Observation regarding the Schema SWSupportingQE: we suggest to be ruled out due to the same information provided in Quality element schema or to link with QualityElement Schema by qeCode.
The reporting guidance states that we should “select each physico-chemical QE at the level 4 of aggregation in turn from the enumeration list and report the information in each of the following schema elements for each QE”.
We asked the helpdesk for clarification as it was not clear for us if we had to select each QE listed in annex 8h at least once even if it was not monitored respectively not used for the status assessment or if we only had to select those QEs for which we have indicated in the schema element “supportingQECategoryRW” that they were assessed in terms of ecological status/potential. The helpdesk indicated that the class "SWPhysicoChemicalQE" was intended to report the standards that were used in the assessment and that we should report these for the QEs which have been assessed. This clarification should be included in the reporting guidance in order to avoid any misunderstandings in the future.
