An analysis of the transposition of the acquis communautaire on the Single Market in the European Union

By ML. Reald KETA

The article focuses on a very limited, though highly significant, aspect in the analyses that can be made regarding the regulation, development, and performance of the European Union’s Single Market.
The article’s analysis is primarily based on the findings and data from the European Union’s reports on the annual performance of the Single Market. The article attempts to briefly highlight several indicators of the progress in the alignment of legislation concerning the Single Market, such as the transposition deficit of directives, the conformity deficit of directives, and delays in the alignment of directives.
