(24) In view of the above factors, for the purposes of evaluating the conditions laid down in Article 30(1) of Directive 2004/17/EC, the geographical market is considered to be confined to the Czech Republic and Poland, both in respect of SC and CSFC. Due to the abovementioned differences between those regions which can be easily supplied by sea borne coal and those which might be too far away from any coast, the market could even be smaller comprising only the Czech Republic and the south of Poland. The question can, however, be left open, since the larger market definition is the one more favourable to the applicant. Under both market definitions, the analysis does not lead to a different outcome.
