Commission v Italy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Commission v Italy may refer to:

  • In Commission v Italy (1968), Italy was not allowed to tax the export of art treasures. This case was important because it helped define the meaning of the word "goods" under European Law.
  • In Commission v Italy (1972), Italy failed to enforce EU Dairy Regulations on time.
  • In Commission v Italy (2003), Italy had wrongly limited the use of the word "chocolate" to products without vegetable fat.
  • In Commission v Italy (2009), Italy wrongly banned motorcycles and mopeds from pulling trailers, which affected imported goods because Italian manufacturers didn't make such goods.
  • In Commission v Italy (2011), Italy could not require lawyers to abide by maximum tariffs, unless the client agreed, because this discouraged lawyers from other Member States from moving to Italy.
