My Department has not been subject to any fines arising from the non-transposition of EU Directives into Irish law.
My Department has an effective monitoring system in place to ensure all Directives are transposed on time. In addition, my Department engages regularly with the European Commission and the Department of Foreign Affairs on issues that may arise with transposing EU Directives.
