Abstract | The EU Commission proposed a new European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODNET) in its Green Paper on maritime policy. Following an overwhelmingly positive response from stakeholders to its proposal, the European Commission, in its EU's Maritime Policy Blue Book, adopted in October 2007 and welcomed by the European Council in December 2007, undertook to take steps towards EMODNET in order to improve availability of high quality data. The Commission undertook to prepare by 2009 an EU action plan to make progress in this area on the basis of a road map. |
