UK: New Web cookie rules start 25 May, even though the rules don't exist yet

http://j.mp/eLw6oA  (BBC)

     The exact steps that businesses have to go through to comply with the
     law and gain consent from customers and users are being drawn up by
     the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS).

     A spokesman for the DCMS said that work on the regulations was
     "ongoing" but would not be complete by 25 May.

     In a statement, Ed Vaizey, minister for Culture, Communications and
     the Creative Industries, said he recognised that the delay would
     "cause uncertainty for businesses and consumers".
