ON THE GOLD-PLATING IN THE CZECH TRANSPOSITION CONTEXT
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article defines and explicates the concept of gold-plating, i.e. non-minimalistic transposition
of EU directives. It describes its typical manifestations in legislative practice and elaborates when and why it should be avoided. It is submitted in the article that the Czech methodological transposition guidelines and RIA methodology insufficiently deal with the issue of gold-plating. Therefore, the article seeks to propose amendments to the relevant Czech methodology so as to limit the occurrence of unjustified gold-plating in Czech legislation.
