  1. Marine Strategy Framework Directive

    The Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) requires that EU Member States put in place measures to achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) in their marine waters by 2020. This means that EU Member States must develop Marine Strategies for their seas, specifically an assessment of the current state of their marine waters (by 2012), the development of targets and indicators to demonstrate GES (by 2012), establishment of monitoring programmes (by 2014) and the implementation of a programme of measures to meet GES (by 2016).
