The position regarding the transposition of European directives, for which my Department is responsible, is set out in the accompanying table. Both directives will be transposed by a combined statutory instrument. The drafting of this statutory instrument has recently been completed by Parliamentary Counsel and I expect to be in a position to sign it very shortly.
