Single European Act

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Financial, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Single European Act

Act signed in 1986 (and in force from July 1987) to establish a single European market, defined as an area without frontiers in which free movement of goods, services, people, and capital is ensured.

The act was the first major revision of the Treaties of Rome. It provided for greater involvement of the European Parliament in the decision-making process, and the introduction of qualified majority voting in the Council of Ministers (now the Council of the European Union) for some policy areas. In addition, it included provisions concerning collaboration in research and development and in environmental policy.

The Tories knew this when they signed up the UK to what was then known as the EEC in 1973, Mrs Thatcher knew it when she signed the Single European Act, and Mr Cameron's proposed Sovereignty Bill is simply not worth the paper it would be written on.
Since withdrawing from the EC was impossible by 1979, the response to economic problems was to deepen integration in the Single European Act of 1987.
Let's not forget Mrs Thatcher, who signed the Single European Act and John Major the Maastricht Treaty, both of which took Britain further and deeper into Europe than any Treaty before or since.
