Antitrust — Articles 81 and 82 EC
Protimonopolna pravila – člena 81 in 82 Pogodbe ES
On 2 April, the Commission adopted the White Paper on damages actions for breach of the EU antitrust rules (9), which is part of an ongoing Commission policy project.
Komisija je 2. aprila sprejela Belo knjigo o odškodninskih tožbah zaradi kršitve protimonopolnih pravil ES (9), ki je del stalnega projekta politike Komisije.
At the same time, more effective compensation mechanisms will inherently produce beneficial deterrent effects. e Commission also intends to draw up non-binding guidance for quantification of damages in antitrust cases in order to facilitate this calculation.
Hkrati bodo učinkovitejši mehanizmi za odškodnino sami po sebi imeli koristne odvračilne učinke. Komisija namerava pripraviti tudi nezavezujoča navodila za količinsko opredelitev odškodnine v protimonopolnih zadevah, da bi olajšala ta izračun.
In the field of anti-cartel enforcement, a new mechanism has been introduced which will allow the Commission to settle cartel cases by means of a simplified procedure. e settlements package, which entered into force on 1 July 2008, consists of a Commission

Če se družbe po pregledu dokazov iz spisa Komisije odločijo priznati svojo udeležbo v kartelu in če priznajo natančno naravo kršitve in odgovornost za to kršitev, se globa, ki se naloži strankam, zmanjša za 10 %.

A definitive penalty payment of EUR 899 million was imposed on Microso (19).
Microsoftu je bila izrečena dokončna denarna kazen v višini 899 milijonov EUR (19).
Microso was the first company in the history of competition policy in the EU to have periodic penalty payments imposed on it for noncompliance with a previous decision from the Commission. e Commission pursued its proceedings against Microso to ensure compliance with the 2004 decision and with the principles laid down in the judgment of the Court of First Instance (CFI) of 17 September 2007 with regard to the pricing and licensing terms for the interoperability information that Microso has to disclose as part of the remedy imposed by the 2004 decision (20).
Microso je bil prva družba v zgodovini politike konkurence v EU, ki ji je bila izrečena periodična denarna kazen zaradi neupoštevanja predhodne odločbe Komisije. Komisija je nadaljevala svoje postopke proti Microso u, da bi zagotovila izpolnjevanje odločbe iz leta 2004 in načel, ki so določena v sodbi Sodišča prve stopnje z dne 17. septembra 2007 glede pogojev oblikovanja cen in izdajanja licenc za informacije o interoperabilnosti, ki jih mora Microso razkriti v okviru korektivnih ukrepov iz odločbe iz leta 2004 (20).

V zadevi Intel je bilo 17. junija izdano dodatno obvestilo o nasprotovanju, v katerem je bilo potrjeno predhodno stališče Komisije, izraženo v obvestilu o nasprotovanju z dne 26. julija 2007, da je Intel prekršil pravila Pogodbe ES o zlorabi prevladujočega položaja (člen 82), da bi izključil svojega glavnega tekmeca, tj. družbo AMD, s trga centralnih procesnih enot x86.

On 7 October, the Commission adopted a decision (22) finding that the amendment of the Slovak Postal Act constituted an infringement of Article 86 in conjunction with Article 82 EC since it included into the reserved area (‘postal monopoly’) the delivery stage of hybrid mail services (23), a service which had previously been liberalised.
Komisija je 7. oktobra sprejela odločbo (22), v kateri je ugotovila, da je sprememba slovaškega poštnega zakona pomenila kršitev člena 86 v povezavi s členom 82

Since the Republic of Slovakia failed to inform the Commission about any measures undertaken to put an end to the infringement, the latter initiated an infringement procedure against the Republic of Slovakia for noncompliance with the decision of 7 October (24).
Ker Republika Slovaška ni obvestila Komisije o ukrepih, sprejetih za odpravo kršitve, je Komisija proti Republiki Slovaški sprožila postopek za ugotavljanje kršitev zaradi neupoštevanja odločbe z dne 7. oktobra (24).

V sporočilu je poudarjeno, da so korektivni ukrepi, ki ne vključujejo odsvojitve, sprejemljivi le takrat, kadar so po svojem učinku enakovredni odsvojitvi, ter da lahko težave pri nadzoru in tveganja v zvezi z neučinkovitostjo prispevajo k zavrnitvi takšnih korektivnih ukrepov.

A total of 118 decisions were approved without conditions under the normal procedure and a further 189 were cleared using the simplified procedure. ere were also 19 transactions cleared in Phase I, but subject to conditions. e Commission initiated 10 Phase II proceedings during the year. ere was a notable increase in the number of Article 8 decisions adopted (14, or 4.0 % of all notifications as opposed to 2.5 % the previous year) and in the number of Phase I (10, representing 2.9 % in 2008 as opposed to 1.2 % in 2007) and II withdrawals (3, amounting to 0.9 % in 2008 against 0.7 % in 2007).

At the beginning of 2008 the Commission’s focus in the state aid field was to continue with the implementation of the state aid action plan (SAAP) (28).
Na začetku leta 2008 se je Komisija na področju državnih pomoči posvetila zlasti nadaljnjemu izvajanju akcijskega načrta državnih pomoči (28).
However, the onset of the financial and economic crisis shi ed that focus and the Commission rapidly issued three communications on the role of state aid policy in the context of the crises and the recovery process.
Vendar je zaradi nastopa finančne in gospodarske krize preusmerila svojo pozornost ter v kratkem času izdala tri sporočila o vlogi politike državnih pomoči v okviru krize in o procesu okrevanja.
In the context of the financial crisis, the Commission first gave initial guidance on the application of state aid rules to measures taken in relation to financial institutions (29), which exceptionally were based on Article 87(3)(b) of the EC Treaty which allows for aid to remedy a serious disturbance in the economy of a Member State.
Komisija je v zvezi s finančno krizo najprej predložila začetna navodila o uporabi pravil o državni pomoči za ukrepe v zvezi s finančnimi institucijami (29), ki so izje- moma temeljila na členu 87(3)(b) Pogodbe ES, ki omogoča pomoč za odpravljanje resne motnje v gospodarstvu države članice.
Subsequently, the Commission supplemented and refined its guidance with a new communication on how Member States can recapitalise banks in the current financial crisis (30) to ensure adequate levels of lending to the rest of the economy and stabilise financial markets, whilst avoiding excessive distortions of competition.
Nato je Komisija dopolnila in izboljšala svoja navodila z novim sporočilom o tem, kako lahko države članice v trenutni finančni krizi dokapitalizirajo banke (30), da bi zagotovile ustrezne ravni posojil preostalemu gospodarstvu in stabilizirale finančne trge ter se hkrati izognile prekomernemu izkrivljanju konkurence.
In addition, the Commission adopted a new temporary framework (31) providing Member States with additional
Poleg tega je Komisija sprejela nov začasni okvir (31), da bi državam članicam zagotovila dodatne možnosti za obvladovanje učinkov pomanjkanja posojil na realno gospodarstvo.
