(150) Za okrepitev in uskladitev upravnih kazni za kršitve te uredbe bi moral imeti vsak nadzorni organ pooblastila za naložitev upravnih glob.
Ta uredba bi morala navajati kršitve, zgornjo mejo in merila za določanje s tem povezanih upravnih glob, ki bi jih moral v vsakem posameznem primeru določiti pristojni nadzorni organ ob upoštevanju vseh zadevnih okoliščin v določeni situaciji ter zlasti narave, teže in trajanja kršitve ter njenih posledic in sprejetih ukrepov za zagotavljanje skladnosti z obveznostmi iz te uredbe in za preprečitev ali ublažitev posledic kršitve.
Kadar se upravne globe naložijo podjetjem, bi se podjetje v te namene moralo razumeti kot podjetje v skladu s členoma 101 in 102 PDEU.
Kadar se upravne globe naložijo osebam, ki niso podjetje, bi moral nadzorni organ pri določanju ustreznega zneska globe upoštevati splošno raven dohodka v državi članici in ekonomski položaj osebe.
Mehanizem za skladnost se lahko uporabi tudi za spodbujanje dosledne uporabe upravnih glob.
Države članice bi morale določiti, ali bi se morale upravne globe uporabljati tudi za javne organe in v kakšnem obsegu.
Naložitev upravne globe ali izdaja opozorila ne vpliva na uporabo drugih pooblastil nadzornih organov ali drugih kazni v skladu s to uredbo.
(150) In order to strengthen and harmonise administrative penalties for infringements of this Regulation, each supervisory authority should have the power to impose administrative fines.
This Regulation should indicate infringements and the upper limit and criteria for setting the related administrative fines, which should be determined by the competent supervisory authority in each individual case, taking into account all relevant circumstances of the specific situation, with due regard in particular to the nature, gravity and duration of the infringement and of its consequences and the measures taken to ensure compliance with the obligations under this Regulation and to prevent or mitigate the consequences of the infringement.
Where administrative fines are imposed on an undertaking, an undertaking should be understood to be an undertaking in accordance with Articles 101 and 102 TFEU for those purposes.
Where administrative fines are imposed on persons that are not an undertaking, the supervisory authority should take account of the general level of income in the Member State as well as the economic situation of the person in considering the appropriate amount of the fine.
The consistency mechanism may also be used to promote a consistent application of administrative fines.
It should be for the Member States to determine whether and to which extent public authorities should be subject to administrative fines.
Imposing an administrative fine or giving a warning does not affect the application of other powers of the supervisory authorities or of other penalties under this Regulation.
