The Commission further observed that fisheries undertakings making use of the Ostend fish auction were granted advantages by EVO through the provision of services at rates below those which a normal private operator would charge, and by PAKHUIZEN letting buildings at rates below those which a normal private operator would charge.
Veel täheldas komisjon, et Oostende kalaoksjonit kasutavad kalandusettevõtted said eeliseid EVO-lt, kes pakkus teenuseid allpool tariife, mida oleks tavaline eraettevõtja nõudnud, ja PAKHUIZENilt, kes küsis hoonete eest odavamat renditasu, kui tavaline eraettevõtja oleks nõudnud.
