TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the infrastructure of EWC training in Europe and highlight the significance of European Commission funding for transnational meetings in advance of the implementation of the Directive, highlighting the absence of explicit reference to training for European works councillors in both the 1994 Directive and its transposed form in national legislation.
Abstract: This article highlights the absence of explicit reference to training for European works councillors in both the 1994 Directive and its transposed form in national legislation. Analysis of `Article 13' voluntary agreements reveals a similar lack of attention to the issue. The authors examine the infrastructure of EWC training in Europe and highlight the significance of European Commission funding for transnational meetings in advance of the implementation of the Directive. The absence of a requirement in the Directive and a reduction in Commission funding will have implications for the organization and delivery of EWC training and ultimately for the effectiveness of multinational consultation and information procedures in the future.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the implementation of the European Union's Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices in the United Kingdom by the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 assesses the likely impact on the national law governing the marketing practices of rogue traders, including its ambition to simplify and extend legal protection, and the likely success of the Directive in achieving the harmonisation of the laws and practices regulating marketing in Europe.
Abstract: This examination of the implementation of the European Union's Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices in the United Kingdom by the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 assesses the likely impact on the national law governing the marketing practices of rogue traders, including its ambition to simplify and extend legal protection, and the likely success of the Directive in achieving the harmonisation of the laws and practices regulating marketing in Europe. In particular, the discussion evaluates the regulatory strategy of the Directive in its attempt to secure uniform laws through the combination of principles, rules, and concrete examples of prohibited practices. The paper also investigates the likely impact of the Regulations on the private law of contract and tort and the possibilities for improvements in a consumer's personal right of redress.

TL;DR: The emergence of new principles which fully take into account the new Privacy threats incurred by individuals, due to the characteristics of modern and future information systems on a more and more global interactive and convergent Internet are described.
Abstract: The main purpose of this contribution is not to analyse provision by provision the E-Privacy Directive presently in course of revision, but to describe the emergence of new principles which, in our view, might be considered as going far beyond the traditional principles enshrined in the Council of Europe Convention 108 and already translated in the E.U. Directive 95/46/EC. These new principles fully take into account the new Privacy threats incurred by individuals, due to the characteristics of modern and future information systems on a more and more global interactive and convergent Internet.
