    Abstract

    This paper considers the impact of EC legislation on the law, practice and politics of water policy implementation in the UK, focusing in particular on the 1980 Drinking Water Directive, a Directive which has prompted Government Ministers and others to question publicly the merits of EC intervention. In our view, implementation is a key stage of the legislative process which cannot be taken as a straightforward administrative follow-on from policy decisions but a stage which can have a significant impact on policy outcomes. Here, we focus on practical rather than formal implementation.
