The main authorities responsible for the implementation are authorities at the national level, and a big role is played by regions and the municipalities. It should be noted, that a large number of institutions are involved, making the administrative set-up difficult to overview and to some extend not transparent. 2013-02-05 Nordic/Irish workshop on measure library3

6. To change/update/remove ”Presentation title” and ”Name” in the footer, go to ”Insert – Header & Footer” EU-commission examine Swedish PoM:s Sweden needs to improve its programme of measures to be more explicit on the specific measures that are being planned, to enable a transparent planning tool showing how the environmental objectives can be met in a coordinated manner across the RBDs. Meaningful information regarding the scope, the timing and the funding of the measures should be included in the programme of measures so the approach to achieve the objectives is clear. 2013-02-05 Nordic/Irish workshop on measure library6

Many of the measures are "administrative" (new investigations, monitoring etc). 2013-02-05 Nordic/Irish workshop on measure library7

13. To change/update/remove ”Presentation title” and ”Name” in the footer, go to ”Insert – Header & Footer” Additional measures in protected areas The RBMP does not clearly identify the protected areas, which will not reach the more stringent objectives according to other directives.. On the other hand, it is stated in the RBMPs, that the PoM should also cover the needs for improvement in protected areas – indicating that the measures to be taken should also ensure the fulfilment of the more stringent objectives related to other directives. In SE 5 it is stated that the favourable conservation status for NATURA 2000 areas have not been used as a more stringent objective in the RBMP’s, as the status assessment regarding NATURA 2000 areas has not yet been quality assured. It is mentioned, that the line between good and poor ecological status according to the RBMP usually is a good indicator for a favourable conservation status too. Regarding the protection of drinking water, a number of administrative measures to support the basic measures are mentioned in the RBMP’s, but not defined as supplementary or additional. Examples are collection and storage of information, monitoring, planning, statistics etc. 2013-02-05 Nordic/Irish workshop on measure library13
