  3. CommentstoQuestion 1 • Why are we are trying to expand what we have when we have such great gaps in the dataflows today? More efforts should be made by the EEA to help MS to help meet present requirements. • Difficult to explore new areas where we have not agreed on indicators for common implementation framework

  4. CommentstoQuestion 1 • Emphasize not increasing the burden • First priority is Aichi targets A indicators. C category more relevant for national levels. • SEBI and Aichi indicators often the same. • Thread of flexibility. Reporting to European level and global – should have flexibility • Need to harmonize data

  5. New dataflows • Ecosytem services indicator • IAS – data available in a numberofcountries in variousstatesofavailability(i.e. UK, Norway, Switzerlandcandelivertoday), gaps in others • Bats – data availablethroughBatlife (Eurobats. Important for public awareness • Insects • NumberofNGO’s

  6. Question 2 – general comments • Problem with mobilization of data, financial resources needed to be accessed.
