(9) The Czech request covers what is called ‘the primary market for bituminous coal’, which includes the production of bituminous coal and the wholesale distribution of coal See page 21 of the application: ‘[…] there is no market of the bituminous coal mining, the market can be conceptually defined only in the next phase when the producers sell the coal mined’. . When considering competition in the market for production of bituminous coal, regard must be had to the links between production and first sale/wholesale distribution of the bituminous coal extracted. This definition is also in line with previous Commission decisions See, inter alia, Commission Decision of 29 September 1999 declaring a concentration to be compatible with the common market and the EEA Agreement (Case IV/M.1532 BP Amoco/Arco), point 14. referring to the exploitation of other types of fuels.
