It's not uncommon that there is a bit of unclarity about the way EU-rules should be interpreted. There is always a certain margin of error, which is what you get when you develop laws for 25 different countries. What Scottisch Water should have done straight away is launch an appeal at the European Court of Justice, which is far more qualified for dealing with these issues. They've got all the specialists on European law. [img]smile.gif[/img] Of course, this is also far more dangerous, as you can't appeal against their decisions. That's why most groups/people try the national courts first. Still, since SW does not have the luxery of time, I can't help but wonder if they should have taken the risk. And Magik, it's great that you're taking an interest in European politics, but be careful when using blogs from Eureferendum. They're dedicated to bringing down the EU, so don't expect any kind of positive coverage or objectivity from them.
