  7. How itwouldwork? • Data collection as part of SoEF • Calculation of size-neutralindicators, identification of countries/indicatorswhere warning levelsurpassed • Dialogue with national correspondents (measured warning levelisonly first filter, not final judgement): • Accuracy of data • Background and context • Policy response • Publication of agreed « areas of concern » - withpolicyresponse - and regionalsynthesis
