EU: Single Market deadlines to be met
At the Internal Market Council on 24 September, MS will be urged to keep to deadlines for the adoption of single market laws in time for the launch of the Euro in January 1999. “The complete, effective and timely implementation of directives in all MS as well as the proper and efficient enforcement of Community rules is a basic precondition for the smooth operation of the single market”, states the Austrian Presidency. It will also be calling on the Commission to accelerate its procedures when dealing with violations of single market laws.
