    Pleas in law and main arguments

    In its judgment of 29 March 2012 in Case C-607/10 European Commission v Kingdom of Sweden, the Court held that ‘1. … by failing to take the necessary measures to ensure that the competent national authorities see to it, by means of permits issued in accordance with Articles 6 and 8 of Directive 2008/1/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 January 2008 concerning integrated pollution prevention and control (Codified version) or, as appropriate, by reconsidering and, where necessary, by updating the conditions, that all existing installations operate in accordance with the requirements of Articles 3, 7, 9, 10 and 13, Article 14(a) and (b) and Article 15(2) of that directive, the Kingdom of Sweden has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 5(1) of that directive.’

    The Kingdom of Sweden has not yet adopted any measures to comply with the judgment of the Court of Justice in Case C-607/10. The Commission has therefore brought this action in accordance with Article 260(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and seeks an order imposing economic sanctions on the Kingdom of Sweden.
