Moreover, to promote the implemented EE measures - including those by the public in the different

Actions additional to the recommendations for the institutional set up and legal framework - indicated
in the previous paragraph - at the national level to support municipalities in the development and
implementation of SEAPs (SECAPs) are listed in the below table, including the responsible entities to
take or initiate such actions.
Table 3 indicates the Long-term actions at national level to support SEAPs’ (SECAPs) implementation.
The measure in the below table will need a longer timeframe (up to five years) before they can all be
in place. As a later stage the NGC members would set priorities for these action, as from their gained
experience, they have the best perspective on which action would be the most successful, or the
quickest. This could be a discussion point for their next meeting with CES‐MED project’s Nation Focal
Point (NFP) – Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA).
The question arises, what could be done on the short-term with the support of CES‐MED, currently
in place? These actions are listed in Table 3.
