The Authority will therefore streamline the conduct of formal investigations through efficient use of all the procedural means available to it under Part II of Protocol 3.
Nadzorni organ bo zato poenostavil izvajanje formalnih postopkov preiskave z učinkovito uporabo vseh postopkovnih sredstev, s katerimi razpolaga v skladu z delom II Protokola 3.
Publication of the decision and meaningful summary
Objava odločitve in ustreznega povzetka
Where the EFTA State concerned does not request the removal of confidential information, the Authority will endeavour to publish its decision to open the formal investigation procedure, including the meaningful summaries, within 2 months from the date of adoption of that decision.
Če zadevna država Efte ne zahteva odstranitve zaupnih informacij, si bo Nadzorni organ svojo odločitev o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave vključno z ustreznimi povzetki prizadeval objaviti v dveh mesecih po sprejetju zadevne odločitve.
Where there is disagreement concerning confidentiality issues, the Authority will apply the principles of its Guidelines on professional secrecy in State aid decisions [10] and use its best endeavours to proceed with publication of the decision within the shortest possible time frame following its adoption.
V primeru nesoglasij glede zaupnosti Nadzorni organ uporabi načela iz svojih smernic o poklicni skrivnosti v odločbah o državni pomoči [10] in si po najboljših močeh prizadeva objaviti odločitev kar najhitreje po njenem sprejetju.
The same will apply to the publication of all final decisions.
Enako bo veljalo za objavo vseh končnih odločitev.
To improve the transparency of the procedure, the EFTA State, the beneficiary and other stakeholders (in particular potential complainants) will be informed of all delays triggered by disagreements concerning confidentiality issues.
Za izboljšanje preglednosti postopka bodo država Efte, upravičenec ter druge udeležene strani (zlasti morebitni pritožniki) obveščeni o vseh morebitnih zamudah, ki bi jih povzročila nesoglasja glede zaupnosti.
According to Article 6 of Part II of Protocol 3, interested parties must submit comments within a prescribed period which must normally not exceed 1 month following the publication of the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure.
Zainteresirane stranke morajo v skladu s členom 6 dela II Protokola 3 oddati pripombe v predpisanem roku, ki navadno ni daljši od enega meseca po objavi odločitve o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave.
That time limit will not normally be extended, and the Authority will thus usually not accept any belated submission of information from interested parties, including the beneficiary of the aid [11].
Navedeni rok načeloma ne bo podaljšan, Nadzorni organ pa zato običajno ne bo sprejel zapoznele oddaje informacij s strani zainteresiranih strank, vključno z upravičencem do pomoči [11].
Extensions may be granted only in exceptional duly justified cases, such as the provision of particularly voluminous factual information or following contact between the Authority and the interested party concerned.
Izjeme se lahko odobrijo samo v upravičenih primerih, na primer ob oddaji posebej obsežnih dejanskih informacij oziroma po stiku med Nadzornim organom in zadevno zainteresirano stranko.
In order to improve the factual basis of the investigation of particularly complex cases, the Authority may send a copy of the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure to identified interested parties including trade or business associations, and invite them to comment on specific aspects of the case [12].
Nadzorni organ lahko za izboljšanje dejanske podlage preiskave v posebej zapletenih zadevah kopijo odločitve o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave pošlje ugotovljenim zainteresiranim strankam, vključno s trgovinskimi ali poslovnimi združenji, in jih pozove k oddaji pripomb o določenih vidikih zadeve [12].
Interested parties’ cooperation in this context is purely voluntary, but if an interested party chooses to provide comments, it is in its interest to submit those comments in a timely manner so that the Authority will be able to take them into account.
Sodelovanje zainteresiranih strank je v tem okviru popolnoma prostovoljno, če pa se odločijo za oddajo pripomb, je v njihovem interesu, da te pripombe predložijo pravočasno, tako da jih bo Nadzorni organ lahko upošteval.
Therefore, the Authority will invite interested parties to react within 1 month from the date on which the copy of the decision is sent to them.
Zato bo Nadzorni organ zainteresirane stranke pozval, naj to storijo v enem mesecu od datuma, ko jim je poslana kopija odločitve.
The Authority will not wait any further for those comments to be submitted.
Nadzorni organ na predložitev pripomb ne bo čakal dlje.
In order to ensure equal treatment between interested parties the Authority will send the same invitation to comment to the aid beneficiary.
Zaradi spoštovanja enake obravnave zainteresiranih strank bo Nadzorni organ upravičencem do pomoči poslal enako vabilo k predložitvi pripomb.
In order to respect the EFTA State’s right of defence, it will forward to the EFTA State a non-confidential version of any comments received from interested parties and invite the EFTA State to reply within 1 month.
Zaradi spoštovanja pravice do obrambe bo državi Efte posredoval nezaupno različico vseh pripomb, prejetih od zainteresiranih strank, in jo pozval, naj odgovori v enem mesecu.
In order to ensure transmission of all comments from interested parties to the EFTA State concerned in the most expedient manner, EFTA States will, as far as possible, be invited to accept transmission of those comments in their original language.
Da bi zagotovili čim hitrejše posredovanje vseh pripomb zainteresiranih strank zadevni državi Efte, bodo države Efte, če je le mogoče, pozvane, naj pripombe zainteresiranih strank sprejmejo v svojem izvirnem jeziku.
If an EFTA State so requests, the Authority will provide a translation, which may have implications as regards the expediency of procedures.
Nadzorni organ bo na zahtevo države Efte zagotovil prevod, kar bo morebiti vplivalo na hitrost postopkov.
EFTA States will also be informed of the absence of any comments from interested parties.
Države Efte bodo obveščene tudi, če zainteresirane stranke ne bodo oddale pripomb.
EFTA States’ comments
Pripombe držav Efte
To ensure timely completion of the formal investigation procedure, the Authority will rigorously enforce all time limits applicable to this phase under Part II of Protocol 3.
Nadzorni organ bo zaradi zagotovitve pravočasnega zaključka formalnega postopka preiskave dosledno uveljavljal vse veljavne roke v tej fazi v skladu z delom II Protokola 3.
If an EFTA State fails to submit its comments on the Authority’s decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure and on interested parties’ comments within the one-month time limit set in Article 6(1) of Part II of Protocol 3, the Authority will immediately send a reminder granting the EFTA State concerned an additional period of 1 month and informing the EFTA State that no further extension will be granted, save in exceptional circumstances.
Če država Efte ne bo oddala svojih pripomb na odločitev Nadzornega organa o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave in o pripombah zainteresiranih strank v enomesečnem roku, ki ga določa člen 6(1) dela II Protokola 3, bo Nadzorni organ zadevni državi Efte takoj poslal opomin, s katerim bo rok podaljšal za dodaten mesec in državo Efte obvestil, da nadaljnje podaljševanje roka, razen v izjemnih okoliščinah, ne bo mogoče.
In the absence of a meaningful reply by the EFTA State concerned, the Authority will take a decision on the basis of the information available to it, in accordance with Articles 7(7) and Article 13(1) of Part II of Protocol 3.
Če zadevna država Efte ne bo smiselno odgovorila, bo Nadzorni organ v skladu s členom 7(7) in členom 13(1) dela II Protokola 3 odločitev sprejel na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij.
In the case of unlawful aid, and in the absence of comments from the EFTA State on the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure, the Authority will, pursuant to Article 10 of Part II of Protocol 3, issue an information injunction.
Če je pomoč nezakonita in če država Efte ne predloži pripomb na odločitev o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave, bo Nadzorni organ v skladu s členom 10 dela II Protokola 3 izdal odredbo o predložitvi podatkov.
Should the EFTA State fail to reply to that injunction within the time limit set therein, the Authority will take a decision on the basis of the information available to it.
Če država Efte na odredbo ne odgovori v roku, ki je v njej določen, bo Nadzorni organ odločitev sprejel na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij.
It cannot be excluded that, in particularly complex cases, the information submitted by the EFTA State in response to the decision to initiate the formal investigation procedure may require the Authority to send a further request for information.
Pri še posebej zapletenih zadevah ni izključeno, da mora glede na informacije, ki jih država Efte predloži v odgovor na odločitev o začetku formalnega postopka preiskave, Nadzorni organ poslati zahtevo po dodatnih informacijah.
A time limit of 1 month will be set for the EFTA State to reply.
Država Efte bo morala odgovoriti v enem mesecu.
Should the EFTA State not reply within the time limit, the Authority will immediately send a reminder setting a final deadline of 15 working days and informing the EFTA State concerned that the Authority will thereafter take a decision on the basis of the information available to it, or issue an information injunction in the case of unlawful aid.
Če država Efte ne bo odgovorila v roku, bo Nadzorni organ takoj poslal opomin, v katerem bo določil končni rok 15 delovnih dni in zadevno državo Efte obvestil, da bo po navedenem roku odločitev sprejel na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij, v primeru nezakonitosti pomoči pa izdal odredbo o predložitvi podatkov.
Justified suspension of the formal investigation
Upravičen odlog formalne preiskave
Only in exceptional circumstances and by common agreement between the Authority and the EFTA State concerned may the formal investigation be suspended.
Formalni postopek preiskave se lahko odloži samo v izjemnih okoliščinah in v soglasju med Nadzornim organom in zadevno državo Efte.
Suspension could, for example, occur if the EFTA State formally requests a suspension in order to bring its project in line with State aid rules, or if there is pending litigation before the EFTA Court or the EU Courts regarding similar issues, the outcome of which is likely to have an impact on the assessment of the case.
Odlog je na primer možen, če država Efte zanj uradno zaprosi zato, da bi svoj projekt uskladila s pravili o državni pomoči, ter v primeru nerešenih sporov na sodišču Efte ali sodiščih EU v zvezi s podobnimi zadevami, če bo njihov izid verjetno vplival na oceno zadeve.
Suspension will normally only be granted once, and for a period agreed in advance between the Authority and the EFTA State concerned.
Odlog se bo ponavadi odobril samo enkrat, in sicer za obdobje, o katerem se Nadzorni organ in zadevna država Efte vnaprej dogovorita.
Adoption of the final decision and justified extension of the formal investigation
Sprejetje končne odločitve in upravičeno podaljšanje formalne preiskave
In accordance with Article 7(6) of Part II of Protocol 3, the Authority will as far as possible endeavour to adopt a decision within a period of 18 months from the opening of the procedure.
Nadzorni organ si bo v skladu s členom 7(6) dela II Protokola 3 kar najbolj prizadeval odločitev sprejeti v 18 mesecih od začetka postopka.
That time limit may be extended by common agreement between the Authority and the EFTA State concerned.
Ta rok je mogoče podaljšati s soglasjem med Nadzornim organom in zadevno državo Efte.
An extension of the duration of the investigation may in particular be appropriate in cases concerning novel projects or raising novel legal issues.
Preiskavo je primerno podaljšati zlasti v zadevah, ki se nanašajo na neobičajne projekte ali odpirajo nova pravna vprašanja.
In order to ensure effective implementation of Article 7(6) of Part II of Protocol 3, the Authority will endeavour to adopt the final decision no later than 4 months after the submission of the last information by the EFTA State, or the expiry of the last time limit without information having been received.
Nadzorni organ si bo za zagotovitev učinkovitega izvajanja člena 7(6) dela II Protokola 3 prizadeval sprejeti končno odločitev najpozneje v 4 mesecih po tem, ko bo država Efte predložila zadnje informacije, oziroma po poteku zadnjega roka, če teh informacij ne bo prejel.
The efficient and transparent handling by the Authority of complaints brought before it is of considerable importance to all stakeholders in State aid procedures.
Učinkovita in pregledna obravnava vloženih pritožb s strani Nadzornega organa je za vse udeležene strani v postopkih v zvezi z državno pomočjo precejšnjega pomena.
The Authority therefore proposes the following best practices, designed to contribute to that joint objective.
Nadzorni organ zato predlaga naslednje najboljše prakse, ki naj prispevajo k temu skupnemu cilju.
The complaint form
Obrazec za pritožbo
The Authority will systematically invite complainants to use the complaint form available on its website (http://www.eftasurv.int/media/documents/Complaint-form—State-aid.doc) and, at the same time, to submit a non-confidential version of the complaint.
Nadzorni organ bo pritožnike sistematično pozival, naj uporabijo obrazec za pritožbo, ki je na voljo na njegovi spletni strani (http://www.eftasurv.int/media/documents/Complaint-form—State-aid.doc), hkrati pa predložijo nezaupno različico pritožbe.
The submission of complete forms will normally allow complainants to enhance the quality of their submissions.
Predložitev popolnih obrazcev bo pritožnikom ponavadi omogočila izboljšati kakovost svojih vlog.
Indicative time frame and outcome of the investigation of a complaint
Okvirni rok in izid preiskave pritožbe
The Authority will use its best endeavours to investigate a complaint within an indicative time frame of 12 months from its receipt.
Nadzorni organ si bo kar najbolj prizadeval pritožbo obravnavati v okvirnem roku dvanajstih mesecev od njenega prejema.
That time limit does not constitute a binding commitment.
Navedeni rok ni zavezujoča obveznost.
Depending on the circumstances of the individual case, the possible need to request complementary information from the complainant, the EFTA State or interested parties may extend the investigation of a complaint.
Preiskava pritožbe se lahko odvisno od okoliščin posamezne zadeve podaljša, zlasti če je treba od pritožnika, države Efte ali zainteresiranih strank zahtevati dopolnilne informacije.
The Authority is entitled to give different degrees of priority to the complaints brought before it [13], depending for instance on the scope of the alleged infringement, the size of the beneficiary, the economic sector concerned or the existence of similar complaints.
Nadzorni organ lahko zadevam, ki so mu predložene [13], pripiše različne stopnje prednosti, odvisne od na primer obsega domnevne kršitve, velikosti upravičenca, zadevnega gospodarskega sektorja ali obstoja podobnih pritožb.
In the light of its workload and its right to set the priorities for investigations [14], it can thus postpone dealing with a measure which is not a priority.
Glede na svojo delovno obremenitev in pravico do dodeljevanja prednosti preiskavam [14] lahko tako odloži obravnavo ukrepa, ki ni prednosten.
Within 12 months, the Authority will, therefore, in principle, endeavour to:
Nadzorni organ si bo zato načeloma prizadeval v dvanajstih mesecih:
adopt a decision for priority cases pursuant to Article 4 of Part II of Protocol 3, with a copy addressed to the complainant;
sprejeti odločitev o prednostnih zadevah v skladu s členom 4 dela II Protokola 3 in kopijo nasloviti na pritožnika;
send an initial administrative letter to the complainant setting out its preliminary views on non-priority cases.
pritožniku poslati začeten upravni dopis, v katerem bo opredelil svoje predhodno mnenje o neprednostnih zadevah.
The administrative letter is not an official position of the Authority, it only represents a preliminary view, based on the information available and pending any additional comments the complainant might wish to make within 1 month from the date of the letter.
Upravni dopis ni uradno stališče Nadzornega organa, ampak le predhodno mnenje na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij do prejema morebitnih dodatnih pripomb, ki bi jih pritožnik želel dati v enem mesecu od datuma dopisa.
If further comments are not provided within the prescribed period, the complaint will be deemed to be withdrawn.
Če dodatne pripombe v predpisanem roku ne bodo predložene, se bo pritožba štela za umaknjeno.
As a matter of transparency, the Authority will use its best endeavours to inform the complainant of the priority status of its submission, within 2 months from the date of receipt of the complaint.
Nadzorni organ si bo zaradi preglednosti po svojih najboljših močeh prizadeval, da v dveh mesecih od prejema pritožbe obvesti pritožnika o prednostnem statusu njegove pritožbe.
In the case of unsubstantiated complaints, the Authority will inform the complainant within 2 months from receipt of the complaint that there are insufficient grounds for taking a view on the case, and that the complaint will be deemed to be withdrawn if further substantive comments are not provided within 1 month.
V primeru neutemeljenih pritožb bo Nadzorni organ pritožnika v dveh mesecih od prejema pritožbe obvestil, da za obravnavo zadeve ni zadostnih razlogov in da se bo pritožba štela za umaknjeno, če v enem mesecu ne bo dodatnih vsebinskih pripomb.
As regards complaints which refer to approved aid, the Authority will also endeavour to reply to the complainant within 2 months from receipt of the complaint.
V zvezi s pritožbami, ki se nanašajo na odobreno pomoč, si bo Nadzorni organ pritožniku prav tako prizadeval odgovoriti v dveh mesecih od prejema pritožbe.
In the case of unlawful aid, complainants will be reminded of the possibility to initiate proceedings before national courts, which can order the suspension or recovery of such aid [15].
V primeru nezakonite pomoči bodo pritožniki opomnjeni, da imajo možnost sprožiti postopek na nacionalnih sodiščih, ki lahko odredijo prekinitev ali izterjavo takšne pomoči [15].
When necessary, the non-confidential version of a complaint will be transmitted to the EFTA State concerned for comments.
Po potrebi bo nezaupna različica pritožbe poslana zadevni državi Efte, ki bo pozvana, naj odda svoje pripombe.
EFTA States and the complainants will systematically be kept informed of the closure or other processing of a complaint.
Države Efte in pritožniki bodo sistematično obveščani o zaključku ali drugačni obravnavi pritožbe.
In return, EFTA States will be invited to respect the time limits for commenting and providing information on complaints transmitted to them.
V zameno bodo države Efte pozvane, naj spoštujejo roke za oddajo pripomb in informacij o pritožbah, ki jim bodo posredovane.
They will also be invited to accept, as far as possible, transmission of complaints in their original language.
Pozvane bodo tudi, naj, če je le mogoče, sprejmejo prenos pritožb v svojem izvirnem jeziku.
Internal decision-making procedures
Notranji postopki odločanja
The Authority is committed to streamlining and further improving its internal decision-making process, in order to contribute to an overall shortening of State aid procedures.
Nadzorni organ se zavezuje, da bo svoj notranji postopek odločanja poenostavil in nadalje izboljšal ter tako prispeval k skupnemu skrajšanju postopkov v zvezi z državno pomočjo.
To this effect, internal decision-making procedures will be applied as efficiently as possible.
Zato se bodo notranji postopki odločanja izvajali kar najbolj učinkovito.
The Authority will also review its current internal legal framework to optimise its decision-making procedures.
Nadzorni organ bo poleg tega pregledal svoj trenutni pravni okvir ter tako optimiziral svoje postopke odločanja.
The Authority will keep its internal decision-making practice under constant review and adapt it if necessary.
Nadzorni organ bo stalno pregledoval svoje notranje prakse odločanja in jih po potrebi prilagajal.
Future review
Prihodnji pregled
Procedural best practices can only be effective if they are based on a shared commitment by the Authority and EFTA States to diligently pursue State aid investigations, respect applicable time limits and thereby ensure the necessary transparency and predictability of procedures.
Postopkovne najboljše prakse so lahko učinkovite samo, če temeljijo na skupni zavezi Nadzornega organa in držav Efte, da bodo vestno izvajali preiskave državnih pomoči, spoštovali veljavne roke ter tako zagotovili potrebno preglednost in predvidljivost postopkov.
This Chapter and the best practices enshrined therein are a first contribution to this joint commitment.
To poglavje in v njem zapisane najboljše prakse so prvi prispevek k tej skupni zavezi.
The Authority will apply this Chapter to measures which have been notified to the Authority or otherwise brought to the Authority's attention as from 1 January 2010.
Nadzorni organ bo to poglavje začel uporabljati od 1. januarja 2010 za ukrepe, ki so mu bili priglašeni, ali ukrepe, na katere je bil drugače opozorjen.
This Chapter may be revised to reflect changes to legislative, interpretative and administrative measures or the case-law of the EFTA Court and the Courts of Justice of the European Union, which govern State aid procedure or any experience gained in its application.
To poglavje se lahko spremeni, tako da odraža spremembe zakonodajnih, razlagalnih in upravnih ukrepov ali sodno prakso Sodišča Efte in Sodišča Evropske unije, ki urejajo postopek v zvezi z državno pomočjo, ter morebitne izkušnje, pridobljene med njegovo uporabo.
The Authority further intends to engage, on a regular basis, in a dialogue with the EFTA States and other stakeholders on the experience gained in the application of Part II of Protocol 3 in general, and this Chapter of best practice in particular.
Nadzorni organ namerava poleg tega redno vzpostavljati dialog z državami Efte in drugimi zainteresiranimi strankami o izkušnjah, pridobljenih pri splošnem izvajanju dela II Protokola 3 in zlasti tega poglavja najboljših praks.
This Chapter corresponds to the Commission Code of Best Practice for the conduct of State aid control procedures (OJ C 136, 16.6.2009, p. 13).
