European Commission launches infringement proceedings against the UK following its failure to name a candidate for EU Commissioner.
As the UK was due to leave the EU on 31 October, before the new Commission was to take up its duties (initially on 1 November 2019), the UK government communicated its intention not to propose a candidate for the Commission, a decision that has been maintained even following the extension of the withdrawal date to 31 January 2020.
