Access to the Labour Market for International Protection Applicants: Discussion
9:00 am
Mr. Nick Henderson:
We expect the statutory instrument to deal with the entirety of the directive. It has to do so. If it does not, the transposition of the directive would not occur and we would not be opting in. We must also bear in mind that the statutory instrument will be given to the European Commission in order that it might review the contents. Some sort of decision would then be given by the Commissioners as to whether the statutory instrument meets the standards set out in the directive.
