  • Reports of Cases
    Report s of C ases OPINION OF ADVOCATE GENERAL KOKOTT delivered on 18 February 2016 1 Case C-504/14 European Commission v Hellenic Republic (Nature conservation — Directive 92/43/EEC — Conservation of natural habitats and of wild species — Occurrence of the Caretta caretta sea turtle in Kyparissia Bay — ‘Kyparissia Sand Dunes’ Site of Community importance — Protection of species) I – Introduction 1. While the Court was confronted with an almost catastrophic population conservation status when it delivered its decision on the European hamster in French Alsace, 2 the present case concerns a more pleasing situation. In recent years, the beaches of Kyparissia Bay on the west coast of the Peloponnese have become the most important breeding site for the Caretta caretta sea turtle in the European Union following a steady increase in the number of its nests. 3 That development may also be one of the reasons why, in 2015, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources ‘ ’ (IUCN) assessed the Mediterranean sea turtle population as being of least concern , the lowest threat 4 level in its rating system. 2. One can only congratulate Greece and the non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that have been committed to the protection of sea turtles for over 20 years on these successes. 3. Nevertheless, further conservation measures are being called for, not only by the Commission, in the 5 light of the Habitats Directive, but also by the Standing Committee of the Convention on the 6 7 Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats. So far as concerns the protection of species, the Commission’s criticism is directed, first, at the protective provisions specifically prescribed 1 — Original language: German.
