The European Commission is taking action against several EU Member States that have failed to notify the Commission of measures to transpose EU Directives into their national laws. These Member States have failed to fully transpose three EU directives related to energy and financial services. The deadline to transpose these Directives has expired recently and the Commission is urging them to take immediate action to bring their laws in line with EU requirements. 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. If they fail to do so, the Commission may pass to a next step and issue a reasoned opinion.
