The Commission also demanded the phasing out of the guarantee, allowing CDC to adjust its operational and legal environment to operate under the same conditions as its competitors.These decisions of the Commission contributed to restoring fair competition in the banking sector.
Komisija je prav tako zahtevala postopno ukinitev garancije, pri čemer je dovolila CDC, da prilagodi svoje poslovno in pravno okolje za poslovanje pod enakimi pogoji kot njeni konkurenti.Te odločitve Komisije so prispevale k ponovni vzpostavitvi poštene konkurence v bančnem sektorju.
When is State aid allowed?
Kdaj je državna pomoč dovoljena?
One of the positive elements of the project was the substantial increase of research personnel as well as the increase in R & D expenditure, thereby contributing to European Council targets to increase R & D spending by industry and Member States to foster the competitiveness of European industry. e EC Treaty contains a list of possible circumstances in which State aid may be granted.
Pogodba ES vsebuje seznam možnih okoliščin, v katerih se lahko državna pomoč odobri. Evropska komisija je z leti razvila jasen okvir za ukrepe državnih pomoči, ki so v skupnem interesu Evropske unije in torej dovoljeni.
Several European Councils have declared that training is an important factor to make the European economy more competitive on world markets.

Pomoč je bila odobrena pod pogojem, da družba sprejme tako imenovane kompenzacijske ukrepe, kot je na primer odprodaja podjetij v različnih sektorjih dejavnosti skupine.
Even the jobs maintained at the company which receives the State aid are often uncere Commission has adopted guidelines reflecting an increased focus on large companies that trade across the EU. ese companies usually have large market shares and State support in their favour affects competition and trade more significantly. e new guidelines introduce stricter rules concerning the efforts big beneficiaries have to make to finance their own survival.
Ti kompenzacijski ukrepi so bili potrebni za zagotovitev, da pomoč za prestrukturiranje ne bi povzročila znatne škode konkurentom, ki poslujejo brez državne pomoči, in za ponovno vzpostavitev poštene konkurence v prometnem in energetskem sektorju.
For example, large companies should in the future carry around 50 % of the restructuring cost themselves.

STATE AID TO ALSTOMThe European Commission approved restructuring aid by the French government to Alstom, a group with a wide range of production activities mainly in the transport and energy sectors.
Najbolj sporne vrste državnih pomoči, ki so predmet temeljite preiskave Evropske komisije, so pomoč za reševanje in prestrukturiranje, finančne transakcije med državo in njenimi javnimi podjetji, ki predstavljajo pomoč, in pomoč podjetjem v določenih občutljivih sektorjih, kot so jeklarstvo, ladjedelništvo in motorna vozila.
The aid was approved on the condition that the company adopts so-called compensatory measures, such as selling off businesses in various sectors of the group’s activities.These compensatory measures were necessary to ensure that the restructuring aid would not cause substantial harm to competitors operating without State aid and to restore fair competition in the transport and energy sectors.
Zlasti pomoč za reševanje in prestrukturiranje podjetij v finančnih težavah lahko podjetju na robu stečaja omogoči, da preživi, običajno na škodo konkurentov in njihovih zaposlenih.
Aid which does not contribute to any of the commonly accepted objectives of the European Union cannot be allowed.
Celo delovna mesta, ki se ohranijo v podjetju, ki prejema državno pomoč, so pogosto negotova.
e most controversial types of State aid, which are subject to an in-depth investigation by the European Commission, are rescue and restructuring aid, financial transactions between the State and its public companies resulting in aid and aid to companies in certain sensitive sectors such as steel, shipbuilding and motor vehicles.
Komisija je sprejela smernice, ki se v večji meri osredotočajo na velika podjetja, ki trgujejo po vsej EU.
In particular, aid for the rescue and restructuring of companies in financial difficulties may allow a company on the verge of bankruptcy to stay in

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AID TO MOTOROLA, PHILIPS AND ST MICROELECTRONICSIn 2003, the Commission approved aid in the amount of EUR 293 million for a joint research project of the three companies to develop new technology for first prototypes of integrated circuits with nano-metric dimensions.
Leta 2003 je Komisija odobrila pomoč v višini 293 milijonov EUR za skupni raziskovalni projekt treh podjetij za razvoj nove tehnologije za prve prototipe integriranih vezij z nanometričnimi razsežnostmi.
The aid was approved for research in all stages, i.e. fundamental, pre-competitive and industrial

Kako Evropska komisija nadzira državno pomoč?
is not large enough to have an effect on trade between Member States. is simplification also allows the Commission to focus on more important cases.
Ocena stanja na področju državnih pomoči
Generally, EU Member States are obliged to inform the European Commission about State aid plans by means of a notification prior to their implementation.
Na splošno so države članice EU dolžne obvestiti Evropsko komisijo o načrtovani državni pomoči s priglasitvijo pred njeno izvršitvijo.
It is only after the approval of the aid that the Member State is allowed to put it into effect. ect.
Šele po njeni odobritvi lahko država članica pomoč izvrši.
It only makes a formal investigation in contentious cases and publishes its decision to do so in the Official Journal and on the competition homepage (http: //europa.eu.int/comm/competition/ e procedure gives interested parties the opportunity to comment on the aid and enables the Commission to consider all aspects before reaching a final decision.
Ta postopek zagotavlja zainteresiranim strankam možnost, da predložijo pripombe na predlagano pomoč, Komisiji pa omogoča, da pred sprejetjem končne odločitve preuči vse vidike.
In some cases, however, a notification is not required and an information sheet shortly after the aid has been granted is sufficient. is simplification applies to areas where the Commission has considerable experience with certain types of State aid, which contribute to the overall development of the European economy.
Evropska komisija je prav tako pristojna za nadzor nad celotnim zneskom in naravo državne pomoči, ki jo dodeli vsaka država članica EU. Iz njene ocene izhaja, da so države članice v zadnjih letih znatno zmanjšale raven državnih pomoči in večino državnih pomoči preusmerile v spodbujanje dejavnosti v skupnem interesu Evropske unije.
Among these are aid to encourage training, employment, SMEs and R & D activities, particularly when carried out by SMEs. Aid of up to EUR 100 000 given to companies over a three-year period is not considered to be State aid as it e European Commission also investigates aid granted by EU Member States which has not been notified in advance (known as unlawful aid).
V nekaterih primerih pa priglasitev ni potrebna in zadošča obvestilo s podatki takoj po dodelitvi pomoči. Ta poenostavitev se nanaša na področja, na katerih ima Komisija precejšne izkušnje z določenimi vrstami državnih pomoči, ki prispevajo k splošnemu razvoju evropskega gospodarstva.
It might find out about unlawful aid from complaints by companies or individuals, or through reports in the media.
Med temi so pomoč za spodbujanje usposabljanja, zaposlovanja, MSP in dejavnosti razvoja in raziskav, zlasti če jih izvajajo MSP.
In addition to informing the Commission, third parties, usually e European Commission is also in charge of monitoring the overall amount and nature of State aid granted by each EU Member State.
Evropska komisija prav tako preveri pomoč države članice EU, ki ni bila vnaprej priglašena (znana tudi kot nezakonita pomoč).
Its analysis shows that Member States have reduced the level of State aid considerably in recent years and redirected most State aid to stimulate activities in the common interest of the European Unis positive development contributes to make the European economy more competitive and improves national markets as well
Za nezakonito pomoč lahko izve iz pritožb podjetij ali posameznikov ali iz sredstev javnega obveščanja. Poleg tega, da obvestijo Komisijo, lahko tretje stranke, običajno konkurenti, izpodbijajo ukrepe državne pomoči neposredno pred nacionalnimi sodišči.
SCI SYSTEMSIn the late 1990s, the Dutch authorities granted SCI Systems a generous aid package to build a factory for the assembly of PCs for Hewlett-Packard in Friesland.
V poznih devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja so nizozemski organi oblasti Sistemom SCI dodelili obsežen sveženj pomoči za gradnjo tovarne za sestavljanje osebnih računalnikov za Hewlett-Packard v Friziji.
In February 2001, the European Commission found that this aid broke the rules on regional investment aid.
Februarja 2001 je Evropska komisija ugotovila, da je ta pomoč kršila pravila o regionalni pomoči za naložbe.
These rules prevent authorities from having an expensive subsidy race to attract mobile investment projects and the jobs they could bring to their region.
Ta pravila organom oblasti preprečujejo, da bi organizirala draga tekmovanja s subvencijami, ki bi pritegnile mobilne investicijske projekte in delovna mesta, ki bi jih ti lahko prinesli v njihovo regijo.
Such races would be costly for taxpayers and undermine cohesion objectives because richer authorities could continuously outbid poorer ones.
Taka tekmovanja bi bila draga za davkoplačevalce in bi ogrozila kohezijska načela, ker bi lahko bogatejši organi oblasti vedno dajali boljše ponudbe kot revnejši.
In August 2002, the company paid back NGL 3.8 million (EUR 1.7 million) to the Dutch authorities.
Avgusta 2002 je podjetje vrnilo 3,8 milijona NLG (1,7 milijona EUR) nizozemskim organom oblasti.
What measures has the European Commission taken to improve its State aid control system?

of providing the Commission with the information it needs and of clarifying the required content for the Member States.
Kakšne ukrepe za izboljšanje svojega sistema za nadzor nad dodeljevanjem državnih pomoči je Evropska komisija sprejela?
On several occasions, the European Council has underlined the need to grant less but better targeted State aid in order to boost the European economye Commission has reacted to this demand by adopting a number of new instruments to accelerate and facilitate the granting of State aid where it would conform to EU objectives.
Zakaj se posebna pozornost posveča javnim storitvam, ki so se odprle za konkurenco?
Furthermore, enforcement of Commission decisions ordering the recovery of unlawful aid has been improved through the creation of a specialised unit to ensure strict e effective recovery is a necessary complement to the Commission’s power to control State aid, and Member States now have an increased incentive to implement recovery decisions.
Ob več priložnostih je Evropski svet poudaril potrebo po dodeljevanju manj, a bolj ciljno naravnane državne pomoči za spodbujanje evropskega gospodarstva. Komisija se je na to zahtevo odzvala s sprejetjem številnih novih instrumentov za pospešitev in olajšanje dodeljevanja državnih pomoči, kadar so te v skladu s cilji EU.
Why is particular attention paid to public services which have been opened up to competition?
Na primer, zmanjšale so se formalnosti v primerih, pri katerih je verjetno, da bo pomoč skladna z evropskim pravom in na splošno ne predstavlja težav (glej zgoraj „Kako Evropska komisija nadzira državno pomoč?“).
us, to ensure the uninterrupted provision of public services, companies in these sectors have to be compensated for costs incurred by assuming this responsibility.
To preiskavo je sprožila po pritožbi komercialne TV postaje, ki deluje na danskem trgu in ki je trdila, da je TV2 prejela državno pomoč za financiranje nalog javnih storitev.Preiskava je pokazala, da je celotni znesek državne pomoči, ki jo je prejela TV2, presegal stroške za izpolnitev njenega poslanstva kot javne storitve za 84,4 milijona EUR.
However, the possibility that companies use the compensation for activities which should be performed under normal competitive conditions means that this has to be watched closely under State aid rules.
TV2 je lahko preveč izplačano nadomestilo uporabila za financiranje svojih komercialnih dejavnosti, kar ji je dalo neupravičeno prednost pred konkurenti, ki niso prejeli državnih finančnih sredstev.
T E AID A
POMOČ
For example, formalities have been reduced in cases where the aid is likely to be in conformity with European law and generally does not pose problems (see above under ‘How does the European Commission monitor State aid?’ ).
Javne storitve (znane tudi kot storitve v splošnem gospodarskem interesu) so bistvenega pomena za pravilno delovanje gospodarstva, kakor tudi naše družbe. Zaradi tega je treba zajamčiti, da so javne storitve na voljo neprekinjeno in v zadostni meri.
In these cases, Member States need to inform the Commission after granting the aid as a procedure in the interest of transparency.
Kakor je omenjeno v prejšnjem poglavju o „Odpiranju trgov za konkurenco“, so mnoge od njih, kot so poštne in transportne storitve, elektroenergetika in telekomunikacije, zaradi liberalizacije doživele korenite spremembe in se soočajo s težkimi razmerami na konkurenčnem trgu.
TV2 could use the excess compensation to finance its commercial activities, unduly favouring it over competitors that did not receive State funding.
Očitna prednost obrazcev je, da Komisiji zagotavljajo informacije, ki jih potrebuje, državam članicam pa razjasnijo potrebno vsebino.
Another improvement is that the Commission now provides forms for notification and information. e forms have the clear advantage
Poleg tega je bilo izvrševanje odločb Komisije, ki nalagajo vračilo nezakonite pomoči, izboljšano z oblikovanjem specializirane enote za zagotavljanje
Public services (also known as services of general economic interest) are crucial to the proper functioning of the economy as well as our societyerefore, it has to be guaranteed that public services are available on a continuous and sufficient basis.
Zaradi tega je treba za zajamčenje neprekinjenega zagotavljanja javnih storitev podjetjem v tem sektorju nadomestiti stroške, ki nastanejo zaradi prevzemanja te odgovornosti.
As mentioned in the previous section on ‘Opening up markets
Vendar pa možnost, da podjetja uporabijo ta nadomestila za dejavnosti, ki bi morale biti izvajane po običajnih konkurenčnih pogojih, pomeni, da je treba uporabo

Določbe Pogodbe so bile dopolnjene s postopkovno uredbo (Uredba Sveta (ES) št. 659/1999) in izvedbeno uredbo (Uredba Komisije (ES) št. 794/2004).
e 10 new Member States which joined the European Union on 1 May 2004 previously had different traditions concerning State aid.
Deset novih držav članic, ki so se Evropski uniji pridružile 1. maja 2004, je pred tem imelo različne pristope na področju državnih pomoči.
However, since joining, they have had to comply fully with European State aid provisions. is has resulted in a drive for less and better targeted aid, which also helps the new Member States to integrate better into the internal market.
Od pristopa pa so morajo popolnoma upoštevati evropske določbe o državni pomoči. To se odraža v težnji po manj in bolje usmerjeni pomoči, ki prav tako prispeva k boljši integraciji novih držav članic na notranjem trgu.
As regards State aid measures in the new Member States which already existed before they joined the European Union, these measures continue to be applied without the risk of recovery until they are, where necessary, brought into line with EU State aid rules.
Kar se tiče ukrepov državne pomoči v novih državah članicah, ki so že obstajali pred njihovo pridružitvijo Evropski uniji, se ti ukrepi še naprej uporabljajo brez nevarnosti, da bo treba državno pomoč vrniti, dokler ne bodo, kjer je to potrebno, usklajeni s pravili EU o državni pomoči.
Article 87 contains the substantive rules governing State aid, namely the general principle that State aid is incompatible with the common market, as well as a list of possible exemption clauses.
Člen 87 vsebuje vsebinska pravila, ki urejajo državno pomoč, namreč splošno načelo, da državna pomoč ni združljiva s skupnim trgom, kakor tudi seznam določb o možnih izjemah.
The Commission has adopted a number of interpretative frameworks and guidelines clarifying how it applies the exemption clauses, thus ensuring a coherent application of State aid rules across all Member States and sectors of the industry.
Komisija je sprejela številne razlagalne okvire in smernice, v katerih pojasnjuje, kako uporablja določbe o izjemah, s čimer je zagotovila usklajeno uporabo pravil o državni pomoči po vseh državah članicah in sektorjih gospodarstva.

S čedalje večjo globalizacijo je vse več podjetij, združitev in kartelov mednarodnih. Posledica tega je, da lahko dejavnosti podjetij s sedežem zunaj EU vplivajo na konkurenco znotraj EU.
Almost all of them are members of forums such as the International Competition Network (ICN), which is an informal, worldwide network of competition authorities.
Zaradi tega je postalo mednarodno sodelovanje na področju konkurenčne politike bistvenega pomena.
With increasing globalisation, more and more companies, mergers and cartels are international.
Številna podjetja, ki niso iz EU, prodajajo svoje izdelke globalno, vključno v Evropski uniji, ki postaja eden od njihovih glavnih trgov.
As a result, the activities of companies based outside the EU may affect competition within the EU.
Zato morajo spoštovati pravila konkurence EU na enak način, kot morajo evropska podjetja spoštovati zakone drugih držav, ko poslujejo zunaj EU.
This has made international cooperation on competition policy essential.
Kako se zunaj EU obravnavajo ravnanja, ki ovirajo konkurenco?
International Competition Network: see www.internationalcompetition network.org is is why European competition authorities may take action if a cartel affects the EU market, even if the companies involved are based e same cartel may also be examined by competition authorities outside the EU.
Zato lahko evropski organi za konkurenco ukrepajo, če kartel vpliva na trg EU, celo ko imajo udeležena podjetja sedež zunaj EU. Isti kartel lahko prav tako obravnavajo organi, pristojni za konkurenco zunaj EU.
Many non-EU companies sell their products globally, including in the European Union, which tends to be one of their main marey must therefore respect EU competition rules in the same way that European companies must respect the laws of other countries when operating outside the EU.
Evropska komisija je prepričana, da imajo lahko organi za konkurenco po vsem svetu koristi od združevanja svojih izkušenj, in to je razlog, zakaj ima vodilno vlogo v ICN že od njenega nastanka. Čeprav je ICN nastala nedavno, je že izdala obsežno vrsto priporočil v sorazmeroma kratkem času.
How are practices which restrict competition dealt with outside the EU?
Še več, vse združitve, pri katerih gre za podjetja s skupnim prometom znotraj EU večjim od določene ravni, morajo biti priglašene Evropski komisiji v odobritev.
