RECOMMENDATION G: TRANSPOSITION
MEMORANDUM
The Committee wishes to know the outcome of the
careful examination of its recommendation for the provision of
a transposition memorandum together with primary or secondary
legislation giving effect to EU Directives
As indicated in Lord Falconer's letter to the
Committee, the Government is committing itself to making available
to Parliament a memorandum alongside primary or secondary legislation
giving effect to European directives, except where the effort
required would be disproportionate having regard in particular
to the potential benefit to the reader. This memorandum will set
out how the Government will transpose the main elements of the
relevant European directive into UK law. The Government aims to
have this system in place by November 2001.
