Sažetak
For the Republic of Croatia as a country with the second largest archipelago in the Mediterranean,
of which 52 islands and the Pelješac peninsula are permanently inhabited, the activity
of carrying out transportation in line with coastal maritime transport is undoubtedly an activity
of public interest. This article analysses legal issues that arose in practice in connection
with the award of the right to provide maritime cabotage services in Croatia. The authors
discuss the practice of the European Union Institutions in cases related to the awarding of
compensation for the provision of a service of general economic interest to the shipping company
Société nationale maritime Corse Méditerranée, which limits the broad discretionary
powers of the Member States when it comes to defining services of general economic
interest. In accordance with the case-law of the General Court which confirmed the decision-
making practice of the Commisssion, the Member States are obliged to prove the real need
for a public service by a test that includes three steps (SNCM test) with the aim of applying
the least disruptive approach for market freedom when it comes to defining and entrusting
the performance of services of general economic interest. The authors advocate the adoption
of Croatian regulations that regulate in detail the procedure for granting the right to provide
maritime cabotage services in accordance with the case law of the General Court in case
T-454/13 Société nationale maritime Corse Méditerranée (SNCM).
