- W611504287 abstract "This chapter offers a snapshot of the national postal laws of Europe as they stood in mid2006. By this time all of the then 25 member states of the European Union (EU) – even the 10 countries from eastern and southern Europe who joined in early 2004 – had had a minimum of several years to implement the Postal Directive of 1997 as amended in 2002.1 In 2006, the first draft of a third directive on postal services was still over the horizon.2 A look back at the state of play in mid-2006 offers both an opportunity to evaluate how earlier reforms turned out in fact and a glimpse into what may be expected in the wake of the recent amendment to the Postal Directive to accomplish ‘full market opening’.3 In the EU, a ‘directive’ is a framework law adopted at EU level institutions. To give effect to a directive, member states must adopt national laws that implement the directive. National laws may implement a directive in different ways and in some cases may fail to implement a directive fully. A directive, therefore, leaves room for substantial variation in national postal policies. A survey of postal practices among member states of the EU, prepared for the European Commission by the authors, revealed a persistent diversity of national postal traditions within the framework of reforming and harmonizing demands set down in the Postal Directive. Of course, these national variations were shaped in part by different appetites for the liberalizing course set by the Postal Directive. But national variations also showed the value of multiple solutions to the same basic task, implementation of the Directive. In several cases, member states developed innovative approaches that advanced the art of postal regulation and thus helped to lay the foundation for the most recent directive. Section 2 provides an overview of postal reform in Europe. Section 3 summarizes how different member states have chosen to implement the specific commands of the Postal Directive. In organization, it follows the sequence of topics in the Directive. Section 4 offers a few final observations." @default.
