Collected evidence indicates such practices as refusals to sell or discriminatory conditions depriving consumers of access to goods and services on DSM or obliging consumers to pay higher prices. The study assesses discrimination from the perspective of different areas of European law including Article 20 (2) of Services Directive, Private International Law, Competition Law and Intellectual Property Law, and provides for policy recommendations.

Publicación en EN An Economic Analysis of the Closure of Markets and other Dysfunctions in the Awarding of Concession Contracts Tipo de publicación Fecha Autor externo Ámbito político Palabra clave Análisis en profundidad 15-06-2012 Stéphane SAUSSIER (Sorbonne Business School) Mercado interior y unión aduanera | Derecho de la UE: sistema jurídico y actos legislativos presentación de ofertas | entente | cláusula contractual | adjudicación de contrato administrativo | transparencia administrativa | concesión de servicios Resumen As concession contracts are long-term agreements that are inherently incomplete, the economic literature suggests that rigid award rules are inadequate. We suggest that the Directive for the awarding of concession contracts should contain a balanced mix of flexible and rigid rules, as well as procedures to increase the transparency and accountability of contracting parties. This briefing note provides suggestions in order to avoid the closure of markets and other dysfunctions in the awarding of concession contracts. Publicación en DE, EN, FR Risks of Corruption and Collusion in the Awarding of Concession Contracts Tipo de publicación Fecha Autor externo Ámbito político Palabra clave Estudio 15-06-2012 Tina Søreide (University of Bergen, Faculty of Law, Norway) Mercado interior y unión aduanera | Derecho de la UE: sistema jurídico y actos legislativos presentación de ofertas | entente | cláusula contractual | adjudicación de contrato administrativo | lucha contra el crimen | transparencia administrativa | concesión de servicios | corrupción Resumen This briefing note describes the risk of undue influence, corruption and collusion on sector-governance decisions and the award of concession contracts. State intervention to reduce market failure easily creates a risk of governance failure, and this concern must be addressed to secure the intended combination of market forces and sector regulation – as is so well offered by concession contracts. Harmonised EU legislation specifically on the award of concession contracts is an important step to reduce the mentioned risks, particularly because it will make undue influence on these markets more visible across Member States and develop a common understanding of how to best secure ‘value for money’ for consumers. However, the impact of the new rules on the award of concession contracts will depend not only on how carefully they are implemented, but also the quality of a broader set of integrity mechanisms within the respective Member States. Hence, while the law is an important step towards securing efficient regulation, we need checks and balances on the many decisions that are still up for discretionary judgment by politicians and civil servants with sector oversight responsibility.

Better regulation principles call for a smart approach to the Single CMO proposal based on the extension of rules and the promotion of compatible practices like codes of conduct, standards contracts, quality schemes or price observatories. Furthermore, there should be more emphasis given to encouraging a consistent and unique interpretation of EU Competition Law since the overall picture reflects a heterogeneity of national decisions concerning the Internal Market. Publicación en EN Export Finance Activities by the Chinese Government Tipo de publicación Fecha Autor externo Ámbito político Palabra clave Análisis en profundidad 23-09-2011 Isabella MASSA (Overseas Development Institute - ODI, United Kingdom) Comercio internacional | Asuntos financieros y bancarios norma medioambiental | entente | OCDE | inversión extranjera | países de la OCDE | ayuda a la exportación | crédito a la exportación | relación comercial | competencia internacional | China Resumen This note analyses the functioning of Chinese export finance activities and their potential implications for OECD members and China’s partner developing countries. From our analysis, it emerges that over the past decades, China’s policy banks (China Eximbank, Sinosure, China Development Bank, and China Agricultural Development Bank) have provided an increasing amount of export credit financing which may take several different forms including preferential export buyers’ credits, export sellers’ credits, mixed credits, natural resource-backed loans or lines of credit, concessional loans, and export special economic zones. Chinese export finance activities have played an important role for China’s “going-global” strategy: they have strengthened China’s economic relationships with several developing countries especially in Africa, ensured China of significant access to natural resources, and enhanced China’s sphere of influence. At the same time, Chinese export credits have become a competitive threat to exporters from the OECD. China is not a member of the OECD and is therefore not obliged to comply with the OECD guidelines that: limit tied aid; regulate credit practices; impose maximum repayment terms, country risk classification and minimum interest rates; require the exchange of information; and impose social, environmental and governance standards on financing activities. This creates an unfair advantage for Chinese exporters. Chinese export credit financing can also have important implications for China’s partner countries. In particular, it can lead to new debt sustainability issues, slower reform processes in countries with weak governance systems, drain local natural resources without contributing enough to development, and it can also become a threat for local products and workers.

Así pues, trata de indicar si, en la práctica, las disposiciones de procedimiento vigentes protegen de manera eficaz a las partes interesadas y si existe margen de mejora. El estudio concluye que el corpus vigente de garantías procesales constituye una valiosa fuente de inspiración para cualquier tipo de legislación horizontal prevista en materia de procedimiento administrativo.

Publicación en EN Reforming the Implementation of Community Competition Rules: Impact on the European Economic Area Tipo de publicación Fecha Autor externo Ámbito político Palabra clave Resumen Análisis en profundidad 01-09-2001 Olivier Delattre, Robert Schuman Scholar Mercado interior y unión aduanera | Asuntos económicos y monetarios entente | Espacio Económico Europeo | posición dominante | países de la AELC | AELC | política de competencia Considering the legal homogeneity principle on which the European Economic Area is based, reforms currently under discussion in the European Community concerning the implementation of Articles 81 and 82 EC will have to be incorporated within the EEA framework once adopted, especially in the so-called EEA EFTA Pillar side. From a technical point of view, this requires sine qua non legal amendments to some EEA Agreement Protocols, to Protocol n°4 of the Agreement between EFTA States on the Establishment of a Surveillance Authority and a Court of Justice, as well as to EEA EFTA States national legislation. However, the EEA EFTA pillar authorities have stated their wish to see additional changes carried out. This might lead the EC institutions to take these claims into account in the shaping of the final text concerning reforms. But this will probably not hinder the incorporation of the new EC competition rules into EEA legislation. It should be noted, in particular, that EFTA authorities have expressed broad support for the core aspects of the reforms. Publicación en EN, FR 19-11-2016 Fuente : © Unión Europea, 2016 - PE 3
