Three Infringement Procedures Against Hungary At Next Level
- 16 Apr 2014 4:00 AM
The European Commission on Wednesday said it has taken three infringement procedures against Hungary to the next level. The procedures concern antitrust law for the farm sector, excise duties on spirits and trade of tobacco products.
In each of the cases, the commission requested that Hungary take action in a “reasoned opinion”, the second step of EU infringement procedures.
If the country fails to bring domestic legislation in line with EU law, the commission may decide to refer the cases to the European Court of Justice.
