Díolmhaítear iad ón gceanglas maidir le fógra a thabhairt faoi bhearta státchabhrach a leagtar síos in Airteagal 108(3) CFAE má chomhlíonann siad na ceanglais a leagtar síos i Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine, go háirithe i roinn sonrach InvestEU de, nó i rialachán eile maidir le rialachán blocdhíolúine.
However, they are exempted from the notification requirement for State aid measures laid down in Article 108(3) TFEU if they meet the requirements, which are laid down in the General Block Exemption Regulation, in particular the InvestEU specific section thereof, or in another block exemption regulation.
Doiciméad Inmheánach Oibre de chuid an Choimisiúin maidir leis an Rialachán Blocdhíolúine um Mótarfheithiclí a ghabhann leis an doiciméad Tuarascáil ón gCoimisiún, Tuarascáil Mheastóireachta ón gCoimisiún maidir le hoibriú Rialachán Blocdhíolúine um Mótarfheithiclí (AE) Uimh. 461/2010, DIO(2021)112, 28.05.2021.

I gcás ar leith, i gcás ar leith, le comhaontú dáilte roghnaíoch a bhaineann tairbhe as blocdhíolúine, cuirtear srian suntasach ar an iomaíocht ar leibhéal an tsoláthróra nó an dáileora agus nach ngintear leis éifeachtúlachtaí a sháraíonn éifeachtaí an tsrianta, mar shampla toisc nach bhfuil na critéir roghnúcháin nasctha le saintréithe an táirge nó nach bhfuil gá leo chun dáileadh an táirge a fheabhsú, féadfar tairbhe na blocdhíolúine a tharraingt siar.
Where in a particular case a selective distribution agreement that benefits from the block exemption restricts competition appreciably at the supplier or distributor level and does not generate efficiencies that outweigh the effects of the restriction, for example because the selection criteria are not linked to the characteristics of the product or are not necessary to improve the distribution of the product, the benefit of the block exemption may be withdrawn.
Nuair a bhíonn Státchabhair i gceist, luaitear in Airteagal 1(4)(c) de Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine nach bhfuil feidhm ag an Rialachán maidir le gnóthais atá i gcruachás.
When State aid is involved, Article 1(4)(c) of the General Block Exemption Regulation states that the Regulation does not apply to undertakings in difficulty.
Ní bheidh feidhm ag an Rialachán seo maidir le comhaontuithe ingearacha a dtagann a n-ábhar faoi raon feidhme aon rialacháin blocdhíolúine eile, mura bhforáiltear dá mhalairt sa rialachán sin.
This Regulation shall not apply to vertical agreements the subject matter of which falls within the scope of any other block exemption regulation, unless otherwise provided for in such a regulation.

I gcás nach nginfidh na hoibleagáidí cúnga maidir le paireacht mhiondíola éifeachtúlacht de réir bhrí Airteagal 101(3) den Chonradh, áfach, féadfar tairbhe na blocdhíolúine a tharraingt siar.
However, where the narrow retail parity obligations do not generate efficiencies within the meaning of Article 101(3) of the Treaty, the benefit of the block exemption may be withdrawn.
I bhfianaise na taithí dearfaí ar an iomlán maidir le cur i bhfeidhm an Rialacháin sin, agus torthaí na meastóireachta ar an Rialachán, is iomchuí rialachán blocdhíolúine nua a ghlacadh.
In view of the overall positive experience with the application of that Regulation and the results of the evaluation of that Regulation, it is appropriate to adopt a new block exemption regulation.
I bhfianaise na taithí dearfaí ar an iomlán maidir le cur i bhfeidhm an Rialacháin sin agus torthaí na meastóireachta ar an Rialachán, is iomchuí rialachán blocdhíolúine nua a ghlacadh.
In view of the overall positive experience with the application of that Regulation and the results of the evaluation of that Regulation, it is appropriate to adopt a new block exemption regulation.
Déanfaidh an Coimisiún na rialacha maidir le státchabhair i dtaca leis an gcúigiú ais sin a oiriúnú trí athbhreithniú breise a dhéanamh ar Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine maidir leis an gComhaontú Glas.
The Commission will adapt the State Aid rules on this fifth axis by further revising the Green Deal General Block Exemption Regulation.
·Méadófar uasteorainn an Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine le haghaidh cabhair do FBManna i gcomhair oiliúna ó EUR 2 mhilliún go EUR 3 mhilliún.
·The General Block Exemption Regulation ceiling for aid to SMEs for training will increase from EUR 2 million to EUR 3 million.
De réir údaráis na hIorua, chomhlíon an Scéim an Rialachán Ginearálta Maidir le Blocdhíolúine (‘GBER’), agus cuireadh an fhaisnéis achomair isteach i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 11(1) den rialachán sin.
According to the Norwegian authorities, the Scheme complied with the General Block Exemption Regulation (‘the GBER’), and the summary information was submitted as per Article 11(1) of that regulation.
Gan dochar do dhlí an Aontais ná do shainchumais an Choimisiúin, tá sé tábhachtach go saineoidh an Coimisiún, ar bhealach tráthúil agus i gcomhairle leis na páirtithe leasmhara uile, na hinfheistíochtaí poiblí i mbonneagar calafoirt a thagann faoi raon feidhme Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 651/2014 ón gCoimisiún [13] (Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine), agus an bonneagar sin nach dtagann faoi raon feidhme na Státchabhrach, agus aird á tabhairt ar chineálacha áirithe bonneagar nach bonneagair eacnamaíocha iad, lena n-áirítear bonneagar a bhaineann le rochtain agus le cosaint, ar an gcoinníoll go bhfuil siad ar fáil do na húsáideoirí uile a d’fhéadfadh a bheith ann ar théamaí cothroma neamh-idirdhealaitheacha.
Without prejudice to Union law and to the prerogatives of the Commission, it is important that the Commission identify, in a timely manner and in consultation with all interested parties, which public investments in port infrastructure fall within the scope of Commission Regulation (EU) No 651/2014 [13] (General Block Exemption Regulation), and which infrastructure does not fall under the scope of State aid, taking into consideration the non-economic nature of certain infrastructure, including access and defence infrastructure, provided that they are accessible to all potential users on equal and non-discriminatory terms.
Tá blocdhíolúine ann cheana féin don tacaíocht d’fhiontair bheaga agus mheánmhéid le haghaidh na gcostas a thabhaítear i dtionscadail an chomhair chríochaigh Eorpaigh (CCE) de bhun Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 651/2014 ón gCoimisiún agus áirítear freisin forálacha speisialta i ndáil le cúnamh réigiúnach le haghaidh infheistíochtaí ag gnóthais de gach méid sa chuid den Rialachán sin a bhaineann le cabhair réigiúnach agus sna Treoirlínte ón gCoimisiún maidir le Státchabhair réigiúnach le haghaidh 2014-2020.
Support for small and medium-sized enterprises for costs incurred in European territorial cooperation (ETC) projects is already block-exempted pursuant to Commission Regulation (EU) No 651/2014 and special provisions in relation to regional aid for investments by undertakings of all sizes are also included in the regional aid section of that Regulation and in the Commission Guidelines on regional State aid for 2014-2020.
Féadfar cabhair nach bhfuil aon chostais incháilithe in-sainaitheanta aici a charnadh le haon Státchabhair eile nach bhfuil aon chostais incháilithe in-sainaitheanta aici, suas leis an tairseach maoiniúcháin iomláin ábhartha is airde a shocraítear in imthosca sonracha gach cáis ar leith leis seo nó le rialachán blocdhíolúine eile nó cinneadh eile arna ghlacadh ag an gCoimisiún.
Aid without identifiable eligible costs may be cumulated with any other State aid without identifiable eligible costs, up to the highest relevant total financing threshold fixed in the specific circumstances of each case by this or another block exemption regulation or decision adopted by the Commission.
Agus an taithí sin á cur san áireamh, maille le forbairtí margaidh nua, amhail fás na ríomhthráchtála, agus cineálacha nua nó cineálacha níos coitianta comhaontuithe ingearacha, is iomchuí rialachán blocdhíolúine nua a ghlacadh.
Taking into account that experience as well as new market developments, such as the growth of e-commerce, and new or more prevalent types of vertical agreements, it is appropriate to adopt a new block exemption regulation.
Tairbhe na blocdhíolúine a bhunaítear leis an Rialachán seo, ba cheart é a bheith teoranta do na comhaontuithe ingearacha sin ar féidir talamh slán a dhéanamh de le deimhneacht leordhóthanach go gcomhlíonann siad coinníollacha Airteagal 101(3) den Chonradh.
The benefit of the block exemption established by this Regulation should be limited to vertical agreements for which it can be assumed with sufficient certainty that they satisfy the conditions of Article 101(3) of the Treaty.
Go háirithe, maidir le tairbhe na blocdhíolúine a bhunaítear leis an Rialachán seo, níor cheart feidhm a bheith aici maidir le comhaontuithe ingearacha ina bhfuil cineálacha áirithe srianta diana ar an iomaíocht, amhail praghsanna athdhíola íosta agus seasta, agus cineálacha áirithe cosanta críche, lena n-áirítear cosc ar úsáid éifeachtach an idirlín chun rudaí a dhíol nó srianta áirithe ar fhógraíocht ar líne.
In particular, the benefit of the block exemption established by this Regulation should not apply to vertical agreements containing certain types of severe restrictions of competition, such as minimum and fixed resale prices and certain types of territorial protection, including the prevention of the effective use of the internet to sell or certain restrictions of online advertising.
Ina theannta sin, scrúdaigh an Coimisiún an bhféadfaí a mheas go raibh dámhachtainí aonair faoi scéim ZFM comhoiriúnach, dá mba rud é go raibh siad blocdhíolmhaithe le Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 651/2014 ón gCoimisiún (Rialachán Ginearálta Blocdhíolúine, “2014 GBER”), ar rialachán é a bhféadfadh feidhm a bheith aige go haisghníomhach maidir le cabhair aonair a deonaíodh sular tháinig forálacha GBER 2014 faoi seach i bhfeidhm, ar choinníoll gur comhlíonadh na coinníollacha ábhartha.
Furthermore, the Commission examined whether individual awards under the ZFM scheme could be deemed compatible, if they were block-exempted by Commission Regulation (EU) No 651/2014 (General Block Exemption Regulation, ‘2014 GBER’), which might apply retroactively to individual aid granted before the respective provisions of the 2014 GBER entered into force, provided the relevant conditions were complied with.
Athdhearbhaíonn an Phortaingéil nach bhféadfaidh GBER 2014 iarratas a dhéanamh go haisghníomhach ar dhámhachtainí cabhrach aonair faoi scéim ZFM chun críocha a gcomhoiriúnacht a dhearbhú, dá ndíolmhófaí leis an Rialachán Ginearálta Blocdhíolúine iad.
Portugal reiterates that the 2014 GBER may not apply retroactively to individual aid awards under the ZFM scheme for the purposes of declaring their compatibility, if that General Block Exemption Regulation exempted them.
D’áitigh sí freisin nár bhain an sainmhíniú ar bhall foirne a chuimsítear in Airteagal 5 d’Iarscríbhinn I a ghabhann le Rialachán (CE) Uimh. 800/2008 ón gCoimisiún (an Rialachán Ginearálta Blocdhíolúine, “2008 GBER”) ach leis an sainmhíniú ar fhiontair bheaga agus mheánmhéide (FBManna) laistigh de raon GBER 2008 agus nach raibh feidhm aige maidir le Scéim III, mar go raibh sé faoi réir cinneadh ad hoc.
It also argued that the definition of staff headcount included in Article 5 of Annex I to Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/2008 (General Block Exemption Regulation, ‘2008 GBER’) only related to the definition of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the scope of the 2008 GBER and did not apply to Regime III, as it was subject to an ad hoc decision.
An próiseas a ghabhann le rialachán blocdhíolúine nua a ghlacadh maidir le comhaontuithe taighde agus forbartha, ionas go mbeidh a dhóthain ama ag an gCoimisiún chun an próiseas sin a thabhairt chun críche, agus de bhun chumhacht an Choimisiúin faoi Airteagal 2(1) de Rialachán (CEE) Uimh. 2821/71, ba cheart síneadh 6 mhí a chur le tréimhse chur i bhfeidhm Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1217/2010.
To allow the Commission adequate time to complete the process for the adoption of a new block exemption regulation for research and development agreements and pursuant to the Commission’s power under Article 2(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2821/71, the period of application of Regulation (EU) No 1217/2010 should be extended by six months.
An próiseas a ghabhann le rialachán blocdhíolúine nua a ghlacadh maidir le comhaontuithe speisialtóireachta, ionas go mbeidh a dhóthain ama ag an gCoimisiún chun an próiseas sin a thabhairt chun críche, agus de bhun chumhacht an Choimisiúin faoi Airteagal 2(1) de Rialachán (CEE) Uimh. 2821/71, ba cheart síneadh 6 mhí a chur le tréimhse chur i bhfeidhm Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1218/2010.
To allow the Commission adequate time to complete the process for the adoption of a new block exemption regulation for specialisation agreements and pursuant to the Commission’s power under Article 2(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2821/71, the period of application of Regulation (EU) No 1218/2010 should be extended by six months.
Dá bhrí sin, ba cheart do na Ballstáit na bearta uile is gá a dhéanamh chun comhlíonadh an Rialacháin seo a áirithiú, lena n-áirítear comhlíonadh cabhrach aonair a dheonaítear faoi scéimeanna a bhfuil blocdhíolúine acu.
Therefore, Member States should take all necessary measures to ensure compliance with this Regulation, including compliance of individual aid granted under block-exempted schemes.
Chun éifeachtúlacht na gcoinníollacha comhoiriúnachta a leagtar amach sa Rialachán seo a threisiú, ba cheart don Choimisiún a bheith in ann tairbhe na blocdhíolúine a tharraingt siar do na bearta cabhrach amach anseo i gcás nach gcomhlíontar na ceanglais seo.
To reinforce the effectiveness of compatibility conditions set out in this Regulation, it should be possible for the Commission to withdraw the benefit of the block exemption for the future aid measures in the event of failure to comply with these requirements.
Ba cheart an Coimisiún a bheith in ann tarraingt siar bhuntáiste na blocdhíolúine a theorannú do chineálacha áirithe cabhrach, do thairbhithe áirithe, nó do bhearta cabhrach a ghlac údaráis áirithe, i gcás nach mbaineann neamhchomhlíonadh an Rialacháin seo ach le grúpa teoranta beart nó le húdaráis áirithe.
The Commission should be able to restrict the withdrawal of the benefit of the block exemption to certain types of aid, certain beneficiaries or aid measures adopted by certain authorities, where non-compliance with this Regulation affects only a limited group of measures or certain authorities.
I gcás nach gcomhlíontar ceanglais Chaibidil II, ní bheidh tionchar ag tarraingt siar bhuntáiste na blocdhíolúine i dtaca le bearta cabhrach amach anseo ar bhlocdhíolúine a bheith tugtha i gcomhair na mbeart a bhí ann cheana a chomhlíonann an Rialachán seo.
In case of failure to fulfil the requirements of Chapter II, the withdrawal of the benefit of the block exemption in respect of the future aid measures does not affect the fact that the past measures complying with this Regulation were block exempted.
Dá bhrí sin, meastar gur tairseacha iomchuí iad na huasmhéideanna in aghaidh an aonaid a leagadh síos faoi Threoirlínte 2014 maidir le bearta blocdhíolúine a bhaineann le gealltanais dheonacha i bhfabhar an chomhshaoil, na haeráide nó leas ainmhithe.
The maximum amounts per unit set under the 2014 Guidelines are therefore considered appropriate thresholds to block-exempt measures involving voluntary commitments in favour of the environment, the climate or animal welfare.
I gcás ina ndéantar tionscadal CLLD i bhfabhar ceann amháin de na cuspóirí a leagtar amach in Airteagal 1 de Rialachán (AE) 2015/1588, ba cheart go mbeadh se indéanta, dá bhrí sin, blocdhíolúine a thabhairt freisin do chabhair do bhardais i gcomhthéacs tionscadal den sórt sin.
Where a CLLD project is carried out in favour of one of the objectives set out in Article 1 of Regulation (EU) 2015/1588, it should therefore be possible to block-exempt also aid to municipalities in the context of such project.
Cabhair gan costais incháilithe in-sainaitheanta, féadfar í a charnadh le státchabhair eile gan costais incháilithe in-sainaitheanta, suas leis an tairseach mhaoiniúcháin iomláin ábhartha is airde a shocraítear in imthosca sonracha gach cáis leis an rialachán seo nó le rialachán blocdhíolúine eile nó le cinneadh a ghlacann an Coimisiún.
Aid without identifiable eligible costs may be cumulated with other State aid without identifiable eligible costs, up to the highest relevant total financing threshold fixed in the specific circumstances of each case by this or another block exemption regulation or decision adopted by the Commission.
Chun éifeachtúlacht na gcoinníollacha comhoiriúnachta a leagtar amach sa Rialachán seo a fhorfheidhmiú, ba cheart go mbeadh an Coimisiún in ann buntáiste na blocdhíolúine do bhearta cabhrach sa todhchaí a tharraingt siar i gcás nach gcomhlíontar na ceanglais sin.
To enforce the effectiveness of compatibility conditions set out in this Regulation, it should be possible for the Commission to withdraw the benefit of the block exemption for future aid measures in the event of failure to comply with these requirements.
Ba cheart go mbeadh an Coimisiún in ann tarraingt siar bhuntáiste na blocdhíolúine a theorannú do chineálacha áirithe cabhrach, do ghnóthais áirithe is tairbhithe, nó do bhearta cabhrach a ghlac údaráis áirithe, i gcás nach mbaineann neamhchomhlíonadh an Rialacháin seo ach le grúpa teoranta beart nó le húdaráis áirithe.
The Commission should be able to restrict the withdrawal of the benefit of the block exemption to certain types of aid, certain beneficiary undertakings or aid measures adopted by certain authorities, where non-compliance with this Regulation affects only a limited group of measures or certain authorities.
I gcás ina ndéantar tionscadal CLLD i bhfabhar ceann amháin de na cuspóirí atá beartaithe in Airteagal 1 de Rialachán (AE) 2015/1588 ón gComhairle, ba cheart go mbeadh se indéanta, dá bhrí sin, blocdhíolúine a thabhairt freisin do chabhair do bhardais i gcomhthéacs tionscadal den sórt sin.
Where a CLLD project is carried out in favour of one of the objectives foreseen in Article 1 of Council Regulation (EU) 2015/1588, it should therefore be possible to block-exempt also aid to municipalities in the context of such project.
I mí na Bealtaine 2021, d’fhoilsigh an Coimisiún torthaí na meastóireachta ar an dá rialachán blocdhíolúine chothrománacha maidir le Taighde agus Forbairt agus comhaontuithe speisialtóireachta (arna ngiorrú mar RB T&F agus RB Speisialtóireachta faoi seach, agus mar RBCanna le chéile), in éineacht leis na Treoirlínte Cothrománacha.
In May 2021, the Commission published the findings of the evaluation of the two horizontal block exemption regulations on Research & Development and specialisation agreements (abreviated R&D BER and Specialisation BER respectively, together HBERs), together with the Horizontal Guidelines.
D’fhonn feabhas a chur ar an idirghníomhú i rialacha cistiúcháin an Aontais agus rialacha Státchabhrach an Aontais faoin gCreat Airgeadais Ilbhliantúil nua, i mí Iúil 2021 ghlac an Coimisiún leasuithe ar Rialachán Ginearálta na Blocdhíolúine (GBER).
With the aim of improving the interplay between EU funding rules and EU State aid rules under the new Multiannual Financial Framework, the Commission adopted in July 2021 amendments to the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER).
