Member of the Commission in charge of competition policy
Članica Komisije, odgovorna za politiko konkurence
Improving the functioning of markets for the benefit of European consumers and businesses remains at the heart of the European project.
Izboljšanje delovanja trgov v korist evropskih potrošnikov in podjetij ostaja v jedru evropskega projekta.
In 2007, competition policy made a significant contribution to consumer welfare by tackling hard-core cartels.
V letu 2007 je politika konkurence s postopki proti močnim kartelom pomembno prispevala k blaginji potrošnikov.
Even though the fight against cartels is becoming increasingly global and challenging, we were nonetheless more successful in this fight than ever before.
Kljub temu, da postaja boj proti kartelom vse bolj globalen in pomeni vse večji izziv, smo bili v letu 2007 v tem boju uspešnejši kot kdaj koli prej.
Our leniency policy has proved a very potent weapon to encourage companies to own up to cartels.
Naša politika prizanesljivosti se je izkazala za zelo močno orožje pri spodbujanju podjetij k priznanju kartelov.
For example, in 2007, thanks to the leniency programme, the Commission condemned largescale lists and escalators cartels and fined their members over EUR 990 million.
Komisija je v letu 2007 zahvaljujoč programu prizanesljivosti obsodila velik kartel na področju dvigal in tekočih stopnic ter naložila vpletenim podjetjem globo v višini prek 990 milijonov EUR.
Members of a beer cartel in the Netherlands were also fined over EUR 273 million.
Obsodila je tudi pivovarski kartel na Nizozemskem, katerega člani so bili kaznovani z globo prek 273 milijonov EUR.
e Commission is continuing its efforts to spread competition culture beyond EU borders. is work involves taking a leadership role in forums such as the International Competition Network, bilateral agreements with other competition authorities and free trade agreements with the EU’s major trading partners.
Komisija si še naprej prizadeva za širjenje kulture konkurence prek meja EU. Ta dejavnost vključuje prevzemanje vodilne vloge v forumih, kot je Mednarodna mreža za konkurenco, ter v dvostranskih sporazumih z drugimi organi za konkurenco in prostotrgovinskih sporazumih z glavnimi trgovinskimi partnericami EU.
For example, during 2007, the Directorate-General for Competition and the Chinese administration had intense exchanges on the adoption of the new Chinese anti-monopoly law.
V letu 2007 so denimo med GD za konkurenco in kitajsko vlado potekali intenzivni pogovori o sprejetju novega kitajskega protimonopolnega zakona.
In doing this we are building an insurance policy for the citizens and businesses of Europe.
To pomeni zavarovalno polico za evropske državljane in podjetja.
We are helping to create a more level global playing field for EU firms and building up other competition regimes so they converge with our standards.
S tem pripomoremo k oblikovanju enakih pogojev za vsa podjetja iz EU ter razvijamo druge ureditve na področju konkurence, da se približajo našim standardom.
Competition policy is increasingly integrated with other policy work of the Commission.
Politika konkurence je vedno bolj vključena v druge politike Komisije.
For example it is also clear that modern industrial policy and modern competition policy work together effectively, mutually reinforcing the underlying strength of the European economy.
Jasno je na primer tudi to, da sodobna industrijska politika in sodobna politika konkurence učinkovito delujeta skupaj ter krepita temeljno moč evropskega gospodarstva.
Together they strengthen Europe’s ability to succeed in global markets.
Skupaj povečujeta zmožnost Evrope, da uspe na svetovnih trgih.
e recent review of the Lisbon strategy endorsed by the European Council mentions competition rules among the policies where the EU can contribute specific expertise which could be beneficial to its key partners. is is strongly linked to the need to ensure fair competition and a level playing field internationally.
V nedavnem pregledu lizbonske strategije, ki ga je potrdil Evropski svet, so pravila o konkurenci navedena med politikami, pri katerih lahko EU prispeva posebno strokovno znanje, ki bi lahko koristilo njenim ključnim partnerjem. To je močno povezano s potrebo po zagotovitvi poštene konkurence in enakih pogojev za vse po vsem svetu.
Financial services, telecoms, gas and electricity remain core target areas of all aspects of competition policy.
Trgi finančnih storitev, telekomunikacij, plina in električne energije ostajajo v vseh pogledih ključna ciljna področja politike konkurence.
Ensuring that these markets and other network sectors function well is not only significant for consumer purchasing power and choice but also for the EU’s overall competitiveness.
Zagotavljanje dobrega delovanja teh trgov in drugih mrežnih dejavnosti ni pomembno zgolj z vidika kupne moči in izbire potrošnikov, temveč tudi za konkurenčnost celotne EU.
For example, we imposed antitrust sanctions against anticompetitive practices in the payment services and card area to the benefit of individual consumers and merchants, while continuing the ongoing monitoring of the single European payments area implementation by the end of 2010.
Uvedli smo na primer protimonopolne kazni proti protikonkurenčnim praksam na področju plačilnih storitev in plačilnih kartic v korist posameznih potrošnikov in trgovcev, poleg tega pa še naprej spremljamo vzpostavitev enotnega evropskega plačilnega območja do konca leta 2010.
Antitrust fines were also imposed in the broadband sector against abuses which had deprived consumers of the benefits of price competition.
Protimonopolne kazni so bile naložene tudi v širokopasovnem sektorju, in sicer za zlorabe, zaradi katerih so bili potrošniki prikrajšani za cenovno konkurenčnost.
Likewise, the Commission made use of the EC Treaty prohibitions on restrictive business practices and abuses of dominant market positions (Articles 81 and 82) to improve the
Podobno je Komisija uporabila določbe Pogodbe ES o prepovedi ome-
Report on Competition Policy 2007 functioning of the gas and electricity markets.
Poročilo o politiki konkurence za leto 2007 jevalnih poslovnih ravnanj in zlorab prevladujočega položaja na trgu (člena 81 in 82) za izboljšanje delovanja trgov plina in električne energije.
Complementing the wider legislative Commission agenda, antitrust enforcement was able to ensure in one case that one incumbent stopped tying up excessive gas volumes for long periods, thereby reducing consumer choice and market entry by potentially more efficient competitors.
V enem primeru je protimonopolno ukrepanje, ki dopolnjuje širši zakonodajni program Komisije, omogočilo, da je eden od uveljavljenih ponudnikov prenehal dolgotrajno zadrževati presežne količine plina, s čimer je omejeval izbiro potrošnikov in preprečeval vstop potencialno učinkovitejših konkurentov na trg.
Companies must not be allowed to reverse the benefits for consumers of a more open internal market.
Podjetjem se ne sme dovoliti, da potrošnikom omejujejo koristi, ki jih prinaša bolj odprt notranji trg.
In June 2007, the Commission prohibited the proposed takeover of Aer Lingus by Ryanair. e statistics show that mergers are very rarely prohibited.
Junija 2007 je Komisija prepovedala predlagani Ryanairov prevzem družbe Aer Lingus. Statistični podatki kažejo, da se združitve zelo redko prepovejo.
However, the takeover at hand would have led to dramatically reduced choice for consumers and, as a result, the likelihood of lower quality and higher fares.
Ta prevzem pa bi izrazito omejil izbiro potrošnikov in posledično povečal verjetnost nižje kakovosti storitev in višjih cen prevozov.
Telecoms is a market demonstrating the value of competition policy and sector-specific regulation working in tandem to ensure that former monopolists do not use their dominant positions to exploit consumers or exclude competitors.
Telekomunikacije so trg, ki dokazuje, kako pomembno je povezovanje politike konkurence in sektorskih ureditev za zagotovitev, da nekdanji monopolisti ne zlorabljajo svojih prevladujočih položajev za izkoriščanje potrošnikov ali izrinjanje konkurentov.
Massive savings have been delivered on the price of many telephone calls in the last decade because of increased competition.
Zaradi večje konkurence so se v zadnjem desetletju znatno zmanjšali stroški številnih telefonskih klicev.
EU regulation has now helped to extend these benefits to international roaming charges.
Z ureditvijo na ravni EU so se zdaj te koristi razširile na mednarodne cene gostovanja.
As of last summer and autumn, the charges consumers pay for making or receiving calls abroad are capped through the Eurotariff.
Od prejšnjega poletja in jeseni cene, ki jih potrošniki plačajo za odhodne in prejete klice v tujini, omejuje evropska tarifa.
In the increasingly important ICT sector, competition policy can also be an important complementary instrument in connection with enhanced efforts to ensure interoperability and standardisation.
Tudi v vse pomembnejšem sektorju informacijskih in komunikacijskih tehnologij je lahko politika konkurence bistveni dopolnjevalni instrument v povezavi s prizadevanji za zagotovitev interoperabilnosti in standardizacije.
e Competition DG is constantly striving to ensure that its own rules are consistent with ‘better regulation’, a cornerstone of the EU’s competitiveness strategy.
GD za konkurenco si nenehno prizadeva, da bi bili njegovi predpisi skladni z boljšo ureditvijo, ki je temelj strategije EU na področju konkurenčnosti.
A prime example of this is the general block exemption regulation which forms part of the wider ‘small business act’ package.
To nazorno kaže primer uredbe o splošnih skupinskih izjemah, ki je del širšega svežnja zakonov o malih podjetjih.
In fact, the reform of the State aid rules is beginning to bear fruit.
Reforma pravil o državni pomoči je dejansko že obrodila prve sadove.
Figures from autumn 2007 show that Member States have been moving towards the European Council objective of better-targeted aid involving objectives of common interest such as regional development, R & D, SMEs and protecting the environment. A particular focus during 2007 was the revised Community guidelines on State aid for environmental protection, which were adopted as part of the wider energy and climate change package in January 2008. Competition policy remains at the heart of the European project.
Podatki za jesen 2007 kažejo, da se države članice približujejo cilju Evropskega sveta glede večje ciljne usmerjenosti pomoči, ki vključuje cilje skupnega interesa, kot so regionalni razvoj, R & R, MSP in varstvo okolja. Posebna pozornost je bila v letu 2007 namenjena revidiranim smernicam Skupnosti o državni pomoči za varstvo okolja, ki so bile sprejete januarja 2008 v okviru širšega svežnja pravil na področjih energije in podnebnih sprememb.
Its benefits will continue to be shared with consumers and businesses in 2008.
Njene koristi bodo potrošniki in podjetja še naprej uživali tudi v letu 2008.

This entailed, inter alia, investigating and sanctioning anticompetitive behaviour by market participants as well as addressing anticompetitive market structures and regulation across key sectors of the economy.
Zadevni ukrepi so med drugim vključevali preiskovanje in kaznovanje protikonkurenčnega ravnanja udeležencev na trgu ter obravnavo protikonkurenčnih tržnih struktur in ureditev v ključnih gospodarskih sektorjih.
Finally, in the h section, a brief description of interinstitutional cooperation is given.
V zadnjem, petem poglavju, je naveden kratek opis medinstitucionalnega sodelovanja.
Further information can be found in a detailed Commission staff working document and on the website of the Directorate-General for Competition (1).
Več informacij je na voljo v podrobnem delovnem dokumentu služb Komisije ter na spletni strani Generalnega direktorata za konkurenco (1).
Apart from sanctions to punish and deter cartels, effective action against this most pernicious form of anticompetitive conduct requires incentives for participants to report cartels. e Commission’s leniency policy offers incentives to cartelists to report their illegal activities.
Poleg sankcij za kaznovanje in preprečevanje kartelov je treba za učinkovito ukrepanje proti tej najškodljivejši obliki protikonkurenčnega ravnanja spodbuditi udeležence, da jih prijavijo. Politika prizanesljivosti, ki jo izvaja Komisija, ponuja spodbude lastnikom kartelov, da prijavijo svoje nezakonite dejavnosti.
December 2006 saw the introduction of a revised leniency notice
Decembra 2006 je bilo uvedeno revidirano obvestilo o prizanesljivosti (obvestilo iz leta 2006) (2).
(the 2006 notice) (2). is is the third leniency notice following earlier versions in 1996 and 2002. e Commission received 20 applications for immunity (3) and 11 applications for a reduction of fines under the 2006 notice from the date of its introduction to the end of 2007.
To je tretje obvestilo o prizanesljivosti, ki sledi različicam iz let 1996 in 2002. Komisija je na podlagi obvestila iz leta 2006, in sicer od datuma njegove uvedbe do konca leta 2007, prejela 20 prošenj za imuniteto (3) in 11 prošenj za znižanje glob.

Elevators and escalators, the Commission imposed the highest fine per cartel case to date (EUR 992 million) as well as the highest fine per undertaking for a cartel violation
V zadevi Dvigala in tekoče stopnice je Komisija naložila najvišjo globo za posamezen primer kartela do zdaj (992 milijonov EUR) ter najvišjo globo za posamezno družbo zaradi kartelne kršitve (477 milijonov EUR (8)).
6. e Commission has been able to detect a number of cartels on its own initiative. e recent cases of Elevators and escalators, Fasteners, Professional videotape and Flat glass demonstrate that, although the Commission’s leniency policy is an effective tool in detecting cartels, the Commission is not dependant on evidence provided by leniency applicants to uncover cartel behaviour. e Commission continues to place considerable weight on such ex officio investigations which may result from market monitoring, sector enquiries, complaints and via national competition authorities in the European Competition Network.
Zadnje zadeve Dvigala in tekoče stopnice, Zaponke, Profesionalne videokasete in Ravno steklo kažejo, da kljub učinkovitosti politike prizanesljivosti, ki jo izvaja Komisija, ta pri odkrivanju kartelnega ravnanja ni odvisna od dokazov, ki jih predložijo vlagatelji prošenj za prizanesljivost. Komisija še naprej namenja znatno pozornost takim preiskavam po uradni dolžnosti, ki so lahko rezultat tržnega spremljanja, sektorskih preiskav, pritožb in dejavnosti nacionalnih organov za konkurenco v Evropski mreži za konkurenco.
On 11 October, the Commission adopted an Article 9 decision concerning the long-term gas supply contracts concluded by Distrigas in Belgium.
Komisija je 11. oktobra sprejela Odločbo v skladu s členom 9 o dolgoročnih pogodbah o dobavi plina, ki jih je sklenila družba Distrigas v Belgiji.
Under this decision, the Commission renders legally binding until 2011 a set of commitments offered by Distrigas to address concerns raised by the Commission in the course of an investigation under Article 82. e effect of these commitments is to ensure that Distrigas does not tie an excessive proportion of customers for more than one year ahead, while allowing Distrigas as much flexibility as possible in managing its portfolio of contracts.
V tej odločbi Komisija določa, da je sklop zavez, ki jih je dala družba Distrigas v zvezi s pomisleki, ki jih je izrazila Komisija med preiskavo na podlagi člena 82, pravno zavezujoč do leta 2011. Namen teh zavez je zagotoviti, da družba Distrigas ne veže prevelikega deleža strank za več kot eno leto vnaprej, hkrati pa družbi omogočajo kar največjo raven prožnosti pri upravljanju portfelja pogodb.
