C 173/27
(Case C-191/23)
(2023/C 173/38)
Language of the case: Portuguese
Parties
Applicant: European Commission (represented by: C. Hermes and L. Santiago de Albuquerque, acting as Agents)
Defendant: Portuguese Republic
The applicant’s claims
The applicant claims that the Court should:
1.declare that the Portuguese Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 13(2) and (5) of Regulation (EU) No 1143/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 on the prevention and management of the introduction and spread of invasive alien species (1) by failing to establish and implement action plans that comply with the requirements specified in Article 13 of that regulation and to transmit them to the Commission without delay;
2.order the Portuguese Republic to pay the costs.
Pleas in law and main arguments
According to Article 13(2) and (5) of Regulation No 1143/2014, the Portuguese Republic had three years from the adoption of the list of invasive alien species of Union concern (‘the Union list’) to establish, implement and transmit to the Commission action plans to address the priority pathways of unintentional introduction and spread of those species in its territory and marine waters.
The Portuguese Republic identified eleven priority pathways covered by seven proposed action plans.
However, the Portuguese Republic has not indicated the anticipated date for the completion and approval of those plans, nor has it transmitted them to the Commission.
