State aid procedures and requests for information on transport contracts
The formal investigation by the EU Commission against the Federal Government for the alleged provision of illegal state aid as a result of the conclusion of a transport contract between DB Regional and the Federal states of Brandenburg and Berlin is ongoing. This also applies to the preliminary investigations concerning the transport contract for the Berlin S-Bahn (metro), the transport contract with the Rhine-Ruhr transport association (Verkehrsbund Rhein-Ruhr; VRR), as well as the Baden-Württemberg transport contract.
