The European Commission has decided to make an application to the European Court of Justice against Greece and to notify a Supplementary Reasoned Opinion to Austria and Luxembourg for non-respect of the European Union (EU) Nitrates Directive. The three member states have failed to reflect all the Directive's requirements in relation to national action plans to fight nitrate pollution of waters. The Greek case also concerns other deficiencies. |
