Commission sends Cyprus reasoned opinion on biodiversity, formal notice on flooding and EU budget

The European Commission is sending a reasoned opinion to Cyprus and another 14 member states calling them to implement provisions on the prevention and management of the introduction and spread of invasive alien species.

The Commission’s regular package of infringement decisions for February 202, released on Wednesday, also includes two letters of formal notice sent to Cyprus, concerning the need to update flood risk maps and to transpose EU rules to fight fraud against the Union’s budget.

The package also includes references to two open infringement procedures against multiple member states, including Cyprus, due to the decision to send reasoned opinions to additional member states on EU rules to protect whistle-blowers and the European Arrest Warrant.
