Each country was requested to select from a provided list what they believed were the three most important triggers for action on adaptation (note that five countries identified four triggers). As illustrated in Figure 2.1, common triggers for action on adaptation identified were extreme weather events (28 of 30), development of EU policies (19 of 30), estimates of current and future damage costs (17of 30) and pertinent results from scientific research (14 of 30).

If you should have asked this question to private compagnies or citizens, should it be a comparable answer or not? I gues for extreme weather yes but the rest I doubt.
Acknowledge. Asking the private sector and public this question (or any of these questions) was beyond the scope of this study. It is recognised that this would be an interesting study in itself, including understanding why the responses are different.
