This supports Germany’s claims that the degree of Oechsle in the must needs to be higher if the final product is to be sparkling wine than if it is to be table wine and that a premium had to be paid for the must with a higher degree of Oechsle.
To potrjuje navedbe Nemčije, da mora imeti mošt za proizvodnjo penečega vina več stopinj Oechsleja kot mošt za proizvodnjo namiznega vina, pri čemer je treba za mošt z več stopinjami Oechsleja plačati premijo.
The Commission therefore accepts Germany’s arguments that separate markets exist and that the price must indeed have been higher for must to be used for the production of sparkling wine rather than for must used for the production of table wine.
Komisija zato sprejema trditve Nemčije, da obstajata ločena trga in da je bila cena mošta za proizvodnjo pečenega vina res višja od cene mošta za proizvodnjo namiznega vina.
As a result, the Commission also accepts that the price paid by GfW at the time of purchase cannot be compared to the price for table wine, EUR 0,26 per litre, as done in the opening of the procedure.
Komisija se zato strinja tudi, da cene, ki jo je družba GfW plačala v času nakupa, ni mogoče primerjati s ceno za namizno vino, tj. 0,26 EUR na liter, kakor je bilo navedeno na začetku postopka.
Germany goes on to provide information regarding the achievable price on the relevant market, the market for high quality must to be used for the production of sparkling wine.
Nemčija je predložila informacije v zvezi z dosegljivo ceno na upoštevnem trgu, tj. trgu za visokokakovostni mošt, ki se uporablja za proizvodnjo penečega vina.
Pursuant to this information, on the market of raw wine for sparkling wine, the basic price paid for one litre of must of 60 degrees Oechsle was EUR 0,312 per litre.
V skladu s temi informacijami je bila osnovna cena za liter mošta z vrednostjo 60 stopinj Oechsleja na trgu osnove za peneče vino 0,312 EUR na liter.
Also, according to the import statistics of the German winegrowers association (Deutsche Weinbauverband) for the years 1998-2001, submitted by Germany, imported bulk white wine, which due to its high quality is suitable for the production of sparkling wine, had a market price of EUR 0,38 per litre.
V skladu s statističnimi podatki o uvozu nemškega združenja vinogradnikov (Deutsche Weinbauverband) za obdobje 1998–2001, ki jih je predložila Nemčija, je imelo uvoženo neustekleničeno belo vino, ki je zaradi svoje visoke kakovosti primerno za proizvodnjo penečega vina, tržno ceno 0,38 EUR na liter.
The Commission is willing to accept the arguments of Germany for a relevant market price of around EUR 0,38 per litre, based on the information from its in-house wine experts regarding how the price of wine is determined, the information from the Deutsches Weininstitute as stated above and the profit calculation in GfW’s business plan.
Komisija je na podlagi informacij notranjih strokovnjakov za vino v zvezi s tem, kako se določa cena vina, zgoraj navedenih informacij Deutsches Weininstitute in izračuna dobička v poslovnem načrtu družbe GfW pripravljena sprejeti trditve Nemčije, da je ustrezna tržna cena približno 0,38 EUR na liter.
The business plan of GfW, submitted by Germany, shows that at the time of purchasing the must, GfW was expecting to be able to send 40 % of the stock for preventive distillation at a price of EUR 0,50-0,55 per litre, to sell 60 % of the stock at a price of EUR 0,375 per litre and for 20 % of the stock, they expected to get an additional EU subsidy for stocking of wine of EUR 0,06 per litre before selling it at EUR 0,375 per litre a year later.
Iz poslovnega načrta družbe GfW, ki ga je predložila Nemčija, je razvidno, da je družba v času nakupa mošta pričakovala, da bo lahko 40 % zaloge poslala v preventivno destilacijo po ceni 0,50–0,55 EUR na liter, 60 % zaloge prodala po ceni 0,375 EUR na liter, za 20 % zaloge pa je pričakovala dodatno subvencijo EU za skladiščenje vina v višini 0,06 EUR na liter, preden bi ga naslednje leto prodali za 0,375 EUR na liter.
In total, they expected to sell the stock at an average price of EUR 0,44 to EUR 0,46 and to make a profit of between EUR 0,06 and EUR 0,09 per litre.
Po pričakovanjih naj bi skupno prodala zalogo po povprečni ceni 0,44–0,46 EUR in ustvarila dobiček v višini 0,06–0,09 EUR na liter.
This would leave a total profit of between some EUR 2,64 million and EUR 3,96 million.
To bi pomenilo skupni dobiček približno 2,64–3,96 milijona EUR.
In 1999, GfW sent 40 % of its stocks to preventive distillation for which it received a price of EUR 0,50-0,55 per litre.
Družba GfW je leta 199940 % svojih zalog poslala v preventivno destilacijo, za kar je prejela plačilo 0,50–0,55 EUR na liter.
In view of a fall in prices on the market in wine at the end of 1999 — which had not been expected by GfW considering the higher prices the year before — GfW decided not to sell its remaining stock that year but to store it and sell it in 2000, or if the prices on the market would remain low, to take advantage of a second round of preventive distillation.
Družba GfW se je zaradi znižanja cen na trgu za vino ob koncu leta 1999, ki ga glede na višje cene v predhodnem letu ni pričakovala, odločila, da ne bo prodala preostale zaloge tistega leta, ampak da bo vino uskladiščila in prodala leta 2000. Če pa bi cene na trgu ostale nizke, potem bi zalogo znova poslala v preventivno destilacijo.
This decision was based on the assumption that preventive distillation would be continued.
Ta odločitev je temeljila na predpostavki, da se bo preventivna destilacija še naprej izvajala.
However, the new Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine abolished preventive distillation.
Vendar je bila preventivna destilacija z novo Uredbo (ES) št. 1493/1999 o skupni ureditvi trga za vino odpravljena.
Instead it introduced the option of voluntary distillation to supply the potable alcohol market.
Namesto tega je bila uvedena možnost prostovoljne destilacije za oskrbo trga s pitnim alkoholom.
The newly introduced crisis distillation measure can only be used in exceptional cases of market disturbance.
Novo uvedeni ukrep krizne destilacije se lahko uporabi le pri izrednih motnjah na trgu.
Recital 35 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 explicitly refers to the elimination of the distillation system as an artificial outlet for surplus production.
Uvodna izjava 35 Uredbe (ES) št. 1493/1999 se izrecno sklicuje na odpravo sistema destilacije kot umetne možnosti prodaje presežkov proizvodnje.
The new Regulation entered into force on 31 July 2000.
Nova uredba je začela veljati 31. julija 2000.
For GfW this meant that the distillation measures in the 2000/01 wine year were considerably less favourable than those in previous years.
Za družbo GfW je to pomenilo, da so bili ukrepi za destilacijo v vinskem letu 2000/2001 bistveno manj ugodni od ukrepov iz prejšnjih let.
In distillation to supply the potable alcohol market only around half of the previously achieved average price of EUR 0,50-0,55 per litre could be achieved.
Pri destilaciji za oskrbo trga s pitnim alkoholom je bilo mogoče doseči le približno polovico prej dosežene povprečne cene 0,50–0,55 EUR na liter.
In the view of Germany this development could not have been predicted when GfW decided to keep the wine in storage.
Tega razvoja po mnenju Nemčije v času, ko se je družba GfW odločila uskladiščiti vino, ni bilo mogoče napovedati.
The Commission, on the other hand, believes that this development was in fact foreseeable.
Komisija na drugi strani meni, da je bilo ta razvoj dejansko mogoče predvideti.
The new common organisation of the market in wine explicitly set out to eliminate the distillation system.
Izrecen cilj nove skupne ureditve trga z vinom je bila odprava destilacijskega sistema.
Thus it ought to have been clear to GfW, at the time it was decided to go for a second round of distillation, that distillation measures in the second part of 2000 and onwards would not provide any relief from the falling prices on the wine market.
Zato bi se morala družba GfW v času, ko se je odločila za ponovno destilacijo, zavedati, da ukrepi za destilacijo v drugi polovici leta 2000 in pozneje ne bi zagotovili izboljšanja položaja zaradi znižanja cen na trgu z vinom.
However, the arguments around whether GfW should have known about the change in the Regulation are irrelevant.
Vendar trditve, da bi morala družba GfW vedeti za spremembo Uredbe, niso pomembne.
The business plan at the time of purchase, against which GfW’s behaviour as a private investor should be judged, only included a first round of preventive distillation, which did take place and for which GfW received EUR 0,50-0,55 per litre.
Poslovni načrt v času nakupa, na podlagi katerega je treba presojati ravnanje družbe GfW kot zasebne vlagateljice, je zajemal le prvi krog preventivne destilacije, ki je bila izvedena in za katero je družba prejela 0,50–0,55 EUR na liter.
It did not include a second round of preventive distillation and therefore the expected profit from such distillation was not a part of the overall profit calculation at the time of purchase.
Načrt ni zajemal drugega kroga preventivne destilacije, zato pričakovan dobiček na podlagi take destilacije ni bil vključen v izračun celotnega dobička v času nakupa.
It was not part of the business plan and though there is no doubt that GfW’s decision to go for a second round of distillation when the market price fell was a bad one, it cannot be seen as State aid to the winegrowing enterprises and merchants at the time of purchase.
Ni bil del poslovnega načrta in, čeprav ni dvoma, da je bila odločitev družbe GfW za drugi krog destilacije, ko se je tržna cena znižala, slaba, je ni mogoče obravnavati kot državno pomoč za vinogradniška podjetja in trgovce v času nakupa.
Based on the above, the Commission concludes that GfW paid the market price for the must purchased in the autumn of 1999 and that therefore, no State aid in the meaning of Article 107(1) of the TFEU was awarded the winegrowing enterprises and merchants.
Komisija na podlagi navedenega ugotavlja, da je družba GfW za mošt, kupljen jeseni 1999, plačala tržno ceno, zato vinogradniškim podjetjem in trgovcem ni bila dodeljena državna pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) PDEU.
At the time of subordination and waiver of claims by WAK
V času podreditve in odpovedi terjatev banke WAK
In recital 114 it was concluded that the subordination and waiver of claims by WAK was done purely out of self interest and in accordance with the private creditor test and that there therefore was no State aid to GfW.
V uvodni izjavi 114 je ugotovljeno, da sta bili podreditev in odpoved terjatev banke WAK izvedeni izključno zaradi lastnega interesa in v skladu s preskusom zasebnega upnika ter zato ne pomenita državne pomoči za družbo GfW.
The fact that the decision by WAK favoured the winegrowing enterprises and merchants has no relevance as this was not the intention, but just a consequence of WAK trying to maximise the recovery of its own funds.
Dejstvo, da se je banka WAK odločila v korist vinogradniških podjetij in trgovcev, ni pomembno, ker to ni bil namen, ampak le posledica prizadevanja banke WAK, da bi dosegla čim večjo povrnitev lastnih sredstev.
The Commission concludes that when subordinating and waiving its claims, WAK did not award any State aid in the meaning of Article 107(1) of the TFEU to the winegrowing enterprises and merchants.
Komisija ugotavlja, da banka WAK s podreditvijo in odpovedjo svojih terjatev vinogradniškim podjetjem in trgovcem ni zagotovila državne pomoči v smislu člena 107(1) PDEU.
Classification of the aid as illegal aid
Opredelitev pomoči kot nezakonite pomoči
Since the aid element contained in the loan by WAK in favour of GfW was granted and paid without prior notification to the Commission, it is illegal within the meaning of Article 1(f) 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 [37].
Ker je bil element pomoči iz posojila banke WAK v korist družbe GfW dodeljen in izplačan brez predhodne priglasitve Komisiji, gre za nezakonito pomoč v smislu člena 1(f) Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 659/1999 z dne 22. marca 1999 o določitvi podrobnih pravil za uporabo člena 93 Pogodbe ES [37].
Exemptions provided for in Article 107 of the Treaty regarding the loan to GfW
Izjeme iz člena 107 Pogodbe v zvezi s posojilom družbi GfW
It must therefore be examined whether one of the exemptions to the prohibition of State aid under Article 107(1) of the TFEU applies.
Zato je treba preučiti, ali velja katera od izjem pri prepovedi državne pomoči v skladu s členom 107(1) PDEU.
From the current viewpoint, the exemptions provided for in Article 107(2) and (3)(a), (b) and (d) are not applicable, since the aid in question is neither:
Trenutno velja, da se izjeme iz člena 107(2) ter (3)(a), (b) in (d) ne uporabljajo, ker zadevna pomoč ni:
aid to promote the economic development of areas where the standard of living is abnormally low or where there is serious underemployment, nor
pomoč za pospeševanje gospodarskega razvoja območij, kjer je življenjska raven izjemno nizka ali kjer je podzaposlenost velika,
aid to promote the execution of an important project of common European interest or to remedy a serious disturbance in the economy of a Member State, nor
pomoč za pospeševanje izvedbe pomembnega projekta skupnega evropskega interesa ali za odpravljanje resne motnje v gospodarstvu države članice,
aid to promote culture and heritage conservation where such aid does not affect trading conditions and competition in the Union to an extent that is contrary to the common interest.
pomoč za pospeševanje kulture in ohranjanja kulturne dediščine, kadar takšna pomoč ne škoduje trgovinskim pogojem in konkurenci v Uniji v obsegu, ki je v nasprotju s skupnimi interesi.
Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU is therefore the only exemption which might possibly apply.
Edina izjema, ki bi se morda lahko uporabljala, je člen 107(3)(c) PDEU.
At the time of the granting of the aid, aid to primary producers was evaluated directly under Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU.
Pomoč za primarne proizvajalce je bila v času odobritve pomoči ocenjena neposredno v skladu s členom 107(3)(c) PDEU.
In accordance with the praxis at the time, aid for investments, credit, the livestock sector, producer organisations, publicity and promotion, compensation for damages caused by diseases, insurance premiums and technical assistance could when fulfilling certain criteria be deemed compatible with the internal market.
V skladu s takratno prakso je lahko pomoč za naložbe, kreditiranje, živinorejski sektor, organizacije proizvajalcev, oglaševanje in promocijo, nadomestilo za škodo zaradi bolezni, zavarovalne premije in tehnično pomoč ob izpolnjevanju nekaterih pogojev veljala za združljivo z notranjim trgom.
None of the mentioned forms of compatible aid can however be used to exempt the aid in question.
Vendar nobene navedene oblike združljive pomoči ni mogoče uporabiti za izvzetje zadevne pomoči.
In addition, concerned not to leave any avenue unexplored, the Commission has examined whether the guidelines for rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty might not be applicable to the case in question.
Poleg tega je Komisija zaradi izčrpnosti preučila, ali se za zadevni primer ne morejo uporabljati smernice za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah.
The first condition to be fulfilled by an undertaking if it is to benefit from rescuing or restructuring aid is that it should be considered as being in difficulty within the meaning of the guidelines on State aid for rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty [38].
Prvi pogoj za izkoriščanje pomoči za reševanje ali prestrukturiranje je, da mora za zadevno podjetje veljati, da je v težavah v smislu smernic o državni pomoči za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah [38].
There is no indication from the information held by the Commission that the undertaking was in difficulty within the meaning of the abovementioned guidelines when the aid was granted.
Iz informacij, ki jih ima Komisija, ni razvidno, da bi bila družba ob odobritvi pomoči v težavah v smislu zgoraj navedenih smernic.
It is only a year later due to a slump in the market that GfW finds itself in difficulty.
Družba GfW se je zaradi znižanja cen na trgu znašla v težavah šele leto pozneje.
In any case, the Commission wishes to point out that it is up to the Member State concerned to fulfil the duty of cooperation it has towards the Commission by providing all the elements required for the Commission to be able to check that all the conditions of the derogation from which it is asking to benefit have been met [39].
V vsakem primeru želi Komisija poudariti, da mora zadevna država članica, da bi izpolnila svojo nalogo sodelovanja s Komisijo, predložiti vse dokaze, na podlagi katerih lahko Komisija preveri, ali so posebni pogoji, ki jih zahteva, izpolnjeni [39].
In the case in question, Germany has not supplied sufficient information enabling the Commission to assess the data in the light of these guidelines, nor has the German authorities supplied sufficient documentation to enable the Commission to evaluate the aid in the light of the other forms of compatible aid mentioned in paragraph 126, and this in spite of the information provided by the Commission in point 44 of the decision to initiate the investigative procedure.
Nemčija v zadevnem primeru ni predložila zadostnih informacij, ki bi Komisiji omogočile oceno podatkov ob upoštevanju teh smernic, prav tako ni predložila zadostne dokumentacije, ki bi Komisiji omogočila oceno pomoči ob upoštevanju drugih oblik združljive pomoči iz točke 126, in sicer kljub informacijam, ki jih je Komisija predložila v točki 44 sklepa o sprožitvi preiskovalnega postopka.
Aid measures which compatibility is to be assessed directly under Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU has to be done so restrictively.
Ukrepe pomoči, katerih združljivost je treba oceniti neposredno v skladu s členom 107(3)(c) PDEU, je treba oceniti omejujoče.
It must be clearly demonstrated that the positive effects of the aid measure outweigh the damaging effects the aid could have on competition and the proper functioning of the internal market.
Jasno je treba dokazati, da so pozitivni vplivi ukrepa pomoči večji od škodljivih vplivov, ki bi jih pomoč lahko imela na konkurenco in pravilno delovanje notranjega trga.
Unilateral State aid measures which are simply intended to improve the financial situation of producers but which in no way contribute to the development of the sector are not considered to fulfil these criteria and hence constitute operating aid which is incompatible with the internal market.
Enostranski ukrepi državne pomoči, ki so namenjeni le izboljšanju finančnega položaja proizvajalcev, pri čemer ne prispevajo k razvoju sektorja, ne izpolnjujejo teh meril, zato spadajo med pomoči za tekoče poslovanje, ki niso združljive z notranjim trgom.
For the above reasons, the aid granted to GfW as an element of the loan does not comply with any of the possible exemptions to Article 107(3).
Pomoč, odobrena družbi GfW kot element posojila, zaradi navedenih razlogov ni v skladu z nobeno morebitno izjemo od člena 107(3).
It therefore constitutes aid incompatible with the internal market.
Zato gre za pomoč, ki ni združljiva z notranjim trgom.
No other exceptions under Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU are applicable.
Druge izjeme na podlagi člena 107(3)(c) PDEU se ne uporabljajo.
For the above reasons, the Commission finds that the loan granted to GfW may not be considered to be compatible with the internal market.
Komisija zaradi navedenih razlogov ugotavlja, da posojila, odobrenega družbi GfW, ni mogoče šteti za združljivega z notranjim trgom.
For the above reasons, the Commission finds that the subsequent subordination of claims and waiver of claims and future interest payments does not constitute State aid in favour of GfW nor in favour of the winegrowing enterprises and merchants.
Komisija zaradi navedenih razlogov ugotavlja, da naknadna podreditev terjatev ter odpoved terjatev in prihodnjih plačil obresti ne pomenita državne pomoči v korist družbe GfW ali v korist vinogradniških podjetij in trgovcev.
For the above reasons, the Commission finds that the purchase of must was done at market prices and in accordance with common business practice and therefore does not constitute State aid to the winegrowing enterprises and merchants.
Komisija zaradi navedenih razlogov ugotavlja, da je bil nakup mošta izveden po tržnih cenah in v skladu z običajno poslovno prakso ter zato ne pomeni državne pomoči v korist vinogradniških podjetij in trgovcev.
Where illegally granted State aid is found to be incompatible with the internal 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 z notranjim trgom, je naravna posledica te ugotovitve njeno vračilo, da se, kolikor je mogoče, vzpostavi konkurenčni položaj, ki je obstajal pred odobritvijo pomoči.
As no legal successor to GfW exists, recovery is not possible in accordance with settled case-law [40],
Ker družba GfW nima pravnega naslednika, vračilo v skladu z ustaljeno sodno prakso ni mogoče [40] –
The State aid, amounting to the difference between the interest rate charged on the loan to GfW and the market interest rate plus the risk premium which should have been charged on the loan, unlawfully granted by Germany, in breach of Article 108(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, in favour of Gesellschaft für Weinabsatz Pfalz GmbH is incompatible with the internal market.
Državna pomoč, ki pomeni razliko med obrestno mero, zaračunano za posojilo družbi GfW, in tržno obrestno mero s prištetjem premije za tveganje, ki bi se morala zaračunati za posojilo, ter jo je Nemčija nezakonito odobrila v korist družbe Gesellschaft für Weinabsatz Pfalz GmbH ob kršitvi člena 108(3) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije, je nezdružljiva z notranjim trgom.
The subordination and waiver of claims by WAK does not constitute aid to GfW or the winegrowing enterprises and merchants within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Podreditev in odpoved terjatev banke WAK ne pomenita pomoči družbi GfW ali vinogradniškim podjetjem in trgovcem v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
The purchase of must in 1999 by GfW does not constitute aid to the winegrowing enterprises and merchants within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Nakup mošta s strani družbe GfW leta 1999 ne pomeni pomoči vinogradniškim podjetjem in trgovcem v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
Germany shall not need to recover the aid referred to in Article 1 from the beneficiary as the beneficiary is insolvent and has been dissolved and deleted from the trade registry and there is no legal successor.
Nemčiji ni treba izterjati pomoči iz člena 1 od upravičenca, saj je upravičenec nesolventen ter je bil razpuščen in izbrisan iz trgovskega registra, pri čemer nima pravnega naslednika.
