Article 6 Groundhandling for third parties

1. Apžvalga

,
Article 6 1.
Member States shall take the necessary measures in accordance with the arrangements laid down in Article 1 to ensure free access by suppliers of groundhandling services to the market for the provision of groundhandling services to third parties.

Member States shall have the right to require that suppliers of groundhandling services be established within the Community.
Article 6 2.

Member States may limit the number of suppliers authorized to provide the following categories of groundhandling services:

— 
baggage handling,
— 
ramp handling,
— 
fuel and oil handling,
— 
freight and mail handling as regards the physical handling of freight and mail, whether incoming, outgoing or being transferred, between the air terminal and the aircraft.

They may not, however, limit this number to fewer than two for each category of groundhandling service.
Article 6 3.

Moreover, as from 1 January 2001 at least one of the authorized suppliers may not be directly or indirectly controlled by:

— 
the managing body of the airport,
— 
any airport user who has carried more than 25 % of the passengers or freight recorded at the airport during the year preceding that in which those suppliers were selected,
— 
a body controlling or controlled directly or indirectly by that managing body or any such user.

However at 1 July 2000, a Member State may request that the obligation in this paragraph be deferred until 31 December 2002.

The Commission, assisted by the Committee referred to in Article 10, shall examine such request and may, having regard to the evolution of the sector and, in particular, the situation at airports comparable in terms of traffic volume and pattern, decide to grant the said request.
Article 6 4.
Where pursuant to paragraph 2 they restrict the number of authorized suppliers, Member States may not prevent an airport user, whatever part of the airport is allocated to him, from having, in respect of each category of groundhandling service subject to restriction, an effective choice between at least two suppliers of groundhandling services, under the conditions laid down in paragraphs 2 and 3.
