Pleas in law and main arguments
By virtue of Article 13 of Directive 2014/61, the Member States were required to adopt the national transposing measures by 1 January 2016 at the latest. The Commission is of the view that the Kingdom of Belgium failed to fulfil its obligations under that provision.
In its action, the Commission proposes that a daily fine of EUR 54 639,36 be imposed on the Kingdom of Belgium.
