Subsequently, in its decision of February 2004 on Charleroi airport, the Commission explained that ‘Operational aid measures intended to help the launch of new airlines or strengthen certain frequencies may be a necessary tool for the development of small regional airports.
Drugič, merila, na podlagi katerih se izračuna nadomestilo, morajo biti določena vnaprej ter objektivno in pregledno.
The measures may indeed persuade the interested companies to take the risk of investing in new routes.
Tretjič, nadomestilo ne sme presegati tistega, ker je nujno za kritje vseh ali dela stroškov, ki so nastali zaradi izpolnjevanja obveznosti javne službe, pri čemer je treba upoštevati s tem povezane prejemke in razumen dobiček.
However, in order to declare such aid compatible on the basis of Article 87(3)(c) of the Treaty, it should be determined whether this aid is necessary and in proportion to the objective sought, and whether it affects trade to an extent that is contrary to the common interest’.
In še četrtič, če podjetje, ki se mu naloži izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne službe, v konkretnem primeru ni izbrano s postopkom oddaje javnega naročila, ki omogoča, da se izbere tisti ponudnik, ki lahko te storitve opravlja z najnižjimi stroški za skupnost, je treba raven potrebnega nadomestila določiti na podlagi analize stroškov, ki bi jih imelo povprečno, dobro vodeno podjetje, ki je ustrezno opremljeno s potrebnimi sredstvi.
The Commission therefore identified certain conditions to be met in order for this operating aid to be declared compatible, in particular the following:
Za uporabo teh pogojev je treba najprej preučiti vprašanje obstoja resnične SSGP.
The aid must contribute to the objective of Community interest of developing a regional airport through a net increase in traffic on new routes.
Francija, s katero se v zvezi s tem strinjajo tudi upravljavci, meni, da bi bilo treba upravljanje letališča Nîmes glede na njegovo velikost in lokalno vlogo v celoti obravnavati kot SSGP.
The aid must be necessary in the sense that it is not granted for a route already operated by the same or another airline or a similar route.
Francija navaja: „Tudi če regija Languedoc Roussillon ni izolirana regija in njena dostopnost ni odvisna od letalskih povezav letališča Nîmes, kar je, kot je dokazano v točki 2 v nadaljevanju, vprašljivo, pa glede na navedeno še vedno velja, da za upravljanje letališča Nîmes velja cela vrsta obveznosti javne službe in da Komisija ni dokazala, da bi bil zasebni udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu pripravljen prevzeti take obveznosti v enakem obsegu in pod enakimi pogoji brez nadomestila za opravljanje javne storitve.
The aid must have an incentive effect in the sense that it must help to develop an activity that, after a certain period, is likely to become profitable, which implies that the aid is limited in time.
V zvezi s tem ni pomembno, ali je letališče v izolirani regiji.
The aid must be proportional, i.e. the amount must be linked to the net development of traffic.
S smernicami Komisije in ustaljeno sodno prakso je državam članicam priznano polje proste presoje pri opredelitvi obveznosti javne službe.
The aid must have been granted transparently and without discrimination and must not be combined with other types of aid.
Odločilno merilo za ugotovitev obstoja SSGP je, ali bi gospodarski subjekt glede na svoj poslovni interes zadevno storitev prevzel v enakem obsegu ali pod enakimi pogoji“.
The 2005 Guidelines and the new Guidelines precisely define these compatibility principles, but it remains the case that operating aid granted to airlines may be declared compatible by the Commission where it contributes to the development of smaller airports through a net increase in traffic on new routes, where the aid is necessary in the sense that it is not granted for a route already operated by the same or another airline or a similar route, where it is limited in time and where the route for which the aid is granted is likely to become profitable, where the amount is linked to the net development of traffic and where the aid is granted transparently and without discrimination, and where it is not combined with any other type of aid.
Pri tem sklepanju gre za očitno napako pri presoji.
Furthermore, in paragraph 301 of the opening decision, the Commission indicated that it proposed to examine the compatibility of this aid in the light of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU, with neither France nor any interested third party having objected to this approach.
Pri opredelitvi, v kakšnem obsegu je upravljanje letališča storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, je treba obravnavati potrebo v splošnem interesu, ki jo ta dejavnost izpolnjuje.
In conclusion, the Commission takes the view that, in this case, the compatibility of the following measures should be assessed in the light of the aforementioned general principles:
Pri tem velikost letališča prav tako ni upoštevno merilo.
the airport services and marketing services agreements of 10 October 2005 signed by the CCI with Ryanair/AMS.(519) The Commission will therefore assess the compatibility of these measures in the light of the aforementioned conditions.
Kot je Komisija predhodno navedla v svoji praksi odločanja: „Gospodarski razvoj […] ni zadosten razlog za opredelitev storitve kot [SSGP].
Contribution to the development of smaller airports through a net increase in traffic on new route.
Taka opredelitev mora biti utemeljena z razlogi opravljanja javne storitve, ki presegajo splošni interes za razvoj gospodarskih dejavnosti“.
As explained previously, the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002, on the one hand, and the correspondence exchanged in 2004, on the other hand, concerned the limited operation of one additional flight to London during a summer season.
Pogodba že vsebuje posebno določbo o združljivosti pomoči za razvoj gospodarskih dejavnosti (člen 107(3)(c)), medtem ko je v skladu s sodno prakso Sodišča SSGP storitev, ki ima v primerjavi z drugimi gospodarskimi dejavnostmi posebne značilnosti, podjetjem, ki opravljajo SSGP, pa je naložena „posebna naloga“.
This correspondence therefore resulted in an increase in traffic from Nîmes airport.
Pooblastitev podjetja za izvajanje „posebne naloge opravljanja javnih storitev“ na splošno pomeni zagotavljanje storitev, ki jih podjetje, če bi upoštevalo le lasten poslovni interes, ne bi opravljalo ali jih ne bi opravljalo v istem obsegu ali pod istimi pogoji.
The airport services agreement and the marketing services agreement signed respectively with Ryanair and AMS on 10 October 2005, which entered into force on 1 January 2005, concerned the launch of three new routes, as well as the continued operation of the existing route to London.
Države članice ali Unija lahko na podlagi merila splošnega pomena za opravljanje teh storitev določijo posebne obveznosti.
These agreements therefore contributed to a net increase in traffic from Nîmes airport, while also having the objective of contributing to the continued operation of the existing route to London.
Komisija je poleg tega v novih smernicah navedla: „V zvezi z letališči Komisija meni, da se lahko splošno upravljanje letališča v upravičenih primerih obravnava kot SSGP. […] meni, da je to mogoče le, če bi bil del območja, ki ima morebitno korist od letališča, brez tega letališča izoliran od ostalega območja Unije v tolikšni meri, da bi to posegalo v njegov družbeni in gospodarski razvoj.
The measures are not granted for a route already operated by the same or another airline or a similar route.
Taka ocena bi morala ustrezno upoštevati druge načine prevoza in zlasti železniških storitev za visoke hitrosti ali pomorskih povezav s trajekti“.
The correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002 and the correspondence exchanged in 2004 concerned a route that was already being operated, namely London-Nîmes.
Prispevek letališča Nîmes k dinamiki lokalnega gospodarstva, na katerega se je Francija zlasti sklicevala v utemeljitev trditve glede obstoja resnične SSGP, tako sam po sebi ni upošteven dejavnik, če se obravnava neodvisno od prispevka tega letališča k dostopnosti regije.
However, this correspondence specifically aimed to allow the launch of a second flight on this same route.
Ni sporno, da ima lahko letališče, s tem ko izboljša dostopnost regije, zlasti če odpravi njeno izoliranost, pozitivne posledice za lokalni gospodarski razvoj.
The 2005 agreements did not just concern the launch of new routes, but the continued operation of the existing route to London.
Vendar se golo dejstvo, da se zaradi obstoja in dejavnosti letališča ustvarjajo neposredna in posredna delovna mesta ter spodbuja dejavnost lokalnih podjetij, ne more šteti za upoštevno merilo pri dokazovanju obstoja resnične SSGP.
They do not therefore meet the condition that the measure must not be granted for a route that is already operated or a similar route.
Kar zadeva prispevek letališča Nîmes k dostopnosti regije, je Francija zlasti priznala, da je letališče Montpellier od letališča Nîmes oddaljeno samo 63 kilometrov, kar pomeni samo 49 minut vožnje z avtomobilom.
The measures are limited in time and concern routes likely to become profitable.
Priznala je tudi, da je z Nîmesom od leta 2001 vzpostavljena železniška povezava hitrega vlaka (TGV).
The correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002, on the one hand, and the correspondence exchanged in 2004, on the other hand, aimed to allow the limited operation of a second flight to London, respectively during the 2002 summer season and during the 2004 summer season.
Med tem mestom ter na primer Parizom in Lyonom so vzpostavljene pogoste železniške povezave, pri čemer čas potovanja znaša 3 ure oziroma 1 uro in 30 minut.
The facts on record do not suggest that the operation of a second daily flight to London during a summer season was, between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002 or in 2004, likely to become profitable without aid.
Francija v svojih trditvah glede obstoja SSGP ni upoštevala teh železniških povezav.
In fact it appears that the aid in question was granted so that this second flight could be operated on a limited basis for a single season, and not with a view to its operation continuing during subsequent summer seasons.
Kar zadeva cestno omrežje, mesto Nîmes leži v neposredni bližini avtocest A9 in A54, ki ga neposredno povezujeta z večjimi mesti na jugovzhodu Francije, zlasti z Lyonom, Marseillom in Montpellierjem.
Neither the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002 nor the correspondence exchanged in 2004 therefore meets the condition that the aid must be granted for routes likely to become profitable.
Ob upoštevanju navedenega ni mogoče trditi, da bi bil del območja, ki ima morebitno korist od letališča Nîmes, brez tega letališča izoliran od ostalega območja Unije v tolikšni meri, da bi to posegalo v njegov gospodarski in družbeni razvoj.
In addition, the Commission notes that, despite its invitation in this respect, France has not provided any viability study for the various routes and frequencies covered by the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002, the correspondence exchanged in 2004 and the 2005 agreements, which Ryanair submitted with a view to proving that the aid in question was justified.
Francija je v zvezi z letališčem Montpellier navedla: „Čeprav se glede na navedeno uvršča v isto ciljno območje kot letališče Nîmes, saj nista oddaljeni več kot 60 minut vožnje, strošek povratnega potovanja pa ne presega 20 EUR, je vseeno treba poudariti, da rute družbe Ryanair z letališča Montpellier, te so danes štiri, zadostijo turističnemu povpraševanju bolj zahodno kot vzhodno od letališča (tak primer je povezava z letališčem Hahn, čeprav je družba Ryanair ukinila svoje povezave z Nemčijo iz Marseilla) in da se ciljno območje letališče Nîmes delno razlikuje od ciljnega območja letališča Montpellier (zlasti Cévennes, Uzège in severovzhodni del departmaja Gard/južni del departmaja Ardèche v dolini Rone).
Accordingly, based on the facts on record, it seems that, for the authorities that granted the aid in question, there was no clear prospect of these routes and frequencies becoming viable without aid in the more or less short term.
Ima torej svoje ciljno območje.
It should also be noted that the 2005 agreements concerned a number of different routes, some of which were not even identified at the time when the agreements were signed, which confirms that the authorities concerned did not have any information likely to reassure them that these routes and frequencies were viable.
Treba je še navesti, da 51 % potnikov na nizkocenovnih letih odpotuje največ 50 km stran od svojega letališča“.
The Commission further stresses that the studies submitted by the French authorities on the economic impact of the air routes operated by Ryanair analyse the characteristics of Ryanair customers and the impact that they may have on the region’s development, but do not include projections of the future viability of these routes or other routes likely to be operated by Ryanair in the future.
Francija je tako priznala, da obstajajo dejavniki, ki uvrščajo letališče Nîmes na isto ciljno območje kot letališče Montpellier.
On the contrary, an analysis of the agreements signed with Ryanair proves that the aid granted to the latter for these routes was set to increase over time, even after the agreements signed between 2001 and 2005 were terminated, precisely to ensure that these routes were profitable enough for Ryanair to continue operating them.
Ob upoštevanju navedenega ni mogoče trditi, da bi se lahko z obstojem letališča Nîmes preprečila izoliranost, ki bi lahko škodovala gospodarskemu in družbenemu razvoju dela območja, ki ima korist od navedenega letališča, še toliko bolj ker je z Nîmesom, kot je bilo navedeno, vzpostavljena železniška povezava hitrega vlaka (TGV).
Given the above, the Commission concludes that the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002, the correspondence exchanged in 2004 and the 2005 agreements do not meet the condition that the measures must be limited in time and involve routes likely to become profitable.
Poleg tega Francija ni predložila podatkov, na podlagi katerih bi bilo mogoče oceniti obseg take hipotetične škode.
The amount of the measures must be linked to the net development of traffic.
Dejstvo, da se ciljni območji letališč Nîmes in Montpellier ne prekrivata popolnoma, ni zadosten argument.
The aid amounts resulting from the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002 are linked to the development of traffic as these measures aimed to allow the operation of a second daily flight to London.
Ciljni območji dveh različnih letališč, ne glede na to, kako blizu sta, namreč nikoli ne sovpadata popolnoma.
However, this is not the case with the 2005 agreements, which concerned both the launch of new routes and the continued operation of the existing route to London.
Nazadnje, dejstvo, da 51 % potnikov na nizkocenovnih letih odpotuje največ 50 km stran od svojega letališča, ne dokazuje, da – če ne bi bilo letališča Nîmes – potniki, ki bi se želeli vrniti na ciljno območje tega letališča ali z njega odpotovati, večinoma ne bi bili pripravljeni leteti z letališča Montpellier ali na to letališče.
The aid must have been granted transparently and without discrimination and must not be combined with other types of aid.
Te trditve ni mogoče sprejeti, saj, kot je opozorjeno v nadaljevanju, zgolj prispevek dejavnosti k lokalnemu gospodarskemu razvoju sam po sebi ne zadošča za to, da se ta dejavnost opredeli kot SSGP.
According to France, when questioned by the Commission on the meeting of this condition, the CCI wanted to stress that it made considerable efforts to attract airlines other than Ryanair under the same conditions.
Poleg tega komercialni razvoj letališča z uvajanjem novih zračnih rut ali širjenjem neletalskih dejavnosti kot tak ne izpolnjuje merila glede splošnega interesa, da bi ga bilo mogoče opredeliti kot SSGP.
In 1997 the CCI apparently started to look for airlines to mitigate the loss of traffic caused by the arrival of the TGV high-speed rail service.
Komisija zlasti meni, da nadomestilo, ki so ga izplačali javni organi za kritje neto stroškov, nastalih pri zagotavljanju storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena, ne bi smelo zmanjšati gospodarske spodbude za upravljavca letališča, da ima poslovne odnose z letalskimi prevozniki.
According to the CCI, scheduled airlines were not interested and it was therefore forced to negotiate with low-cost airlines.
Komisija tako glede na zgoraj navedeno, na podlagi trditev, ki jih je navedla Francija, ter zlasti ob upoštevanju bližine letališča Montpellier in storitve hitrega vlaka (TGV), ki povezuje Nîmes, meni, da je Francija storila očitno napako pri presoji, s tem ko je upravljanje letališča Nîmes kot celoto opredelila kot SSGP.
According to France, the CCI stresses that its first contacts with Ryanair were made in 1997, which resulted in an initial route — Nîmes-London Stansted — being launched in June 2000.
Natančneje, dejavnosti upravljavca letališča Nîmes, ki vključuje sprejemanje komercialnih letov za prevoz potnikov na tem letališču, ni mogoče obravnavati kot resnične SSGP.
After the TGV’s arrival in Nîmes in mid-2001, and after the withdrawal of the Paris-Nîmes route operated by Air France, the CCI apparently sought to continue this route and made contact with Air Littoral, which took over the service until July 2003.
To pomeni, da različnih ukrepov finančne podpore, ki so zajeti v tej preučitvi in so bili namenjeni financiranju upravljanja dejavnosti letališča kot celote, ni mogoče obravnavati kot finančnih nadomestil, dodeljenih za upravljanje resnične SSGP.
In 2001 and the following years, the CCI also met with the airlines easyJet, Buzz, Volare, My Travel and FlyBe but, despite the encouraging presence of Ryanair at the airport, none of these airlines ultimately wanted to establish an operation there.
Zato ne izpolnjujejo kumulativnih pogojev iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark.
According to France, the CCI stresses that discussions were conducted on the same bases as those with Ryanair and that these conditions were offered to all airlines likely to be interested.
Sicer pa, tudi če bi bilo mogoče upravljanje letališča Nîmes upravičeno v celoti ali deloma opredeliti kot SSGP, zadevni ukrepi ne bi izpolnjevali kumulativnih pogojev iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark.
It is clear from these explanations and from the other facts on record that the aid resulting from the correspondence exchanged between the end of 2001 and the beginning of 2002, the correspondence exchanged in 2004 and the 2005 agreements was negotiated bilaterally, without any transparency, and without a process guaranteeing the absence of discrimination, such as a public invitation to tender.
Ne izpolnjujejo namreč prvega, drugega in četrtega pogoja iz navedene sodbe, kot bo v nadaljevanju dokazano na podlagi sporočila o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za nadomestilo, dodeljeno za opravljanje SSGP (v nadaljnjem besedilu: sporočilo o SSGP).
This aid does not therefore meet the condition of transparency and non-discrimination.
Komisija meni, da je treba v primeru letališča Nîmes preučiti pogoje iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark in pri tem razlikovati med subjekti, ki so dejansko opravljali to gospodarsko dejavnost v obdobju 2000–2012.
In the light of the above, the Commission considers that the State aid resulting from the correspondence of February 2002 and March 2004, which substantially amended the contents of the agreement signed by the CCI with Ryanair on 11 April 2000, and from the airport services and marketing services agreements of 10 October 2005 signed by the CCI with Ryanair/AMS is incompatible with the internal market.
Jasno opredeljene obveznosti javne službe, naložene podjetju (prvi pogoj)
Measures postdating the entry into force of the 2005 Guidelines
Ker je Francija storila očitno napako pri presoji, s tem ko je upravljanje letališča kot celoto opredelila kot SSGP, in ker se je z ukrepi, zajetimi v tej preučitvi, financiralo upravljanje letališča kot celote, prvi pogoj iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark ni izpolnjen.
Ryanair considers that the 2005 Guidelines do not provide a reliable reference framework for assessing the State aid allegedly granted to Ryanair.
Poleg tega mora biti glede na sporočilo o SSGP naloga opravljanja javnih storitev, da bi bil izpolnjen prvi pogoj iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark, dodeljena z enim ali več akti, ki imajo lahko glede na zakonodajo posamezne države članice obliko zakona, podzakonskega akta ali pogodbe.
However, as these guidelines provide the reference framework that was applied from their entry into force until the adoption of the new Guidelines, the Commission takes the view that this framework should in fact be applied to the measures in question.
Poleg tega morajo akt ali vrsta aktov določati vsaj vsebino in trajanje obveznosti javne službe, zadevno podjetje in, če je primerno, ozemlje, vrsto vseh izključnih ali posebnih pravic, ki jih podjetju dodeli zadevni organ, parametre za izračun, nadzor in pregled nadomestila ter ureditve za preprečitev kakršnega koli prekomernega nadomestila in njegovo izterjavo.
The Commission is bound to observe the guidelines that it adopts, even if these are contrary to the Treaty, which neither France nor Ryanair has maintained or proven.
Edini akti Francije, ki bi lahko morda izpolnjevali te pogoje, so odlok iz leta 1965, AOT, koncesijska pogodba, SPOJS in njihove poznejše spremembe, kolikor zbornici nalagajo razne obveznosti v smislu upravljanja (vključno v zvezi z delovnim časom in enako obravnavo uporabnikov), servisiranja, vzdrževanja in razvoja, pri čemer te obveznosti veljajo za določeno obdobje.
The 2005 Guidelines stipulate that operating aid granted to airlines (such as start-up aid for new routes) can be declared compatible with the internal market only under exceptional circumstances and under strict conditions in underprivileged regions of Europe, i.e. regions covered by the derogation set out in Article 107(3)(a) TFEU, the most remote regions and sparsely populated areas.
Vendar razen SPOJS in njegovih aneksov, ki se uporabljajo samo za družbo VTAN, nobeden od teh aktov ne določa ureditve za izračun in pregled mehanizmov finančnih nadomestil.
As Nîmes airport is not situated in this type of region, this derogation does not apply.
Akti, s katerimi so bile dodeljene obveznosti letališki službi zbornice, tako ne izpolnjujejo zahtev prvega pogoja iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark, in to čeprav obveznosti, naložene letališki službi zbornice, ne spadajo med resnične SSGP.
Nîmes airport is a Category D airport (small regional airport) according to the 2005 Guidelines.
Vnaprej ter objektivno in pregledno določeni parametri nadomestila (drugi pogoj)
Small airports often do not have the passenger volumes necessary for them to reach critical mass and the break-even point.
Obdobje upravljanja letališke službe zbornice (2000–2006)
Consequently, the Commission notes that airlines are not always prepared, without appropriate incentives, to run the risk of opening routes from unknown and untested airports.
Vse enkratne subvencije in vračljiva predplačila, ki jih je prejela letališka služba zbornice, so enkratni ukrepi, ki so bili sprotno odobreni za financiranje primanjkljaja iz poslovanja letališča.
This is why, under the 2005 Guidelines, the Commission can accept that public aid be paid temporarily to airlines under certain conditions, if this provides them with the necessary incentive to create new routes or new schedules from regional airports and to attract the passenger numbers which will enable them to break even within a limited period.
Torej ne temeljijo na parametrih za izračun, ki bi bili opredeljeni vnaprej.
The Commission will ensure that such aid does not give any advantage to large airports already largely open to international traffic and competition.
Prav tako niti koncesijska pogodba, v kateri so opredeljene obveznosti letališke službe zbornice za obdobje od februarja do decembra 2006, ne določa mehanizma finančnega nadomestila v korist upravljavca.
