Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.5203 — EZW/Gazeley)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2008/C 149/07)

1.

On 6 June 2008, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking Economic Zones World FZE (‘EZW’, United Arab Emirates) belonging to the Dubai World Group acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Gazeley Ltd (‘Gazeley’, United Kingdom) by way of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

—

for EZW: creation, development and management of economic zones, logistics businesses and industrial parks,

—

for Gazeley: development of distribution centres in Western Europe, China and other emerging markets.

3.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.

4.
