An action against the French Republic was brought before the Court of Justice of the European Communities on 28 January 2005 by the Commission of the European Communities, represented by Michael Shotter, acting as Agent, with an address for service in Luxembourg.

The Commission of the European Communities claims that the Court should:

1.

declare that, by failing to adopt the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with

—

Directive 2002/19/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on access to, and interconnection of, electronic communications networks and associated facilities (Access Directive) (OJ 2002 L 108, p. 7);

—

Directive 2002/20/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on the authorisation of electronic communications networks and services (Authorisation Directive) (OJ 2002 L 108, p. 21);

—

Directive 2002/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on a common regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services (Framework Directive) (OJ 2002 L 108, p. 33);

or, in any event, by failing to communicate those provisions to the Commission, the French Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 18 of the Access Directive, Article 18 of the Authorisation Directive and Article 28 of the Framework Directive.

2.

order the French Republic to pay the costs.

Pleas in law and main arguments

The period for transposition of the directives into national law expired on 24 July 2003.
