Amendment 27 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17
(17) Ambiguity exists as to whetherIn the context of the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union of 14 July 2005, Case C-386/03 Commission v Germany1, it is necessary to clarify how Member States may require the takeover of staff upon a change of provider for groundhandling services to which access is limited. Discontinuity of staff can have a detrimental effect on the quality of groundhandling services. It is therefore appropriatebsolutely essential to clarify the rules on the takeover of staff beyond the application of Directive 2001/23/EC on transfers of undertakings enabling Member States to ensure adequate employment and working conditions. __________________ 1 [2005], I-6947.

A significant part as referred to in the first sentence of subparagraph 1 above always applies if more than 5 % of its groundhandling services are affected. Article 4(1), second sentence, of Directive 2001/23/EC shall not apply to the cases outlined in the first sentence of subparagraph 1 of this paragraph.
