The European Commission is taking action against several EU Member States that have failed to notify the Commission of measures they have adopted to transpose EU directives into their national laws. The deadline to transpose these directives has recently expired. The Commission is sending a letter of formal notice to these Member States, giving them two months to reply and complete the transposition of the directives. If they fail to do so, the Commission may issue a stronger warning, known as a reasoned opinion. The Member States in question have not fully transposed one EU directive related to defense, energy, transport, justice, and health. The Commission is urging them to take immediate action to align their laws with EU requirements.
