10.5. Progress with and achievements of the programme of measures for the first planning cycle

In 2012, Member States provided information on the progress in implementing the WFD PoMs, including the state of implementation of basic, supplementary and Key Types of Measure. Information was also provided on the overall progress that had been made and any obstacles affecting the implementation of measures.

In 2016, the data and information provided will be on the measures planned for the second cycle of WFD implementation and, as such, may not provide explicit information on the actual progress, success and achievements of the first PoMs. It is intended that Member States provide an update of progress to reflect the actual and expected situation at the start of the second planning cycle.
