Estonia and Poland face Court for failing to put EU law on their statute books
(Brussels, 24 November 2010, IP/10/1566)
The European Commission is referring Estonia and Poland to the European Court of Justice for failing to bring EU environmental legislation into force. These Member States have not yet adopted legislation on spatial data infrastructure at national level, despite reasoned opinions issued to all three countries under ongoing infringement proceedings.

The deadline for implementing legislation was 15 May 2009; which means that the EU member states had to bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with the Directive on spatial infrastructure before 15 May 2009.
