The creation of the pension fund for RATP staff (CRP-RATP) constitutes State aid in accordance with Article 87(1) of the Treaty, granted illegally by France contrary to Article 88(3) of the Treaty.
This State aid is compatible with the common market under Article 87(3)(c) of the Treaty, subject to the full implementation of the reform of the RATP special pension scheme, the objective of which is to bring the scheme into line with the statutory regulations governing the basic schemes of private sector employees and civil servants.
Implementation of the aid is accordingly authorised.
The payment by the State of a balancing subsidy to the CRP-RATP and the financing by the State of cash payments in place of the CRP-RATP for the affiliation of the basic rights of the special scheme to the statutory schemes do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty.
