European Union law

An EU regulation complies to an European law. It is binding and applied in all member states of the European Union.

After its adoption, the regulation should be implemented in the regulations of the nation state.  Concerning its objective, it is binding, but every member state is free about the means it needs to implement it. Every regulation contains a transposition deadline. National judicial systems and the European Court of Human Rights have to garanty, that the regulation is applied in a uniform way, respecting the community legislation.
