". – Mr President, an infringement procedure against Greece was opened in 1996 regarding the failure of the Greek authorities to transpose Directive 94/62 on packaging and packaging waste international legislation. In July 1998 the Commission received notification from the Greek authorities on a draft law which would transpose Directive 94/62. However, this draft law was not immediately adopted into Greek legislation and so transposition did not actually occur in 1998.
On 13 April 2000 the European Court of Justice condemned Greece for non-transposition of Directive 94/62.
On 2 May 2000 the Commission requested information from the Greek authorities regarding the measures taken to comply with the Court ruling, but no information was provided. The procedure stemming from Article 228 was initiated against Greece on 8 November 2000 and a reasoned opinion was sent to Greece on 10 April 2001.
On 2 August 2001 Greece adopted Law 2939/2001, thereby transposing Directive No 94/62 into Greek national legislation. The Commission received notification of this law from the Greek authorities on 26 September 2001. This law has satisfactorily incorporated the observations of the Commission concerning the notification text transmitted to the Commission in 1998 and the procedure against Greece under Article 228 regarding transposition of Directive 94/62 was therefore closed on 20 December 2001."@en1
