With regard, first, to the exception relating to protection of the decision-making process, the Court observed that the report fell within the purely administrative, and not legislative, functions of the Commission.
Nazadnje, Sodišče prve stopnje je preučilo, ali je Komisija ravnala nezakonito, ko je razkrila različne informacije v okviru zadevnih preiskav, med drugim s sporočilom za javnost, v katerem sta bili imeni tožečih strank povezani s trditvami o zadevi Eurostat.
The interest of the public in obtaining access to a document in accordance with the principle of transparency does not carry the same weight in the case of a document drawn up in an administrative procedure intended to apply the rules of competition law as in the case of a document relating to a legislative procedure.
Kljub opozorilu, da se institucijam nemore preprečiti, da bi javnost obveščale o tekočih preiskavah, je Sodišče prve stopnje menilo, da se v obravnavanem primeru nemore šteti, da je Komisija to storila z v so zahtevano diskretnostjo in zadržanostjo ter pri tem upoštevala ustrezno ravnotežje med interesi Y. Francheta in D.
Furthermore, the Court considered that, so far as the internal documents relating to the Airtours–First Choice concentration were concerned, the Commission had correctly taken the view that disclosure of those documents would reduce the ability of its services to express their points of view and would seriously undermine its decision-making process in the field of the control of concentrations, for those documents might indicate opinions of the Commission services, which would perhaps no longer appear in the final version of the decision.
Sodišče prve stopnje je prav tako preučilo vprašanje navedbe imena uradnika v dokumentih, ki se nanašajo na nepravilnosti in ki jih drugim posreduje institucija ali organ Skupnosti, in sicer v sodbi z dne 24. septembra 2008 v zadevi M proti Varuhu človekovih pravic (T-412/05, neobjavljena).
Such disclosure would encourage self-censorship and damage full and free communication between staff. In addition, the risk is reasonably foreseeable, for it is probable that those documents could be used to influence the position of the Commission’s staff, which has to be free and independent from all external pressures.
Tožeča stranka, uradnik Komisije, je zahtevala nadomestilo škode, ki naj bi ji nastala zaradi navedbe njenega imena v odločbi varuha človekovih pravico pritožbi, s katero so bile razkrite domnevne nepravilnosti v službi Komisije, v katero je bila razporejena, in ki se je nanašala na gradnjo čistilne naprave, ki bi negativno vplivala na okolje.
With regard, secondly, to the exception relating to protection of court proceedings and legal advice, which the applicant argued did not apply to the notes in reply drafted by the legal service for the attention of the Competition DG in connection with the preparation of the Airtours decision, the Court stated that disclosure of the notes in question could lead the legal service to display reticence and caution in the future in order not to affect the Commission’s decision-making capacity in areas in which it was involved in its administrative capacity.
Sodišče prve stopnje je presodilo, da so lahko le institucije ter organi Skupnosti, in ne posamezniki, predmet poizvedb varuha človekovih pravic. Ob uporabi, po analogiji, sodne prakse iz sodbe z dne 15. junija 1999 v zadevi Ismeri Europa proti Računskemu sodišču33 je poudarilo, da lahko varuh človekovih pravic zato, da bo njegova naloga uspešno opravljena, izjemoma popolnoma razkrije ugotovljena dejstva in torej poimensko navede vpletene osebe.
It added that disclosure of that advice would risk putting the Commission in the difficult position in which its legal service might find itself required to defend a position before the Court which was not its position during the internal procedure.
Na podlagi posebnih okoliščin, ki so lahko povezane z resnostjo dejstev ali nevarnostjo zmede, ki bi lahko škodovala interesom tretjih oseb, lahko varuh človekovih pravic v svojih odločbah poimensko navede osebe, ki načeloma ne spadajo v okvir njegovega nadzora, če se spoštuje načelo kontradiktornosti.
Such a conflict could have a considerable effect on both the freedom of the legal service to express its views and its ability effectively to defend before the Community judicature, on an equal footing with the other legal representatives of the various parties to legal proceedings, the Commission’s definitive position.
V obravnavanem primeru je Sodišče prve stopnje ugotovilo, na eni strani, da poimenovanje tožeče stranke ni bilo nujno niti za dosego cilja, ki mu je razkritje nepravilnosti sledilo, niti za preprečitev nevarnosti zmede z drugimi posameznimi uradniki, ki v razkritem primeru niso bili odgovorni, ter, na drugi strani, da varuh človekovih pravic pred sprejetjem svoje odločbe tožeče stranke ni zaslišal.
With regard, thirdly, to the exception relating to protection of inspections, investigations and audits, the Court, having found that, for one of the documents requested, the Commission’s decision contained only vague and general considerations that did not make it possible to understand how those inspections, investigations and audits could have been threatened, annulled the decision insofar as it refused access to that document.
Sodba je bila v pritožbenem postopku potrjena s sodbo Sodišča z dne 10. julija 2001 v zadevi Ismeri Europa proti Računskemu sodišču (C-315/99 P, Recueil, str. I-5281).
In Case T-144/05 Muñiz v Commission (judgment of 18 December 2008, not published), theCourtofFirstInstance also tackled the issue of the application of the exception relating to protection of the decision-making process, in connection with a request for access to preparatory documents submitted by a working group to the Nomenclature Committee, which plays apart in the legislative process for the adoption of measures classifying goods, when classification of particular goods is likely to give rise to difficulty.
Drugo posebej pomembno vprašanje, ki ga je v tem letu Sodišče prve stopnje preučilo na tem področju, je možnost uveljavljanja odgovornosti Skupnosti zaradi napak, ki jih je storila Komisija, ko je koncentracijo, ki ji je bila priglašena, razglasila za nezdružljivo s skupnim trgom.
The Court considered that, while the protection of the decision-making process from external pressure may constitute a legitimate ground for restricting access to documents, the reality of such pressure must be established with certainty, and it must be shown that therewas a foreseeable risk that the classification decision would be substantially affected.
ZadevaMyTravel proti Komisiji (sodba Sodiščaprvestopnje z dne 9. septembra 2008, T-212/03, še neobjavljena) se nanaša na tožbo, ki jo je vložil britanski organizator potovanj MyTravel, pred tem znan kot Airtours, ki mu je Komisija zavrnila možnost pridobitve celotnega kapitala enega od njegovih konkurentov v Združenem kraljestvu.
In addition, although account must be taken of the Commission’s desire that staff and experts should continue to be able to express their opinions freely, it must nonetheless be determined whether those concerns are objectively justified.
Družba Airtours je izpodbijala analizo Komisije in vložila tožbo pri Sodišču prve stopnje ter v zgoraj navedeni sodbi Airtours proti Komisiji dosegla razglasitev ničnosti izpodbijane odločbe, ker Komisija ni dokazala negativnih učinkov koncentracije.
The Court found that such was not the case in the circumstances, the Commission not having corroborated its contentions with any evidence, and annulled the contested decision.
Na podlagi te sodbe je družba MyTravel vložila odškodninsko tožbo zaradi škode, ki naj bi ji nastala zaradi nezakonitosti v postopku nadzora, ki ga je opravila Komisija.
The exception relating to protection of commercial interests was the subject of consideration in Case T-380/04 Terezakis v Commission (judgment of 30 January 2008, not published).
Sodišče prve stopnje je uporabilo podoben pristop kot v sodbi z dne 11. julija 2007 v zadevi Schneider Electric proti Komisiji34 in presodilo, da načeloma ne morebiti izključeno, da lahko očitne in resne napake pri ekonomski analizi Komisije, ki je podlaga za odločbo, s katero je bila koncentracija razglašena za nezdružljivo s skupnim trgom, pomenijo dovolj resno kršitev za vzpostavitev nepogodbene odgovornosti Skupnosti.
The Commission had, in particular, refused to grant the applicant access to a contract concluded between Athens International Airport and the Hochtief consortium, relating to the construction of the new Athens airport at Spata, on the ground that to disclose the contract would cause serious harm to the commercial interests of the parties to the contract.
Vendar je pojasnilo, da mora v okviru svoje preučitve odškodninske tožbe obvezno upoštevati naključja in težave v zvezi z nadzorom nad koncentracijami na splošno in zlasti v zvezi s strukturami zapletenega oligopola.
The Court stated that, by its nature, such a document was likely to contain confidential information concerning both the companies in question and their business relations and that, as a general rule, precise information relating to the cost structure of an undertaking constitutes business secrets, the disclosure of which to third parties is likely to undermine its commercial interests.
To je samo po sebi zahtevnejše od tega, kar se zahteva v okviru preučitve ničnostne tožbe, v okviru katere se Sodišče prve stopnje v mejah tožbenih razlogov, ki jih je predložila tožeča stranka, zadovolji s preučitvijo zakonitosti izpodbijane odločbe, da bi zagotovilo, da je Komisija pravilno presodila različne elemente, ki soji omogočili ugotovitev, da zadevna koncentracija ni združljiva s skupnim trgom.
Although certain passages contained information about the contracting parties and their business relations, the examination carried out by the Commission did not make it possible to determine specifically whether the exception relied on actually applied to all the information contained in the contract.
Zato preproste napake pri presoji in nepredložitev upoštevnih dokazov v okviru zgoraj navedene sodbe Airtours proti Komisiji same po sebi ne zadostujejo za ugotovitev očitne in resne kršitve meja diskrecijske pravice Komisije v zvezi z nadzorom koncentracij in ob zapletenem oligopolnem položaju.
Given that it seemed not to be impossible for the Commission to give reasons justifying the need for confidentiality in respect of the whole of the main contract without disclosing its content and, thereby, depriving the exception of its very purpose, and that it was not for the Court to substitute its assessment for that of the Commission, the court annulled the contested decision insofar as it refused access, even partially, to the contract.
Komisija je namreč kljub svojim napakam v obravnavani zadevi imela dokaze v upravnem spisu, na podlagi katerih je lahko razumno utemeljila svoje ugotovitve.
In Case T-42/05 Williams v Commission (judgment of 10 September 2008, not published), the question arose whether the decision partially refusing access to certain documents identified therein may be interpreted as entailing an implied refusal of access to certain other kinds of documents, such as memoranda and e-mails exchanged at the time of the preparatory work for Directive 2001/18 (29) on GMOs, which were not identified, but for which also access was sought.
Nezakonitosti, ki jih je ugotovilo Sodišče prve stopnje v sodbi Airtours proti Komisiji, ne pomenijo, da je Komisija storila očitno in resno kršitev pri uporabi diskrecijske pravice v zvezi z nadzorom koncentracij, če – kot v obravnavani zadevi – lahko navede razloge, zaradi katerih je lahko razumno menila, da je njena presoja utemeljena.
For that purpose, the Court proceeded in three stages.
Poleg tega, čeprav sklepanje Komisije o preglednosti trga Sodiščaprvestopnje ni prepričalo, ker ni bilo ustrezno podprto z dokazi oziroma je bilo slabo obrazloženo, pa se je Komisija odločila po natančni preučitvi podatkov, predloženih v okviru upravnega postopka.
First, it found that the Commission held a significant number of preparatory documents other than those identified in the contested decision and that, in the absence of any statement
Nazadnje, Sodišče prve stopnje je ugotovilo, da je Komisija preučila zaveze, ki jih je družba Airtours predlagala za odpravo težav v zvezi z morebitnimi negativnimi učinki koncentracije na konkurenco, ki jih je ugotovila Komisija, in da te niso jasno ustrezale očitkom.
Proceedings by the Commission to that effect, therewas no reason to suppose that the documents in question did not exist.
Leta 2008 je bilo pri Sodišču prve stopnje vloženih 37 pritožb zoper odločbe Sodišča za uslužbence.
Next, the Court ascertained whether the request for access was sufficiently precise to enable the Commission to understand that it related to such documents.
Pritožbeni senat, ki ga sestavlja pet sodnikov, in sicer predsednik Sodiščaprvestopnje ter izmenično štirje predsedniki senatov, je končal 21 od teh zadev.
Lastly, the Court examined whether the fact that the contested decision did not contemplate disclosing those documents could be justified in the particular circumstances of the case, inter alia on the basis that the request for access was very wideranging and imprecise.
Sodišče prve stopnje je s šestimi sodbami izpodbijane odločbe delno razveljavilo, tri od teh zadev pa so bile vrnjene Sodišču za uslužbencev novo odločanje35.
The implied refusal of access by definition constituted an absolute failure to state reasons which the Commission could not remedy by means of the arguments put before the Community judicature, and justified the annulment of the contested decision on that head.
V zvezi z eno od odločb, izdanih na tem področju leta 2008 (sodba Sodiščaprvestopnje z dne 5. marca 2008 v zadevi Combescot proti Komisiji, T-414/06 P, še neobjavljena), je prvi generalni pravobranilec Sodišča na podlagi člena 225(2), drugi pododstavek, ES in člena 62 Statuta Sodišča predlagal ponovno preučitev.
Common foreign and security policy— Fight against terrorism
Vendar ta predlog ni bil sprejet.36
The year 2008 saw the Court give more rulings in the sphere of the fight against terrorism in two judgments, in CasesT-256/07 People’sMojahedinOrganizationofIran v Council (judgment of 23 October 2008, under appeal) and T-284/08 People’sMojahedinOrganizationofIran v Council (judgment of 4 December 2008), the same applicant having been successful in part in 2006 (30).
V tem letu je bilo pri Sodišču prve stopnje vloženih 58 predlogov za izdajozačasne odredbe, kar je pomembno povečanje v primerjavi s številom predlogov (34), ki so bili vloženi leta 2007 in ki so že precej presegli število predlogov iz predhodnega leta.
The Community judicature must not only establish whether the evidence relied on is factually accurate, reliable and consistent, but must also ascertain whether that evidence contains all the relevant information to be taken into account in order to assess the situation and whether it is capable of substantiating the conclusions drawn from it.
Ugodil je le enemu predlogu za odložitev izvršitve, in sicer v sklepu predsednika Sodiščaprvestopnje z dne 30. oktobra 2008 v zadevi Francija proti Komisiji (T-257/07 RII, neobjavljen).
However, when conducting such a review, it must not substitute its own assessment of what is appropriate for that of the Council.
V zvezi z zadevo, v kateri je bil izdan navedeni sklep Francija proti Komisiji, je treba spomniti, da je sodnik za začasneodredbe že s sklepom z dne 28. septembra 2007 v zadevi Francija proti Komisiji (T-257/07 R, ZOdl., str.
Moreover, the Court emphasised that, where a Community institution enjoys broad discretion, the review of observance of certain procedural guarantees is of fundamental importance.

Še neobjavljene sodbe Sodiščaprvestopnje z dne 1. julija 2008 v zadevi Komisija proti D (T-262/06 P), z dne 19. septembra 2008 v zadevi Chassagne proti Komisiji (T-253/06 P) in z dne 13. oktobra 2008 v zadevi Neophytou proti Komisiji (T-43/07 P).
Court ofFirstInstance
Sodišče prve stopnje bile v njej navedene znanstvene in tehnične razlage, ki naj bi dopolnile razloge za prejšnji sistem.
Having carried out such a review, the Court annulled one of the contested decisions on the ground that the Council had failed to explain sufficiently the reasons why it had not taken into consideration the decision of a UnitedKingdom judicial authority, the Proscribed Organisations Appeal Commission (‘the POAC’), ordering the removal of the applicant from the list of terrorist organisations in the UnitedKingdom .
Predsednik Sodiščaprvestopnje je menil, da se lahko ob upoštevanju, da je nova ureditev skoraj enaka staremu sistemu, v okviru preizkusa pogoja v zvezi s fumus boni juris omeji na preučitev, ali nova obrazložitev vsebuje elemente, ki bi lahko utemeljili drugačno presojo od tiste iz sklepa z dne 28. septembra 2007 v zvezi s starim sistemom.
The Court recalled that it is imperative, for the purpose of adopting Community measures freezing funds, that the Council should check that there exists a decision taken by a competent national judicial authority and check the action taken at national level in response to that decision.
Na podlagi tega selektivnega preizkusa je predsednik sklenil, da ni takih elementov v zvezi z oceno in obvladovanjem tveganja, ki sta bila opravljena na podlagi nove obrazložitve.
By its decision, the POAC had in particular described as unreasonable the Home Secretary’s determination that the applicant was still an organisation involved in terrorism.
Predsednik je torej presodil, da se trditve Francoske republike, v skladu s katerimi nova ureditev krši previdnostno načelo, na prvi pogled ne zdijo neupoštevne in utemeljujejo poglobljeno preučitev, ki jo bomoralo opraviti sodišče, ki bo odločalo o glavni stvari.
In the second of those two judgments, given in an expedited procedure th everyday after the hearing, theCourtofFirstInstance , stressing that it is necessary for a fair balance to be struck between the needto combat international terrorism and the protection of fundamental rights, ruled that because the restrictions imposed by the Council on the rights of the parties concerned to a fair hearing must be offset by a strict judicial review which is independent and impartial, the Community courts must be able to review the lawfulness and merits of the measures to freeze funds without its being possible to raise objections that the evidence and information used by the Council is secret or confidential.
V zvezi s pogojem nujnosti je predsednik presodil, da obstaja resno tveganje nastanka resne in nepopravljive škode za zdravje ljudi, če se ne bi odobrila predlagana odložitev izvršitve.
The Court annulled the contested decision on the ground, inter alia, that the Council is not entitled to base its funds-freezing decision on information or material in the file communicated by a Member State, if that Member State is not willing to authorise its communication to the Community judicature.
V zvezi s tehtanjem interesov v tej zadevi je poudaril, da je treba v obravnavanem primeru zahtevam, povezanim z varstvom javnega zdravja, priznati prevlado nad preudarki, navedenimi v utemeljitev ublažitve zdravstvenih ukrepov, ki veljajo na tem področju.
In Case T-345/05 Mote v Parliament (judgment of 15October 2008), theCourtofFirstIn-stance ruled on a decision of the Parliament waiving the parliamentary immunity of one of its Members. Criminal proceedings had been brought against Mr Mote, a British citizen, on the ground that he had obtained State benefits on the basis of false declarations.
Prva skupina se nanaša na osem predlogov za izdajozačasne odredbe, ki jih je vložila Republika Ciper za odložitev izvršitve obvestilo razpisih, ki jih je pripravila Komisija in ki so bili namenjeni spodbujanju gospodarskega razvoja v severnem delu Cipra.
Following his election to the European Parliament, Mr Mote applied for the criminal proceedings pending against him to be stayed, relying on the privileges and immunities he enjoyed in his capacity as a Member of the European Parliament.
Republika Ciper je trdila, da je v teh obvestilih Komisija obravnavala turško skupnost na Cipru, kot da je avtonomna državna tvorba in kot da je priznan obstoj„Turške republike Severni Ciper“. Menila je, da ta obvestila pomenijo resno nevarnost za njeno suverenost, neodvisnost, ozemeljsko celovitost in enotnost.
In its judgment, the Court held that is apparent from the last paragraph of Article 10 of the Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Communities, according to which immunity cannot prevent the European Parliament from exercising its right to waive the immunity of one of its Members, that the Parliament is competent to decide on an ap-
V treh sklepih v zadevi Ciper proti Komisiji39 je predsednik Sodiščaprvestopnje po opozorilu, da je Republika Ciper edina državna tvorba na otoku, ki je mednarodno priznana, ter da je severni del otoka del njenega ozemlja in da spada le pod njeno suverenost, priznal,
Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the EuropeanCommunities of 8 April 1965 annexed to the Treaty establishing a single Council and a single Commission (OJ 1967 152, p. 13).
Neobjavljeni sklepi predsednika Sodiščaprvestopnje z dne 8. aprila 2008 v združenih zadevah Ciper proti Komisiji (T-54/08 R, T-87/08 R, T-88/08 R in od T-91/08 R do T-93/08 R) ter z dne 11. aprila 2008 v zadevi Ciper proti Komisiji (T-119/08 R) in v zadevi Ciper proti Komisiji (T-122/08 R).
Proceedings plication for waiver of the immunity of a Member.
Dejavnost da se utemeljitev Republike Ciper lahko zdi dovolj upoštevna za izpolnitev pogoja v zvezi s fumus boni juris.
By contrast, there is no rule establishing the Parliament as the competent authority for deciding whether the privilege provided for by Article 8 of the Protocol applies.
Vendar pa je sklenil, da ni podana očitna in resna kršitev mednarodnega prava in prava Skupnosti, tako da navedene škode ni mogoče opredeliti kot resne.
The field of application of Articles 8 and 10 of the Protocol is not the same, the objective of Article 10 being to safeguard the independence of Members by ensuring that pressure, in the form of threats of arrest or legal proceedings, is not brought to bear on them during the sessions of the Parliament, and the function of Article 8 being to protect Members against restrictions on their freedomofmovement , other than judicial restrictions.
Sporna obvestila sama po sebi namreč nimajo političnega namena, zlasti pa niso namenjena obravnavi problematike morebitne združitve otoka Ciper. Gre za tehnična besedila, s katerimi naj bi se ponudnikom podale koristne informacije, ki bi jim omogočile, da se odločijo, ali bodo sodelovali v postopku predložitve ponudb, in da pripravijo svojo razpisno dokumentacijo.
Observing that Mr Mote had not alleged any restrictions other than judicial, the Court concluded that the Parliament had not erred in law in deciding to waive Mr Mote’s immunity without ruling on the privilege granted to him in his capacity as a Member of the Parliament.
Pomnenju predsednika navedena škoda, ki je izključno nepremoženjska, prav tako ni nepopravljiva, ker bi bila morebitna razglasitev ničnosti izpodbijanih obvestil v postopkih v glavni stvari zadostno nadomestilo.
