EU commissioner has doubts about Sunday shopping rules
EU internal market commissioner Michel Barnier has misgivings about draft legislation to tighten up Sunday trading laws, Nos tv reports on Friday.
The legislation, currently being dealt with in the upper house of parliament (senate) will restrict Sunday shopping to 12 days a year unless the area is considered a tourist attraction.
Barnier is concerned about the vagueness of the definition of tourism, Nos says.
