| 单词 | directive |
| 释义 | directive directive a legislative Act of the EUROPEAN UNION produced by theCOUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION and the COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. It directs MEMBER STATES to produce a certain effect within a certain time. This achieves the Community goal while respecting national differences. The member state need not legislate if it can achieve the same result by administrative measures. One of the most recent to have considerable effect in PRIVATE LAW was the DIRECTIVE on PRODUCT LIABILITY. Failure to comply can result in action before the COURT OF JUSTICE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION at the instigation of the Com- mission. Directives are not directly applicable (see DIRECT APPLICABIL- ITY) but they can have DIRECT EFFECT. |
