“Regional Environmental Network for Accession” Ref: EuropeAid/128906/C/SER/Multi Official welcoming The meeting was opened by Mr Dimovski by greeting all the participants for coming to the second annual meeting of the WG 1 “Strategic planning and Investments”, who announced that the discussion will be led on the approach and methodology that was applied, whether the activities were in line with the expected results, about any obstacles or problems the participants may have faced during the implementation as well as well as discussion on the planned activities of the WG 1. Mr Dimovski explained the importance of the WG 1 which deals with transposition and, at some extent, with implementation of the environmental acquis; it also covers progress monitoring, capacity building in transposition and implementation process, legal assistance and it works in synergy with other WGs since all WGs under RENA programme are interrelated. Approval of the agenda The proposed agenda was approved by the participants. 1.1 “Preparation of Approximation Strategies” Mr Dimovski presented the implemented activities under Activity 1.1 “Preparation of Approximation Strategies”. The Sub-Regional Training Workshop “Preparing Environmental Approximation Strategy” was held in Prishtina from 3-5 October, 2011. The workshop was requested by Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo under UNSCR 1244/99 due to the urgent need of getting assistance in the start-up activities regarding the Environmental Approximation Strategy. Due to the unavailability of participants Bosnia and Herzegovina cancelled their participation. The training methodology was developed in collaboration with the beneficiaries. Over 16 lectures and power point presentations accompanied with a number of case studies and examples has been provided. Two main topics were covered with sub-topics: - Designing the preparation of approximation strategies and programmes - Economic and Financial Approximation Strategy As the outcome of the workshop the outline for project fiche for NEAS in Kosovo under UNSCR 1244/99 has been developed. The outline will be further used by the authorities in discussion with EC in seeking further assistance. Regional workshop on the Approximation Obligations and the Chapter 27 was implemented in the period 23 – 24 November 2011. Participation of former negotiators from Romania and Lithuania provided hands of experience to the participants. The workshop was particularly important for the countries that are slightly behind with the accession process and provided them with the information needed for better negotiation preparation. 1.2 “Regional Institutional Support Platform”/1.4 “Public Participation” Under Activity 1.2 “Regional Institutional Support Platform” the first regional workshop on Directive 2008/99 (Criminal law)/Directive 2004/35/EC (Environmental liability) was organized in Zagreb (20-21 May, 2011). Second regional workshop on Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and (EC) 1907/2006 (REACH) was organized in Istanbul, Turkey (11-12 October, 2011). The workshop was delivered by RENA KE 1/TL Mr Ike van der Putte and SSTEs and it was a highly technical meeting. Mr Dimovski added that there are on-going preparations for the third Regional meeting on INSPIRE Directive. He shortly explained that this Directive is new and it requires effort by the countries to implement it. The contacts have been made with the Austrian Environmental Agency to jointly organise the workshop. The agreement has been reached to organise the workshop on 17 and 18 January 2012 in the premises of Austrian Environmental Agency in Vienna, Austria. Under Activity 1.2, the project team will provide the update of the Handbook on Implementation of the environmental acquis. The handbook presents the most interesting publications of the EC.
