Under the 1996 leniency notice, the Commission granted Entaco full exemption from the ne that would otherwise have been imposed for having informed the Commission of the existence of the market sharing agreements and providing decisive evidence without which they might not have been established.
Po obvestilu o prizanesljivosti iz leta 1996 je Komisija Entacu dodelila popolno izvzetje iz globe, ki bi bila drugače uvedena, ker je podjetje Komisijo obvestilo o obstoju sporazumov o delitvi trga in zagotovilo odločilne dokaze, brez katerih ti ne bi mogli biti sklenjeni.

During the period under investigation, the producers involved in the infringement controlled more than 80 % of the world market. e European producers concerned controlled close to 80 % of the EEA area.
Kar zadeva EGP je kartel industrije holin klorida deloval na dveh različnih, vendar tesno povezanih ravneh, na svetovni in evropski ravni.
As this took place more than ve years a er the North American producers had ended their participation in the infringement, no nes were imposed on the North American producers, Bioproducts, Chinook and DuCoa.
Na svetovni ravni so vsi proizvajalci, ki so predmet tega postopka, med junijem 1992 in aprilom 1994 sodelovali v protikonkurenčnih dejavnostih glede EGP.

Te dejavnosti so vključevale določanje in dviganje globalnih cen, razdeljevanje svetovnih trgov, nadzor dobaviteljev in predelovalcev ter izmenjavo poslovno občutljivih informacij.
A er the companies agreed in particular to surrender a sufficient number of take-off and landing slots at airports and to grant various other remedies to restore e ective competition on these routes, the Commission was in a position to clear this transaction (67).
Ko sta se družbi dogovorili zlasti o tem, da se bosta odpovedali zadostnemu številu vzletnih in pristajalnih stez na letališčih ter odobrili različne druge protiukrepe za vzpostavitev učinkovite konkurence na teh poteh, je Komisija ta posel lahko potrdila (67).
On 26 May, the Commission adopted a decision (69) imposing a ne of EUR 1.59 million on e Topps Company Inc and its European subsidiaries, Topps Europe Ltd, Topps International Ltd, Topps UK Ltd and Topps Italia SRL (Topps) for infringing Article 81(1) of the Treaty. e Topps group produces collectible products such as stickers or trading cards featuring soccer players or cartoon characters.
Komisija je 26. maja sprejela odločbo (69) o naložitvi globe 1,59 milijona EUR družbi e Topps Company Inc in njenim hčerinskim podjetjem, Topps Europe Ltd, Topps International Ltd, Topps UK Ltd in Topps Italia SRL („Topps“), zaradi kršitve člena 81(1) Pogodbe. Skupina Topps proizvaja zbirateljske proizvode, kot so nalepke ali kartice z nogometaši ali junaki iz risank.

BOX 4: RIGHTS MANAGEMENT MARKETS IN THE EU e development of a strong presence of the diversity of European music and European culture in the new Europe-wide online markets is of vital concern in the overall context of the Lisbon objectives. is means that a new dynamism is needed in marketing European music rights to the users of the rights who can expand European presence in those media while maintaining suitable conditions for the development of local content.
Spodbujanje velike raznovrstnosti evropske glasbe in kulture na novih vseevropskih internetnih trgih je v splošnem okviru lizbonskih ciljev izredno pomembno. To pomeni, da je potrebna nova dinamika pri trženju evropskih glasbenih pravic uporabnikom teh pravic, ki lahko razširijo evropsko navzočnost v teh medijih, ob ohranjanju ustreznih okoliščin za razvoj lokalnih vsebin.
As regards the application of competition rules to rights management services, anticompetitive restrictions in the sector, as well as competitive incentives for the e cient provision of such services, require special attention.
Kar zadeva uporabo pravil konkurence pri storitvah upravljanja pravic, zahtevajo protikonkurenčne omejitve v sektorju, pa tudi konkurenčne spodbude za učinkovito zagotavljanje teh storitev posebno pozornost.
e Commission has given some guidance in this area in its IFPI decision (1).
Komisija je na tem področju v svoji odločbi IFPI (1) predložila nekatere smernice.
Some of the principles reflected in that decision have been proven in the meantime in implementation and are now also applied quite generally when EU-wide licences for webcasting of music are issued by the members of IFPI concerning the rights they hold.
Medtem so bila z izvajanjem potrjena nekatera načela, ki se izražajo v tej odločbi, in se tudi zdaj precej na splošno uporabljajo, kadar člani IFPI izdajajo vseevropska dovoljenja za spletno predvajanje glasbe glede na pravice, ki jih imajo.

• However, the Commission cannot allow past restrictions to be perpetuated where they are no longer indispensable.
• Vendar Komisija ne more dovoliti, da se omejitve iz preteklosti še naprej ohranijo tam, kjer niso več nujno potrebne.
• Rights owners must be able to determine themselves the proper mix between individual rights management and collective management of their music rights.
• Lastniki pravic morajo biti sposobni določiti ustrezno mešanico med individualnim in kolektivnim upravljanjem svojih glasbenih pravic.
• Arrangements must not bundle unnecessarily rights management o erings.
• Ureditve ne smejo po nepotrebnem združevati ponudb za upravljanje pravic.
Belgian Architects’ Association (
Združenje belgijskih arhitektov (
Its most recent amendment, in June 2002, described it as a ‘guideline’ (indicatif/leidraad). e scale laid down the minimum fees due to an architect for services performed in independent practice in Belgium.
Zadnja sprememba iz junija 2002 je to lestvico opisala kot „okvirno“ (indicatif/leidraad). Lestvica je določala minimalne honorarje, ki jih je treba plačati arhitektu za individualne storitve, opravljene v Belgiji.
Furthermore, the Commission concluded that the association intended to coordinate its members’ behaviour in the market through its decisions laying down and amending the scale. e Commission also found that the scale was applied at least to some extent.
Poleg tega je Komisija sklenila, da je Združenje s svojimi odločbami o določitvi in spremembi lestvice poskušalo usklajevati vedenje svojih članov na trgu.
Although a decision xing or recommending minimum fees is by nature a very serious infringement, the Commission classified the infringement overall as serious in the light of the circumstances that the fee scale had probably not been applied
Dokazi, da je lestvica skušala omejiti konkurenco, so zajemali naslov in izjave v preambuli, ki so namerno zvenele kot zavezujoča pravila, dejstvo, da je Združenje 18 let pripravljalo in naokrog razpošiljalo standardno pogodbo, v kateri je bila edina možnost za določitev honorarjev sklicevanje na lestvico, ter dejstvo, da je delovanje Združenja presegalo obveščanje svojih članov, strank in sodišč.
In imposing a ne of EUR 100 000, the Commission regarded as a mitigating circumstance the fact that reasonable doubt may have existed on the part of the association as to whether its fee scale did indeed constitute an infringement before the Commission adopted its CNSD decision in 1993 (71).
Pri naložitvi globe 100 000 EUR je Komisija kot olajševalno okoliščino upoštevala dejstvo, da je na strani Združenja lahko obstajal upravičen dvom o tem, ali so njegove pristojbine dejansko pomenile kršitev, preden je Komisija leta 1993 sprejela svojo odločbo CNSD (71).
Furthermore, the Commission’s policy, set out in its report of 9 February 2004, is to encourage the national regulatory authorities and professional bodies to revise and amend their restrictive rules, and give them the opportunity to do so. e amount of the ne also reflects a gradual approach (72) by the Commission in ning anticompetitive practices in the professions.
Poleg tega je politika Komisije, določena v njenem poročilu z dne 9. februarja 2004, spodbuditi nacionalne regulativne organe in poklicna združenja k reviziji in spremembi njihovih omejevalnih pravil ter jim za to dati možnost. Znesek globe kaže tudi postopnost (72) Komisije pri kaznovanju protikonkurenčnih praks v poklicih.
Territorial restrictions are one of the key elements in a set of practices which perpetuate the partitioning of the European market and contribute to a lack of uidity in the sector.
Ozemeljske omejitve so eden ključnih elementov v sklopu praks, ki ohranjajo razdrobljenost evropskega trga in prispevajo k pomanjkanju pretočnosti v sektorju.

I – Protimonopolna zakonodaja – členi 81, 82 in 86 ES upoštevanju posebnosti evropskega sektorja plina in okoliščin primera se je Komisija vseeno odločila, da ne bo naložila glob.
Other case developments
Druge zadeve
One important set of cases concerns rights for sports events, where the Commission has taken a balanced line: ghting the concentrative and restrictive e ects of a marketing policy relying on broad and exclusive deals by a single seller on the one hand while taking into account possible e ciencies associated with the aggregation of content on the other.
Pomemben sklop primerov je povezan s pravicami za športne dogodke. Na tem področju je Komisija sprejela uravnotežen pristop: boj proti koncentracijskim in omejevalnim učinkom politike trženja, ki se na eni strani opira na široke in izključne posle enega prodajalca, medtem ko na drugi strani upošteva možno učinkovitost, povezano z združevanjem vsebin.
In the Bundesliga case, which concerns joint marketing of the media exploitation rights in respect of matches in the German rst and second national football divisions for men, the Commission considered that the exclusive selling of the commercial broadcasting rights by the league association could restrict competition between the clubs and companies in the rst and second divisions.
V primeru nemške nogometne lige Bundesliga, ki zadeva skupno trženje medijskih pravic v zvezi s tekmami v prvi in drugi nemški nacionalni nogometni ligi za moške, je Komisija menila, da bi lahko izključna prodaja komercialnih pravic radiodifuznega oddajanja ligaškega združenja omejila konkurenco med klubi ter podjetji v prvi in drugi ligi.
Following notification of a preliminary assessment earlier in 2004, the league

Postopki v zvezi s sistemom Eurovision so se nadaljevali s preiskavo o ugotavljanju dejstev glede nekaterih vidikov skupne nabave in delitve športnih programov med javnimi radijskimi in televizijskimi postajami – člani Evropske zveze za radiodifuzijo, vključno s pravicami za olimpijske igre leta 2010/2012.
EBU’s proposals and suggestions to ensure that the Eurovision system is compatible with the EU competition rules will need to follow the Courts’ guidance in the case (78).

The term actually refers to the most favoured supplier principle used in the agreements.
Pojem je dejansko povezan z načelom ponudnika z največjimi ugodnostmi, ki se uporablja v sporazumih.
Report on competition policy 2004 — Volume 1 right to enjoy the most favourable terms agreed between a pay television company and any one of them.
Klavzule o državi z največjimi ugodnostmi so dale studiem pravico do uživanja najugodnejših pogojev, dogovorjenih med družbo naročniške televizije in katerim koli od njih.
According to the Commission’s preliminary assessment, the cumulative e ect of MFN clauses was an alignment of the prices paid to the studios as any increase agreed with one studio triggered a right to a parallel price increase for the other studios. e Commission considers that such a way of setting prices is at odds with the basic principle of price competition.
Po Komisijini predhodni oceni je bil kumulativni učinek klavzul o državi z največjimi ugodnostmi uskladitev cen, plačanih studiem, saj je katero koli zvišanje, dogovorjeno z enim studiem, sprožilo pravico do vzporednega zvišanja za druge studie. Komisija meni, da je takšno določanje cen v nasprotju z osnovnim načelom cenovne konkurence.
To fully appraise the speci cs of the market, and tackle the existing and potential problems relating to content access for 3G, the Commission initiated on 30 January a sector inquiry into the sale of sports rights for use over 3G networks, jointly with the EFTA Surveillance Authority.

BOX 5: MOTOR VEHICLE DISTRIBUTION AND REPAIR
OKVIR 5: DISTRIBUCIJA IN POPRAVILO MOTORNIH VOZIL
During 2004, the Commission continued to monitor the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1400/2002 and to provide assistance to interested parties as to its interpretation.
Komisija je med letom 2004 še naprej spremljala izvajanje Uredbe (ES) št. 1400/2002 in zagotavljala pomoč zainteresiranim strankam v zvezi z njeno razlago.
Consolidation in the dealer networks has continued, but many dealers whose contracts were terminated as a result of network reorganisations have been able to take advantage of the block exemption and remain on the market as authorised repairers. ere have also been new investments in improved distribution and repair facilities.
Konsolidacija mrež trgovcev se je nadaljevala, vendar je veliko trgovcev, katerih pogodbe so bile prekinjene zaradi reorganizacij mrež, lahko izkoristilo prednost skupinske izjeme in ostalo na trgu v vlogi pooblaščenih serviserjev. Prišlo je tudi do novih naložb v boljšo opremo za distribucijo in popravila.
It is clear, however, that such developments can provide no more than a preliminary indication as regards the e ects of the new block exemption, the market e ects of which can only be fully assessed over the longer term.
Vendar je jasno, da ti dogodki ne morejo biti več kot le predhodni pokazatelj za učinke nove skupinske izjeme, katere tržni učinki se lahko v celoti ocenijo samo na dolgi rok.
In line with its duty to monitor the operation of Regulation (EC) No 1400/2002 on a regular basis, the Commission carried out an in-depth monitoring exercise of the systems put in place by car and truck manufacturers to allow independent operators to access repair-related technical information.
Komisija je v skladu s svojo dolžnostjo za redno spremljanje delovanja Uredbe (ES) št. 1400/2002 izvedla poglobljeno spremljanje sistemov, ki so jih uvedli proizvajalci avtomobilov in tovornjakov, da bi neodvisnim operaterjem omogočili dostop do tehničnih informacij, povezanih s popravilom.
Moreover, it continued to monitor car price developments across the EU, issuing two reports in February and July. e latter of these covered the rst six months following the entry into force of the new regulation, and for the rst time contains data covering all 25 Member States (see below for details).
Poleg tega je še naprej spremljala razvoj cen avtomobilov po vsej EU ter izdala dve poročili, februarja in julija. Zadnje je zajemalo prvih šest mesecev po začetku veljavnosti nove uredbe in prvič vsebuje podatke o vseh 25 državah članicah (o podrobnostih glej spodaj).
Furthermore, over the period covered by this report, the Commission refocused its enforcement activities on certain cases that raise important competition issues. ese include problems concerning authorised and independent repairers’ access to OEM’s and competing spare parts, the possible existence of artificial barriers to entry to the authorised repair networks, as well as alleged restrictions on dealers’ ability to sell motor vehicles of competing makes.
Poleg tega je Komisija v obdobju, ki ga pokriva to poročilo, svoje dejavnosti izvrševanja usmerila na določene primere, ki sprožajo pomembna vprašanja o konkurenci. Ta zadevajo težave v zvezi z dostopom pooblaščenih in neodvisnih serviserjev do rezervnih delov proizvajalca originalne opreme in tekmecev, mogoč obstoj umetnih ovir za vstop v mreže pooblaščenih serviserjev, pa tudi domnevne omejitve trgovcev pri prodaji motornih vozil konkurenčnih znamk.
While these issues are still being examined within the framework of ongoing investigations, the Commission stated its position in a case concerning Porsche’s distribution and servicing agreements, in which it clarified the application of the de minimis rule in the context of the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1400/2002 (see below).
Medtem ko se ta vprašanja znotraj okvira preiskav, ki še potekajo, še vedno preučujejo, je Komisija predstavila svoje stališče v primeru v zvezi s sporazumi družbe Porsche o distribuciji in servisiranju, s katerim je pojasnila uporabo pravila de minimis v okviru izvajanja Uredbe (ES) št. 1400/2002 (glej spodaj).
e entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 and the resulting empowerment of Member State courts and competition authorities has also provided an opportunity for the competition authorities to make full use of respective knowledge in the motor vehicle sector and to exploit cooperation mechanisms set
