Vol. 571 No. 2

Written Answers. - EU Directives.

Aengus Ó Snodaigh

Question:

246 Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Education and Science the extra resources he has authorised to facilitate the enactment of outstanding EU directives; the EU Directives outstanding now; the reason for the delay in each case; and when the backlog will be cleared. [21535/03]

Directive 2001/19 is the only outstanding directive for transposition by my Department. This directive relates to the recognition of professional qualifications. The delay was due to pressure of work in other areas. A draft regulation is being prepared by the relevant sections in my Department and will be sent to a barrister for completion next week. It is hoped to have this directive transposed before the end of the year.
