EU commission takes five nations to court

The European Union's head office decided Tuesday to take legal action against Spain, Greece, Estonia, Ireland and Luxembourg for failing to adopt EU laws to open up gas and electricity markets. The European Commission also sent a warning to Portugal for delays in adopting the legislation. It said the six countries had failed to meet deadlines for fully implementing the laws designed to break up traditional energy monopolies and usher in free competition.
