Regional coordination
Nederland is verdragpartij bij OSPAR (Trb. 1993, 16). De Minister van Infrastructuur en Waterstaat is verantwoordelijk voor de samenwerking en afstemming in regionaal OSPAR-verband. Hiervoor bestaan onder OSPAR verschillende werkvormen waar Nederland in participeert. Een overzicht van deze werkvormen is te vinden op www.ospar.org. OSPAR is de enige regionale conventie die zich specifiek voor de Noordzee richt op de implementatie van de KRM. Daarnaast is er nog een aantal conventies en koepelorganisaties waaraan Nederland deelneemt die indirect invloed hebben op de invulling en uitvoering van de KRM. Het gaat dan bijvoorbeeld om IMO, UNCLOS en de BONN Agreement.

Where is the MSFD implemented?

MSFD Article Art. 3(1) Marine waters
Report date 2018-10-01
Access reports View all reports
Member state marine waters
The Dutch Marine Strategy relates to the Dutch part of the North Sea. This coverage comprises the water, the seabed and the subsoil seaward of the base line from where the width of the territorial sea is measured. The outer limit of the coverage is defined by the international boundaries of the Dutch Continental Shelf (also the boundary of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)). The Oosterschelde, the Westerschelde and the Wadden Sea are beyond the coverage of the Marine Strategy; although these areas clearly do relate to the North Sea they are already fully protected under the Birds Directive and the Habitats Directive (together the BHD) and are, as such, designated Natura 2000 areas. They are also governed by the Water Framework Directive (WFD). This safeguards the ecological protection of these areas.

Art. 8 nature of coordination
1. There has been a high level of information sharing and joint assessment in the North-East Atlantic through the work of the OSPAR Commission. 2. The OSPAR Intermediate Assessment (IA) 2017 provides a basis for coordination of national assessments across the North-East Atlantic. OSPAR Contracting Parties (CP’s) that are also EU Member States have the opportunity to use the information presented in the IA 2017 for their update in 2018 to the EU on the initial assessment (2012) for the MSFD. However, it should be noted that at this point in time, OSPAR IA 2017 indicator assessment values are not necessarily equivalent to EU MSFD criteria threshold values. 3. The IA 2017 is a summary of the current understanding and knowledge supporting the implementation of the OSPAR Thematic Strategies. It is a compilation of 47 assessments that demonstrates the close cooperation and coordination between OSPAR CP’s, as well as with other regional organisations. 4. The IA 2017 builds on assessment processes developed by OSPAR over many years and includes the assessment of recently developed new indicators e.g. in the field of biodiversity, marine litter and underwater noise. The EcApRHA project, co-financed by the EU DG Environment, has significantly contributed to the development of regional indicators for pelagic habitats, benthic habitats and food webs. 5. The IA 2017 presents new and developing aspects in the areas of socio-economics and ecosystem assessment of the OSPAR area. Both areas are of increasing relevance, but a common typology and methodology among OSPAR CP’s needs further development. The next OSPAR Quality Status Report (QSR) could capture such descriptions. 6. OSPAR has developed an assessment portal and a data and information portal, which will enable better collaboration and data exchange between CP’s and other organisations, and support the EU MSFD-reporting obligation. 7. There is still a lack of harmonized valuation methods and indicator assessment values for a number of indicators. Therefore the national Initial Assessments are not always comparable. However, so far no country has flagged major inconsistencies in the conclusions of neighbouring national initial assessments.
Art. 8 regional coherence
Partial
Art. 8 regional coherence problems
As the IA2017 lacks regionally agreed threshold values for some indicators, GES determinations and the integration of indicator assessment results, it does not always provide robust conclusions on the quality status of OSPAR waters. Therefore, EU Member States had to strike a balance between the need to nationally express the extent to which GES has been achieved, in order to meet MSFD requirements, and the degree to which the regionally coordinated IA2017 could be used in this process.
Art. 9 countries involved
NO, CH, FR, IS, LU, NL, UK, PT, , BE, DE, ES, FI, IE, SE, DK,
Art. 9 nature of coordination
1. There has been a moderate level of information sharing in the development of coherent good environmental status (GES) determinations at descriptor and criteria level through the OSPAR Commission. 2. OSPAR supports the cooperation between EU Member States towards coherent and measurable determinations of GES - where possible and appropriate - based on the best available knowledge. The ICG-MSFD will continue to identify opportunities for (sub)regionally coherent GES determinations and common GES determinations where appropriate inter alia on the basis of the agreed common indicators.. 3. In the process of updating the EU GES Commission Decision (2017/848/EU) OSPAR Contracting Parties have collaborated and jointly contributed to the process from the OSPAR perspective. 4. The current assessment values that have been proposed during development of the OSPAR indicators as part of IA 2017, remain exploratory, and may be revised in advance of any subsequent OSPAR assessment. Furthermore, such values are not systematically indicative of GES under the MSFD. 5. In 2017/2018. an analysis was conducted in order to assess the fit of the existing OSPAR indicators with the GES Commission Decision. Mismatches and gaps were identified regarding criteria, lists of elements, threshold values and integration / aggregation rules. Resources needed to develop the required solutions have been estimated. The OSPAR Commission agreed the priority is to address the Primary Criteria as described in the Commission Decision. From 2018 onwards OSPAR Committees will be working to address the requirements of the Commission Decision.
Art. 9 regional coherence
Partial
Art. 9 regional coherence problems
After the adoption of the GES Commission Decision there was no time left for joint work on GES determinations because member states were focusing efforts on national reporting. There is lack of scientific knowledge, consensus on methodologies and/or political support for setting coordinated, quantified threshold values and GES determinations.
Art. 10 countries involved

Art. 10 nature of coordination
1. There has been a low level of information sharing on the development of coordinated environmental targets and indicators. 2. OSPAR aims to contribute to strengthening regional coordination in the implementation of the MSFD and to ensuring coherence with regard to the establishment of environmental targets. 3. In 2018/2019 ICG-MSFD will share information on national targets for five Descriptors, or parts of Descriptors (marine litter, mobile species, non-indigenous species, underwater noise and nutrients) and develop a way forward towards coherent environmental targets in the third cycle of the MSFD. 4. OSPAR strives towards more coordination between its North-East Atlantic Environment Strategy and environmental targets set for the implementation of the MSFD.
Art. 10 regional coherence
Incomplete
Art. 10 regional coherence problems
OSPAR aims to contribute to strengthening regional coordination of implementation of the MSFD and to ensuring coherence with regard to the establishment of environmental targets. However, the timing of a joint effort was not because CP’s that are EU Member States were focused on the update of the Commission Decision (2017/848/EU). After the adoption of the Commission Decision there was no time for setting joint ambitions because member states were focusing efforts on national reporting. There is lack of scientific knowledge, consensus on methodologies and/or political support for setting coordinated quantified and specific targets. Furthermore, each CP may have specific process to involve local stakeholders in environmental targets definition. It can be challenging to converge on common environmental targets that are endorsed both at a local, national and (sub)regional level.
