Doorhandle is the first contact with the institution that invites us to the world of knowledge and inspiration. At the top, in semi-circle, is the inscription “NARODNA IN UNIVERZITETNA KNJIŽNICA“. At the bottom are the name of the country of issuance “SLOVENIJA” and the year of issuance “2024”.

Action brought on 24 January 2025 – European Commission v Kingdom of Belgium

(C/2025/1415)
Language of the case: Dutch

Parties


Applicant: European Commission (represented by: B. De Meester and N. Ruiz García, acting as Agents)

Defendant: Kingdom of Belgium

Form of order sought

The Commission claims that the Court should:






—


declare that, by failing, in the framework of the action programmes in the territory of the Vlaamse Gewest (Flemish Region), to take all necessary additional measures or reinforced actions despite the water pollution from agriculture identified, the Kingdom of Belgium has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 5(5) of Council Directive 91/676/EEC (1) of 12 December 1991 concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources;










—


order the Kingdom of Belgium to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

The Kingdom of Belgium has failed, in the territory of the Flemish Region, to fulfil its obligations under Article 5(5) of Council Directive 91/676/EEC of 12 December 1991 concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources. Following expiry of the deadline for responding to the reasoned opinion (28 November 2023), the Flemish Region has still not taken the necessary measures, even though it has been established since at least 2020 that existing measures are not sufficient for achieving the objective of the directive, which is to reduce and prevent water pollution by nitrates and eutrophication as a result of agricultural activities.

Defendant: European Commission

Form of order sought

The applicants claim that the Court should:






—


Annul the defendant’s implied decision of 9 January 2025 to refuse access to documents as requested by the applicants under Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2001 regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission documents (1) and Regulation (EC) No 1367/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 September 2006 on the application of the provisions of the Aarhus Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters to Community institutions and bodies; (2)











—


Order the defendant to pay the costs pursuant to Articles 133 and 134 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court, including the costs of any intervening parties.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicants rely on a single plea in law, to the effect that the Commission failed to state reasons, in breach of Article 8(1) of Regulation (EU) 1049/2001, Article 41(2)(c) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and Article 296, paragraph 2, TFEU.






—


The Commission failed to make an express confirmatory decision and therefore has breached its obligation to provide the applicants with sufficient and adequate reasons for its implied decision to refuse access to documents in the format requested or in an existing format.
