Pleas in law and main arguments
The Hellenic Republic has failed to conclude the agreement provided for by Article 30 of Directive 2012/34 on railway infrastructure with the infrastructure manager (OSE). However, the agreement should have been concluded before 16 June 2015 (Article 64 of the directive) and should have included all the information set out in Annex V.
