1.

The European Commission has registered a complaint about the procedure to set up a public-private company in the City of Valencia, Spain, under No 2006/4524 SG(06)A/4107.

2.

It has received several hundred copies of this complaint. It publishes this acknowledgment of receipt in the Official Journal of the European Communities and on the Europa website (http://ec.europa.eu/community_law/complaints/receipt/index_en.htm) to keep those concerned informed while saving administrative resources.

3.

The Commission will examine the complaint in light of the applicable Community legislation. The complainants will be informed of the results of its investigation and of any follow-up action decided by the Commission through the same means.

4.

The Commission will endeavour to take a decision on the case within twelve months of the complaint's date of registration (opening of infringement proceedings or closing without further action).

5.

The Commission will protect the complainants' rights by not revealing their identity in its eventual contacts with the authorities of the member state complained of. However, the complainants can authorise the Commission expressly to reveal their identity in any such contacts, if they so wish.
