Ten years ago, the gap between the number of single-market laws adopted in Brussels and those in force in the member states – known as the “transposition deficit” – stood at 6%. Faced with this poor record, in 2001 the European Council committed itself to achieving a target of no more than 1.5% at any given time.
十年前，布鲁塞尔通过的单一市场法律数量与在各成员国生效的法律数量之间的差距—被称为“转换赤字”—是6%。面对这样一个不良纪录，欧洲理事会在2001年承诺实现使该赤字在任何时候都不高于1.5%的目标。
