The public policy practice advises on infringement proceedings against EU Member States.
The European Commission monitors the compliance of the 27 EU Member States with EU law. If it considers that a country has not fulfilled its obligations, for example because of incorrect, incomplete or late transposition of EU legislation, it can take action against that country. Ultimately, these proceedings can culminate in the Commission bringing the matter before the Court of Justice.
Anyone may lodge a complaint with the Commission against a Member State about any EU measure (law, regulation or administrative action) or practice which is considered incompatible with EU law. We advise clients on the process for submitting a complaint, as well as on what action to take with respect to complaints that have been submitted by others.
