2008 — CASE C-491/06
2008 – ZADEVA C-491/06
The mechanical ventilation system shall provide sufficient and evenly distributed ventilation with a nominal ventilation capacity of at least 61 m3/h per 100 kg of pig.
Sistem mehanskega prezračevanja mora zagotavljati zadostno in enakomerno porazdeljeno prezračevanje z zmogljivostjo najmanj 61 m3/h na 100 kg pra�ičev.
Where the total journey time for pigs weighing 40 kg and over exceeds eight hours, the rules set out in point 2 of section A in Annex 3 shall also be complied with in so far as a mechanical ventilation system is used.
Če celotni čas prevoza pra�ičev, težjih od 40 kg, presega osem ur, morajo biti v primeru uporabe sistema mehanskega prezračevanja izpolnjene tudi zahteve iz določb priloge 3(A), točka 2.
There must at all times be sufficient space inside the animals’ compartment and at each of its levels to ensure that there is adequate ventilation above the pigs where they are in a naturally standing position and their natural movements must not be inhibited under any circumstances.
V ogradah, kjer so zaprti pra�iči, mora biti na vsaki plo�čadi vedno dovolj prostora, da je omogočeno dobro kroženje zraka nad pra�iči, ko stojijo v običajnem položaju, pri čemer njihovo naravno gibanje v nobenem primeru ne sme biti ovirano.
Where the total journey time for pigs weighing 40 kg and over exceeds eight hours, means of transport shall be used which — for example by means of a raisable roof combined with movable decks or similar construction — ensure at all times that an internal inspection height of at least 140 cm can be established on each deck — measured from the highest point on the floor to the lowest point on the ceiling (e.g. the underside of any crossbeams or struts).
Če čas prevoza pra�ičev, težjih od 40 kg, presega osem ur, mora biti vozilo za prevoz prirejeno tako, da je v vsakem trenutku na vsaki plo�čadi mogoče vzpostaviti svetlo vi�ino za pregledovanje, ki zna�a najmanj 140 cm, merjeno od najvi�je točke tal do najnižje točke stropa (na primer spodnji del preklade ali podpornika), na primer s pomočjo premične strehe in dvižnih mostov ali s pomočjo podobne konstrukcije.
When setting the internal inspection height at 140 cm, there shall still be at least the height referred to in subparagraph 1 on the upper decks in the case of the transport of animals on several decks.’
Pri vzpostavitvi svetle vi�ine za pregledovanje, ki zna�a 140 cm, mora pri prevozu živali na večih plo�čadih svetla vi�ina drugih plo�čadi �e vedno izpolnjevati zahteve iz odstavka 1.“
Paragraph 3 of Decree No 734 contains the following transitional provisions:
Člen 3 odloka �t. 734 vsebuje te prehodne določbe:

The decision for reference makes it clear that Danske Svineproducenter is a professional body which looks after the interests of Danish pig producers.
Iz predložitvene odločbe izhaja, da je Danske Svineproducenter poklicno združenje, ki skrbi za interese danskih rejcev pra�ičev.
It represents approximately 1 700 members, whose overall production represents two thirds of Danish pig production.
Združuje približno 1700 rejcev, katerih skupna reja zna�a dve tretjini danske reje pra�ičev.
On 14 May 2005, Danske Svineproducenter brought an action against the Justitsministeriet before the Vestre Landsret (Western Regional Court), arguing that the Danish legislation transposing Directive 91/628, as amended by Decree No 734, is
Danske Svineproducenter je 14. maja 2005 pri Vestre Landsret (zahodno regionalno sodi�če) proti Justitsministeriet vložilo tožbo, v kateri je zatrjevalo, da ureditev, s katero je bila v dansko pravo prenesena Direktiva 91/628, kot je bila spremenjena z odlokom �t.
Danske Svineproducenter takes the view, in particular, that various requirements laid down by Decree No 734, which had not yet been promulgated when it brought its action, are unlawful.
734, ki do dneva vložitve njegove tožbe �e ni bil razgla�en, nezakonite.
Taking the view that the decision in the case turns on the interpretation of certain provisions of Directive 91/628, the Vestre Landsret decided to stay the proceedings and to refer the following questions to the Court for a preliminary ruling:
Ker je Vestre Landsret menilo, da je re�itev spora odvisna od razlage nekaterih določb Direktive 91/628, je prekinilo odločanje in Sodi�ču v predhodno odločanje predložilo ta vpra�anja:
The application to have the oral procedure reopened
Predlog za ponovno odprtje ustnega postopka
By letter of 27 December 2007, the applicant in the main proceedings requested that the oral procedure be reopened, submitting that photographs had been produced before the Court just before the hearing by the Danish Government, which did not allow it to defend its interests in relation to that production of evidence, which it describes as unfair, late and tendentious.
Tožeča stranka v postopku v glavni stvari je z dopisom z dne 27. decembra 2007 predlagala ponovno odprtje ustnega postopka, pri čemer je trdila, da je danska vlada tik pred obravnavo Sodi�ču posredovala fotografije, zaradi česar ni mogla braniti svojih interesov v zvezi s to predložitvijo dokazov, za katero meni, da je neprimerna, prepozna in tendenciozna.
In addition, it argues that the failure to send the annexes attached to its written observations to the other parties which lodged written observations constitutes a breach of its rights of defence.
Poleg tega je navedla, da se je s tem, ko se priloge k njenim pisnim stali�čem niso posredovale drugim zainteresiranim osebam, ki so predložile pisna stali�ča, kr�ila njena pravica do obrambe.
Furthermore, Article 234 EC establishes direct cooperation between the Court of Justice and the national courts and tribunals by means of a non-contentious procedure excluding any initiative by the parties, during which the parties are free to
Poleg tega člen 234 ES vzpostavlja neposredno sodelovanje med Sodi�čem in nacionalnimi sodi�či v okviru postopka, katerega neposredni namen ni re�itev spora, ki ne poteka na predlog strank in med katerim lahko stranke predložijo pisna stali�ča
It is for the national court or tribunal to ascertain the facts which have given rise to the dispute and to establish the consequences which they have for the judgment which it is required to deliver (see, to that effect, Case 17/81 Pabst & Richarz [1982] ECR 1331, paragraph 12, and Case C-291/05 Eind [2007] ECR I-10719, paragraph 18). 24
V tem okviru je dolžnost nacionalnega sodi�ča, da ugotovi dejstva, ki so pripeljala do spora, in da iz tega izpelje posledice za odločitev, ki jo je dolžno izreči (glej v tem smislu zlasti sodbi z dne 29. aprila 1982 v zadevi Pabst & Richarz, 17/81, Recueil, str. 1331, točka 12, in z dne 11. decembra 2007 v zadevi Eind, C-291/05, ZOdl., str. I-10719, točka 18). 24
With regard to the disputed production of photographs before the Court, suffice it to point out that, at the meeting held between the Judges and lawyers prior to commencement of the hearing, the Court informed the latter that those photographs had not been forwarded to the Judges and that their production at the hearing would not be permitted.
Glede očitka v zvezi s predložitvijo fotografij Sodi�ču zado�ča navedba, da je Sodi�če na sestanku sodnikov in odvetnikov pred začetkom obravnave odvetnike obvestilo, da navedene fotografije niso bile posredovane sodnikom in da njihova predložitev na obravnavi ne bo dovoljena.
With regard to the argument relating to the failure to send the documents annexed to the observations of the applicant in the main proceedings, those observations were notified, without those documents in view of their volume, to the other parties which had submitted written observations.
Glede trditve v zvezi z neposredovanjem dokumentov, priloženih stali�čem tožeče stranke v postopku v glavni stvari, je treba ugotoviti, da so bila ta stali�ča glede na obseg navedenih dokumentov drugim zainteresiranim osebam, ki so predložile pisna stali�ča, posredovana brez teh dokumentov.
It is also common ground that the latter were
Dejstvo je tudi, da so druge
DANSKE SVINEPRODUCENTER aware of those annexes, since the list thereof formed the final part of those observations, and that consequently it was possible for those other parties to consult them at the Court Registry or to request their transmission.
DANSKE SVINEPRODUCENTER zainteresirane osebe vedele za obstoj teh prilog, saj je bil njihov podroben seznam naveden v zadnjem delu navedenih stali�č, in da bi se torej lahko z njihovo vsebino seznanile v sodnem tajni�tvu Sodi�ča ali pa zahtevale, naj se jim posredujejo.
Having regard to the foregoing, the application made by the applicant in the main proceedings to have the oral procedure reopened must be dismissed.
Glede na vse, kar je bilo navedeno zgoraj, ni mogoče ugoditi predlogu tožeče stranke v postopku v glavni stvari za ponovno odprtje ustnega postopka.
In that regard, the Court has already held that the main objective pursued by Directive 91/628 is the protection of animals during transport (see, to that effect, Joined Cases C-37/06 and C-58/06 Viamex Agrar Handel and ZVK [2008] ECR I-69, paragraph 29).
V zvezi s tem je treba navesti, da je Sodi�če že presodilo, da je glavni cilj Direktive 91/628 za�čita živali med prevozom (glej v tem smislu sodbo z dne 17. januarja 2008
2008 — CASE C-491/06 in the preamble to Directive 91/628 and the fourth recital in the preamble to Directive 95/29, that Directive 91/628 was adopted within the framework of the Community policy of eliminating technical barriers to trade in live animals and to allow the market organisations to operate smoothly.
I-69, točka 29). Vendar pa je bila Direktiva 91/628, kot izhaja iz druge uvodne izjave Direktive 91/628 in iz četrte uvodne izjave Direktive 95/29, sprejeta v okviru politike Skupnosti za odstranitev tehničnih ovir, ki omejujejo trgovino z živimi živalmi, in za nemoteno delovanje zadevnih tržnih organizacij.
In addition, it follows from the fourth recital in the preamble to Directive 95/29 that Directive 91/628 is intended to harmonise travelling times and rest periods, feeding and watering intervals, and space allowances, for certain types of animal.
Poleg tega iz četrte uvodne izjave Direktive 95/29 izhaja, da je namen Direktive 91/628 doseči uskladitev potovalnega časa in časa počitkov, presledkov za krmljenje in napajanje in zahtevanega prostora za nekatere vrste živali.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that, although Directive 91/628 includes some precise provisions, others are general (see, to that effect, Case C-350/97 Monsees [1999] ECR I-2921, paragraph 26).
Vendar pa je treba ugotoviti, da so določene določbe navedene direktive natančne, druge pa splo�ne (glej v tem smislu sodbo z dne 11. maja 1999 v zadevi Monsees, C-350/97, Recueil, str. I-2921, točka 26).
In those circumstances, Directive 91/628 must be transposed in compliance with the objectives which it pursues and the margin of discretion available to the Member States depends on the level of precision of the provisions of that directive.
V teh okoli�činah je treba pri prenosu Direktive 91/628 spo�tovati njene cilje, pri čemer je diskrecijska pravica držav članic odvisna od natančnosti določb te direktive. Poleg tega je treba pri navedenem prenosu strogo spo�tovati načelo sorazmernosti.
Moreover, that transposition must be carried out in strict accordance with the principle of proportionality.
Sodi�če je v zvezi s tem zlasti presodilo, da morajo to načelo sorazmernosti, ki je splo�no načelo prava Skupnosti in ki ga je sodna praksa Sodi�ča večkrat potrdila zlasti na področju skupne kmetijske politike (glej zlasti sodbi z dne 12. julija 2001 v zadevi Jippes in drugi, C-189/01, Recueil, str.
In that regard the Court has held, in particular, that the principle of proportionality, which is a general principle of Community law and has been affirmed on numerous occasions in the caselaw of the Court of Justice, in particular with regard to the common agricultural policy (see, inter alia, Case C-189/01 Jippes and Others [2001] ECR I-5689, paragraph 81, and Case C-310/04 Spain v Council [2006] ECR I-7285, paragraph 97), must be observed as such both by the Community legislature and by the national legislatures and courts which apply Community law (see, to that effect, Viamex Agrar Handel and ZVK, paragraph 33).
I-5689, točka 81, in z dne 7. septembra 2006 v zadevi Španija proti Svetu, C-310/04, ZOdl., str. I-7285, točka 97), spo�tovati tako zakonodajalec Skupnosti kot tudi nacionalni zakonodajalci in sodniki, ki uporabljajo pravo Skupnosti (glej v tem smislu zgoraj navedeno sodbo Viamex Agrar Handel in ZVK, točka 33).
Accordingly, it is inherent in the transposition procedure that the Member States were required to comply with the main objective of protecting animals during transport without hindering the attainment of the other objectives pursued by Directive 91/628.
Za postopek prenosa je torej značilno, da so države članice morale spo�tovati glavni cilj za�čite živali med prevozom, ne da bi onemogočile uresničitev drugih ciljev Direktive 91/628.
It is in the light of those comments that it is necessary to assess whether national measures such as those at issue in the main proceedings give full effect to the provisions of Directive 91/628, in accordance with the objectives which it pursues and with the principle of proportionality.
Na podlagi teh ugotovitev je treba preučiti, ali nacionalni ukrepi, kot so ti v postopku v glavni stvari, zagotovljajo poln učinek določb Direktive 91/628 v skladu z njenimi cilji in načelom sorazmernosti.
By its first and second questions, which can be considered together, the national court asks whether the provisions of point 2(b) of Title A in Chapter I and of the third indent of point 48(3) of Chapter VII of the annex to Directive 91/628 are to be interpreted as meaning that they permit a Member State to introduce:
Predložitveno sodi�če s prvim in drugim vpra�anjem, ki ju je treba obravnavati skupaj, spra�uje, ali je treba določbe poglavja I, naslov A, točka 2(b), in poglavja VII, točka 48, odstavek 3, tretja alinea, priloge k Direktivi 91/628 razlagati tako, da omogočajo, da država članica uvede:
— national transitional rules under which, in the case of the transport of pigs weighing from 40 kg to 110 kg where the journey time exceeds eight hours, there must be an internal height in respect of each deck — measured from the highest point on the floor to the lowest point on the ceiling — of at least 100 cm where a mechanical ventilation system is used;
– prehodno nacionalno ureditev, v skladu s katero mora biti, kadar čas prevoza pra�ičev s težo od 40 kg do 110 kg presega osem ur, prostor med vsako plo�čadjo vozila – merjeno od najvi�je točke tal do najnižje točke stropa – vsaj 100 cm v primeru uporabe sistema mehanskega prezračevanja;
— national rules under which, in the case of the transport of pigs weighing 40 kg and over where the total journey time exceeds eight hours, means of transport must be used which ensure at all times that an internal inspection height of at least 140 cm can be established in respect of each deck, whereas the internal height of the other decks in the case of the transport of animals on several decks must be at least 92 cm where the pigs being transported weigh on average 100 kg and where a mechanical ventilation system is used.
– nacionalno ureditev, v skladu s katero je treba, če je celotno trajanje prevoza dalj�e od osmih ur, v primeru prevoza pra�ičev s težo 40 kg ali več, obvezno uporabljati prevozno sredstvo, ki omogoča, da je v vsakem trenutku na vsaki plo�čadi na voljo točka za pregledovanje z minimalno vi�ino 140 cm, medtem ko mora biti pri prevozu pra�ičev s povprečno težo 100 kg v več plo�čadih, ko se uporablja sistem mehanskega prezračevanja, minimalna vi�ina vsake od plo�čadi 92 cm.
It is appropriate to note that the provisions of Directive 91/628 require the Member States to adopt minimum rules ensuring that, during transport by road, pigs have sufficient space, in terms of surface, height and ventilation, requirements which are more stringent in the case of journeys lasting more than eight hours.
Treba je navesti, da morajo države članice v skladu z določbami Direktive 91/628 sprejeti minimalna pravila, ki zagotovljajo, da imajo pra�iči med prevozom po cesti na voljo prostor zadostne povr�ine in vi�ine ter zadostno prezračevanje, pri čemer morajo biti v primeru prevoza, ki traja več kot osem ur, te zahteve strožje.
Article 5(A)(1)(b) of Directive 91/628 requires the Member States to ensure that any natural or legal person transporting animals for profit transports animals covered by that directive using means of transport meeting the requirements laid down in the annex thereto.
Države članice morajo namreč v skladu s členom 5(A), točka 1(c), Direktive 91/628 zagotoviti, da vsak prevoznik za prevoz živali, na katere se nana�a ta direktiva, uporablja prevozna sredstva, ki zagotavljajo skladnost z zahtevami Skupnosti v zvezi z dobrim počutjem med prevozom in zlasti z zahtevami, določenimi v prilogi k navedeni direktivi, in tistimi, ki se določijo v skladu s členom 13(1) te direktive.
Article 3(1)(aa) of Directive 91/628 provides that the Member States must ensure that, inter alia, space allowances (loading densities) for animals at least comply with the figures laid down in Chapter VI of that annex.
Člen 3(1)(aa) Direktive 91/628 med drugim določa, da morajo države članice zagotoviti, da se zahtevan prostor (gostota nakladanja) za živali sklada najmanj s �tevilčnimi podatki, navedenimi v poglavju VI te priloge.
Chapter VI, which, in section D of point 47, fixes the loading density for pigs, states that, for transport by road, all pigs must at least be able to lie down and stand up in their natural position.
V tem poglavju VI, ki v točki 47, naslov D, določa gostoto nakladanja za pra�iče, je navedeno, da je pri prevozu po cesti vsem pra�ičem treba zagotoviti najmanj toliko prostora, da se lahko uležejo in stojijo v naravnem položaju.
Section D also provides that, in order to comply with those minimum requirements, the loading density for pigs of around 100 kg should not exceed 235 kg/m2.
Dalje je določeno, da zaradi skladnosti s temi minimalnimi zahtevami gostota nakladanja za pra�iče, težke približno 100 kg, ne sme biti večja od 235 kg/m2.
That provision further states that the breed, size and physical condition of the pigs may mean that the minimum required surface area has to be increased; a maximum increase of 20% may also be required depending on the meteorological conditions and the journey time.
Poleg tega se lahko v skladu s to določbo navedena minimalna povr�ina poveča glede na pasmo, velikost in fizično kondicijo pra�ičev, pri čemer je glede na vremenske pogoje in čas na poti lahko potrebno povečanje za največ 20 %.
It must also be pointed out that Directive 91/628 merely provides, in point 2(b) of Title A of Chapter I of its annex, that the means of transport must provide sufficient space inside the compartment and at each of its levels to ensure that there is adequate ventilation above the animals when they are in a naturally standing position, without on any account hindering their natural movement.
Poleg tega je treba poudariti, da Direktiva 91/628 v poglavju I, naslov A, točka 2(b) priloge določa le, da mora biti živalim znotraj ograd in na vsaki plo�čadi prevoznega sredstva zagotovljena dovolj velika talna povr�ina in vi�ina, ki zagotavlja primerno kroženje zraka, ko stojijo v naravnem položaju, ne da bi kar koli oviralo njihovo naravno gibanje.
The third indent of point 48(3) in Chapter VII of that annex permits the transport of animals where the journey time is more than eight hours only if the means of transport meets additional conditions, in particular that of direct access to the animals.
V skladu s poglavjem VII, točka 48, odstavek 3, tretja alinea, te priloge je prevoz živali, kadar čas na poti presega osem ur, dovoljen le pod pogojema, da prevozno sredstvo izpolnjuje dodatne zahteve in zlasti da je do živali mogoč neposreden dostop.
Accordingly, since the Community legislature did not itself lay down, in Directive 91/628, the precise height of the compartments, the Member States must be recognised as having a clear margin of discretion to adopt national provisions which allow the provisions of that directive to have their full effect, in accordance with the objectives pursued by it and in compliance with Community law.
Ker zakonodajalec Skupnosti natančne vi�ine ograd ni določil sam v Direktivi 91/628, je torej državam članicam treba priznati določeno diskrecijsko pravico zaradi sprejetja nacionalnih predpisov, ki omogočajo zagotovitev polnega učinka določb te direktive v skladu z njenimi cilji in pravom Skupnosti.
With regard to the provisions at issue in the main proceedings, as is apparent from the observations submitted to the Court in the written and oral procedure, the Kingdom of Denmark sought to convert the very general requirements regarding compartment height laid down in Directive 91/628 to precise requirements in its national law.
Iz pisnih stali�č, ki so bila Sodi�ču predložena v okviru pisnega in ustnega postopka, glede predpisov v postopku v glavni stvari izhaja, da je Kraljevina Danska v nacionalnem pravu zelo splo�ne zahteve glede vi�ine ograd iz Direktive 91/628 želela spremeniti v natančno določene obveznosti.
