At the regular meeting of CoR’s commission for energy, environment and climate (ENVE) on 24.02.2016, the main question was how can EU law be better implemented for the safeguard of our environment and what mechanisms and tools can be developed to improve administrative practices in monitoring and reporting environmental law compliance in Europe. The answer to these questions were given by the Andres Jaadla (ET\/ALDE), member of Rakvere City Council, who is the rapporteur of\u00a0\u2018EU environment law: improving reporting and compliance\u2019, a\u00a0European Committee of the Regions Outlook Opinion.<\/p>\n

Today, there is an unsatisfactory level of implementation of environmental law in Europe with a lack of coherence and consistency in reporting compliance assurance requirements across EU environmental law. EU’s assembly of local and regional authorities has put forward a set of measures to improve environmental reporting, monitoring and compliance for the benefit of local and regional authorities (LRAs), which are responsible for executing 70% of environmental legislation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe first need to undertake a comprehensive inventory of environmental monitoring and reporting obligations and an assessment of administrative costs endured by cities and regions\u201d, recommended\u00a0Andres Jaadla. \u201cWe suggest setting up an experts group to advice on how to improve the quality and coherence of the EU environmental acquis and to strengthen IMPEL, the EU Network for the Implementation and Enforcement of Environmental Law,\u201d added Rakvere\u2019s city counsellor.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Among CoR\u2019s proposals is to automatize and digitalize reporting tools, to establish guidance documents and ‘implementation scorecards” and to further promote “Structured Implementation and Information Frameworks”. The CoR highlights specific good examples in environmental monitoring and reporting such as\u00a0WISE, an EU data collection and information service on water.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cSpatial information and earth observation tools such as GMES, GEOSS and Eyeon Earth should be further developed for streamlining environmental monitoring and reporting. INSPIRE is a key e-Government tool that can make compliance assurance and enforcement of EU environmental legislation more efficient\u201d, added\u00a0Andres Jaadla.<\/p>\n

CoR’s input has been requested by the European Commission\u00a0in the framework of the\u00a0REFIT initiative\u00a0for better EU regulation, as EC fitness check on streamlining environmental monitoring and reporting requirements is to be delivered in 2017.<\/p>\n
