Guideance Document on Reporting about the Experience Gained in Application of Directive 2003/4/EC


Article 9, paragraph 1 of Directive 2003/4/EC (Environmental Information Directive)states:

„Not later than 14 February 2009, Member States shall report on the experience gained in the application of this Directive. They shall communicate the report to the Commission not later than 14 August 2009. No later than 14 February 2004, the Commission shall forward to the Member States a guidance document setting out clearly
the manner in which it wishes the Member States to report.“

Almost 3 years later than requested in the directive, a working group of Member States experts has on behalf of the European Commission agreed on a Guideance Document.
