CIPP-E Exam - Question 109


Which statement provides an accurate description of a directive?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AB

A directive specifies certain results that must be achieved, but each member state is free to decide how to turn it into a national law. This means that while the directive sets out the desired outcomes, the method of achieving those outcomes is left to the discretion of individual member states. This provides member states with flexibility in how they implement directives into their national legal systems.
