Implementation of the Services Directive
The Service Directive is due to be implemented in Member States by the end of this year. Certain surveys and analysis conducted have shown that there is uneven pace in the transposition processes in individual Member States. The aim of the Workshop was to invite representatives from a selection of Member States to present the state of play of the national implementation. The focus was on the practical implementation of the Points of Single Contact and the potential for reduced administrative burdens for business in the Internal Market. Of special interest was to highlight best practices in the field.
