The conclusions of Advocate General Jääskinen in the matter of the infringement proceedings against Germany regarding the scope of the term "water services" in Article 9 of the Water Framework Directive are now available. In these he considers that the action brought by the Commission against the narrow interpretation in Germany which is restricted to water supply and waste water disposal is inadmissible due to the fact that there is no complaint in respect of any clearly defined conduct that would constitute an infringement; in the alternative he materially agrees in full with the position put forward by Germany. However this paper argues that the AG's main arguments in favour of a strict interpretation are misleading.
