The long transposition periods in implementing a directive (sometimes expanding to 2–3 years) as well as the two-stages procedure of secondary low legislative process generate justifiable arguments that this processe lacks democratic legitimacy. The reason is that the past majority – very oft en delegitimized later on in forthcoming elections – expands its mandate in time over the new majority, which may differ significantly in terms of preferences and orientation. This creates discontinuity problem, which enriches the democratic deficit discourse that has tradition reaching the 70. XX century. The author uses decision theory framework as well as multi-level governance approach which are the most adequate theoretical vehicles in the proposed analysis.
