The European Commission announced on 4 February 2004 it would take France to the European Court of Justice for non-compliance of its public procurement code with the Directives on public contracts and with the EC Treaty. The Commission has also decided to make a formal request to the French authorities to make a provision of the French town planning code compatible with European law.

In a separate move, also on 4 February, the Commission announced France would have to repay €91.12 million in farm subsidies.
