Moreover, whenever EFTA States opt for a management model whereby the subsidised broadband infrastructure offers only wholesale access services to third parties, not retail services, the likely distortions of competition are further reduced as such a network management model helps to avoid potentially complex issues of predatory pricing and hidden forms of access discrimination.
Poleg tega se v primeru, ko države Efte izberejo model upravljanja, na podlagi katerega subvencionirana širokopasovna infrastruktura tretjim osebam zagotavlja le grosistične storitve dostopa in ne maloprodajnih storitev, verjetno izkrivljanje konkurence dodatno zmanjša, ker tak model upravljanja omrežja prispeva k preprečevanju potencialno zapletenih položajev, ko se pojavljajo oblikovanje oderuških cen in prikriti načini diskriminacije pri dostopu.
In this regard, the NRA should take into consideration the possible persistence of the specific conditions that justified in the first place the granting of an aid to the operator of the infrastructure in question.
Pri tem bi moral nacionalni regulativni organ upoštevati morebitni obstoj posebnih pogojev, ki so že v začetku upravičili dodelitev pomoči zadevnemu operaterju infrastrukture.
In exceptional circumstances duly demonstrated by the notifying EFTA State, setting up such mechanism for very low aid amounts or small scale, ‘one-off’ projects based on simple procurement principles may impose a disproportionate burden on the granting authorities and will not therefore be required by the Authority.
V izjemnih okoliščinah, ki jih je ustrezno opisala država Efte, ki je priglasila ukrep, bi lahko vzpostavitev takega mehanizma za zelo nizke zneske pomoči ali neobsežne, „enkratne“ projekte na podlagi preprostih načel naročanja nesorazmerno obremenila organe, ki dodeljujejo pomoč, zato je Nadzorni organ ne bo zahteval.
At this stage of technological and market development, neither satellite nor mobile network technologies appear to be capable of providing very high speed symmetrical broadband services although in the future the situation may change especially with regard to mobile services (the next major step in mobile radio communications, ‘Long Term Evolution’ may theoretically reach, if and when adopted, increased peak data rates of 100 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink).
Na tej stopnji tehnološkega in tržnega razvoja se zdi, da niti tehnologija satelitskih omrežij niti tehnologija mobilnih omrežij ne moreta zagotoviti zelo hitrih simetričnih širokopasovnih storitev, čeprav se lahko v prihodnosti položaj spremeni, zlasti na področju mobilnih storitev (naslednji pomemben korak v mobilnih radijskih komunikacijah, tj. tehnologija Long Term Evolution, lahko ob morebitni uvedbi teoretično doseže najvišje stopnje prenosa podatkov 100 Mbps za navzdolnjo povezavo in 50 Mbps za navzgornjo povezavo).
See Commission Decision N 157/06 — United Kingdom, ‘South Yorkshire Digital region Broadband Project’ and Commission Decision N 284/05 — Ireland, ‘Regional Broadband Programme: Metropolitan Area Networks (“MANs”), phases II and III ’.
Glej Odločbo Komisije N 157/06 – Združeno kraljestvo, Projekt za širokopasovni dostop „Digital Region“ v južnem Yorkshiru, in Odločbo Komisije N 284/05 – Irska, Regionalni širokopasovni program: fazi II in III programa Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN).
Only in two cases so-far (Appingedam and Amsterdam) was state support granted for the roll-out of an ‘access’ next generation network that would bring fibre connectivity to the residential segment of the market.
Do zdaj se je državna pomoč le v dveh primerih (Appingedam in Amsterdam) dodelila za razvoj „dostopovnih“ omrežij naslednje generacije, ki bi zagotovila optično povezljivost za rezidenčni segment trga.
Broadband network operators have argued that rolling out of a fibre-based network is still a very expensive and risky investment, save in areas of dense population/business where operators have already a substantial base of broadband customers that can be migrated to higher speeds.
Operaterji širokopasovnih omrežij trdijo, da je razvoj optičnega omrežja še vedno zelo draga in tvegana naložba, razen na območjih z visoko gostoto prebivalstva/podjetij, kjer imajo operaterji že precejšnjo bazo uporabnikov širokopasovnih storitev, ki jih lahko preusmerijo na višje hitrosti.
In certain cases, the cost of deploying NGAs and fibre networks are said to be too high relative to the revenue that can be expected so that either no or too few private sector providers would enter the market.
Stroški razvoja omrežij NGA in optičnih omrežij naj bi bili v nekaterih primerih previsoki glede na prihodek, ki se lahko pričakuje, tako da ne bi na trg vstopil noben ponudnik iz zasebnega sektorja ali pa bi bilo teh ponudnikov premalo.
Such measures should not target specifically electronic communications operators but should apply without distinction to all operators across all sectors concerned (including for instance other utility operators such as gas, electricity and/or water undertakings).
Taki ukrepi ne smejo biti posebej usmerjeni k operaterjem elektronskih komunikacijskih omrežij, ampak jih je treba brez razlikovanja uporabiti za vse operaterje v vseh zadevnih sektorjih (na primer, vključno z operaterji, ki opravljajo druge javne službe, kot so podjetja za oskrbo s plinom, električno energijo in/ali vodo).
Measures that would apply to electronic communications operators only could constitute a sectoral aid and thus fall within the prohibition of Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement.
Ukrepi, ki bi veljali le za operaterje elektronskih komunikacijskih omrežij, bi lahko pomenili sektorsko pomoč in bi tako spadali v področje uporabe prepovedi iz člena 61(1) Sporazuma EGP.
See for instance, Commission Decision N 157/06 — United Kingdom, ‘South Yorkshire Digital Region Broadband Project’, Commission Decision N 201/06 — Greece, ‘Broadband access development in underserved territories’, and Commission Decision N 131/05 — United Kingdom, ‘FibreSpeed Broadband Project Wales’, Commission Decision N 284/05 — Ireland, 'Regional Broadband Programme: Metropolitan Area Networks (“MANs”), phases II and III ’, Commission Decision N 381/04 — France, Projet de réseau de télécommunications haut débit des Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Commission Decision N 382/05 — France, Mise en place d'une infrastructure haut débit sur le territoire de la région Limousin (DORSAL), Commission Decision N 57/05 — United Kingdom, ‘Regional Innovative Broadband Support in Wales’, and Commission Decision N 14/08 — United Kingdom, ‘Broadband in Scotland — Extending Broadband Reach’.
Glej na primer Odločbo Komisije N 157/06 – Združeno kraljestvo, Projekt na področju širokopasovnih povezav „Digital Region“ v južnem Yorkshiru, Odločbo Komisije N 201/06 – Grčija, Razvoj dostopa do širokopasovnega omrežja na manj pokritih območjih, in Odločbo Komisije N 131/05 – Združeno kraljestvo, Projekt na področju širokopasovnih povezav „FibreSpeed“ v Walesu, Odločbo Komisije N 284/05 – Irska, Regionalni program na področju širokopasovnih povezav: fazi II in III programa Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN), Odločbo Komisije N 381/04 – Francija, Projekt hitrega telekomunikacijskega omrežja v Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Odločbo Komisije N 382/05 – Francija, Vzpostavitev hitre infrastrukture v regiji Limousin (DORSAL), Odločbo Komisije N 57/05 – Združeno kraljestvo, Pomoč za regionalne inovativne širokopasovne storitve v Walesu, in Odločbo Komisije N 14/08 – Združeno kraljestvo, Širokopasovni dostop na Škotskem – Širitev širokopasovne pokritosti.
This is without prejudice to the possible application of the Chapter on national regional aid, as referred to above in paragraph 31.
To ne posega v morebitno uporabo poglavja o nacionalni regionalni pomoči, kakor je navedeno v odstavku 31 zgoraj.
If today the differences between an area where only narrowband Internet is available (dial-up) and an area where broadband exists means that the former is a white area, likewise an area that lacks a next generation broadband infrastructure, but may still have one basic broadband infrastructure in place should also be considered a white area.
Če danes razlika med območjem, kjer je na voljo le ozkopasovni internet (klicna povezava), in območjem, kjer je na voljo širokopasovni dostop, pomeni, da je prvo območje bela lisa, je treba kot belo liso obravnavati tudi območje, kjer ni širokopasovne infrastrukture naslednje generacije, čeprav je na voljo osnovna širokopasovna infrastruktura.
ADSL 2+ extends the capability of basic ADSL network up to a maximum bandwidth of 24 Mbps.
ADSL 2 + razširja zmogljivosti osnovnega omrežja ADSL do največje pasovne širine 24 Mbps.
A white NGA area may consist in an area where there is no basic broadband infrastructure in place (traditional white areas), as well as in an area where only one basic broadband provider is present (i.e. a traditional grey area) or there are several basic broadband providers (i.e. a traditional black area).
Bela lisa NGA je območje, kjer ni nobene osnovne širokopasovne infrastrukture (tj. tradicionalne bele lise), in tudi območje, kjer deluje samo en ponudnik osnovnega širokopasovnega dostopa (tj. tradicionalne sive lise) ali več ponudnikov osnovnega širokopasovnega dostopa (tj. tradicionalne črne lise).
As indicated in Section 3.4, different conditions are required for the compatibility of state aid for broadband development in these different circumstances.
Kot je navedeno v oddelku 3.4, se v teh različnih okoliščinah za združljivost državne pomoči za razvoj širokopasovnega dostopa zahtevajo različni pogoji.
This period appears to correspond to an average period needed for the deployment of a next generation access network covering a town or a city.
Zdi se, da to obdobje ustreza povprečnemu obdobju, potrebnemu za razvoj dostopovnega omrežja naslednje generacije, ki pokriva nek kraj ali mesto.
In this regard, an operator should be able to demonstrate that within a coming period of 3 years it would have carried out the necessary infrastructure investments in order to have covered by then a substantial part of the territory and of the population concerned thereby.
Operater mora biti torej sposoben dokazati, da bo v prihajajočem obdobju treh let izvedel potrebne naložbe v infrastrukturo, da bi v tem času pokril znaten del ozemlja ali zadevnega prebivalstva.
A grey NGA area may consist in an area where (a) there is no other basic broadband infrastructure beside the NGA; (b) as well as in an area where one or more basic broadband providers are also present (which can be considered as a traditional grey or black area).
Siva lisa NGA je območje, kjer (a) poleg NGA ni nobene druge osnovne širokopasovne infrastrukture in (b) kjer deluje en ali več ponudnikov osnovnega širokopasovnega dostopa (mogoče ga je obravnavati kot tradicionalno sivo ali črno liso).
A black NGA area may also consist of an area with one broadband provider (traditional grey area) or more (traditional black area) present.
Črna lisa NGA je lahko tudi območje, kjer deluje en (tradicionalna siva lisa) ali več (tradicionalna črna lisa) ponudnikov širokopasovnega dostopa.
As indicated below, different conditions are required for the compatibility of state aid for broadband development in these different circumstances.
Kot je navedeno v nadaljevanju, se v teh različnih okoliščinah za združljivost državne pomoči za razvoj širokopasovnega dostopa zahtevajo različni pogoji.
In this regard, the possible persistence of the specific market conditions that justified in the first place the granting of an aid for the infrastructure in question should be taken into consideration.
Pri tem bi bilo treba upoštevati morebitni obstoj posebnih tržnih pogojev, ki so že v začetku upravičili dodelitev pomoči zadevni infrastrukturi.
Is the aid measure aimed at a well-defined objective of common interest, i.e. does the proposed aid address a market failure or other objective? [41]
Ali je ukrep pomoči usmerjen v natančno opredeljen cilj skupnega interesa, tj. ali predlagana pomoč zadeva tržne nepopolnosti ali drug cilj [41]?
According to Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement, ‘any aid granted by EC Member States, EFTA States or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain goods shall, in so far as it affects trade between Contracting Parties, be incompatible with the functioning of this Agreement’. It follows that in order for a measure to qualify as State aid, the following cumulative conditions have to be met:
V členu 61(1) Sporazuma EGP je navedeno, da je: „vsaka pomoč, ki jo dodelijo države članice ES, države Efte ali je dodeljena v kakršni koli obliki iz državnih sredstev, ki izkrivlja ali bi lahko izkrivljala konkurenco z dajanjem prednosti posameznim podjetjem ali proizvodnji posameznega blaga, nezdružljiva z delovanjem tega sporazuma, kolikor škodi trgovini med pogodbenicami.“ Na podlagi tega se ukrep obravnava kot državna pomoč, če izpolnjuje naslednje kumulativne pogoje:

APPLICATION OF STATE AID RULES TO PUBLIC SERVICE BROADCASTING [1]1.
UPORABA PRAVIL O DRŽAVNI POMOČI ZA JAVNO RADIODIFUZIJO [1]1.
Introduction and scope
Uvod in področje uporabe
Over the last three decades, broadcasting has undergone important changes.
V zadnjih treh desetletjih je prišlo v radiodifuziji do pomembnih sprememb.
The abolition of monopolies, the emergence of new players and rapid technological developments have fundamentally altered the competitive environment.
Ukinitev monopolov, pojav novih udeležencev in hiter tehnološki razvoj so bistveno spremenili konkurenčno okolje.
Television broadcasting was traditionally a reserved activity.
Razširjanje televizijskih programskih vsebin je bilo tradicionalno rezervirana dejavnost.
Since its inception, it has mostly been provided by public undertakings under a monopoly regime, mainly as a consequence of the limited availability of broadcasting frequencies and the high barriers to entry.
Od samega začetka so ga izvajala javna podjetja z monopolnim položajem, predvsem zaradi omejenega dostopa do oddajniških frekvenc in velikih ovir za vstop na trg.
In the 1970s, however, economic and technological developments made it increasingly possible for the EFTA States to allow other operators to broadcast.
V sedemdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja pa je začel gospodarski in tehnološki razvoj državam Efte vedno bolj omogočati, da so v radiodifuzno dejavnost spuščale tudi druge operaterje.
EFTA States have therefore decided to introduce competition in the market.
Zato so se države Efte odločile, da bodo na trg vpeljale konkurenco.
This has led to a wider choice for consumers, as many additional channels and new services became available; it has also favoured the emergence and growth of strong European operators, the development of new technologies, and a larger degree of pluralism in the sector, which means more than a simple availability of additional channels and services.
To je potrošnikom zagotovilo večjo izbiro, saj so postali na voljo številni dodatni kanali in storitve. Spodbudilo je tudi nastanek in rast močnih evropskih operaterjev, razvoj novih tehnologij ter večji pluralizem v sektorju, kar pa je več kot samo dostop do dodatnih kanalov in storitev.
Whilst opening the market to competition, EFTA States considered that public service broadcasting ought to be maintained, as a way to ensure the coverage of a number of areas and the satisfaction of needs and public policy objectives that would otherwise not necessarily be fulfilled to the optimal extent.
Ob odpiranju trga konkurenci pa so države Efte menile, da je treba ohraniti storitve javne radiodifuzije kot način za zagotavljanje pokrivanja številnih področij ter za zadovoljevanje potreb in doseganje ciljev javne politike, ki sicer ne bi bili optimalno izpolnjeni.
At the same time, the increased competition, together with the presence of State-funded operators, has also led to growing concerns for a level playing field, which have been brought to the Authority’s attention by private operators.
Obenem sta povečana konkurenca in prisotnost operaterjev, ki jih financira država, povzročila tudi vedno večje pomisleke glede enakih konkurenčnih pogojev, na kar so Nadzorni organ opozorili zasebni operaterji.
The complaints allege infringements of Articles 59 and 61 of the EEA Agreement in relation to public funding of public service broadcasters.
Pritožbe navajajo domnevne kršitve členov 59 in 61 Sporazuma EGP v zvezi z javnim financiranjem javnih radiotelevizij.
The previous Chapter on the application of State aid rules to public service broadcasting of the State Aid Guidelines [2] has first set out the framework governing State funding of public service broadcasting.
V prejšnjem poglavju o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za storitve javne radiodifuzije iz Smernic o državni pomoči [2] je bil določen okvir, ki ureja državno financiranje storitev javne radiodifuzije.
It has served as a good basis for the Authority to handle cases in the field of financing of public service broadcasters.
Nadzornemu organu je pomenil dobro podlago za obravnavo primerov na področju financiranja javnih radiotelevizij.
In the meantime, technological changes have fundamentally altered the broadcasting and audiovisual markets.
V tem času so tehnološke spremembe korenito spremenile radiodifuzijske in avdiovizualne trge.
There has been a multiplication of distribution platforms and technologies, such as digital television, IPTV, mobile TV and video on demand.
Znatno se je povečalo število distribucijskih platform in tehnologij, kot so digitalna televizija, spletna televizija (IPTV), mobilna TV in video na zahtevo.
This has led to an increase in competition with new players, such as network operators and internet companies, entering the market.
Konkurenca je z novimi udeleženci, ki vstopajo na trg (npr. omrežni operaterji in spletna podjetja), zaradi tega večja.
Technological developments have also allowed the emergence of new media services such as online information services and non-linear or on-demand services.
Tehnološki razvoj je omogočil nastanek novih medijskih storitev, npr. spletne informacijske storitve in nelinearne storitve ter storitve na zahtevo.
The provision of audiovisual services is converging, with consumers being increasingly able to obtain multiple services on a single platform or device or to obtain any given service on multiple platforms or devices.
Na področju zagotavljanja avdiovizualnih storitev prihaja do zbliževanja, saj lahko potrošniki uporabljajo vedno več storitev na eni platformi ali napravi oz. uporabljajo lahko katero koli storitev na več platformah ali napravah.
The increasing variety of options for consumers to access media content has led to the multiplication of audiovisual services offered and the fragmentation of audiences.
Vedno večja raznolikost možnosti, ki jih potrošniki imajo za dostop do medijskih vsebin, je povzročila povečanje števila ponujenih avdiovizualnih storitev in razdrobitev občinstva.
New technologies have enabled improved consumer participation.
Nove tehnologije so omogočile boljše sodelovanje potrošnikov.
The traditional passive consumption model has been gradually turning into active participation and control over content by consumers.
Tradicionalni model pasivnega potrošništva se postopoma spreminja v dejavno sodelovanje potrošnikov in potrošniški nadzor vsebin.
In order to keep up with the new challenges, both public and private broadcasters have been diversifying their activities, moving to new distribution platforms and expanding the range of their services.
Da bi bile javne in zasebne radiotelevizije kos novim izzivom, so diverzificirale svoje delavnosti, tako da so začele uporabljati nove distribucijske platforme in razširjale ponudbo svojih storitev.
