BRUSSELS (AFX) - The European Commission has sent a letter to the Spanish government, querying its stance over E.ON's bid for Endesa and has asked for a reply within ten working days.
'We can confirm we sent a letter to Spain on Friday evening in relation to the recent events concerning E.ON's bid for Endesa and especially the response of the Spanish authorities to this approach which has given the commission cause for concern,' said Oliver Drewes, spokesperson for EU internal market commission Charlie McCreevy.
