According to TBI, the agreements concluded at Charleroi airport are similar to the arrangements entered into by TBI with Ryanair and other low-cost airlines, particularly at Stockholm Skavsta airport.
S seznama infrastrukture, povezane z varnostjo obratovanja, ki so ga predložili nemški organi in je povzet v preglednici v uvodni izjavi 58 tega sklepa, je razvidno, da je ta infrastruktura nepogrešljiva za varnost prometa na tleh, in sicer: neprekinjeno električno napajanje letaliških ploščadi, transformatorskih postaj, luči vzletno-pristajalne steze, luči letaliških ploščadi itd. Opozoriti je treba, da je tako stališče Komisije Splošno sodišče potrdilo v sodbi v zadevi Freistaat Sachsen proti Komisiji [97], izdani na podlagi ničnostne tožbe, vložene zoper navedeni sklep Komisije.
Granting discounts on landing fees and ground handling fees is a common business practice to attract airlines that can bring in a significant volume of passengers.
Iz opisa storitev, povezanih z varnostjo prometa na tleh in letališkega območja, v aneksu št. 5 k pogodbi o koncesiji z dne 9. julija 1991 in splošnim pogojem koncesije, sklenjenim 10. marca 2006, izhaja, da navedeni stroški, in sicer redno vzdrževanje letališkega območja, povezano z zagotavljanjem varnosti, tehnična služba za vzdrževanje zgradb, vzletno-pristajalnih stez, okolice in prevoznih sredstev, manjša asfaltna dela, redno vzdrževanje in popravila vzletno-pristajalne steze in dostopov, vzdrževanje in zagotavljanje delovanja razsvetljave in označb na vzletno-pristajalni stezi, košnja, odstranjevanje ostankov gum z vzletno-pristajalne steze in njeno označevanje ter odstranjevanje snega, dejansko ustrezajo storitvam, povezanim z varnostjo obratovanja, ki jih je Komisija v odločbi o letališču Leipzig Halle štela za negospodarske.
The contributions made in terms of paying hotel, staff training or marketing costs must be compared against the investment made and the risk taken by the carrier.
Storitve, povezane z varnostjo
The ‘marketing’ contributions benefit the airport as its image is improved and it sees an increase in the number of passengers.
Po mnenju Belgije so storitve, povezane z varnostjo, dejavnosti, ki spadajo med naloge javne oblasti, ker gre za naloge, ki jih tradicionalno izvaja država.
TBI offers this type of contribution, especially when an operator is establishing a new service or increasing the frequency of certain flights on a given route.
Belgija se v podkrepitev svojega sklepanja sklicuje na evropske predpise in odločbo Komisije v zvezi z letališčem Leipzig [98].
According to HRL Morrison, a private investor might adopt the approach taken by Charleroi airport.
Storitve spremljanja in evidentiranja letov, načrtovanja predvidenih letov ter usmerjanja
It would base its offer on certain determining factors: the volume of passengers that an airline could bring to the airport; the airline's willingness to commit to the long term through contracts; the specific needs of the airline; the schedule of aircraft movements and its dovetailing with airport activities (existing traffic); and the needs in terms of terminal and ground handling resources.
Po mnenju Belgije so naloge spremljanja in evidentiranja letov, načrtovanja predvidenih letov in usmerjanja bistveni elementi varnosti v civilnem letalstvu ter torej ustrezajo nalogam javne oblasti, ker so temeljnega pomena za varnost na letališču.
The benefits of such a transaction should be envisaged over a period of around 20 years, with activities expected to take off after three to five years.
Iz navedenega izhaja, da so po mnenju Belgije vse storitve splošnega pomena, ki so opredeljene v členu 25 splošnih pogojev koncesije in za katere je Valonija plačevala nadomestilo družbi BSCA, negospodarske dejavnosti, ki so v skladu s prakso odločanja Komisije in evropsko sodno prakso izključene s področja uporabe člena 107(1) PDEU.
With regard to a 15-year agreement, Morrison's shareholders would regard this as commercially acceptable if a return on the investment could be made within around five years from the agreement being signed.
Belgija poudarja, da je te storitve prej izvajala valonska uprava, in sicer pred letom 1991 storitve gasilske in vzdrževalne službe ter pred letom 2008 storitve, povezane z varnostjo, ter storitve spremljanja in evidentiranja letov, načrtovanja predvidenih letov in usmerjanja.
COMMENTS FROM BELGIUM
Družba BSCA je z zagotavljanjem teh storitev zgolj prevzela obveznosti, ki so javnim organom naložene na podlagi mednarodnih obveznosti, ki izhajajo iz standardov ICAO, ali v skladu z evropskimi predpisi.
Comments from Belgium on the measures granted to BSCA
Podredno: financiranje gospodarskih dejavnosti v splošnem interesu v skladu s sodbo v zadevi Altmark
Absence of State aid granted to BSCA
Belgija navaja, da če bi Komisija ugotovila, da se nekatere od navedenih dejavnosti štejejo za gospodarske dejavnosti, bi morala ugotoviti, da financiranje teh dejavnosti vključuje nadomestila, ki se na podlagi meril iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark [99] ne štejejo za pomoč.
Comments from Belgium following the 2012 extension decision
Ta nadomestila namreč izpolnjujejo merila iz sodne prakse v zadevi Altmark, na podlagi katerih je mogoče izključiti obstoj državne pomoči.
Provision of the infrastructure by SOWAER
Obstoj jasno opredeljenih obveznosti javne službe
Main argument presented by Belgium: the investment programme was approved by the Walloon Government prior to 12 December 2000
Po mnenju Belgije so obravnavane dejavnosti, ki so povezane z varnostjo in varovanjem na področju civilnega letalstva in letaliških dejavnosti, v splošnem interesu.
According to Belgium, the investment programme was decided by the Walloon Government in July 2000 and confirmed in November 2000, i.e. before the Aéroports de Paris judgment [92] (hereinafter ‘ADP judgment’).
V členu 25 splošnih pogojev koncesije, priloženih pogodbi o koncesiji z dne 9. julija 1991, so opredeljene obveznosti družbe BSCA v okviru nalog, povezanih z varnostjo in varovanjem.
This judgment marks the date when the TFEU rules on State aid became applicable to the financing of airports.
V tej določbi je pojasnjeno, da te storitve „izvaja koncesionar v splošnem interesu“.
The framework agreement of 20 July 2000, setting out the conditions for the development of regional airports and associated environmental measures, was the agreement reached within the Walloon Government through which the Region undertook to allocate part of its budget to the development of its own infrastructure at Charleroi airport.
Iz navedenega člena izhaja, da je Valonija koncesionarju zaupala izvajanje teh storitev in ga je torej pooblastila.
The decision of 8 November 2000 implemented the decision of 20 July 2000 by converting said framework agreement into a multiannual investment programme.
Objektivno in pregledno opredeljeni parametri nadomestila
Both decisions must therefore be considered as a whole, as the second supplements and clarifies the first, particularly with regard to the concrete schedule for implementing the financial measures decided.
Parametri nadomestila so objektivno in pregledno opredeljeni s členom 25 splošnih pogojev koncesije, ki določa, da mora družba BSCA voditi ločen poslovni račun za dejavnosti, na katere se nanaša navedeni člen.
Rebuttal of certain elements presented by the Commission in the 2012 extension decision
Stroški, ki jih ni mogoče v celoti pripisati storitvi splošnega pomena, se sorazmerno pripišejo glede na delež zaposlenih, vključenih v izvajanje storitve splošnega pomena, kar zadeva osebje, glede na delež površin, namenjenih tem storitvam, ali glede na druga objektivna merila, ki jih mora odobriti Valonija.
On the question of the absence of commitment towards a third party
Nadomestilo je bilo od leta 2006 za delovna mesta na področju storitev požarne varnosti in vzdrževanja in od leta 2010, kar zadeva storitve, povezane z varnostjo, navigacijskim uradom in usmerjanjem, navzgor omejeno na znesek, podrobno določen v členu 25 splošnih pogojev koncesije, ob upoštevanju indeksacije.
No third-party beneficiary was identified in these decisions, as the Region's investments were intended for itself.
Znesek nadomestila nikakor ne more biti višji od stroškov, ki jih ima družba BSCA dejansko s temi storitvami.
According to Belgium, the wording of these two decisions was therefore less formalistic than in a decision granting aid to a third party.
Zato so bili parametri nadomestila opredeljeni vnaprej in podrobno, kar je torej v skladu z drugim merilom iz sodbe v zadevi Altmark.
In the case of aid granted to a third party, the Region would have adopted the investment principle and amounts in the same way, without any additional procedure, except for sending a letter notifying the government decision, which was pointless in this case.
Omejitev nadomestila na nastale stroške
However, according to Belgium, this lack of formalism did not mean that these decisions were not binding.
Po mnenju Belgije različni mehanizmi preprečujejo čezmerno nadomestilo:
Although the Region was the beneficiary of the decisions made, the adoption of a government decision creates a commitment on the part of the government.
pred določitvijo zgornje meje nadomestila sta natančna opredelitev stroškov, ki jih financira Valonija, in načelo ločenega stroškovnega računovodstva preprečevala vsakršno čezmerno nadomestilo.
The fact that this commitment was unilateral was not peculiar to this case.
Poleg tega je bil določen nadzorni mehanizem za preverjanje proračuna, ki ga je predložila družba BSCA, na eni strani in neobstoja čezmernega nadomestila po sprostitvi nadomestila na drugi strani;
In fact, any financial measure, regardless of its beneficiaries, is always decided through a unilateral administrative act of the granting authority, which controls the application, amendment or withdrawal of said act.
od leta 2006 znesek prispevka za storitve, povezane s požarno varnostjo ter varnostjo prometa na tleh in letališkega območja, ne sme preseči 5774000 EUR, indeksiranih letno;
No formal letter granting aid was therefore sent to a beneficiary undertaking, even though the Fleuren Compost judgment [93] states that this is the act that must be regarded as the legally binding act through which the competent authority undertakes to grant the aid and that therefore marks the date of granting of the aid.
nadomestilo za storitve, povezane z varnostjo, navigacijskim uradom in usmerjanjem, je bilo od leta 2010 navzgor omejeno na letno indeksiran znesek, ki je bil enak stroškom teh storitev v letu 2009.
In the absence of such a document, the only possible date is the date of the government decisions granting the investment (principle, amounts and schedule).
Poleg tega člen 25 določa, da prejeti znesek nikakor ne sme preseči dejansko nastalih stroškov in da bi se v primeru čezmernega nadomestila samodejno uporabil proračunski izravnalni mehanizem v breme proračuna za naslednje leto.
On the question of the irrevocable, firm and definitive nature of the 2000 decisions
Opozoriti je treba, da proračun vnaprej določi družba BSCA, nadzira pa ga valonska uprava.
Belgium indicates that, according to the Commission, the decisions of 20 July and 8 November 2000 were substantially amended at a later date and were not therefore irrevocable, firm and definitive.
Ta vsako leto izvaja tudi preglede na kraju samem, da se prepriča, ali družba BSCA upošteva zahtevo iz člena 25 splošnih pogojev koncesije.
According to Belgium, a distinction must be made in this respect between decisions providing for new investments in new projects and decisions implementing investments decided previously, if necessary through certain adjustments.
Primerjava s podobnim, dobro vodenim in ustrezno opremljenim podjetjem
In this case, Belgium cites, as evidence that the decisions of July and November 2000 were binding and irrevocable, the fact that no new financing decision was subsequently adopted.
Po mnenju Belgije družbe BSCA ni treba primerjati z drugim ustrezno opremljenim in dobro vodenim podjetjem, ker je jasno, da gre za ustrezno opremljeno in dobro vodeno podjetje.
The only decisions made subsequently by Wallonia, and then by SOWAER, were for the purpose of applying and implementing the financing measures in accordance with the government decisions of July and November 2000.
Družba BSCA upošteva veljavne mednarodne računovodske standarde in vsi količniki iz Sporočila Komisije o uporabi pravil Evropske unije o državni pomoči za nadomestilo, dodeljeno za opravljanje storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, z dne 20. decembra 2011 kažejo učinkovito upravljanje te družbe.
The subsequent adjustments to the investment amounts were not therefore new investment decisions, but the necessary adaptation, as a result of general developments in the situation, of what had already been agreed in July and November 2000.
To je med drugim leta 2009 pomagalo pritegniti zasebne vlagatelje v okviru delne privatizacije družbe BSCA.
Some of the amounts in the framework agreement and financing programme had to be subsequently reassessed, particularly due to the increased cost of raw materials, the refinement of the necessary investments as a result of technical studies, technical constraints associated with the granting of permissions and the result of organising public procurement.
Nazadnje, iz vzpostavljenega finančnega mehanizma je razvidno, da je nadomestilo, ki ga izplača družba BSCA, po definiciji nižje od tržne cene vseh storitev, ki so ji zaupane, ker je to nadomestilo od leta 2006 navzgor omejeno za storitve, povezane s požarno varnostjo ter varnostjo prometa na tleh in letališkega območja, od leta 2010 pa tudi za storitve zagotavljanja varnosti.
According to Belgium, such budgetary or technical adjustments cannot be regarded as substantial amendments.
Povečanje kapitala družbe BSCA s strani družbe SOWAER v letu 2002
Also, aware of the limitations when estimating such investments, the government had stipulated from the start that certain items (including the construction of a new terminal) might be reassessed ‘according to the airport's actual activity’ or insofar as they were ‘dependent on the airport's actual needs’.
Po navedbah Belgije Komisija ni nikoli, do sklepa o razširitvi iz leta 2012, izrazila zadržka glede povečanja kapitala družbe BSCA.
As the airport's actual activity and needs inevitably evolved over the life of a framework agreement and investment programme covering several years, in Belgium's opinion it was logical for the government to have calculated certain items subject to the constant change in these factors.
Nasprotno, izrecno je priznala, da je šlo za transakcijo, izvedeno v skladu z načelom zasebnega vlagatelja (glej uvodno izjavo 132 odločbe iz leta 2004).
According to Belgium, the government's desire to calculate and set its commitments from the start, albeit subject to subsequent refinements, was evident on the adoption of the framework agreement of 20 July 2000 and on the adoption of the investment programme of 8 November 2000.
Glede na najnovejše podatke je družba BSCA ustvarila dobiček, na podlagi katerega bi lahko samo za leto 2010 svojim javnim in zasebnim delničarjem razdelila 6505595 EUR.
The adjustments subsequently made to these decisions cannot call into question the binding nature of the commitment made on these dates by the government.
Poslovni izid zadnjih petih let je prikazan v spodnji preglednici.
In the alternative, if certain adjustments were to be regarded as so substantial that in reality they appeared to be new investments, and not the subsequent adaptation of an investment already granted, which is not the case, only this investment, taken in isolation, could be regarded as subsequent to the decisions of 20 July and 8 November 2000.
IZKAZ POSLOVNEGA IZIDA
According to Belgium, in order for the reassessment of this investment to result in its requalification as a new investment, the amendment made must apply not only to the extent, but also to the nature of the investment set.
(v milijonih EUR)
This amendment must be such as to allow it to be asserted that the project envisaged at the time of the July and November 2000 decisions could not in any way relate to the project specifically financed and implemented subsequently, regardless of legitimate developments in the general situation.
Prodaja in storitve
Therefore, for example, an ‘additional’ investment, not justified by a subsequent change in the airport's actual needs, but decided for the purpose of providing additional infrastructures over and above those initially specified in July and November 2000, could be regarded, in relation to this addition only, as a new investment decided outside the 2000 framework agreement and investment programme.
Dobiček tekočega leta
In this case, although it appeared that certain items had been underestimated or were unfeasible within the time-limit allowed, all the investments made had in principle been stipulated by the decisions of July and November 2000.
Donos kapitala
Although the amounts were subsequently amended, this was due to new factors that could not have been anticipated or accurately determined at the time of the decisions.
Za povečanje kapitala, ki ga je izvedla družba SOWAER, je značilna 26,09-odstotna interna stopnja donosnosti, kar je podobno oceni, ki jo je družba Deloitte & Touche izvedla leta 2003, kar potrjuje verodostojnost te analize.
Belgium's arguments based on the assessment of the 2000 decisions
Ob upoštevanju navedenega je treba ugotoviti, da bi zasebni vlagatelj nesporno izvedel tako naložbo.
According to Belgium, the assessment of the decisions of 20 July 2000 and 8 November 2000 confirms the legally binding nature of the commitments contained in those decisions.
Poleg tega je Komisija pri presoji povečanja kapitala, v skladu s katero „te pomisleke potrjuje ugotovitev, da družba BSCA ni krila stroškov infrastrukture, ki ji je bila dana na voljo, in različnih storitev, ki jih je opravljala družba SOWAER“, napačno uporabila pravo.
Decision of the Walloon Government of 20 July 2000 approving the framework agreement
Komisija mora namreč za vsako obliko intervencije uporabiti posebna merila, potrebna za presojo njene zakonitosti, in za vsako intervencijo oceniti, ali gre za pomoč in ali je v primeru pritrdilnega odgovora pomoč združljiva z notranjim trgom ali ne.
The framework agreement and investment programme were genuine decisions, which imposed a binding commitment on the government.
Filozofija povečanja kapitala v družbi BSCA se namreč razlikuje od cilja dajanja na voljo letališke infrastrukture, zlasti v tedanjih razmerah.
Furthermore, the fact that this act was referred to as a ‘framework agreement’ did not prevent the Commission, in an earlier decision, from finding that this was a legally binding act and from using the date of signature of said act as the date when aid was granted [94].
Komisija torej ne more združiti obeh vrst intervencije, da bi preverila skupno donosnost.
According to Belgium, the framework agreement of July 2000 went well beyond an agreement in principle, as it specifically covered the charging of the investments.
Stališča Belgije glede pripomb tretjih oseb v zvezi z neobstojem pomoči za družbo BSCA, prejetih po sprejetju sklepa o razširitvi iz leta 2012
It determined the appropriation items and also assessed the investment costs so that the expenditure could be immediately charged to the budget.
Koncesijska dajatev, ki jo plačuje družba BSCA
Moreover, the government was careful to stipulate that an ‘ad hoc financial mechanism’ should be put in place.
Belgija v odgovor na pripombe družbe BAC v zvezi z dajatvami, ki jih družba BSCA plačuje za uporabo infrastrukture, navaja, da nekatere dajatve, ki jih omenja družba BAC, niso upoštevne za letališče Charleroi, zlasti:
This confirms that the government was already planning to create a new public body responsible for airport infrastructure.
„slot coordination fee“, ker na letališču Charleroi ni zastojev,
Confirming the implementation by SOWAER of the government decisions of July and November 2000, the SOWAER financial plan approved by the government on 23 May 2001 referred to the framework agreement of 20 July 2000, which removes any doubt about the commitments made by Wallonia.
„terminal navigation charge“, ki je ne plačujejo regionalna letališča, ki imajo manj kot 50000 premikov v okviru komercialnih letov.
According to Belgium, this method of working is not in fact material when compared to the principle of approving the investment programme, which is the fundamental issue in this case.
Poleg tega je po navedbah Belgije v nasprotju s tem, kar trdi družba BAC, družba BSCA dejansko predvidela pristojbino za centralizirano infrastrukturo kot upravljavec infrastrukture za družbe za zemeljsko oskrbo, vključno z družbo BSCA kot oskrbovalcem.
The formation of SOWAER was simply a way of implementing the decisions of July and November 2000, as it is purely Wallonia's financial vehicle.
Taka pristojbina je vključena v pogodbo, ki jo je družba BSCA sklenila z družbo Ryanair.
Although the specific financial mechanism for implementing the investments decided by the Region may have been determined after the decisions of July and November 2000, the commitments of the Walloon authorities were real and binding on the financial mechanism ultimately chosen.
Pristojbina, ki jo je naložila zvezna uprava, v višini 18 centov na potnika na odhodnem letu, je v pristojnosti zvezne države in ne družbe BSCA.
Decision of 8 November 2000 of the Walloon Government implementing the framework agreement of 20 July 2000 and approving the multiannual investment programme for Brussels South Charleroi airport
Pristojbina za potnike z omejeno mobilnostjo je bila določena na podlagi dejanskih stroškov, ki jih je imela družba BSCA.
On 8 November 2000 the Walloon Government adopted a decision implementing its decision of 20 July 2000.
V zvezi s tem po navedbah Belgije že primerjava med velikostjo infrastrukture letališča Charleroi in infrastrukture bruseljskega letališča pokaže, da zagotavljanje te storitve za osebe z omejeno mobilnostjo vključuje manjše stroške na letališču Charleroi kot na bruseljskem letališču, če ne zaradi drugega, že zaradi kilometrov, ki jih je treba narediti, da pridemo do letala ali izstopimo iz terminala.
Each investment described in the note approved by the government was assessed and its cost precisely determined.
Ker to spada med pristojnosti javnega organa, Valonija za to plačuje nadomestilo, vendar je bilo to nadomestilo s pogodbo o koncesiji med družbo BSCA in Valonijo omejeno navzgor, stroške, ki presegajo to zgornjo mejo, pa krije družba BSCA.
In conclusion, according to Belgium, the investment programme 2001-2010 for Brussels South Charleroi airport was clearly decided prior to 12 December 2000, which was the date of the ADP judgment.
Vendar nikakor ni nujno, da družba BSCA te stroške s pristojbino prenese na potnike.
Argument presented by Belgium in the alternative: the infrastructure financing complies with the private investor principle
Kar zadeva pristojbine za parkiranje, Belgija meni, da je podatek v preglednici, ki jo je poslala družba BAC, napačen, ker je navedeno, da na letališču Charleroi ni pristojbin za parkiranje, kar ne drži, saj je v ceniku, objavljenem na spletišču družbe BSCA, jasno navedeno, da te pristojbine znašajo 1,98 EUR na dan (24 ur) in na tono.
In any event, according to Belgium, the infrastructure financing for Charleroi airport complies with the private investor principle.
Financiranje storitev splošnega pomena
In order to prove this, Belgium has produced a table of cash flows for the investments in the new terminal and car park between 2002 and 2036 [95].
Več tretjih oseb, ki so predložile pripombe, predvsem družbi Brussels Airlines in BAC, je navedlo pripombe glede financiranja storitev splošnega pomena, ki jih družba BSCA opravlja za Valonijo, in zanikajo, da bi se lahko nekatere storitve, ki jih zagotavlja družba BSCA, in sicer varnost, varovanje, požarna varnost in storitve, povezane z varnostjo prometa na tleh in letališkega območja, štele za dejavnosti, ki so izključene s področja uporabe člena 107(1) PDEU.
