(6)In its final report of 15 February 2001 the Committee of Wise Men proposed the introduction of new legislative techniques based on a four-level approach, namely framework principles, implementing measures, cooperation and enforcement. Level 1, the directive, should confine itself to broad, general "framework" principles, while Level 2 should contain technical implementing measures to be adopted by the Commission with the assistance of a committee.
