By decision no. 7228 of 28 May 2013 of the SAC, Fifth Division on administrative case no. 11081/2012, judge-rapporteur Marieta Mileva (in Bulgarian), the Supreme Administrative Court (SAC) upheld a first instance decision finding Toplofikatsia – Sofia EAD (the central heating provider company) to be an obliged subject under the APIA as a public law organization. The justices motivated that conclusion by the facts that Sofia Municipality is the sole owner of the company’s capital and exercises management control, since it determines the company’s management and supervisory bodies.
