The deadline for the transposition of Council Directive 2000/43/EC implementing the principle of equal treatment between persons irrespective of racial or ethnic origin was 19 July 2003, and the deadline for Council Directive 2000/78/EC establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation was December 2003 with the possibility of an additional three years to transpose the provisions on age and disability discrimination. For the new Member States, the deadline for the transposition of both directives was 1 May 2004.
In its role as guardian of the Treaties, the Commission has launched infringement proceedings against Member States which have failed to transpose the race discrimination and employment framework directives into national law by the abovementioned deadlines. Five Member States have been referred to the European Court of Justice for their failure to transpose the racial equality directive into national law.
For those Member States which have already transposed the directives, the Commission is currently examining in detail the national legislation to check that it accurately reflects the requirements of the directives. Should this not be the case, the Commission will take the appropriate measures."@en1
