Consequently, Italy had proposed to compensate its own poultry producers, arguing that the dioxin scandal should be considered an ‘extraordinary event’ not only in Belgium but also in Italy.
Zato je Italija predlagala odškodnino za svoje rejce perutnine, pri čemer je trdila, da je treba škandal z dioksinom šteti za „izredni dogodek“ ne samo v Belgiji, ampak tudi v Italiji.
Under State aid rules, the only way to authorise such aid would be to consider the e ects of the dioxin scare an ‘extraordinary event’.
V skladu s pravili o državni pomoči bi bil edini način za odobritev take pomoči ta, da bi se učinki preplaha v zvezi z dioksinom šteli za „izredni dogodek“.
However, the Commission had expressed serious doubts concerning this approach for the Italian market. e information received a er opening proceedings did not dispel these doubts.
Vendar pa je Komisija izrazila resne dvome o tem pristopu za italijanski trg.

Pomoč za reševanje za dobavitelje skupini Parmalat
On 14 July, the Commission adopted a decision (306) not to raise objections to one–off aid amounting to some EUR 1 million for milk producers in Lombardy who are in nancial di culties because they have not been paid for milk delivered to the Parmalat group. e rescue aid consists in a guarantee, in line with the conditions of the guidelines for rescue and restructuring aid.
Komisija je 14. julija sprejela odločbo (306), da ne bo ugovarjala zoper enkratno pomoč v višini približno 1 milijona EUR za proizvajalce mleka v Lombardiji, ki so se znašli v nančnih težavah, ker niso dobili plačila za mleko, dobavljeno skupini Parmalat. Pomoč za reševanje je sestavljena iz jamstva v skladu s pogoji smernic o pomoči za reševanje in prestrukturiranje.
Italy proposed average calculation methods for establishing when a typical dairy farmer can be considered in di culty and therefore qualifies for aid.
Italija je predlagala metode povprečnega izračuna za določitev, kdaj se za tipičnega kmeta, ki proizvaja mleko, lahko šteje, da je v težavah in torej upravičen do pomoči.
Certain farmers will be excluded because they are considered sufficiently well-off not to be in di culties.
Nekateri kmetje bodo izključeni, saj zanje velja, da imajo dovolj sredstev, da niso v težavah.
Regional intervention for the development of Confidi in the agricultural sector
Regionalno posredovanje za razvoj zadrug Con di v kmetijskem sektorju
On 10 May, the Commission approved aid (307) amounting to EUR 1 032 913.80 for guarantees and EUR 516 456.90 for technical assistance in favour of Confidi, which are cooperatives made up of undertakings in the agricultural sector and associations thereof that manage guarantee funds.
Komisija je 10. maja odobrila pomoč (307) v višini 1 032 913,80 EUR za jamstva in 516 456,90 EUR za tehnično pomoč za zadruge Con di, sestavljene iz podjetij v kmetijskem sektorju in njihovih združenj, ki upravljajo jamstvene sklade.

Pomoč je odobrena za obdobje petih let za:
— providing subsidiary guarantees to farmers or cooperatives, provided that the guarantees are linked to operations nanced by a regional/national aid scheme approved by the Commission and that the combined aid does not exceed the thresholds set in the Commission decisions approving the aid;
• zagotovitev pomožnih jamstev kmetom ali zadrugam, če so jamstva povezana z ukrepi, ki jih nancira program regionalne/nacionalne pomoči, ki ga je odobrila
Income aid to the downstream sector (slaughtering undertakings, wholesale and retail traders of meat) covered by the decision amounts to around EUR 103.25 per holding and is considered to be de minimis aid and therefore not caught by the State aid prohibition.
Dohodkovna pomoč za sektor nadaljnje proizvodnje (klavnice, trgovci z mesom na debelo in drobno), ki jo zajema odločba, znaša okoli 103,25 EUR na gospodarstvo in se šteje za de minimis ter torej ni zajeta v prepovedi državne pomoči.

IV – Nadzor državnih pomoči
On 12 February, the Commission took a decision concerning advantages granted by the Walloon Region (334) and the publicly owned Brussels South Charleroi
Komisija je 12. februarja sprejela odločbo o ugodnostih, ki sta jih Valonska regija (334) in Brussels South Charleroi Airport (BSCA) v javni lasti, odobrila letalskemu prevozniku Ryanair v zvezi z njegovo namestitvijo v Charleroiju.
Airport (BSCA) to the airline Ryanair in connection with its establishment at Charleroi. e Commission concluded that no private operator in the same circumstances as BSCA would have granted the same advantages.
Komisija je ugotovila, da noben zasebni operater ne bi v enakih okoliščinah kot BSCA odobril enakih ugodnosti.
Since the market private investor principle had not been adhered to in this case, the advantages granted to Ryanair constituted State aid which could distort competition.
Ker načelo zasebnega vlagatelja v tem primeru ni bilo upoštevano, so ugodnosti, odobrene prevozniku Ryanair, pomenile državno pomoč, ki bi lahko izkrivljala konkurenco.
Report on competition policy 2004 — Volume 1 infrastructure which is currently underused and represents a cost to the community as a whole.
V tej odločbi je Komisija odobrila določene vrste pomoči, zlasti pomoč, ki omogoča pravi razvoj novih prog na podlagi jasno opredeljenih pogojev.
Certain types of aid were authorised by the Commission in this decision, in particular aid which permits genuine development of new routes under clearly de ned conditions. e decision also indicated that certain forms of aid cannot be authorised; the Commission aims to guarantee that the advantages granted at a particular airport are not discriminatory and are surrounded by greater transparency.
V odločbi je tudi navedla, da nekaterih oblik pomoči ni mogoče odobriti; Komisija si prizadeva zagotoviti, da ugodnosti, odobrene določenem letališču, niso diskriminacijske in da so bolj pregledne.
At the time of the decision the Commission also announced that it would draw up guidelines dealing with the issues of State aid to low cost airlines, start-up aid for new routes and the public nancing of airports: ‘Community guidelines on nancing of airports and start-up aid to airlines departing from regional airports’.
V času odločbe je Komisija tudi naznanila, da bo pripravila smernice, ki bodo obravnavale vprašanja državne pomoči za nizkocenovne letalske prevoznike, zagonske pomoči za nove proge in javnega nanciranja letališč: „Smernice Skupnosti o nanciranju letališč in zagonski državni pomoči letalskim družbam z odhodi z regionalnih letališč“.
On 16 March, the Commission decided to open a State aid investigation in respect of Greece (335), expressing doubts about the establishment and privatisation of a company called Olympic Airlines (NOA) — which took over the aviation activities of Olympic Airways — as well as a number of other measures. e Commission also called into question the non-recovery by the Greek State of illegal and incompatible aid a er the December 2002 decision, the non-payment by the company of tax debt in 2003, the provision of an advance (over EUR 130 million) by the Greek State to fund the restructuring and privatisation of the company, and the non-payment by the company of the airport modernisation tax (spatosimo) charged to passengers.
Olympic Airlines (NOA) – ki je prevzelo dejavnosti zračnega prometa podjetja Olympic Airways – ter o vrsti drugih ukrepov. Komisija je podvomila tudi o nevračilu s strani grške države nezakonite in nezdružljive pomoči po odločbi iz decembra 2002, neplačilu s strani podjetja davčnega dolga leta 2003, zagotovitvi predujma (več kot 130 milijonov EUR) s strani grške države za nanciranje prestrukturiranja in privatizacije podjetja ter neplačilu s strani podjetja davka za posodobitev letališča (Spatosimo), zaračunanega potnikom.
Significant among the other decisions taken during 2004 in the area of air transport was the decision of 20 July by which the Commission authorised rescue aid for the Italian airline Alitalia (336). e aid consists of a EUR 400 million bridging loan at short-term market rates which must be repaid on expiry to enable arrangements to be worked out for the possible restructuring of the company without additional State aid.
Med odločbami, sprejetimi v letu 2004 na področju zračnega prometa, je bila med drugim pomembna odločba z dne 20. julija, s katero je Komisija odobrila pomoč za reševanje italijanske letalske družbe Alitalia (336).
Portuguese airline, was to merge its ground handling business into that of TAP and in return would acquire 6 % of the shares in the new ground handling company. e Commission held that this series of transactions did not constitute State aid as no State resources were to be put at the disposal of TAP and because the purchaser Portugalia paid a market price for the shareholding involved.
Pomoč vsebuje 400 milijonov EUR premostitvenega posojila po kratkoročnih tržnih obrestnih merah, ki ga je treba povrniti ob izteku, da se omogoči določitev načinov za morebitno prestrukturiranje podjetja brez dodatne državne pomoči.
Italian public broadcaster RAI is charged with a public service, namely public service broadcasting.
Licenčnina se uporablja za nanciranje zagotavljanja te javne storitve.
A licence fee serves to nance the provision of this public service. is licence fee constitutes existing aid because it existed before the Treaty of Rome entered into force and its essential features have remained unaltered since then.
Ta licenčnina predstavlja obstoječo pomoč, ker je obstajala pred začetkom veljavnosti Rimske pogodbe, njene glavne lastnosti pa se od tedaj niso spremenile.
In the course of an existing aid procedure aimed at ensuring the ongoing compatibility of the licence fee nancing scheme of RAI (338), the Commission’s departments proposed improvements to the Italian authorities. ese proposals should ensure that the licence fee scheme is transparent and contains safeguards against excessive compensation.
V času postopka v zvezi z obstoječo pomočjo za zagotovitev neprekinjene združljivosti sistema nanciranja RAI z licenčninami (338) so službe Komisije italijanskim organom predlagale izboljšave. Ti predlogi bi morali zagotoviti, da je sistem licenčnin pregleden in vsebuje varovala proti presežnemu nadomestilu.

Komisija je leta 2004 v skladu s svojim sporočilom o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za storitve javne radiodifuzije (343) in svojimi odločbami v tem sektorju leta
Commission continued its State aid investigations into the State nancing of public service broadcasting organisations.
2003 (344) nadaljevala svoje preiskave državnega nanciranja organizacij za storitve javne radiodifuzije.
In the rst nine months of 2004, the Commission started investigations into the nancing of the Dutch public broadcasting system and adopted a nal decision on the nancing of the Danish public service broadcaster TV2/Danmark (TV2).
V prvih devetih mesecih leta 2004 je Komisija začela preiskave nanciranja nizozemskega sistema javne radiodifuzije in sprejela dokončno odločbo o nanciranju danskega izvajalca storitev javne radiodifuzije TV2/Danmark (TV2).
On 19 May, the Commission closed its in-depth investigation into the State nancing of the Danish public service broadcaster TV2, ordering TV2 to reimburse approximately EUR 84.4 million plus interest in incompatible State aid. e formal investigation covered the period 1995–2002. e Commission’s assessment considered whether the State aid nancing that TV2 had received for fulfilling its public service task was compatible under Article 86(2) EC.
Uradna preiskava je zajemala obdobje med letoma 1995 in 2002. Ocena Komisija se je nanašala na to, ali je bilo nanciranje državne pomoči, ki jo je TV2 prejela za opravljanje svoje naloge javne storitve, združljivo na podlagi člena 86(2) ES.
In its decision the Commission calculated rstly whether the State compensation was proportionate to the net cost TV2 had to bear in fulfilling its public service obligation. e Commission found that TV2 had been overcompensated by DKK 628.2 (EUR 84.4) million.
Komisija je v svoji odločbi najprej izračunala, ali je bilo državno nadomestilo sorazmerno z neto stroški, ki jih imela TV2 pri izpolnjevanju svoje obveznosti javnih storitev. Komisija je ugotovila, da je TV2 prejela za 628,2 milijona DKK (84,4 milijona EUR) previsoko nadomestilo.
According to the broadcasting communication, where a public service broadcaster has not aimed to maximise revenues generated by the public service activity, the need for public funding will be unduly increased. is would distort competition beyond what is necessary for the fulfilment of the public service task.
Glede na sporočilo o radiodifuziji, če si izvajalec storitev javne radiodifuzije ni prizadeval doseči čim višjih prihodkov iz dejavnosti javne storitve, se potreba po javnem nanciranju neupravičeno poveča. Izkrivljanje konkurence bi bilo večje, kot je potrebno za izpolnjevanje naloge javne storitve.
In addition, the Commission’s investigation revealed that the Danish State, as owner of TV2, did not behave like a market investor in the period 1995–2002 when it decided to leave the annual amounts of excess compensation in TV2.
Poleg tega je preiskava Komisije razkrila, da se danska država kot lastnica TV2 ni obnašala kot tržni vlagatelj v obdobju 1995–2002, ko se je odločila, da pusti letne zneske presežnega nadomestila v TV2.
Although the Danish State claimed a erwards that the surplus was necessary to build up equity, it did not follow the strategy of a private investor because the Danish State did not, before reinvesting the excess compensation into TV2, determine what the appropriate level of equity capital should be for such a TV broadcaster and what nancial performance it expected to achieve with its equity.
Čeprav je potem danska država trdila, da je bil presežek nujen za oblikovanje lastniškega kapitala, pa ni sledila strategiji zasebnega vlagatelja, ker pred ponovnim investiranjem presežnega nadomestila v TV2 ni določila, kakšna bi morala biti ustrezna raven lastniškega kapitala za tako televizijsko postajo in kakšne nančne rezultate je pričakovala, da bo dosegla s svojim lastniškim kapitalom. Nasprotno, danska država se je omejila na to, da je pustila, da se je presežno nadomestilo nabiralo v podjetju.
It feels that the compensation payments may amount to State aid, both to the private broadcasters as well as to T-Systems, the operator of the DVB-T network.
Za spodbuditev projekta prizemne digitalne video radiodifuzije je organ za medije v Berlin-Brandenburgu zasebnim radiodifuznim hišam izplačal nadomestilo za tako imenovane „stroške prehoda“.
On 14 July the Commission therefore decided to open a formal investigation.
Zasebne radiodifuzne hiše so dobile subvencijo, ki naj bi jih spodbudila k prehodu z analogne prizemne televizije na digitalno prizemno televizijo.
602. e Commission approved a series of projects involving public support for broadband build-out (347). e development of the information society is a crucial aspect of the Lisbon agenda and the Commission accepted that the deployment of broadband needs to be encouraged, especially in less-favoured areas (348). e Commission departments assessed under what conditions such projects could be compatible with the EU rules on State aid. e decisions provide guidance on how to design public support that is compatible with the competition rules.
Službe Komisije so ocenile, pod še zlasti na območjih z omejenimi možnostmi ( kakšnimi pogoji so lahko taki projekti združljivi s pravili EU o državni pomoči. Odločbe zagotavljajo smernice o tem, kako oblikovati javno podporo, ki je združljiva s pravili konkurence.
In addition, since the project met the criteria established by the Court of Justice in its Altmark judgment (349), the measure did not constitute aid.
Poleg tega ukrep ni pomenil pomoči, ker je izpolnjeval merila, ki jih je določilo Sodišče v svoji sodbi Altmark (349).
