Accordingly, these subsidies do not satisfy the condition laid down in Article 4(d) of the 2005 SGEI Decision, according to which the act or acts entrusting the operation of a service of general economic interest must specify the parameters for calculating, controlling and reviewing the compensation.
Glede na to, da so tokovi, ki sestavljajo to pomoč, v tem primeru zapleteni in so se začeli na različne dneve v letu, pri nekaterih kategorijah prihodkov pa so celo stalni, Komisija meni, da je pri izračunu obresti za vračilo sprejemljivo šteti, da se je zadevna pomoč izplačala na koncu leta, in sicer 31. decembra v vsakem zadevnem letu.
This is a second reason why the 2004 and 2009 subsidies could not have been exempted from the notification obligation laid down by Article 108(3) TFEU based on the 2005 SGEI Decision.
V skladu z ustaljeno sodno prakso lahko država članica, ki naleti na nepredvidene ali nepredvidljive težave ali opazi posledice, ki jih je Komisija spregledala, te težave predloži v obravnavo Komisiji skupaj s predlogi za ustrezne spremembe.
In the light of the above, the 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies constitute unlawful aid.
V takem primeru morata Komisija in zadevna država članica v dobri veri sodelovati za odpravo težav, pri tem pa v celoti upoštevati določbe PDEU.
As explained above, the equipment subsidies granted in 2004 and 2009 reduced the investment costs that the CCIPB would normally have had to bear.
Komisija poziva Francijo, naj ji predloži kakršno koli težavo, na katero naleti pri izvajanju tega sklepa,
They therefore constitute investment aid.
SPREJELA NASLEDNJI SKLEP:
Furthermore, they were granted before 4 April 2014, which was the date when the new Guidelines entered into force.
Člen 1
According to said guidelines, the Commission will apply to unlawful investment aid to airports the rules in force at the time when the aid was granted.
Državna pomoč, ki jo je Francija nezakonito dodelila družbi Ryanair v nasprotju s členom 108(3) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije na podlagi pogodbe o letaliških storitvah in storitvah trženja, ki sta jo 28. januarja 2003 sklenili Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn in družba Ryanair za ruto Pau–London Stansted, je nezdružljiva z notranjim trgom.
With regard to the 2009 subsidy, the 2005 Guidelines were in force when this subsidy was granted and this is therefore the text that should be applied.
Francija je družbama Ryanair in Airport Marketing Services nezakonito dodelila naslednje ukrepe, ki vključujejo državno pomoč in so nezdružljivi z notranjim trgom, v nasprotju s členom 108(3) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije:
However, the 2004 subsidy was granted before the 2005 Guidelines entered into force, at a time when there was no specific compatibility criterion for investment aid to airports.
pogodba o letaliških storitvah, ki sta jo 30. junija 2005 sklenili Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn in družba Ryanair, ter pogodba o storitvah trženja, ki sta jo na isti dan sklenili Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn in družba Airport Marketing Services, v zvezi z ruto Pau–London Stansted;
The Commission must therefore assess this subsidy directly on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU, taking into account its decision-making practice in this regard.
sprememba z dne 16. junija 2009 pogodbe o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 30. junija 2005 sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services, v zvezi z ruto Pau–London Stansted;
It should be recalled that the Commission’s decision-making practice with regard to the assessment of the compatibility of aid granted to airport operators was consolidated by the 2005 Guidelines.
pismo Gospodarske zbornice Pau-Béarn družbi Ryanair z dne 25. septembra 2007, s katerim so bili pogoji pogodbe o letaliških storitvah, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 30. junija 2005 sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services, razširjeni na ruto Pau–Charleroi, in pogodba o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn na isti dan sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services;
The Commission therefore takes the view that the compatibility of the 2004 subsidy with the internal market should be assessed in the light of the criteria set out in the 2005 Guidelines.
sprememba z dne 16. junija 2009 pogodbe o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 25. septembra 2007 sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services;
Therefore, based on the 2005 Guidelines, the Commission has assessed the 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies in terms of the following criteria:
pismo Gospodarske zbornice Pau-Béarn družbi Ryanair z dne 17. marca 2008, s katerim so bili pogoji pogodbe o letaliških storitvah, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 30. junija 2005 sklenila z družbo Ryanair, razširjeni na ruto Pau–Bristol, in pogodba o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 31. marca 2008 sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services v zvezi z isto ruto;
the construction and operation of the infrastructure meets a clearly defined objective of general interest (regional development, accessibility, etc.),
pismo Gospodarske zbornice Pau-Béarn družbi Ryanair z dne 16. junija 2009, s katerim so bili pogoji pogodbe o letaliških storitvah, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 30. junija 2005 sklenila z družbo Ryanair, razširjeni na ruto Pau–Bristol, in pogodba o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn na isti dan sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services v zvezi z isto ruto, ter
the infrastructure is necessary and proportional to the objective which has been set,
pogodba o storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 28. januarja 2010 sklenila z družbo Airport Marketing Services v zvezi z rutami Pau–London, Pau–Charleroi in Pau–Beauvais, ter ugotovljena „implicitna“ pogodba o letaliških storitvah.
the infrastructure has satisfactory medium-term prospects for use, in particular as regards the use of existing infrastructure,
Državna pomoč, ki jo je Francija nezakonito dodelila družbi Transavia v nasprotju s členom 108(3) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije na podlagi pogodbe o letaliških storitvah in storitvah trženja, ki jo je Gospodarska zbornica Pau-Béarn 23. januarja 2006 sklenila z družbo Transavia, je nezdružljiva z notranjim trgom.
all potential users of the infrastructure have access to it in an equal and non-discriminatory manner,
Člen 2
the development of trade is not affected to an extent contrary to the Union’s interest.
Subvenciji za opremo iz let 2004 in 2009, ki ju je Francija dodelila Gospodarski zbornici Pau-Béarn in skupaj znašata 5,8 milijona EUR, pomenita državno pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije, Francija pa je z njuno dodelitvijo kršila člen 108(3) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
Moreover, in addition to the need to comply with the criteria set out in recital 539, State aid to airports, like any other State aid, must be necessary and proportional to the objective that has been set in order to be declared compatible with the internal market based on Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Pomoč iz odstavka 1 tega člena je državna pomoč, združljiva z notranjim trgom na podlagi člena 107(3)(c) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije.
The Commission will therefore assess compliance with these criteria of necessity and proportionality in addition to the aforementioned criteria from the 2005 Guidelines.
Člen 3
The Commission notes first of all that, according to the 2005 Guidelines, costs eligible for investment aid to an airport must be limited to the investment costs of airport infrastructure properly speaking (runways, terminals, aprons, etc.) or facilities that directly support them (firefighting facilities, security or safety equipment).
Francija od upravičencev zahteva vračilo pomoči iz člena 1.
However, eligible costs must exclude the costs of commercial activities not directly linked to the airport’s core activities, such as the construction, financing, use and renting of land and buildings, not only for offices and storage but also for the hotels and industrial enterprises located within the airport, as well as shops, restaurants and car parks.
Zneskom, ki jih je treba vrniti, se prištejejo obresti od izplačila pomoči upravičencu do njihovega dejanskega vračila.
The entire 2004 subsidy was used to finance taxiway work.
Obrestna mera se izračuna z obrestnoobrestnim računom v skladu s poglavjem V Uredbe (ES) št. 794/2004 in Uredbe Komisije (ES) št. 271/2008 o spremembi Uredbe (ES) št. 794/2004.
All the investment costs of this work were eligible for investment aid under the 2005 Guidelines as the taxiway is an airport infrastructure.
Francija z dnem sprejetja tega sklepa prekliče vsa neporavnana plačila pomoči iz člena 1.
The 2009 subsidy was granted to help finance a series of investments in the runway and lighting and also, with regard to a small portion of the total investment costs, in an extension to the car park.
Člen 4
The runway and lighting form part of the airport infrastructure.
Vračilo pomoči iz člena 1 se izvede takoj in učinkovito.
Consequently, the investments costs of this infrastructure are eligible.
Francija zagotovi, da se ta sklep izvede v štirih mesecih od datuma, ko je bila o njem uradno obveščena.
However, the car park costs must be excluded from the eligible costs as car parks do not form part of the airport infrastructure.
Člen 5
The total amount of the 2009 subsidy, i.e. EUR 4 100 000, does not exceed the total amount of the eligible costs of the runway and lighting, i.e. EUR 4 700 000.
Francija v dveh mesecih od datuma uradnega obvestila o tem sklepu Komisiji predloži naslednje informacije:
As a result, the 2009 subsidy was used purely to finance eligible costs.
zneske pomoči, ki jih je treba vrniti v skladu s členom 3;
The 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies (for which the total amounts are respectively EUR 1 600 000 and EUR 4 100 000) do not exceed the eligible costs calculated for these two subsidies (respectively EUR 2 600 000 and EUR 4 700 000), but do involve high aid intensities (respectively 62 % and 88 %).

The 2004 equipment subsidy was used to finance taxiway work in order to upgrade this equipment to ensure a better flow of commercial traffic at peak times.
dokumente, ki dokazujejo, da je bilo od upravičencev zahtevano vračilo pomoči.
The eligible investments funded through the 2009 equipment subsidy involved runway and lighting repair work that was needed so that the aerodrome could maintain its capacity and be recertified for medium-sized aircraft with a capacity of 200 to 250 seats.
Francija Komisijo redno obvešča o poteku nacionalnih ukrepov za izvajanje tega sklepa do vrnitve celotne pomoči iz člena 1.
The Category III lighting that was installed in 1992-1993 and the surface of the manoeuvring areas that was laid in 1990 needed, on the one hand, to be repaired in view of their age (given that the service life is usually in the order of 10 to 15 years) and, on the other hand, to be upgraded.
Na prošnjo Komisije bo nemudoma predložila informacije o sprejetih in načrtovanih ukrepih za uskladitev s tem sklepom.
As a result, neither the 2004 subsidy nor the 2009 subsidy resulted in significant increases in capacity.
Člen 6
They essentially funded repair and upgrade work designed to keep the infrastructure in a condition to continue accommodating the type of aircraft and volume of traffic handled up to that point, and to improve the airport’s operation at peak times.
Ta sklep je naslovljen na Francosko republiko.
Pau airport handles a significant amount of business traffic, as this accounts for between 60 % and 70 % of all its traffic.
V Bruslju, 23. julija 2014
France has indicated in this respect that the Pau basin was the third main economic area in the Greater Southwest Region, behind the basins of Lacq and Oloron.
Podpredsednik
Pau is home to the international and regional headquarters of a variety of large businesses and also research and production centres.
Člena 87 in 88 Pogodbe ES sta z učinkom od 1. decembra 2009 postala člen 107 oziroma člen 108 Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije (v nadaljnjem besedilu: PDEU).
The absence of an airport at Pau or a significant reduction in its capacity could harm this economic activity as business travellers generally prefer to minimise their journey time, particularly so that they can make round trips within the day.
Določbe novih členov so vsebinsko povsem enake prejšnjima členoma.
As a result, if business travellers to and from Pau had to use an airport, such as Tarbes airport, that was not in the immediate vicinity of the city, this could be regarded as a handicap by numerous businesses.
V tem sklepu je treba sklicevanje na člena 107 in 108 PDEU razumeti kot sklicevanje na člen 87 oziroma člen 88 Pogodbe ES, kadar je to primerno.
Furthermore, Pau airport handles significant tourist flows, particularly due to its proximity to the Pyrénées and their winter sports resorts.
S PDEU so bile uvedene tudi nekatere spremembe terminologije, pri čemer je na primer besedo „Skupnost“ nadomestila beseda „Unija“, besedno zvezo „skupni trg“ besedna zveza „notranji trg“, besedno zvezo „Sodišče prve stopnje“ pa „Splošno sodišče“.
Studies conducted by the CCIPB specifically indicate that Ryanair passengers alone, who form the bulk of the tourist traffic, spent a total of EUR 8 000 000 in 2005 and EUR 56 000 000 in 2010 during their stay in the Pau region.
V tem sklepu se uporablja terminologija iz PDEU.
For all these reasons, the equipment subsidies received by the CCIPB in 2004 and 2009 contributed to the economic development of Pau and its region, given this airport’s impact on tourism and economic activity in general.
UL C 41, 15.2.2008, str. 11, in UL C 96, 31.3.2012, str. 22.
These subsidies also contributed to the region’s accessibility, particularly for tourists and business travellers.
UL C 41, 15.2.2008, str. 11.
In this respect, it should be noted that Pau airport is 50 km from Tarbes airport and 100 km from Biarritz airport.
Komisija je 14. aprila 2008 prosila zbornico, da predloži nezaupno različico svojih pripomb.
Biarritz airport is therefore unlikely, given its distance from Pau airport, to be regarded as a viable alternative to the latter by time-sensitive travellers, particularly business travellers.
Zbornica je 16. aprila 2008 potrdila, da pripombe ne vsebujejo nobenih zaupnih informacij, ki se ne smejo posredovati francoskim organom.
Moreover, it seems that these three airports have quite different types of traffic.
Komisija je 10. aprila 2008 prosila družbo AMS, da predloži nezaupno različico svojih pripomb.
Pau handles a large volume of business traffic, marked by the relatively high proportion of national traffic carried by Air France and regional traffic within its total traffic figures.
Družba AMS je 19. maja 2008 Komisiji predložila nezaupno različico pripomb.
Biarritz handles a large volume of tourist traffic heading for the Atlantic coast and Spanish border, marked by considerable seasonal traffic in summer and significant ‘low-fare’ traffic.
UL C 96, 31.3.2012, str. 22.
This is illustrated by the fact that this airport’s traffic remained at around 400 000 passengers per year over the 2001-2011 period, except in 2008 when there was a peak of 678 000 passengers due to the Lourdes site celebrating an anniversary.
Družba AMS je 1. maja 2012 Komisiji predložila nezaupno različico pripomb.
This information tends to indicate that these airports serve fairly different market segments and are therefore only imperfect substitutes for each other.
Družba Ryanair je potrdila, da njene pripombe ne vsebujejo nobenih zaupnih informacij.
It has also been corroborated by traffic statistics, which are presented in more detail in recitals 567 to 572 as part of the analysis of the extent of the competition distortions caused by the aid.
UL C 99, 4.4.2014, str. 3.
As a result, investment aid enabling Pau airport to remain in good condition contributes to the region’s accessibility to a certain extent, as it avoids passengers and airlines having to choose an imperfect substitute.
UL C 113, 15.4.2014, str. 30.
Furthermore, there is no high-speed railway line through Pau, with the closest one being in Bordeaux, which is about 1 hour 40 minutes away by road.
S tem dopisom je Francija predložila tudi sporočilo zbornice, vendar je navedla, da se francoski organi ne strinjajo z oceno, navedeno v sporočilu.
For most of the destinations accessible by a short-haul flight from Pau, using the train as an alternative mode of transport would therefore markedly increase the journey time, making the train a very imperfect substitute.
V vsakem primeru to sporočilo v bistvu ponavlja pripombe, ki jih je zbornica prej poslala neposredno Komisiji.
Even the closest Spanish airports are around two hours away by road and therefore, for most passengers, probably do not constitute viable alternatives to Pau airport.
Zaupne informacije.
As a result, it seems that, despite the existence of alternative modes of transport to flights from Pau and despite the proximity of Tarbes airport, the 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies helped to improve the region’s accessibility and also regional economic development.
Upravno sodišče v Pauju, 3. maj 2005, Air Méditerranée.
The infrastructure is necessary and proportional to the objective set
Sodba upravnega sodišča v Pauju je bila izrečena v tožbi, ki jo je septembra 2003 vložil letalski prevoznik Air Méditerranée, ki opravlja čarterske lete na letališču v Tarbesu, ki je blizu letališča Pau.
As indicated in recital 546, the work funded by the 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies did not significantly increase capacity, but was simply designed to keep the infrastructure in a condition to accommodate the traffic handled up to that point and to cope better with peak periods.
Letalski prevoznik Air Méditerranée je menil, da je bil oškodovan zaradi konkurence, ki je bila po njegovem mnenju nelojalna, z njegovimi rutami med Londonom in jugozahodno Francijo.
These investments did not therefore exceed what was necessary in order for the airport to continue accommodating, under good conditions, including in peak periods, the traffic that it had handled up to that point.
Ti pogodbi sta bili že zajeti v sklepu o začetku postopka (glej oddelek 3.1).
These investments were therefore necessary and proportional to the objective set.
UL C 312, 9.12.2005, str. 1.
In the 2000-2009 period, 2002 was the only year when traffic fell below 600 000 passengers.
450 000 EUR od tega zneska je bilo porabljenih za razširitev parkirišča.
However, even in this year, the number of passengers (580 000) was still close to this threshold.
Sodba Državnega sveta z dne 20. maja 1998, Syndicat des Compagnies aériennes autonomes (SCARA).
Given this fairly variable traffic, but which almost always exceeded 600 000 passengers per year, and also given the stable presence of Air France, which accounted for most of the traffic and a significant proportion of the business traffic, in both 2004 and 2009 the CCIPB could therefore rely on substantial prospects for use, which were at least equal to the airport’s basic level of activity, namely around 600 000 passengers per year.
Zdaj kodificiran v členu 1609w splošnega davčnega zakonika.
These prospects therefore justified the investments aimed at keeping the infrastructure in a condition to accommodate the traffic handled up to that point and at coping better with peak periods, without, however, significantly increasing capacity.
Nevarnosti v zvezi s prostoživečimi živalmi vključujejo zlasti nevarnosti zaradi ptic, kot so trki letal s pticami, ki lahko ogrozijo varnost ljudi in blaga na letalu.
It should be recalled in this respect that the taxiway work funded by the 2004 subsidy was designed to upgrade the infrastructure so that peak periods could be better managed.
Ta naloga lahko vključuje na primer postavitev in vzdrževanje ograj okrog javnih območij in območij omejenega gibanja ali namestitev sistemov video nadzora ob robu območja omejenega gibanja.
Furthermore, with regard to the runway and lighting repair work carried out in 2009, this involved like-for-like repairs as there was no increase in area, no runway extension to accommodate more efficient aircraft and no improvement in the operating minima under low-visibility conditions.
Ta naloga vključuje predvsem ukrepe za zmanjšanje hrupa skupaj z ukrepi v zvezi s potmi leta, kjer je to primerno, ter nadzor nad kakovostjo zraka in vode v okolici letališč.
The service life of this equipment is in the order of 10 to 15 years.
Splošni stroški izhajajo zlasti iz podpornih funkcij, kot so upravljanje človeških virov, finančne zadeve, finančna revizija, nabava, neizključni informacijski sistemi, pravna služba, splošne službe, splošno upravljanje, računovodstvo in nadzor upravljanja.
In conclusion, the renovated infrastructure therefore had satisfactory medium-term prospects for use when the equipment subsidies were granted.
V nadaljnjem besedilu pojem „letalski prevozniki“ pomeni letalske prevoznike in njihove hčerinske družbe, kar torej izrecno vključuje družbo AMS.
Access to the infrastructure in an equal and non-discriminatory manner
AEA se sklicuje zlasti na sodbo Državnega sveta z dne 27. februarja 2006, Compagnie Ryanair Limited (št. 264406).
Pau airport can be accessed, without any particular restrictions, by any airline wanting to use it.
V členu 3 pogodbe o letaliških storitvah iz leta 2005 je navedeno:
This infrastructure can therefore be accessed in an equal and non-discriminatory manner within the meaning of the 2005 Guidelines.
„Ne-ekskluzivna pogodba.
Development of trade not affected to an extent contrary to the common interest
Ta pogodba je sklenjena na ne-ekskluzivni podlagi.
As indicated above, Pau airport is 50 km from Tarbes airport and 100 km from Biarritz airport.
Pogoji, odobreni družbi Ryanair na podlagi te pogodbe, se bodo uporabljali tudi za vsakega letalskega prevoznika, s katerim se letališče Pau-Pyrénées odloči uvesti novo nizkocenovno mednarodno ruto.
Biarritz airport is unlikely, given its distance from Pau airport, to be regarded as a viable alternative to the latter by a substantial proportion of travellers.
Ti pogoji se bodo oblikovali glede na značilnosti novih mednarodnih rut, zlasti glede na pogostost letov, število prepeljanih potnikov in tarifne stopnje za lete“.
It is therefore unlikely to have been significantly affected by the aid received by Pau airport.
Sklep o začetku postopka, odstavek 43.
By contrast, Tarbes airport is fairly close to Pau airport, given that it is 50 km away and less than 40 minutes by road.
Odločba Komisije 2005/842/ES z dne 28. novembra 2005 o uporabi člena 86(2) Pogodbe ES za državne pomoči v obliki nadomestila za javne storitve, dodeljene nekaterim podjetjem, pooblaščenim za opravljanje storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena (UL L 312, 29.11.2005, str. 67).
At first sight, its activity is therefore likely to have been substantially affected by the 2004 and 2009 equipment subsidies.
Sklep o razširitvi formalnega postopka preiskave, uvodna izjava 38.
However, several factors temper this observation.
Glej na primer sodbo v zadevi C-303/88, Italijanska republika proti Komisiji Evropskih skupnosti, Recueil 1991, str.
Firstly, Pau airport is a long-standing airport that has been handling scheduled flights for many decades.
I-1433, točka 11, in sodbo v zadevi T-358/94, Compagnie Nationale Air France proti Komisiji Evropskih skupnosti, Recueil 1996, str.
The equipment subsidies under review involved one-off aid, fairly distant in time, and basically limited to the financing of work needed to keep the infrastructure in a condition to accommodate the traffic handled up to that point.
II-2109, točke 58–61.
They were not used to finance significant increases in capacity.
V zvezi s tem glej Odločbo Komisije z dne 14. julija 2004 v zadevi C 25/2004 – Nemčija – DVB-T v Berlinu-Brandenburgu, uvodna izjava 20.
