Brussels, 21/11/2013 (Agence Europe) - On 20 November, the European Commission sent a reasoned opinion (second stage of the infringement preceding) to Luxembourg, which has failed to observe European rules on electronic indications. Article 16(6) of the legislation stipulates that national regulators must carry out an analysis of their relevant markets to check they are competitive and to ensure that consumers and companies benefit from the best products in terms of prices, choice and innovation. Regulators must then send their analysis to the Commission as well as any possible corrective measures they intend to take, over the next three years. Luxembourg has not provided an analysis for three of its seven appropriate markets since 2008 or even 2006 for some of them. The country has not requested an extension of the deadline or sought assistance from the European Regulators body, as stipulated in the European rules. Luxembourg has two months to respond to the Commission's reasoned opinion. (IL/transl.fl)
