Hi Richard & Treg Interesting question! The Statutory Instrument is used to bring something into UK law. I'm not sure if the RTTE directive will become law via statutory instrument. I'm not sure even if this requires a statutory instrument.
This is an "new approach" EU harmonised directive which differs from the former EC directives which were approximations of the laws of member states. In this case, the directive itself is legally binding EU wide so, will it need a statutory instrument be drawn up? the directive must be implemented "as is" EU wide and the various governments have until April 2000 to put in place the necessary systems. Perhaps check the RA and DTI websites.
