The role of institutions – governance, capacity and communications

It is important to be aware of which agency is carrying out the MRE and how their perspective influences the objectives of the scheme. The self-assessment survey demonstrates that different agencies are responsible for MRE in different countries and this can influence communication, institutional capacity and the objectives of the MRE scheme. The examples demonstrate that in Austria and Finland it is a national government Ministry that has responsibility for MRE and in the UK and Germany there is an independent coordinating body. Setting up an independent coordinating body can strengthen communication between relevant institutions, improve synergies, help to identify best practice and lessons learned and make the process transparent (Olivier et.al., 2013).
