summary
In adopting its resolution drafted by Mr. Javier AREITIO TOLEDO (E, EPP), the Parliament approved the Commission's proposal subject to a number of amendments. These amendments seek to widen the concept of "existing aid" as certain forms of aid granted some time ago might still have a detrimental impact on the single market. Other amendments seek to ensure that Parliament and the Member States are informed when one Member State grants new aid. This would allow them to react to any aid that they consider to be illegal. The Parliament also called for the improvement of procedures enabling Member States to recover aid granted unlawfully.�

summary
OBJECTIVE: the proposal for a regulation seeks to increase transparency and legal certainty by codifying and clarifying procedural rules in the field of state aid. SUBSTANCE: At present, the only legal provisions on State aid procedures are those of Article 93 of the Treaty. However, through the Commission's practice and also the case law of the Court of Justice, a whole set of rules has been developed, which, due to the fragmentation of rules, is not transparent enough. The proposed regulation will allow the integration of the procedural rules in one coherent text. The Commission's proposal confirms that the obligation of prior notification and the 'standstill' principle established by Article 93(3) constitute the cornerstone of the system of control of State aid. Following the existing case-law of the Court of Justice, the Commission confers the obligation pursuant to Article 93(3) on the Member State concerned. The State aid control procedure is thus largely based upon a dialogue between the Commission and the Member State concerned which is the 'ordinary law' interlocutor of the Commission. �
