4. E xternal incentives continue to be the major drive for reforms where the EU is the number one. Complimentary information is provided by EII. 2011-2012, 8 experts of 6 EaP countries Sector specific assessment. Questions covered 1) environmental policy (incl MEAs) 2) sustainable development policy 3) resource efficiency 4) Climate change 5) pressure to/ state of environment 6) sustainable development and trade Helped to make a link between policy and state of environment/ resource efficiency Good exercise to integrate environment and sustainable development into multitopic CSO research

5. Priorities of ENP SD&environmental objectives Basic requirements of SD Summits Key prerequisite of obligatory EPI Eastern Partnership Flagship initiative on good governance (admin. str., SEIS, MEAs –AC, Espoo) Key elements of AA (FTA, SBS in Environment) The data should be available in each of 6 country Major environmental performance indicators

6. TOTAL 0,610,760,530,560,610,53 Environmental policy UAMDBYGEARAZ Strategy and Action plan on National environmental policy. Is it adopted by the Parliament/ Government? Yes/ No 1,000,700,500,000,800,10 Environmental policy integration. Is it demanded by National legislation?

7. Moldova is leading on EPI, thus on topic Ukraine recently adopted new Env Strategy and NEAP as required by Association Agenda But – 3 non-compliance in 2011, one withdrawn Armenia is the only country ratified SEA Georgia adopted 2 nd generation of NEAP MEAs: Ukraine is leading in number, but behind in reporting and compliance (active public phenomena)

9. No NSDS, except Armenia (recently ratified programme) NSDC are not functional (except Armenia), though are established in majority 10-years SCP policy framework is planned Ukraine ratified 69 ILO Conventions, 60 are in force, Moldova – 42 and 40 Only Moldova adopted law against illegal fishery Control of legal trade in forestry is a bit better

13. 12 indicators shown: Belarus has the best environmental situation, followed by Gerogia and Moldova, and Ukraine – the worst The result correlates with Yale University Environmental Performance Index Total annual volume of municipal waste p. c. is still lower than in EU-27 (< consumption) Soil erosion is very high, Ukraine is leading Natural protected areas are too small

14. TOTAL ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT UAMDBYGEARAZ 0,470,660,640,570,560,51 Despite some success in policy elaboration and international cooperation, all EaP countries lag behind in resource efficiency, and state of/ impact to environment (environmental performance). Ukraine as the biggest country in Europe in territory inherited heavy environemntal consequences from USSR (heavy industry and conventional agriculture). One of the reason to explain the largest gap among EaP countries between modern environemntal policy and modest so far success in its implementation.

15. The latest public administration reforms weaken administrative structures and procedures (10218) Strategic planning (and reporting) was improved in advanced AA negotiating countries (SBS indicators) Environmental policy integration is generally not backed up with legislation (SEA Pr – Armenia) Deregulation leads to elimination of EIA procedure (fracking) Mechanisms and procedures for PP are absent SEIS potential for improving the quality of information for EDM could be used better (env. data collection – EaP Roadmap)
