It is not anticipated that the European Commission will prepare a separate impact assessment or an assessment of the cost implications of the proposed Framework Directive for Ireland for the protection of soil or any other EU member State. Such an assessment will be done in Ireland in due course according as the consideration of the proposal is advanced and in accordance with the requirements of the Government's Better Regulation initiative on regulatory impact analysis.
