Participants of the EG group are invited to discuss the following points: Has the mandate of the EG been successfully completed, or are there issues which should have been looked into more? Do you think that the group has achieved its goals and given added value to the better implementation of the WFD? Have you integrated and used the outcomes of the EG in your work in your Member State? How? If water directors decide to continue the mandate of this or some similar expert group, what issues should be raised to its mandate?
