered freight transport as a public service activity.
Predvsem je, nasprotno od pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe s podjetjem NorthLink 1, pogodba, sklenjena med škotskimi organi in podjetjem NorthLink 2, zajemala prevoz blaga kot dejavnost javne službe.
This reduction in the freight rates was imposed by the Scottish authorities as part of the terms of the tender.
Nižje cene prevozov so zahtevali škotski organi v okviru pogojev razpisa.
Thus, this information was public and bidders had to take it into account when formulating their bids.
To pomeni, da je bila ta informacij javna in so jo ponudniki morali upoštevati pri sestavi svojih ponudb.
NorthLink 2 has so far not been over-compensated for its public service obligations.
Podjetje NorthLink 2 zaenkrat ni prejelo prekomernega nadomestila za svoje obveznosti javne službe.
Moreover, as shown in table 5 above, freight transport has been profitable on a stand-alone basis in the 2 years of NorthLink 2’s operation.
Poleg tega je bil prevoz blaga donosen sam po sebi dve leti poslovanja podjetja NorthLink 2, kot je prikazano v preglednici 5 zgoraj.
This means that the prices charged by NorthLink 2 on its commercial activities have been market driven and compatible with the profit-maximising behaviour of a market investor.
To pomeni, da so bile cene, ki jih podjetje NorthLink 2 zaračunava za svoje poslovne dejavnosti, tržno pogojene in združljive z vedenjem tržnega vlagatelja, da se doseže največji dobiček.
Additionally, the Commission recognises that ro-ro and lo-lo freight rates may not be directly comparable for the reasons set out in recital 100 above.
Komisija tudi ugotavlja, da cene RO-RO in LO-LO prevozov niso nujno neposredno primerljive zaradi razlogov, navedenih v uvodni izjavi 100 zgoraj.
Moreover, unlike NorthLink 2, Pentland Ferries does not publish its freight tariffs and rather invites potential customers to contact its booking offices to obtain a quote and make a booking.
Poleg tega v nasprotju s podjetjem NorthLink 2 podjetje Pentland Ferries ne objavlja svojih prevoznih tarif, temveč potencialne stranke poziva, da se za ceno in rezervacijo obrnejo na njegovo službo za rezervacije.
Therefore, it would be difficult for NorthLink 2 to deliberately and consistently undercut Pentland Ferries’ tariffs.
To pomeni, da bi podjetje NorthLink 2 težko namenoma in dosledno nelojalno nižalo tarife podjetja Pentland Ferries.
Also related to possible anti-competitive behaviour by NorthLink 2, Pentland Ferries argued that NorthLink 2 has been practicing a discount scheme for Orkney residents called ‘friends and family’ that is having a detrimental effect on the competing service provided by Pentland Ferries [73].
V zvezi z možnim protikonkurenčnim vedenjem podjetja NorthLink 2 je podjetje Pentland Ferries trdilo tudi, da podjetje NorthLink 2 izvaja shemo popustov za prebivalce Orkneyja, imenovano „prijatelji in družinski člani“, ki ima škodljiv učinek na konkurenčno službo, ki jo izvaja podjetje Pentland Ferries [73].
As shown above in table 7, all the basic tariffs charged by NorthLink 2 for passengers and vehicles are higher than those charged by Pentland Ferries.
Kot je prikazano v preglednici 7 zgoraj, so vse osnovne tarife, ki jih zaračunava podjetje NorthLink 2 za potnike in vozila, višje od tarif podjetja Pentland Ferries.
There is no public evidence on possible discounts practiced by Pentland Ferries, but even assuming that it does not offer any discounts, the tariffs charged by NorthLink 2 including the ‘friends and family’ discount scheme are not significantly or consistently lower than the tariffs charged by Pentland Ferries.
Ne obstajajo javni dokazi o morebitnih popustih, ki jih nudi podjetje Pentland Ferries, toda tudi pod predpostavko, da ne nudi nobenih popustov, tarife, ki jih zaračunava podjetje NorthLink 2, vključno s shemo popustov „prijatelji in družinski člani“, niso bistveno ali dosledno nižje kot tarife, ki jih zaračunava podjetje Pentland Ferries.
Moreover, the discounts are not available during the busy peak season (July and August).
Popusti tudi niso na voljo med glavno sezono (julij in avgust).
Furthermore, as indicated by the UK authorities, the discount scheme accounts for a very small proportion of NorthLink 2’s carryings (1,6 %) and to an even smaller proportion of NorthLink 2’s revenues (0,5 %).
Poleg tega, kot so navedli organi Združenega kraljestva, se shema popustov nanaša na zelo majhen delež prevozov, ki jih opravlja podjetje NorthLink 2 (1,6 %), in še na manjši delež prihodkov podjetja NorthLink 2 (0,5 %).
The foregone revenue to NorthLink 2 on ticket sales as a consequence of the discounts (ignoring the possible additional demand generated by the discounts) is very limited [74].
Izpad prihodka podjetja NorthLink 2 iz prodaje vozovnic zaradi popustov (brez upoštevanja morebitnega večjega povpraševanja zaradi popustov) je zelo omejen [74].
Finally, Pentland Ferries was unable to prove with concrete figures that it has been financially hit by this discount scheme.
Končno pa podjetje Pentland Ferries ni moglo s konkretnimi številkami dokazati, da je bilo finančno prizadeto zaradi te sheme popustov.
Consequently, the Commission considers that there are no solid grounds for alleging anti-competitive behaviour by NorthLink 2 or any serious affectation of competition on account of this discount scheme.
Posledično Komisija meni, da ne obstajajo trdni razlogi za domnevo o protikonkurenčnem vedenju podjetja NorthLink 2 ali kakršnem koli resnem vplivu na konkurenco zaradi te sheme popustov.
Moreover, it was argued by an interested party that NorthLink 2 is offering Bed & Breakfast accommodation in Orkney (when the ship is static overnight) as a commercial activity at rates which are below cost and that this is affecting hotel-based Bed & Breakfast providers [75].
Poleg tega je zainteresirana stranka trdila, da podjetje NorthLink 2 ponuja nočitev z zajtrkom v Orkneyju (ko ladja ponoči ne pluje) kot komercialno dejavnost po cenah, ki ne pokrijejo stroškov, kar vpliva na hotele, ki ponujajo nočitev z zajtrkom [75].
Although this issue was not raised in the decision to open the formal investigation procedure, no concrete evidence was provided showing that the prices charged by NorthLink 2 for this service are below cost or that this service is negatively affecting revenues of competing hotel-based Bed & Breakfast operators.
Čeprav to vprašanje ni bilo obravnavano v odločitvi o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave, niso bili predloženi nobeni konkretni dokazi, da cene, ki jih zaračunava podjetje NorthLink 2 za to storitev, ne pokrijejo stroškov, ali da ta storitev negativno vpliva na prihodke konkurenčnih hotelov, ki ponujajo nočitev z zajtrkom.
In addition, boat accommodation prices and the costs of providing such accommodation cannot be directly compared with hotel-based accommodation prices and the respective costs.
Cen nastanitve na ladji in stroškov zagotavljanja take nastanitve ni mogoče neposredno primerjati s cenami hotelske nastanitve in stroški le-te.
Consequently, the Commission considers that there are no solid grounds for alleging anti-competitive behaviour by NorthLink 2 or any serious distortion of competition on account of this service.
Posledično Komisija meni, da ne obstajajo trdni razlogi za domnevo o protikonkurenčnem vedenju podjetja NorthLink 2 ali kakršnem koli resnem izkrivljanju konkurence zaradi te storitve.
In any case, any possible distortion of competition would not affect trade between Member States given that it entirely takes place within Orkney.
V vsakem primeru morebitno izkrivljanje konkurence ne bi vplivalo na trgovino med državami članicami, saj se v celoti izvaja v Orkneyju.
Besides from assessing the proportionality of the aid in the past, the Commission must also check whether the provisions of the public service contract offer sufficient guarantees that there will be no overcompensation or anti-competitive behaviour in the future.
Komisija mora poleg podajanja ocene sorazmernosti pomoči v preteklosti tudi preveriti, ali določbe pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe zagotavljajo dovolj jamstev, da ne bo prišlo do prekomernega nadomestila ali protikonkurenčnega vedenja v prihodnosti.
As mentioned above [76], the public tender was carried out in an open and transparent way.
Kot je omenjeno zgoraj [76], je bil javni razpis izpeljan odprto in pregledno.
In the Commission’s view, the provisions of the public service contract are appropriate to prevent overcompensation for the performance of the public service obligations.
Po mnenju Komisije so določbe pogodbe o izvajanju javne službe primerne za preprečevanje prekomernega nadomestila za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne službe.
Compensation is limited to operating costs (including reasonable profit) minus operating revenues.
Nadomestilo je omejeno na stroške poslovanja (vključno z zmernim dobičkom), zmanjšane za prihodke iz poslovanja.
For example, if overcompensation is GBP 1 million, only GBP 275000 will be kept by NorthLink 2.
Na primer, če znaša prekomerno nadomestilo 1 milijon GBP, podjetje NorthLink 2 obdrži samo 275000 GBP.
In case over compensation is GBP 10 million, only GBP 725000 will be kept by NorthLink 2.
Če znaša prekomerno nadomestilo 10 milijonov GBP, podjetje NorthLink 2 obdrži samo 725000 GBP.
