Press Release: European Court of Justice confirms legality of the establishment of the European Network and Information Security Agency

The European Court of Justice confirmed on 2 May 2006 that the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA), established in 2004 with its seat now in Heraklion (Greece), had been correctly established on the basis of the single market clause in Article 95 of the EC Treaty. The Court thereby rejected a legal challenge made by the United Kingdom.
