Twin engine requirement.

On a commercial airliner what are the rquirements regarding one engine failure during takeoff? I though that all aircraft with two engines had to be able to take off, fully loaded, if one engine fails. At Durham Tees Valley an a/c lost an engine as it was about to lift off. The pilot aborted safely but the newsapaper comment was that he would not have got off the ground on one engine.
