A significant amendment to the Statute of the Court of Justice of the European Union entered into force on Sunday 1 September. The amendment provides for a transfer, applicable from 1 October 2024, from the Court of Justice to the General Court of part of the jurisdiction to give preliminary rulings.
The transfer concerns six specific areas: the common system of VAT; excise duties; the Customs Code; the tariff classification of goods; compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding or of delay or cancellation of transport services; and the system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading.
