  "short_title": "Architects (Recognition of European Qualifications etc and Saving and Transitional Provision) 2008",
  "long_title": "These Regulations implement, in part, Directive 2005/36/EC (“the Directive”) on the recognition of professional qualifications. The Directive is designed to remove obstacles to free movement of persons and services within the Community, so that nationals of the Member States have the right to pursue a profession in a Member State other than the one in which they have obtained their qualifications. This is achieved by the Directive providing for the automatic recognition of certain specified qualifications, and for a procedure for assessing other qualifications for the purpose of giving access to a profession. There is also a procedure to allow those wishing to provide services on a temporary and occasional basis to practise a profession on this basis.",
