I refer to a previous Question answered on 22nd September 2009 and to three Questions answered jointly on 6th October about the transposition of the Directive on services in the internal market (Services Directive).
Work on the transposition of the Directive is well advanced. Good progress is being made and transposition is largely on track. The Office of Parliamentary Counsel (OPC) is currently preparing the draft Regulations based on material provided by my Department and set out in the Consultation Document that was the subject of public consultation over the summer.
Following receipt of the draft Regulations, my Department will work closely with the OPC and with other Departments to ensure that the legislation is finalized as quickly as possible, if not by the due date (28 December 2009), then as soon as possible thereafter.
