en	These loans must be granted at an interest rate, which is at least equal to the base rate applicable on 1 January 2020 plus the credit risk premium corresponding to the risk profile of the recipient, with different rates for SMEs and non-SMEs.
mt	Dan is-self għandu jingħata b'rata tal-imgħax li hija għall-anqas daqs ir-rata bażi applikabbli fl-1 ta' Jannar 2020 flimkien mal-primjum tar-riskju ta' kreditu li jikkorrispondi għall-profil ta' riskju tar-riċevitur, b'rati differenti għall-SMEs u għal dawk li mhumiex SMEs.

en	Last night, the European Commission has sent to Member States for consultation a draft proposal for a State aid Temporary Framework to support the economy in the context of the COVID-19 outbreak, based on Article 107(3)(b) TFEU to remedy a serious disturbance across the EU economy.
mt	Il-lejl li għadda, il-Kummissjoni Ewropea bagħtet għall-konsultazzjoni tal-Istati Membri abbozz ta' proposta għal Qafas Temporanju ta' għajnuna mill-Istat biex tiġi appoġġjata l-ekonomija fil-kuntest tat-tifqigħa tal-COVID-19, skont l-Artikolu 107(3)(b) TFUE biex tirrimedja taqlib serju fl-ekonomija tal-UE.

en	It also gives guidance on how to minimise any undue residual aid to banks and to make sure that the aid is passed on, to the largest extent possible, to the final beneficiaries in the form of higher volumes of financing, riskier portfolios, lower collateral requirements, lower guarantee premiums or lower interest rates.
mt	Il-Qafas Temporanju jagħti wkoll gwida dwar kif għandha tiġi minimizzata kwalunkwe għajnuna residwa mhux dovuta lill-banek biex jiġi żgurat li l-għajnuna tiġi mgħoddija, kemm jista' jkun, lill-benefiċjarji finali fil-forma ta' volumi ogħla ta' finanzjament, portafolli aktar riskjużi, rekwiżiti ta' kollateral aktar baxxi, primjums ta' garanzija jew rati ta' imgħax aktar baxxi.

en	This is based on Article 107(3)(b) TFEU to remedy a serious disturbance in the economy.
mt	Dan huwa bbażat fuq l-Artikolu 107(3)(b) tat-TFUE biex jirrimedja taqlib serju fl-ekonomija.

en	Finally (iv), the new Temporary Framework will recognise the important role of the banking sector to deal with the economic effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, namely to channel aid to final customers, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises.
mt	Fl-aħħar (iv), il-Qafas Temporanju ġdid se jirrikonoxxi r-rwol importanti tas-settur bankarju biex jindirizza l-effetti ekonomiċi tat-tifqigħa tal-COVID-19, l-aktar biex jgħaddi l-għajnuna lill-klijenti finali, b'mod speċjali l-impriżi żgħar u ta' daqs medju.

mt	Il-Viċi President Eżekuttiv Margrethe Vestager, li hija responsabbli mill-politika tal-kompetizzjoni, qalet:

en	Even more aid can be granted, if Member States cooperate across borders.
mt	Tista' tingħata terġa' aktar għajnuna, jekk l-Istati Membri jikkooperaw b'mod transfruntiera.

en	This enables Member States to make available public short-term export credit insurance in light of the increasing insufficiency of private insurance capacity for exports to all countries in the current coronavirus crisis.
mt	Dan jippermetti lill-Istati Membri biex jagħmlu disponibbli assigurazzjoni għall-esportazzjoni bi kreditu għal żmien qasir fid-dawl tal-insuffiċjenza li qed tiżdied ta' kapaċità ta' assigurazzjoni privata għall-esportazzjonijiet lejn il-pajjiżi kollha fil-kriżi tal-coronavirus attwali.

mt	Aktar sostenn għar-riċerka u l-iżvilupp relatati mal-coronavirus (R&Ż) biex tiġi indirizzata l-kriżi tas-saħħa attwali.

en	The Temporary Framework was first amended on 3 April 2020 , which increased possibilities for public support to research, testing and production of products relevant to fight the coronavirus outbreak, to protect jobs and to further support the economy.
mt	Il-Qafas Temporanju ġie emendat għall-ewwel darba fit-3 ta' April 2020 , u dan żied il-possibilitajiet li l-pubbliku jappoġġa r-riċerka, l-ittestjar u l-produzzjoni ta' prodotti rilevanti għall-ġlieda kontra t-tifqigħa tal-coronavirus, biex jipproteġu l-impjiegi u biex jappoġġaw aktar l-ekonomija.

en	Separately, if support were to be granted at European level, taking into account the EU common interest, the risk of distortion to the Single Market would be lower, which would therefore require less stringent conditions to be imposed.
mt	B'mod separat, jekk jingħata appoġġ fil-livell Ewropew, b'kont meħud tal-interess komuni tal-UE, ir-riskju ta' distorsjoni għas-Suq Uniku jkun inqas, u għaldaqstant ikun jeħtieġ li jiġu imposti kundizzjonijiet inqas stretti.

en	The proposed broadening of the scope of the Temporary Framework to aid in the form of recapitalisations complements the possibility of Member States to purchase existing shares of companies at market price or pari passu with private shareholders, which in principle falls outside the scope of EU State aid control.
mt	It-twessigħ propost tal-kamp ta' applikazzjoni tal-Qafas Temporanju għal għajnuna fil-forma ta' rikapitalizzazzjonijiet jikkomplementa l-possibbiltà li l-Istati Membri jixtru ishma eżistenti ta' kumpaniji bi prezz tas-suq jew pari passu ma' azzjonisti privati, li fil-prinċipju jaqa' barra mill-ambitu tal-kontroll tal-għajnuna mill-Istat tal-UE.
