Pleas in law and main arguments

On 2 October 2019, the Commission questioned Portugal regarding the measures taken to comply with the judgment delivered in case C-290/18, Commission v Portugal (EU:C:2019:669), in which the Court of Justice declared that that Member State failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 4(4) and Article 6(1) of Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992
             (1) on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora.
Portugal informed the Commission that it had created all 61 sites of community importance at issue in that judgment.
Taking the view that that measure was not sufficient to comply fully with the judgment in question, on 2 December 2021, the Commission sent a letter of formal notice to Portugal.
Since Portugal persisted in not designating, with the required precision, the 61 special areas of conservation at issue in that judgment (Article 4(4) of Directive 92/43) and in not establishing the necessary conservation measures for those areas (Article 6(1) of that directive), the Commission decided, on 7 February 2024, to refer the matter to the Court of Justice, by bringing the present action for failure to fulfil obligations.
