4. Risk factors and advantages related to transnational co-operation
Language barrier (French-Dutch in case of Scheldt PRB)
Data availability and comparability
Consultation needed on 2 levels:
internally
between partners
ISC constitutes political basis for decisions  complicates taking of decisions
Risk factors: time-consuming, cost-raising, difficult to harmonise approaches/methods
Advantages: agreements reached are solid basis for further work, complementarity between methods of partners

5. Importance of Interreg funding
Enables intensive transnational co-operation: 20 FTEs from 3 countries (5 regions) working on the Scaldit project
Enables an increased level of communication of dissemination of information on the level of the RBD
Incites the project partners to work towards concrete outputs and within a given timeframe
Enables to have a clear view on the costs of transnational co-operation
Pilot River Basin workshop, Ghent, 4-5 October 2004

6. Conclusions
Co-operation between riparian Scheldt regions increased substantially thanks to the project.
The Scaldit project will provide a solid base for future co-operation and measures in the Scheldt RBD.
