On May 28, 2015, the European Commission published a press release announcing that it has requested 11 member states (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, France, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Malta, Poland, Romania, and Sweden) to fully implement the BRRD.

The member states in question have failed to meet the deadline of December 31, 2014 for incorporating the BRRD into their national law. If any of the countries fail to comply within two months, the Commission may decide to refer them to the European Court of Justice.
