Le haghaidh iomláine, tugann an Coimisiún dá aire nár deonaíodh an beart sin do CLN.
For completeness, the Commission points out that this measure was not granted to CLN.
#2405300
Dá bhrí sin, níl feidhm ag an mbeart sin maidir le CLN.
Therefore, this measure does not apply to CLN.
#2405582
Síníodh an conradh díolacháin idir Réigiún Lazio agus CLN an 30 Nollaig 2013.
The sale contract between the Region of Lazio and CLN was signed on 30 December 2013.
#2404704
De réir Airteagal 4 den chonradh díolacháin, tá CLN faoi cheangal fógra a thabhairt do Réigiún Lazio faoi aon díolachán sa todhchaí de scaireanna Laziomar le tríú páirtithe agus sa chás sin bheadh CLN fós freagrach, áfach, i gcomhpháirt le ceannaitheoir nua Laziomar i ndáil le hoibleagáidí an chonartha seirbhíse.
In accordance with Article 4 of the sale contract, CLN is obliged to notify the Region of Lazio of any future sale of the Laziomar shares to third parties in which case CLN would however remain jointly responsible with the new purchaser of the Laziomar, with respect to the obligations of the service contract.
#2404710
D’éirigh le tairiscint CLN agus shínigh Laziomar (a bhí faighte ag CLN ach a choinnigh a fhéiniúlacht dhlíthiúil ar leithligh) an conradh nua seirbhíse poiblí le Réigiún Lazio an 15 Eanáir 2014 le haghaidh bealaí muirí a oibriú.
Following the successful tender, Laziomar (acquired by CLN but retained its separate legal identity) signed the new public service contract with the Region of Lazio for the operation of maritime routes on 15 January 2014.
#2405297
Thairis sin, tugann an Coimisiún dá aire go sonraítear go soiléir i gconradh díolacháin ghnó Laziomar go bhfuil ar an gceannaitheoir, i.e. CLN, íoc as na costais uile a bhaineann leis an díol (i.e. táillí clárúcháin, costais nótaire, táillí clárúcháin chlár talún, etc.), gan tagairt d’aon díolúine atá ag CLN maidir leis na costais sin.
Furthermore, the Commission notes that the sale contract for the Laziomar business clearly states that the purchaser, i.e. CLN, has to bear all costs related to the sale (i.e. registration fees, notarial costs, land registry, etc.), without reference to any exemption enjoyed by CLN on these costs.
#2405299
Sa chás seo, áfach, cheannaigh CLN Laziomar ó Réigiún Lazio, rud a chiallaíonn go raibh an t-idirbheart sin ina chaiteachas ag CLN agus nach bhféadfadh aon cháin chorparáide a bheith dlite dá thoradh.
In this case, however, CLN purchased Laziomar from the Region of Lazio, which means that this transaction constituted an expense for CLN and as a result no corporate income tax could be due.
#2404615
D’éirigh leis an tairiscint a rinne Compagnia Laziale di Navigazione S.r.l. (“CLN”) sa nós imeachta tairisceana, agus is é a bhí ina úinéir nua ar Laziomar.
Following a successful offer in the tender procedure, Compagnia Laziale di Navigazione S.r.l. (‘CLN’) became the new owner of Laziomar.
#2404625
Ní phléann an Cinneadh seo ach le bearta 1, 3, 4, 5 agus 6 mar a liostaítear in aithris 38 iad a mhéid a bhaineann siad le Laziomar agus CLN.
This Decision only deals with measures 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as listed in recital 38 in so far as they involve Laziomar and CLN.
#2404699
Chuir CLN a thairiscint isteach ar dháta éaga an sprioc-ama, rinneadh scrúdú ar a shonraíochtaí agus bhí toradh dearfach air.
At the expiry of the deadline, CLN submitted its bid, whose specifications were examined and the outcome was positive.
#2404701
Dámhadh an tairiscint do CLN dá réir sin a mhéid a bhaineann le príobháidiú ghnó Laziomar agus le hoibriú na seirbhísí muirí araon (féach roinn 2.3.3).
The tender was therefore awarded to CLN both as regards the privatisation of Laziomar business and the operation of the maritime services (see Section 2.3.3).
#2404705
Bhí toradh an nóis imeachta tairisceana inar dámhadh gnó Laziomar agus an conradh seirbhíse poiblí do CLN faoi réir díospóide os comhair Chúirt Réigiúnach Riaracháin Lazio (“TAR”).
The result of the tender procedure awarding the Laziomar business and the public service contract to CLN was the subject of a dispute at the Regional Administrative Court of Lazio (‘TAR’).
#2404786
An 14 Eanáir 2014, tháinig CLN chun bheith ar an úinéir nua ar Laziomar agus shínigh sé conradh seirbhíse poiblí 10 mbliana le haghaidh naisc le hoileánra Pontino.
On 14 January 2014, CLN became the new owner of Laziomar and signed a ten-year public service contract for links with the Pontino archipelago.
#2405234
I ndiaidh chéim an léirithe spéise, cuireadh 1 tairiscint iomaíoch amháin isteach (CLN), agus rinne Réigiún Lazio meastóireacht uirthi, ag cur a thairiscint theicniúil agus airgeadais san áireamh.
Following the expression of interest stage, one competitive bid was submitted (CLN), which the Region of Lazio evaluated, taking into account its technical and financial offer.
#2405301
Measann an Coimisiún, i bhfianaise a bhfuil thuas, nár thairbhigh Laziomar ná CLN de na díolúintí fioscacha sin.
The Commission, in view of the above, concludes that neither Laziomar nor CLN have benefited from these fiscal exemptions.

maidir leis na bearta SA.32014, SA.32015, SA.32016 (2011/C) (ex 2011/NN) arna gcur chun feidhme ag an Iodáil agus ag Réigiún Lazio i bhfabhar Laziomar agus a fhaighteora CLN

#2404692
Tar éis fhoilsiú an ghlao ar thairiscintí, ar dháta éaga an sprioc-ama, léirigh ocht bpáirtí spéis i rannpháirtíocht sa nós imeachta a ghlacadh (eadhon: Navigazione Libera del Golfo S.r.l., Carpoint Motorsport S.p.A., Blu Navy Cruise & Tour S.r.l., Traghetti Lines, CLN, Navigazione Generale Italiana S.p.A., Vetor S.r.l. agus Ustica Lines, a bhfuil an ceann deireanach sin ag oibriú faoi láthair faoin ainm Liberty Lines) agus thug siad an fhaisnéis a iarradh don roghnú cáilíochtúil sa chéad chéim den nós imeachta.
Following the publication of the call for tenders, on the expiry of the deadline, eight parties expressed an interest to participate in the tender procedure (namely: Navigazione Libera del Golfo S.r.l., Carpoint Motorsport S.p.A., Blu Navy Cruise & Tour S.r.l., Traghetti Lines, CLN, Navigazione Generale Italiana S.p.A., Vetor S.r.l. and Ustica Lines, the latter now operating under the name Liberty Lines) and provided the information requested for the qualitative selection of the first stage of the procedure.
#2404702
Tugadh an conradh díolacháin i gcrích an 30 Nollaig 2013 agus sainmhíníonn sé aistriú scaireanna Laziomar chuig CLN ar an bpraghas socraithe EUR 2272000, ar bhonn meastóireacht saineolaí neamhspleách arna coimisiúnú ag Réigiún Lazio.
The sale contract was concluded on 30 December 2013 and defines the transfer of Laziomar shares to CLN for the fixed price of EUR 2272000, on the basis of an independent expert evaluation commissioned by the Region of Lazio.
#2404869
Ón 15 Eanáir 2014 sainmhínítear an cúiteamh sa chonradh seirbhíse poiblí bunaithe ar an modheolaíocht dá dtagraítear i dTreoir CIPE, á chur san áireamh freisin an tairiscint eacnamaíoch a chuir ceannaitheoir Laziomar, CLN, isteach faoin nós imeachta tairisceana.
As from 15 January 2014, the compensation is defined in the public service contract, based on the methodology referred to in the CIPE Directive and taking also into consideration the economic offer submitted by Laziomar’s buyer, CLN, under the tender procedure.
#2404899
Tugann an Coimisiún dá aire go bhfuil an tosaíocht feistithe, nach bhfuil feidhm léi ach maidir leis na bealaí seirbhíse poiblí amháin, nasctha go dlúth le SGEI a bheith á feidhmiú ag Laziomar agus ag a fhaighteoir CLN.
The Commission notes that the berthing priority, which only applies to the public service routes, is inextricably linked with the performance of the SGEI by Laziomar and by its acquirer CLN.
#2405229
I ndáil leis sin, tugann an Coimisiún dá aire gur lú i bhfad an luach saothair bliantúil a dámhadh do CLN as an tseirbhís mhuirí a sholáthar ná an uasmhéid bliantúil cúitimh a mhol Réigiún Lazio ag tús na tairisceana (féach aithris 75).
In this regard, the Commission takes note of the fact that the annual remuneration that was awarded to CLN for the provision of the maritime service has been much lower than the maximum yearly compensation amount suggested by the Region of Lazio at the start of the tender (see recital 75).
#2405236
Go háirithe, trí dhíol Laziomar a chur ar tairiscint in éineacht le conradh nua seirbhíse poiblí, bíonn an sealbhóir, CLN, faoi réir an cheanglais chun leanúnachas na seirbhíse poiblí a ráthú go huathoibríoch agus dámhtar an tosaíocht feistithe dó.
In particular, by having bundled the sale of Laziomar with a new public service contract, the acquirer, CLN, automatically becomes subject to the requirement to ensure the continuity of the public service and is awarded the berthing priority.
#2405255
Dá réir sin, i bhfianaise nár chuir ach CLN tairiscint isteach sa nós imeachta tairisceana le haghaidh Laziomar (lenar áiríodh an conradh nua seirbhíse poiblí), ní bheadh tairiscint den sórt sin leordhóthanach de ghnáth chun a áirithiú nach raibh buntáiste ann don bhuaiteoir.
Accordingly, given that only CLN submitted a bid in the tender procedure for Laziomar (which included the new public service contract), such tender would normally not be sufficient to ensure the absence of an advantage to the winner.
#2405275
Ós rud é go gcomhlíontar go carnach na ceithre choinníoll a leag Cúirt an Bhreithiúnais amach i gcás Altmark, tagann an Coimisiún ar an gconclúid nach dtugtar buntáiste eacnamaíoch do Laziomar ná dá fhaighteoir, CLN, de bharr an conradh nua seirbhíse poiblí arna chuachadh le gnó Laziomar agus an tosaíocht feistithe a bheith dáfa do Laziomar.
Given that the four conditions set out by the Court of Justice in the Altmark case are cumulatively met, the Commission concludes that the award of the new public service contract bundled with the Laziomar business and the berthing priority to Laziomar, does not confer an economic advantage on the latter and on its acquirer, CLN.
#2405287
Ar an gcéad dul síos, tugann an Coimisiún dá aire nach mór measúnú a dhéanamh ar thrí thacar éagsúla aistrithe: (1) aistrithe iar-fhochuideachtaí Tirrenia, is iad sin Caremar, Saremar agus Toremar, ó Tirrenia chuig Réigiúin Campania, na Sairdíne agus na Tuscáine, (2) aistriú ghnó Laziomar ó Réigiún Campania chuig Réigiún Lazio, agus (3) aistriú ghnó Laziomar ó Réigiún Lazio chuig CLN.
The Commission first notes that three separate sets of transfers have to be assessed: (1) the transfers of Tirrenia's former subsidiaries Caremar, Saremar and Toremar from Tirrenia to the Regions of Campania, Sardinia and Tuscany; (2) the transfer of the Laziomar business from the Region of Campania to the Region of Lazio; and (3) the transfer of the Laziomar business from the Region of Lazio to CLN.
#2405296
Dá bhrí sin, ós rud é nach bhfuil idirbhearta amhail díol ghnó Laziomar chuig CLN faoi réir CBL, ní fhéadfadh sé gur thug an díolúine cánach buntáiste do Laziomar i ndáil le CBL.
Therefore, as transactions such as the sale of the Laziomar business to CLN are not subject to VAT, the tax exemption cannot have conferred an advantage to Laziomar with regard to VAT.
#2405304
Mar sin féin, i gcaitheamh nós imeachta an imscrúdúcháin fhoirmiúil, shoiléirigh an Iodáil nach raibh na hacmhainní FAS ceaptha dá n-úsáid mar chúiteamh breise le haghaidh Laziomar nó CLN (nó d’aon chuideachta den iar-Ghrúpa Tirrenia ná a sealbhóirí faoi seach).
However, in the course of the formal investigation procedure, Italy clarified that the FAS resources were not meant as an additional compensation for Laziomar or CLN (or any other of the companies of the former Tirrenia Group or their respective acquirers).
#2405312
comhlíonann dámhachtain an chonartha nua seirbhíse poiblí le haghaidh na tréimhse 15 Eanáir 2014 – 14 Eanáir 2024, arna chuachadh le gnó Laziomar agus leis an tosaíocht feistithe do Laziomar agus dá fhaighteoir CLN, na ceithre choinníoll Altmark, agus is amhlaidh dá réir nach Státchabhair í de réir bhrí Airteagal 107(1) CFAE;
the award of the new public service contract for the period 15 January 2014–14 January 2024, bundled with the Laziomar business and the berthing priority to Laziomar and its acquirer CLN, complies with the four Altmark conditions and therefore does not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU;
