As explained in recital 34, on an individual basis, while for some of the companies there was a decrease in the number of eligible licences between 2015 and 2016, for some of them, like for instance for the Özpekler Group or Mittos, the number of eligible licences remained the same before and after the change.
V skladu s prakso, da se vsako leto sprejmejo novi odloki in sporočila, ki urejajo subvencije za proizvajalce postrvi, je bil leta 2017 odlok iz leta 2016 nadomeščen z odlokom št. 2017/10465 o podpornih ukrepih za kmetijstvo leta 2017 (v nadaljnjem besedilu: odlok iz leta 2017).
In addition to the legislative change introduced by Article 4.16 of the decree of 2016, with the same decree Turkey also implemented a new direct subsidy for closed system productions from 1 January 2016.
Poleg tega so bili v sporočilu št. 2017/38 o podpori akvakulturi podrobneje opredeljeni pogoji za dodelitev subvencij.
Article 4.16 of the decree stipulated that the goal was ‘to benefit from the water resources available in the country in maximum level, purposing to ensure the cultivation of aquaculture products and different species at the locations where the water is restricted’.
V odloku iz leta 2017 so se ohranile določbe člena 4.16 o številu upravičenih dovoljenj.
The subsidy for closed system production could also be granted to producers of other fish species stipulated in the decree, such as sea bream and sea bass.
Hkrati je bilo z njim uvedeno povišanje zneska neposrednih subvencij za proizvodnjo postrvi.
The amount of the subsidy was set at 0,5 TL per kg of fish produced within this system, irrespective of the type of fish species produced.
Subvencije so po novem znašale:
Subsidies to be granted for the trout production of 2017
za proizvodnjo do 250 ton je subvencija znašala 0,75 TRL/kg (v primerjavi z 0,65 TRL/kg leta 2016),
In line with the practice of adopting each year new decrees and communiqués governing the subsidies to trout producers, in 2017 the decree of 2016 was replaced by Decree No 2017/10465 regarding the agricultural supports to be provided in 2017 (‘the decree of 2017’).
za proizvodnjo od 250 do 500 ton je subvencija znašala 0,375 TRL/kg (v primerjavi z 0,325 TRL/kg leta 2016),
Furthermore, Communiqué No 2017/38 regarding aquaculture support detailed conditions of the subsidies to be granted.
za proizvodnjo nad 500 ton subvencije niso bile dodeljene.
The decree of 2017 maintained the provisions of Article 4.16 on the number of eligible licences.
Z odlokom iz leta 2017 so bile uvedene tudi nove subvencije.
At the same time it introduced an increase of the amount of direct subsidies to trout production.
V skladu z informacijami, ki jih je predložila Turčija, so te nove subvencije delno nadomestile in dopolnile neposredne subvencije, proti katerim so bili v prvotni preiskavi uvedeni izravnalni ukrepi, namenjene pa so bile spodbujanju uživanja rib v Turčiji, izpolnjevanja okoljskih standardov, boja proti boleznim ter kakovosti, diverzifikacije in sledljivosti živil.
The new amounts of subsidies were the following:
Nove subvencije so bile subvencije za:
up to the production of 250 tons, the subsidy was set at 0,75 TL/kg (compared to 0,65 TL/kg in 2016);
postrvi mase več kot 1 kg,
between 250 tons and 500 tons, the subsidy was set at 0,375 TL/kg (compared to 0,325 TL/kg in 2016);
označevanje rib,
no subsidies for the production above 500 tons.
dobre kmetijske prakse.
The decree of 2017 also introduced new subsidies.
Subvencije za proizvodnjo postrvi mase več kot 1 kg so bile namenjene spodbujanju diverzifikacije proizvodov.
According to the information provided by Turkey, those new subsidies partially replaced and complemented the direct subsidies countervailed in the original investigation and aimed to support the consumption of fish in Turkey, fulfilment of environmental standards, fight against diseases and food quality, diversification and traceability.
Subvencija je znašala 0,25 TRL/kg za proizvodnjo do 250 ton in polovico tega zneska (tj. 0,125 TRL/kg) za proizvodnjo od 250 do 500 ton.
The new subsidies were the following:
Tudi za tovrstno subvencijo se je uporabljala omejitev meril za upravičenost iz člena 4.16, ki je pojasnjena v uvodnih izjavah 32 do 35.
Subsidies to trout over 1 kg;
Po razkritju sta vložnik in Turčija trdila, da se je subvencija za postrvi mase več kot 1 kg nanašala na zadevni izdelek le, če je masa postrvi znašala med 1 kg in 1,2 kg.
Subsidies for fish labelling;
Trdila sta, da postrvi mase več kot 1,2 kg niso spadale v opredelitev zadevnega izdelka.
Subsidies for good farming practices.
Komisija se je strinjala, da postrvi mase 1,2 kg ali več, ki se prodajajo v obliki cele ribe, niso zadevni izdelek.
The aim of subsidies for production of trout exceeding 1 kg was to promote product diversification.
V skladu z veljavnimi ukrepi se zato za subvencije za proizvodnjo takih rib, ki bi se prodajale izključno na drugem trgu, ne smejo uvesti izravnalni ukrepi.
The subsidy amount was set at 0,25 TL/kg up to the production of 250 ton and half of the amount (0,125 TL/kg) for the production between 250 and 500 tons.
Vendar je proizvodnja postrvi mase med 1 kg in 1,2 kg leta 2017 imela koristi od sheme in je spadala v obseg izdelka.
After disclosure, Turkey and the applicant argued that the subsidy for trout over 1 kg related to the product concerned only if its weight lies between 1 and 1,2 kg.
Tudi če je Turčija leta 2018 nameravala omejiti subvencijo za postrvi mase več kot 1,25 kg, v odloku ni nobenega pravnega merila, ki izključuje subvencijo, kadar se postrvi prodajajo v drugačni obliki.
They argued that the trout weighing over 1,2 kg did not fall under the definition of the product concerned anymore.
Glede na prejete informacije je običajna praksa v industriji, da se nekatere velike pridobljene postrvi predelajo in prodajajo kot zadevni izdelek, na primer v obliki filetov.
Moreover, according to Turkey, the Ministry of Agriculture will limit the subsidy to trout weighing over 1,25 kg in the upcoming Communiqué defining the conditions of the subsidy schemes for the production of 2018.
Zato ustrezni znesek sheme subvencij koristi zadevnemu izdelku.
Therefore, the subsidy for trout over 1 kg should not be taken into account when assessing the evolution of subsidy amounts to trout producers in both 2017 and 2018.
Poleg tega se lahko Komisija v svoji analizi sklicuje le na ustrezne končne zakonodajne in upravne akte, ki v celoti veljajo v državi izvoznici.
The Commission agreed that a trout sold in the form of a whole fish weighing 1,2 kg or more was not the product concerned.
Ker sporočilo o opredelitvi pogojev za leto 2018 še ni bilo sprejeto, predvidenih pogojev, ki jih je pojasnila Turčija, na tej stopnji ni mogoče upoštevati.
Hence, subsidies given to a production of such fish, which would exclusively serve a different market, are not countervailable under the current measures.
Zato Komisija te sheme ni izključila iz splošne analize, temveč je svoje ugotovitve izpopolnila glede na gospodarski učinek sheme (glej uvodno izjavo 67).
However, production of trout weighing between 1 kg and 1,2 kg had been benefiting from the scheme in 2017 and fell under the product scope.
Subvencije za označevanje rib so bile namenjene spodbujanju sledljivosti in kakovosti rib.
Moreover, Article 4(f) of the Communiqué No 2017/38 grants the subsidy to a fish farmer ‘when harvested’.
Subvencija je znašala 0,02 TRL/kos za proizvodnjo do 250 ton in polovico tega zneska (tj. 0,01 TRL/kos) za proizvodnjo od 250 do 500 ton.
Even if Turkey intended to restrict the subsidy for trout over 1,25 kg in 2018, there is no legal criterion in the decree excluding the subsidy when the trout is sold in another form.
Omejitev se je uporabljala za posamezno dovoljenje za proizvodnjo.
According to the information received, it is a common practice in the industry to process some of the big harvested trout and to sell it as the product concerned, for instance in the form of fillets.
Tudi za tovrstno subvencijo se je uporabljala omejitev meril za upravičenost iz člena 4.16, ki je pojasnjena v uvodnih izjavah 32 do 35.
Therefore, the corresponding amount of the subsidy scheme benefits the product concerned.
Subvencija za označevanje rib bi se lahko dodelila tudi proizvajalcem drugih vrst rib, določenih v odloku, kot sta pagar in brancin.
Furthermore, in its analysis the Commission can only rely on relevant final legislative and administrative acts fully in effect in the exporting country.
Zainteresirane strani po razkritju niso izpodbijale te ugotovitve.
Since the Communiqué defining the conditions for 2018 is not yet adopted, the intended conditions explained by Turkey cannot be taken into account at this stage.
Subvencije za dobre kmetijske prakse so bile namenjene izpolnjevanju nekaterih standardov, povezanih z okoljem, varnostjo hrane, dobrim počutjem rib in sledljivostjo.
The Commission therefore refused to exclude this scheme from its overall analysis, and rather refined its findings with respect with the economic effect of the scheme (see recital 67).
Za upravičenost do subvencije je bilo treba v vsaki družbi opraviti revizijo.
Subsidies for fish labelling aimed to promote fish traceability and fish quality.
Po končani reviziji se je lahko izdal certifikat.
The subsidy amount was 0,02 TL/pcs for the production up to 250 ton and half of the amount (0,01 TL) for the production between 250 and 500 tons.
Inštitute, ki nadzorujejo izpolnjevanje standardov, je moralo certificirati ministrstvo.
The limit applied per production licence.
Omejitev se je uporabljala za posamezni pravni subjekt.
The limitation of the eligibility criteria provided for in Article 4.16 and explained in recitals 32 to 35 also applied for this type of subsidy.
Sklep
The subsidy for fish labelling could be granted also to producers of other fish species stipulated in the decree such as sea bream and sea bass.
Zdi se, da se je po uvedbi zakonodajne spremembe s členom 4.16 odloka iz leta 2016 zmanjšal obseg proizvodnje postrvi, za katero je mogoče pridobiti neposredne subvencije.
Interested parties did not contest that finding after disclosure.
Vendar je bilo v skladu z informacijami, ki jih je predložila Turčija, in razpoložljivimi informacijami v evidenci težko določiti dejanski učinek zakonodajne spremembe iz leta 2016 z vidika obsega in vrednosti upravičene proizvodnje v primerjavi s sistemom, ki je veljal pred začetkom veljavnosti navedenega odloka, poleg tega pa je bil odvisen od obsega proizvodnje v okviru posameznega dovoljenja.
To be eligible for the subsidy, each company had to undergo an audit.
Od leta 2016 so lahko družbe, ki so imele po starem sistemu več kot eno dovoljenje v isti regiji ali coni, prejele neposredne subvencije le za eno od dovoljenj.
After the audit was completed, a certificate could be issued.
Vendar so druge družbe, ki so proizvodnjo izvajale na kopnem (npr. družba Mittos) ali so delovale v različnih conah ali regijah (npr. skupina Özpekler), prejemale neposredne subvencije, ki so bile enake ali celo višje kot pred letom 2016, ker so imele več kot eno dovoljenje.
The institutes controlling the fulfilment of the standards had to be certified by the Ministry.
Poleg tega se je omejitev iz člena 4.16 odloka iz leta 2016 uporabljala za posamezni pravni subjekt, tako da je bil učinek zakonodajne spremembe na skupino družb odvisen tudi od strukture te skupine.
The deadline for application for companies to be eligible for the production of trout produced in 2017 was 31 March 2018.
Tako je zakonodajna sprememba najbolj vplivala na skupine družb, kot sta GMS in KLC, medtem ko je imela na družbe ali skupine družb, kot so Alima, Mittos in Özpekler, in vse male družbe, ki predstavljajo več ko 65 % družb, le omejen učinek ali pa sploh ni vplivala nanje.
The subsidy amount was set at 0,25 TL/kg up to 250 ton of production.
Komisija je ugotovila še, da se je leta 2017 zvišal dejanski znesek neposrednih subvencij za proizvajalce postrvi (glej uvodno izjavo 40).
The limit applied per legal entity.
Z odlokoma iz let 2016 in 2017 so bile uvedene tudi številne nove subvencije, od katerih lahko imajo koristi proizvajalci postrvi (glej poglavji 4.2.1 in 4.2.2).
Conclusion
Čeprav so torej omejitve, uvedene leta 2016, morda povzročile zmanjšanje subvencioniranja z neposrednimi subvencijami, je Turčija hkrati uvedla nove subvencije in/ali spremenila obstoječe subvencijske ukrepe.
After the legislative change introduced by Article 4.16 of the decree of 2016, the volume of the trout production eligible for direct subsidies appears to have decreased.
Tudi če bi nekemu proizvajalcu neposredne subvencije leta 2016 prinesle manjše koristi, ker so se njegova različna dovoljenja ali enote za ribogojstvo štele za eno, ni nujno, da bi ta sprememba povzročila znižanje splošne ravni subvencioniranja v primerjavi z razmerami pred zakonodajno spremembo leta 2016 (glej uvodne izjave 62 do 65).
However, according to the information provided by Turkey as well as the information available on the record, the actual impact of the legislative change of 2016 in terms of volume and value of the eligible production in comparison with the system in force prior to the entry into force of that decree was difficult to determine, and depended on the production volumes produced under each of the licences.
Zato je Komisija menila, da mora oceniti učinek vseh subvencijskih ukrepov, od katerih so proizvajalci postrvi v Turčiji morda imeli koristi (ali bi jih lahko imeli v prihodnosti), in splošno raven subvencioniranja na nacionalni ravni.
The impact also differed at individual company level depending on the specific situation related to the production of each company.
Zato ni proučila posameznih učinkov spremembe zakonodaje v obdobju preiskave na vsako posamezno vzorčeno družbo, temveč je opravila oceno na globalni ravni, pri tem pa potrdila svoje ugotovitve s sklicevanjem na informacije, ki so jih predložili vzorčeni proizvajalci izvozniki.
As of 2016, companies which had more than one licence in the same region or zone under the old regime could only receive direct subsidies for one of them.
Po razkritju sta Turčija in vložnik trdila, da bi morala Komisija subvencijske stopnje za vzorčene družbe ponovno izračunati za vsako družbo posebej.
However, other companies with inland production (such as Mittos), or operating in different zones or regions (such as the Özpekler group) received direct subsidies at an equal or even higher level than prior to 2016 because they had more than one licence.
Komisija se s tem argumentom ni strinjala.
Therefore, while the groups of companies like GMS Group and KLC Group were the most affected by the legislative change, companies or groups of companies like Alima, Mittos and Özpekler and all the small companies representing more than 65 % of the companies were affected only to a limited extent or not at all.
Poleg tega ta sklep potrjujejo tudi pregled ravni subvencioniranja na nacionalni ravni in ocenjeni zneski subvencij za leto 2018.
Moreover, the Commission observed that in 2017, the actual amount of direct subsidies to trout producers increased (see recital 40).
Razvoj subvencij, dodeljenih za proizvodnjo postrvi, na nacionalni ravni
The decrees of 2016 and 2017 also introduced a number of new subsidies from which trout producers can benefit (see Chapters 4.2.1 and 4.2.2).
Subvencije, dodeljene proizvajalcem postrvi med letoma 2013 in 2016
Therefore, while the limitations introduced in 2016 may have led to a decrease in subsidisation via the direct subsidies, Turkey simultaneously introduced new subsidies and/or amended existing subsidy measures.
Subvencije, dodeljene proizvajalcem postrvi med letoma 2013 in 2016, so znašale, kot sledi.
An important question was thus whether the increased amount of the direct subsidies and the newly introduced subsidies would not compensate for the limitation introduced in the decree of 2016.
Preglednica
Even if one producer received less benefit from the direct subsidies in 2016 because its various licences or fish farming units were considered as one, this change might not necessarily have had the effect of decreasing the overall level of subsidisation compared to situation before the legislative change in 2016 (see recitals 62 to 65).
Vir: informacije, ki jih je predložila Turčija.
Therefore, the Commission considered that it had to assess the impact of all subsidy measures that the trout producers in Turkey might have benefited from (or may benefit from in the future) as well as the overall level of subsidisation at a national scale.
Leto proizvodnje
Hence, it did not examine the specific effects of the change of legislation in the investigation period for each of the sampled companies individually, but it rather made an assessment at a global level, whilst confirming its conclusions by reference to the information provided by the sampled exporting producers.
2013 (obdobje prvotne preiskave)
After disclosure, Turkey and the applicant argued that the Commission should have recalculated subsidy margins for the sampled companies on an individual basis.
Znesek subvencije (v TRL)
The Commission disagreed with the argument.
Indeks
The applicant requested to re-assess the decrease of the level of subsidies to all trout producers in Turkey following the legislative change in 2016.
Obseg proizvodnje (v tonah)
Absent the long lasting change of circumstances at national level, the Commission considered it inappropriate to calculate corresponding individual subsidy amounts.
Med letoma 2013 in 2016 se je skupni znesek subvencij za proizvodnjo postrvi zmanjšal za 37 %.
The changes made did not appear to be sufficient to demonstrate that the amount of subsidisation was altered substantially and was of a lasting nature.
Znesek subvencij med letoma 2015 in 2016 (pred spremembo in po njej) se je zmanjšal za 20,6 %.
Moreover, the examination of the level of subsidisation at national level as well as the estimated subsidy amounts in 2018 confirmed the same conclusion.
Subvencije, ki jih je Turčija dodelila leta 2016
Evolution of the subsidies granted to trout production at national level
Leta 2016 je bil dejanski skupni znesek neposrednih subvencij, dodeljenih proizvajalcem postrvi, 39762389 TRL.
Subsidies granted to trout producers between 2013 and 2016
Subvencije, ki jih je Turčija dodelila leta 2017
Between 2013 and 2016, the amounts of subsidies granted to producers of trout were the following:
Proračun, namenjen neposrednim subvencijam leta 2017, je znašal 52500000 TRL.
Table
V skladu s predhodnimi informacijami, ki jih je Turčija predložila v času preverjanja, naj bi se porabilo 90 % proračuna (47250000 TRL).
Direct subsidies to producers of trout
Poleg tega je bil za nove subvencijske ukrepe, uvedene leta 2017, načrtovan naslednji proračun:
Production year
označevanje rib – 10000000 TRL,
2013 (original investigation period)
dobre kmetijske prakse – 2000000 TRL,
Subsidy amount (TL)
proizvodnja postrvi mase več kot 1 kg – 1875000 TRL.
Index
Proračun za proizvodnjo v zaprtih sistemih, označevanje rib in dobre kmetijske prakse je vključeval tudi subvencije za proizvodnjo drugih vrst rib, kot sta pagar in brancin.
Between 2013 and 2016, the total amount of subsidies to trout production decreased by 37 %.
Na podlagi proračunske napovedi, deleža porabe v višini 90 % in dejstva, da naj bi nekateri ukrepi koristili proizvodnji drugih vrst in ne postrvi, je Komisija najprej ocenila, da bi lahko skupni znesek subvencij za proizvajalce postrvi v letu 2017 lahko presegel 50 milijonov TRL.
The biggest decrease (20 %) in the amount of subsidies occurred between 2013 and 2015, that is to say before the legislative change introduced in the decree of 2016.
Ta ocena je temeljila na informacijah, ki jih je predložila Turčija in v skladu s katerimi naj bi se za neposredne subvencije porabilo 90 % proračuna.
The decrease between those years was in line with the decrease in production of trout (17 %) in the same period.
Komisija je enak delež porabe proračunskih sredstev uporabila tudi za oceno zneskov dodatnih subvencijskih ukrepov, uvedenih leta 2017 (glej uvodno izjavo 61).
The decrease in the amount of subsidies between 2015 and 2016 (before and after the change) was of 20,6 %.
Poleg tega je za proračunske vrstice, ki vključujejo druge upravičene vrst rib (tj. subvencije za proizvodnjo v zaprtih sistemih, proizvodnjo postrvi mase več kot 1 kg, označevanje rib in dobre kmetijske prakse), uporabila delež 41,2 %, ki zajema proizvodnjo postrvi v okviru upravičene proizvodnje rib.
Subsidies granted by Turkey in 2016
Po razkritju sta Turčija in vložnik trdila, da leta 2017 noben turški proizvajalec postrvi ni imel koristi niti od subvencij za proizvodnjo v zaprtih sistemih niti od subvencij za označevanje rib, in sicer predvsem zaradi začetnih naložbenih stroškov in nepraktičnosti ukrepov.
In 2016, the total actual amounts of direct subsidies granted to trout producers amounted to 39762389 TL.
Največja korist za dobre kmetijske prakse v letu 2017 bi lahko znašala le 592250 TRL, porabljenih pa ni bilo 90 % načrtovanega proračuna, kot so prvotno ocenili turški organi, temveč 83 %.
Subsidies granted by the Turkey in 2017
Poleg tega je Turčija trdila, da shema subvencij za postrvi mase več kot 1 kg ne bi smela biti vključena v izračun koristi za proizvajalce postrvi.
The implementation of all of the subsidy measures of which the trout producers could benefit in 2017 was not yet finalised at the time of the verification.
Glede na njene izračune, predstavljene na zaslišanju, bi znesek subvencij za proizvodnjo zadevnega izdelka v letu 2017 v tem primeru znašal približno 43 milijonov TRL.
Therefore, the Commission based its preliminary findings on the budget for 2017 forecast for each of the measures at a global level.
Vendar je Komisija ugotovila, da lahko ta shema koristi trem različnim vrstam postrvi, in sicer (1) postrvim mase med 1 kg in 1,2 kg, (2) postrvim mase več kot 1,2 kg, ki se lahko po predelavi oblikujejo v zadevni izdelek, ter (3) postrvim mase več kot 1,2 kg, ki se prodajajo na drugem trgu kot zadevni izdelek.
The budget dedicated for direct subsidies in 2017 amounted to 52500000 TL.
Ob odsotnosti natančnih podatkov o razporeditvi proračuna za subvencijo Komisija ni mogla izračunati natančnega zneska za vsako vrsto.
According to the preliminary information provided by Turkey at the time of the verification, 90 % of the budget was to be spent (47250000 TL).
V vsakem primeru pa se tudi ob predpostavki, da je bilo 100 % subvencije namenjenih le tretji vrsti in da subvencija torej ni vplivala na zadevni izdelek, splošna ugotovitev ne bi spremenila.
In addition, the following budget was planned for the new subsidy measures introduced in 2017:
Subvencije za proizvajalce postrvi so med obdobjem prvotne preiskave (2013) in letom 2016 zmanjšale za 37 %.
Closed system production – 500000 TL
Vendar zmanjšanje zneskov subvencije od leta 2013 ni bilo povezano le z zakonodajno spremembo leta 2016, temveč je bilo tudi posledica splošnega zmanjšanja proizvodnje postrvi (glej preglednico v uvodni izjavi 54).
Fish labelling – 10000000 TL
Po letu 2016 se je raven subvencij za proizvajalce postrvi znova zvišala.
Good farming practices – 2000000 TL
Leta 2017 je skupni znesek subvencij za proizvajalce postrvi znašal med 43 in 48,5 milijona TRL.
The budget for closed system production, fish labelling and good farming principles included also subsidies for production of other species such as sea bream and sea bass.
Komisija je zato sklenila, da je bilo zmanjšanje obstoječih subvencij po zakonodajni spremembi leta 2016 začasno in da sta se od leta 2016 tako skupni znesek subvencij kot tudi raven podpore proizvodnji na tono povečala.
Based on the statistics provided by Turkey regarding total aquaculture production volume of 2016, the production of trout within the eligible fish production represented 41,2 %.
Trajnost sprememb
Based on the forecast budget, the spending ratio of 90 % and the fact that some of the measures were to benefit production of species other than trout, the Commission first estimated that the overall amount of subsidies to trout producers in 2017 could overpass 50 million TL.
Na podlagi sklepov v poglavju 4.3.4 je Komisija vztrajala pri tem, da je bilo zmanjšanje subvencioniranja za proizvajalce postrvi leta 2016 le začasno.
