Abstract
interpretation of the provisions of the Directive 2011/7/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 on combating late payment in commercial transactions. So far the Court of Justice had issued only one judgment in which it had interpreted the provisions of the Directive 2011/7/EU, the judgment in the case Federconsorzi in which the referring court was concerned with the issues of the scope of application of Directive 2011/7/EU rationae materiae and rationae temporis. There are three more pending cases at the Court of Justice in which the referring courts asked for interpretation of the various provisions of Directive 2011/7/EU. This article reviews the judgment of the Court of Justice in Federconsorzi, and also discusses and offers answers to the questions raised by the referring courts in the still pending cases.
