| European Court of Justice judgement on 45% Tax Credit and mini Tax Holidays expected on July 28 |
| On July 28 the Court of Justice of the European Union is to announce its judgement on the actions for annulment of joined proceedings C-474/09 P to C-476/09 P against Decisions of the Commission concerning the framework of state aid applied by Spain (Basque Historical Territories) to some start-ups (known as "mini tax holidays") and joined proceedings C‑471/09 P to C‑473/09 P concerning the framework of state aid to companies in the form of a 45% tax credit on investment, the hearings for which took place at the headquarters of the Court in Luxembourg on May 10 last.
The closest precedent for the new judgement is that announced on June 9 concerning tax holidays, in which the Court overruled entirely the actions for annulment brought by the Foral Deputations. |
| 10th May 2011. Hearing at the European Court in Luxemburg and Sentence on the 9th June 2011 |
| The European Court of Justice has announced the hearing of the joint cases C-471/09P to C-476/09P and the Foral Deputations, the Kingdom of Spain, Confebask, the Basque Government, the Chamber of Commerce of Alava, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa, the European Commission and the Autonomous Community of La Rioja have been called to it at its seat in Luxemburg on the 10th of May at 9,30 a.m.
The joint cases subject to the hearing are the High Instance appeals referred by the Basque Institutions against the First Instance General Court Decision of 9th September 2009, by virtue of which the annulment appeals against the European Commission Decision of 11 July 2001 were rejected. The Decision concerned the so-called mini tax holidays and the 45 per cent tax credit in the Corporate Income Tax, granted for big investments, and regarded them as incompatible state aids.
The hearing is taking place two months after the one held on 10th of March concerning the tax holidays (joint cases C-465/09P to C-470/09 P). The public reading of the Sentences for these cases, which will end the judicial review procedures, is announced for the 9th of June
