Press Release: Citizenship : European Enforcement Order –European Commission takes legal action against Cyprus for not providing information on legislation

The European Commission sent Cyprus on 3 June 2010 a letter of formal notice – the first stage in the infringement process – for failing to notify measures to implement rules for enforcing civil and commercial claims across borders. Under European Union rules on uncontested claims, which have been in place since 2005, EU countries must inform the Commission about which competent authority is responsible for issuing European Enforcement Orders and the languages that can be used.
