Reasoned opinions were today sent to Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Greece, France, Latvia, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland and Sweden, reprimanding them for their failure to codify the Copyright Directive into their national law. Reasoned opinions are formal communications by the Commission stating that a country is failing to fulfil its duties under EU law, and act as an official call for compliance.
