To help citizens and businesses benefit fully from the European Union's legislation, the Commission maintains a constant dialogue with member states to ensure compliance with EU law. It can initiate infringement procedures against member states in the event of non-compliance. The decisions taken today, as part of this infringement package, include 20 letters of formal notice and several reasoned opinions. The Commission also decided to refer 6 cases to the Court of Justice of the European Union. Finally, the Commission decided to close 95 cases in which the member states concerned, in cooperation with the Commission, have brought an infringement to an end and ensured compliance with EU law. The decisions and the corresponding press releases are available online.  

The European Commission is also taking action against several EU member states that have failed to notify the Commission of measures they have adopted to transpose EU Directives into their national laws. The Commission is sending a letter of formal notice to these member states, giving them two months to reply and complete the transposition of the Directives. The member states in question have failed to fully transpose three EU directives related to financial stability and energy. More information in the press release.
