On 25 June, 2009, the European Commission sent a second written warning to Belgium in a case concerning the breach of EU laws on the treatment of urban waste water. In 2004 the European Court of Justice ruled that all Belgian regions lacked sufficient urban waste water collection and treatment systems. The second warning followed an earlier one sent to Belgium in January 2006. Should Belgium's response not be satisfactory the Commission can ask that the Court impose fines on Belgium. |
