Another explanation is that many of the market's original 282 directive have already been imple-mented." By Jan.1 we will have passed 95% of what we sought in 1986 to create the single mar-ket, and much of that will already have been translated into national law," said Perissich, European Community director-general for the single market. "Adjustment to the market has been going on for years and won't be expected over-night".
Perissich agrees that the current weakness of European leadership is a problem, but he adds that the single market is now largely in the hands of all Europeans. "What the community has com-pleted rather well is the legal framework , but it is not a blueprint for how the single market will actu-ally work,"says Perissich."They have to invent their own single market according to their tastes, imagination, and ambition,"he adds.“That^’s not for us to say from here."
How would you interpret the word "translate"?
