It states that undertakings entrusted with the operation of SGEIs or having the character of a revenue-producing monopoly are subject to the rules contained in the EEA Agreement, in particular to the rules on competition.
V tem členu je navedeno, da morajo podjetja, pooblaščena za opravljanje storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, oziroma podjetja, ki imajo značaj dohodkovnega monopola, ravnati po pravilih iz Sporazuma EGP, zlasti po pravilih o konkurenci.
However, Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement provides for an exception from the rules contained in the EEA Agreement insofar as the application of the competition rules would obstruct, in law or in fact, the performance of the tasks assigned.
Vendar je v členu 59(2) Sporazuma EGP določena izjema od pravil iz Sporazuma EGP, če bi uporaba pravil o konkurenci pravno ali dejansko ovirala izvajanje nalog, ki so takim podjetjem dodeljene.
This exception only applies where the development of trade is not affected to such an extent as would be contrary to the interests of the Contracting Parties.
Ta izjema se uporablja le, kadar ni vpliva na razvoj trgovine v obsegu, ki bi bil v nasprotju z interesi pogodbenic.
When incorporated into the EEA Agreement, Commission Decision 2012/21/EU on the application of Article 106(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to State aid in the form of public service compensation granted to certain undertakings entrusted with the operation of services of general economic interest (‘Decision 2012/21/EU’) [6] will lay down the conditions under which certain types of public service compensation are to be regarded as compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement and exempt from the requirement of prior notification under Article 1(3) of Part I of Protocol 3 to the Surveillance and Court Agreement [7].
Ob vključitvi v Sporazum EGP bo Sklep Komisije 2012/21/EU o uporabi člena 106(2) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije za državno pomoč v obliki nadomestila za javne storitve, dodeljenega nekaterim podjetjem, pooblaščenim za opravljanje storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena (v nadaljnjem besedilu: Sklep 2012/21/EU) [6] določal pogoje, pod katerimi se nekatere vrste nadomestila za javne storitve obravnavajo kot združljive z notranjim trgom v skladu s členom 59(2) Sporazuma EGP in so izvzete iz zahteve po predhodni priglasitvi iz člena 1(3) dela I Protokola 3 k Sporazumu o nadzornem organu in sodišču [7].
The principles set out in this Framework apply to public service compensation only in so far as it constitutes state aid not covered by Decision 2012/21/EU.
Načela iz tega okvira se uporabljajo za nadomestila za javne storitve, ki pomenijo državno pomoč, za katero se ne uporablja Sklep 2012/21/EU.
Such compensation is subject to the prior notification requirement under Article 1(3) of Part I of Protocol 3 to the Surveillance and Court Agreement.
Za tovrstna nadomestila velja zahteva po predhodni priglasitvi iz člena 1(3) dela I Protokola 3 k Sporazumu o nadzornem organu in sodišču.
This Framework spells out the conditions under which such state aid can be found compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement.
Ta okvir podrobno določa pogoje, pod katerimi se taka državna pomoč lahko obravnava kot združljiva z notranjim trgom na podlagi člena 59(2) Sporazuma EGP.
It replaces the Chapter of the Authority’s Guidelines on state aid in the form of public service compensation [8].
Nadomešča poglavje iz smernic Nadzornega organa o državni pomoči v obliki nadomestila z javne storitve [8].
The principles set out in this Framework apply to public service compensation in the field of air and maritime transport, without prejudice to stricter specific provisions contained in sectoral EEA legislation.
Načela iz tega okvira se uporabljajo za nadomestila za javne storitve na področju zračnega in pomorskega prometa, brez poseganja v strožje posebne določbe iz sektorske zakonodaje EGP.
They apply neither to the land transport sector, nor to the public service broadcasting sector, which is covered by the Chapter of the Authority’s Guidelines on the application of state aid rules to public service broadcasting [9].
Ne uporabljajo se niti za sektor kopenskega prometa niti za sektor storitev javne radiotelevizije iz poglavja v smernicah Nadzornega organa o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za storitve javne radiotelevizije [9].
Aid for providers of SGEIs in difficulty will be assessed under the Chapter of the Authority’s Guidelines on state aid for rescuing and restructuring firms in difficulty [10].
Pomoč za izvajalce storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, ki so v težavah, bo ocenjena na podlagi poglavja iz smernic Nadzornega organa o državni pomoči za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v težavah [10].

Conditions governing the compatibility of public service compensation that constitutes state aid
2 Pogoji, ki urejajo združljivost nadomestila za javne storitve, ki pomeni državno pomoč
General provisions
2.1 Splošne določbe
At the current stage of development of the internal market, state aid falling outside the scope of Decision 2012/21/EU may be declared compatible with Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement if it is necessary for the operation of the service of general economic interest concerned and does not affect the development of trade to such an extent as to be contrary to the interests of the EEA.
Na trenutni stopnji razvoja notranjega trga je mogoče državno pomoč, ki ni zajeta v Sklepu 2012/21/EU, razglasiti za združljivo s členom 59(2) Sporazuma EGP, če je potrebna za opravljanje zadevne storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena in ne vpliva na razvoj trgovine v obsegu, ki je v nasprotju z interesi EGP.
The conditions set out in sections 2.2 to 2.10 must be met in order to achieve that balance.
Za dosego takšnega ravnovesja morajo biti izpolnjeni pogoji iz oddelkov 2.2 do 2.10.
Genuine service of general economic interest as referred to in Article 59 of the EEA Agreement
2.2 Resnična storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, kot je navedena v členu 59 Sporazuma EGP
The aid must be granted for a genuine and correctly defined service of general economic interest as referred to in Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement.
Pomoč mora biti dodeljena resnični in pravilno opredeljeni storitvi splošnega gospodarskega pomena, kakor je navedena v členu 59(2) Sporazuma EGP.
In its Chapter on the application of the state aid rules to compensation granted for the provision of services of general economic interest, the Authority has provided guidance on the requirements concerning the definition of a service of general economic interest.
Nadzorni organ je dal usmeritve glede zahtev v zvezi z opredelitvijo storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena v poglavju o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za nadomestilo, dodeljeno za opravljanje storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
In particular, EFTA States cannot attach specific public service obligations to services that are already provided or can be provided satisfactorily and under conditions, such as price, objective quality characteristics, continuity and access to the service, consistent with the public interest, as defined by the State, by undertakings operating under normal market conditions.
Države Efte zlasti ne morejo določiti posebnih obveznosti javne storitve za storitve, ki jih podjetja, ki poslujejo v običajnih tržnih razmerah, že opravljajo oziroma bi jih lahko opravljala zadovoljivo in pod pogoji, kot so cena, objektivne kakovostne lastnosti, kontinuiteta in dostop do storitve, ki so skladni z javnim interesom, kakor ga opredeli država.
As for the question of whether a service can be provided by the market, the Authority's assessment is limited to checking whether the EFTA State’s definition is vitiated by a manifest error, unless provisions of EEA law provide a stricter standard.
V zvezi s vprašanjem, ali lahko trg omogoča opravljanje storitve, je ocena Nadzornega organa omejena na preverjanje, ali je država Efte pri opredelitvi naredila očitno napako, razen če določbe prava EGP določajo strožji standard.
For the scope of application of the principles set out in this Framework, EFTA States should show that they have given proper consideration to the public service needs supported by way of a public consultation or other appropriate instruments to take the interests of users and providers into account.
Da bi države Efte lahko uporabile načela iz tega okvira, morajo dokazati, da so ustrezno proučile potrebe po javnih storitvah in pri tem opravile javna posvetovanja ali uporabile druge primerne instrumente, da bi upoštevale interese uporabnikov in izvajalcev storitev.
This does not apply where it is clear that a new consultation will not bring any significant added value to a recent consultation.
To ne velja, kadar je jasno, da novo posvetovanje ne bo znatno prispevalo k nedavnemu posvetovanju.
Need for an entrustment act specifying the public service obligations and the methods of calculating compensation
2.3 Potreba po aktu o pooblastitvi, v katerem so določene obveznosti javne storitve in metode za izračun nadomestila
Responsibility for the operation of the SGEI must be entrusted to the undertaking concerned by way of one or more acts, the form of which may be determined by each EFTA State.
Zadevno podjetje mora biti pooblaščeno za opravljanje storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena z enim ali več akti, katerih obliko lahko določi vsaka država Efte.
The term ‘EFTA State’ covers the central, regional and local authorities.
Izraz „država Efte“ zajema centralne, regionalne in lokalne javne organe.
The act or acts must include, in particular:
Akt oziroma akti morajo vključevati zlasti:
the description of the compensation mechanism and the parameters for calculating, monitoring and reviewing the compensation; and
opis mehanizma nadomestila ter parametrov za izračun, spremljanje in pregled nadomestila
Duration of the period of entrustment
2.4 Trajanje obdobja pooblastitve
The duration of the period of entrustment should be justified by reference to objective criteria such as the need to amortise non-transferable fixed assets.
Trajanje obdobja pooblastitve mora biti utemeljeno z navedbo objektivnih meril, kot je potreba po amortizaciji neprenosljivih stalnih sredstev.
In principle, the duration of the period of entrustment should not exceed the period required for the depreciation of the most significant assets required to provide the SGEI.
Trajanje obdobja pooblastitve načeloma ne sme biti daljše od obdobja, potrebnega za amortizacijo najpomembnejših sredstev, ki so potrebna za opravljanje storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
Compliance with Directive 2006/111/EC
2.5 Skladnost z Direktivo 2006/111/ES
Aid will be considered compatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement only where the undertaking complies, where applicable, with Directive 2006/111/EC [12].
Pomoč bo veljala za združljivo z notranjim trgom na podlagi člena 59(2) Sporazuma EGP samo, kadar podjetje, če je primerno, spoštuje Direktivo 2006/111/ES [12].
Aid that does not comply with that Directive is considered to affect the development of trade to an extent that would be contrary to the interest of the EEA within the meaning of Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement.
Za pomoč, ki ni skladna z navedeno direktivo, velja, da vpliva na razvoj trgovine v obsegu, ki bi bil v nasprotju z interesi EGP v smislu člena 59(2) Sporazuma EGP.
Compliance with EEA public procurement rules
2.6 Skladnost s pravili EGP na področju javnih naročil
Aid will be considered compatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement only where the responsible authority, when entrusting the provision of the service to the undertaking in question, has complied or commits to comply with the applicable EEA rules in the area of public procurement.
Pomoč bo veljala za združljivo z notranjim trgom na podlagi člena 59(2) Sporazuma EGP samo, če je pristojni organ ob pooblastitvi zadevnega podjetja za opravljanje storitve spoštoval veljavna pravila EGP na področju javnih naročil oziroma se je zavezal, da jih bo spoštoval.
This includes any requirements of transparency, equal treatment and non-discrimination resulting directly from the EEA Agreement and, where applicable, secondary EEA law.
To vključuje morebitne zahteve glede preglednosti, enakega obravnavanja in nediskriminiranja, ki izhajajo neposredno iz Sporazuma EGP in iz sekundarnega prava EGP, če se uporablja.
Aid that does not comply with such rules and requirements is considered to affect the development of trade to an extent that would be contrary to the interests of the EEA within the meaning of Article 59(2) of the EEA Agreement.
Za pomoč, ki ni skladna s takimi pravili in zahtevami, velja, da vpliva na razvoj trgovine v obsegu, ki bi bil v nasprotju z interesi EGP v smislu člena 59(2) Sporazuma EGP.
Absence of discrimination
2.7 Nediskriminatorna obravnava
Where an authority assigns the provision of the same SGEI to several undertakings, the compensation should be calculated on the basis of the same method in respect of each undertaking.
Kadar organ dodeli eno storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena v izvajanje več podjetjem, se nadomestilo izračuna po enaki metodi za vsako podjetje.
Amount of compensation
2.8 Znesek nadomestila
The amount of compensation must not exceed what is necessary to cover the net cost [13] of discharging the public service obligations, including a reasonable profit.
Znesek nadomestila ne sme presegati zneska, ki je nujen za kritje neto stroškov [13] izpolnjevanja obveznosti javne storitve, vključno z zmernim dobičkom.
The amount of compensation can be established on the basis of either the expected costs and revenues, or the costs and revenues actually incurred, or a combination of the two, depending on the efficiency incentives that the EFTA State wishes to provide from the outset, in accordance with paragraphs 40 and 41.
Znesek nadomestila se lahko določi na podlagi pričakovanih stroškov in prihodkov ali dejansko nastalih stroškov in prihodkov ali pa se uporabi kombinacija obojega, odvisno od spodbud za učinkovitost, ki jih želi država Efte zagotavljati že od začetka v skladu z odstavkoma 40 in 41.
Where the compensation is based, in whole or in part, on expected costs and revenues, they must be specified in the entrustment act.
Če nadomestilo v celoti ali delno temelji na pričakovanih stroških in prihodkih, se ti pričakovani stroški in prihodki morajo določiti v aktu o pooblastitvi.
They must be based on plausible and observable parameters concerning the economic environment in which the SGEI is being provided.
Temeljiti morajo na prepričljivih in merljivih parametrih v zvezi z gospodarskim okoljem, v katerem se opravlja storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
They must rely, where appropriate, on the expertise of sector regulators or of other entities independent from the undertaking.
Po potrebi morajo temeljiti na strokovnem znanju in izkušnjah sektorskih regulativnih organov ali drugih od podjetja neodvisnih subjektov.
EFTA States must indicate the sources on which these expectations are based [14].
Države Efte morajo navesti vire, na katerih so osnovana ta pričakovanja [14].
The cost estimation must reflect the expectations of efficiency gains achieved by the SGEI provider over the lifetime of the entrustment.
Pri oceni stroškov se mora upoštevati pričakovano povečanje učinkovitosti, ki naj bi ga dosegel izvajalec storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena v času pooblastitve.
Net cost necessary to discharge the public service obligations
Neto stroški, potrebni za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve
The net cost necessary, or expected to be necessary, to discharge the public service obligations should be calculated using the net avoided cost methodology where this is required by EEA or national legislation and in other cases where this is possible.
Dejanske ali pričakovane neto stroške, potrebne za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve, bi bilo treba izračunati na podlagi metodologije NAC, kadar to zahteva zakonodaja EGP ali nacionalna zakonodaja in v drugih primerih, kadar je to mogoče.
Net avoided cost methodology
Metodologija NAC
Under the net avoided cost methodology, the net cost necessary, or expected to be necessary, to discharge the public service obligations is calculated as the difference between the net cost for the provider of operating with the public service obligation and the net cost or profit for the same provider of operating without that obligation.
V skladu z metodologijo NAC se dejanski ali pričakovani neto stroški, potrebni za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve, izračunajo kot razlika med neto stroški izbranega izvajalca javne storitve, če deluje z obveznostmi izvajanja javne storitve, ter njegovimi neto stroški ali dobičkom, če deluje brez navedenih obveznosti.
Due attention must be given to correctly assessing the costs that the service provider is expected to avoid and the revenues it is expected not to receive, in the absence of the public service obligation.
Ustrezno pozornost je treba nameniti pravilni oceni stroškov, ki bi se jim izvajalec storitve po pričakovanju izognil, in prihodkov, ki jih ne bi imel, če ne bi izpolnjeval obveznosti javne storitve.
The net cost calculation should assess the benefits, including intangible benefits as far as possible, to the SGEI provider.
Pri izračunu neto stroškov je treba oceniti koristi, vključno z nematerialnimi koristmi, v kolikor je to mogoče, za izvajalca storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
Annex IV to Directive 2002/22/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on universal service and users’ rights relating to electronic communications networks and services [15], and Annex I to Directive 97/67/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 December 1997 on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service [16], contain more detailed guidance on how to apply the net avoided cost methodology.
Podrobnejša navodila o uporabi metodologije NAC so v Prilogi IV k Direktivi 2002/22/ES o univerzalni storitvi in pravicah uporabnikov v zvezi z elektronskimi komunikacijskimi omrežji in storitvami [15] ter Prilogi I k Direktivi 97/67/ES Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 15. decembra 1997 o skupnih pravilih za razvoj notranjega trga poštnih storitev v Skupnosti in za izboljšanje kakovosti storitve [16].
Although the Authority regards the net avoided cost methodology as the most accurate method for determining the cost of a public service obligation, there may be cases where the use of that methodology is not feasible or appropriate.
Čeprav je metodologija NAC po mnenju Nadzornega organa najbolj natančna metoda za določanje stroškov izpolnjevanja obveznosti javne storitve, je lahko uporaba navedene metodologije v nekaterih primerih neizvedljiva ali neprimerna.
In such cases, where duly justified, the Authority can accept alternative methods for calculating the net cost necessary to discharge the public service obligations, such as the methodology based on cost allocation.
Nadzorni organ lahko v takih ustrezno utemeljenih primerih sprejme druge metode za izračun neto stroškov, potrebnih za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve, kot je metodologija na podlagi razporeditve stroškov.
Methodology based on cost allocation
Metodologija na podlagi razporeditve stroškov
Under the cost allocation methodology, the net cost necessary to discharge the public service obligations can be calculated as the difference between the costs and the revenues for a designated provider of fulfilling the public service obligations, as specified and estimated in the entrustment act.
V skladu z metodologijo razporeditve stroškov se lahko neto stroški, potrebni za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve, izračunajo kot razlika med stroški in prihodki izbranega izvajalca pri izpolnjevanju obveznosti javne storitve, kakor so določeni in ocenjeni v aktu o pooblastitvi.
The costs to be taken into consideration include all the costs necessary to operate the SGEI.
Stroški, ki se upoštevajo, vključujejo vse stroške, potrebne za opravljanje storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena.
Where the activities of the undertaking in question are confined to the SGEI, all its costs may be taken into consideration.
Kadar so dejavnosti zadevnega podjetja omejene na storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, se lahko upoštevajo vsi njegovi stroški.
Where the undertaking also carries out activities falling outside the scope of the SGEI, the costs to be taken into consideration may cover all the direct costs necessary to discharge the public service obligations and an appropriate contribution to the indirect costs common to both the SGEI and other activities.
Če podjetje opravlja tudi dejavnosti zunaj obsega storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena, lahko stroški, ki se upoštevajo, zajemajo vse neposredne stroške, potrebne za izpolnjevanje obveznosti javne storitve, in ustrezen prispevek k posrednim stroškom, ki so skupni storitvi splošnega gospodarskega pomena in drugim dejavnostim.
The costs linked to any activities outside the scope of the SGEI must include all the direct costs and an appropriate contribution to the common costs.
Stroški, povezani s katero koli dejavnostjo, ki se opravlja zunaj obsega storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena, morajo zajemati vse neposredne stroške in ustrezen prispevek k skupnim stroškom.
To determine the appropriate contribution to the common costs, market prices for the use of the resources, where available, can be taken as a benchmark [17].
Za določitev ustreznega prispevka k skupnim stroškom se lahko kot referenčno merilo uporabijo tržne cene uporabe virov, če so na voljo [17].
In the absence of such market prices, the appropriate contribution to the common costs can be determined by reference to the level of reasonable profit [18] the undertaking is expected to make on the activities falling outside the scope of the SGEI or by other methodologies where more appropriate.
Če takih tržnih cen ni na voljo, se lahko ustrezni prispevek k skupnim stroškom določi z navedbo stopnje zmernega dobička [18], ki naj bi ga podjetje po pričakovanjih ustvarilo z dejavnostmi zunaj obsega storitve splošnega gospodarskega pomena, ali z drugimi metodami, če so ustreznejše.
The revenue to be taken into account must include at least the entire revenue earned from the SGEI, as specified in the entrustment act, and the excessive profits generated from special or exclusive rights even if linked to other activities as provided in paragraph 45, regardless of whether those excessive profits are classified as state aid within the meaning of Article 61(1) of the EEA Agreement.
Prihodek, ki se upošteva, mora vključevati vsaj celotni prihodek, ki ga je ustvarila storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena, kakor je določen v aktu o pooblastitvi, in prekomerne dobičke, ustvarjene iz naslova posebnih ali izključnih pravic, tudi če so povezane z drugimi dejavnostmi, kakor je opisano v odstavku 45, ne glede na to, ali so ti prekomerni dobički uvrščeni med državne pomoči v smislu člena 61(1) Sporazuma EGP.
