                                1 According to the EEA utilities directive, a public undertaking is any undertaking over which the contracting authorities may exercise directly or indirectly a dominant influence by virtue of their ownership of it, their financial participation therein, or the rules which govern it.
                                A dominant influence on the part of the contracting authorities shall be presumed when these authorities, directly or indirectly, in relation to an undertaking:
                                i. hold the majority of the undertaking's subscribed capital, or
                                ii. control the majority of the votes attaching to shares issued by the undertaking, or
                                iii. can appoint more than half of the undertaking's administrative, management or supervisory body.

                                2 As regards transport services, a network shall be considered to exist where the service is provided under operating conditions laid down by a competent authority, of an EEA member state, such as conditions on the routes to be served, the capacity to be made available or the frequency of the service.

                                3 E.g the provision or operation of networks (within the meaning of footnote 2) providing a service to the public in the field of transport by high-speed or conventional trains.

                                4 "Affiliated undertaking" means any undertaking the annual accounts of which are consolidated with those of the procuring entity in accordance with the requirements of Council Directive 83/349/EEC on consolidated accounts, or in case of entities not subject to that Directive, any undertaking over which the procuring entity may exercise, directly or indirectly, a dominant influence, or which may exercise a dominant influence over the procuring entity, or which, in common with the procuring entity, is subject to the dominant influence of another undertaking by virtue of ownership, financial participation, or the rules which govern it.
