Comments on the Draft Commission Notice on the notion of State aid pursuant to Article 107 (1) TFEU

Description

The Centre of European Law at King’s College London welcomes the initiative of the Commission to issue a notice on the notion of State aid. There are two reasons for which this is an important regulatory development. First, the notice increases legal certainty for businesses and national administrations alike. Second, the Commission is undertaking pioneering work by including in the notice important guidance on fiscal policy. This paper details particular comments that might render the notice stronger. Co-authored with Andrea Biondi, Jose Buendia Sierra, Gian Marco Galletti. Clinical teaching project for the EU State Aid Class of 2013/14.
