Value added tax release for public enterprises is to be void

Competition between public and private enterprises (openPR) - EUROPATICKER environmental call (europaticker.de): United the participants of a discussion round of BDE and BDI showed up with the topic value added tax disadvantage more privately in relation to public enterprises. This corresponds to one of the demands for core of the Federal association of the German disposal economy (BDE), which in the past year in addition a complaint submitted at the European Union commission. Public enterprises are so far, differently than private, released from the value added tax.

The undersecretary of state in the North-Rhine/Westphalian Ministry for economics, middle class and energy Dr. Jens Baganz, of Braunschweig mayor Dr. Gert Hoffmann, Siegfried Rehberger, managing director Remondis GmbH & CO. Kg, Hartmut Schauerte, the parliamentary undersecretary of state at the Federal Ministry for economics and technology as well as the European delegate Dr. Andreas Schwab discussion themselves unanimously for the expansion of the value added tax on public enterprises. Only so fair competition between public and private enterprises is to be ensured. This corresponds to one of the demands for core of the Federal association of the German disposal economy (BDE), which in the past year in addition a complaint submitted at the European Union commission. Public enterprises are so far, differently than private, released from the value added tax. Hoffmann energized to make the additional receipts available from the taxation of the public enterprises for the care of children. Moderated of Dr. Matthias Mueller of the Frankfurt general newspaper developed an intensive discussion over the distorted competition between local and private enterprises in Germany.

Schauerte pleaded therefore for a stronger disclosure and comparability of the fee calculations. Rehberger demanded in this connection the possibility of revising Rekommunalisierungsmassnahmen if it as erring way presents itself. Competition may not be excluded on all times. Baganz stressed the principle of the government coalition in North Rhine-Westphalia, according to which generally privately before state go. Where the market functions, the state lost nothing. This is considered also with the reform of the North-Rhine/Westphalian Gemeindeordnung, by limiting the economic manipulation of the municipalities closely. In the future is above all to be examined, whether it is still justified, the municipalities within ranges such as disposal to leave housebuilding or hospital system free hand without consideration for the fact that it gives there numerous private offerers.

With the topic of inter+local co-operation the discussion turned around the original goals of Zweckverbänden, which lay in common accomplishment of tasks and in the elevation of synergies. Baganz designated inter+local co-operation in the reason as quite desired, their assignment liberty is however a question of the concrete arrangement in individual cases. Also Hoffmann wants the possibility above all smaller municipalities of organizing themselves of keeping unrestricted for common task completion in Zweckverbänden.

However municipalities for some time develop their activities within service ranges noticeably and block thereby functioning competition. In the context of inter+local co-operation the agency usually takes place from neighbouring municipalities or Zweckverbänden without public advertisement competition. This practice with reference to the autonomy warranty of the regional administrative bodies is justified. Rejected a general exception of inter+local co-operation of the defaults of the assignment right of a large majority of the European delegates on European level, like the delegate of the European parliament Schwab stated. However the German Federal Government plans an amending of the law against restraints of trade (GWB). As long as the public contractor is active for the assigning place „essentially “, inter+local co-operation is to be excluded from the assignment regulations.

The participants of the discussion were itself united in the fact that increased advertisement-free assignment has engraving consequences for the private sector in the context of inter+local co-operation. Develop local monopolies, which profit on the one hand from advertisement-free attained orders and step in other market fields with private enterprises into competition.

The BDE is with approximately 750 member enterprises the strongest combination of the disposal industry of the German Federal Republic. Predominantly medium-size enterprises, in addition, all large-scale enterprises belong to the federation.
