(Text with EEA relevance)

1.

On 17 March 2006, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertakings Permira Holdings Limited (‘Permira’, United Kingdom) and Carbal S.A. (‘Carbal’, Spain) through Foodco Pastries acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation joint control of the undertaking Tele Pizza S.A. (‘Tele Pizza’, Spain) by way of public bid announced on 28 February 2006.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

—

for Permira: equity investment fund;

—

for Carbal: acquisition of stake and participations in different companies;

—

for Tele Pizza: network of branded fast food restaurants operated directly through proprietary stores or through third party's franchised stores.

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.
