I'm completely confused by this situation and some clarity really would
be appreciated. Where in the directive does it say you that can't
currently claim compliance to the RED (well, as of 11 June 2015 - see
below).
It is very confusing and that affects even government agencies. Many
things in EU legislation are not explicit, so for those things a legal
opinion is required. But legal opinions can be abstruse and even
inconsistent.
I am told that the British government works on the basis of Directives
being instructions to member states to make laws, not laws in themselves
(as EU Regulations are). So no *law* exists until a Directive has been
implemented in national law by at least one member state. Until that
happens, RED has no significance to industry, national regulatory bodies
or the public.
