ICYMI: In December, the @EUCommission has opened an infringement procedure against #Belgium for failing to correctly transpose the EU's #DrinkingWater Directive, which is supposed to protect human health by updating water quality standards and tackling pollutants, such as #EndocrineDisruptors and #microplastics.

Apparently, Belgium has failed to update its risk assessments for domestic distribution systems, and to make available mandatory information to the public. 馃

December infringements package: key decisions

In its regular package of infringement decisions, the European Commission takes legal action against Member States that fail to comply with their obligations under EU law. These decisions, covering various EU policy areas, aim to ensure the proper application of EU law for the benefit of citizens and businesses.

On the same day, the EU Commission launched an infringement procedure against #Hungary for failing to implement the European Media Freedom Act #EMFA + the Audiovisual Media Services Directive #AVMSD:

"Hungary does not comply with provisions re interference in the work of #journalists", "restricting their economic activities and editorial freedom."

Nor "offer adequate protection of journalistic sources & confidential comms, nor effective judicial protection when these rights are breached."
