HL Deb 31 October 1990 vol 522 c1897WA
Lord Gregson

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they expect to lay before Parliament regulations implementing Directive 89/48/EEC on the mutual recognition of higher education diplomas and whether they will confirm that these regulations will require Affirmative Resolution.

Lord Hesketh

Following consultation on draft regulations earlier this year, the Government are now preparing revised regulations, taking into consideration comments received on the draft. It is our intention to lay the regulations under Section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 before the end of the year. It will not be possible to judge whether affirmative or negative procedure is appropriate until the contents of the final version of the regulations have been determined.
