An action against the Hellenic Republic was brought before the Court of Justice of the European Communities on 9 February 2005 by the Commission of the European Communities, represented by Dimitris Triandafillou, Legal Adviser, with an address for service in Luxembourg.

|
2. |
order the Hellenic Republic to pay the costs. |
