1. Key National Sustainable Development Coordination Mechanism(s) (e.g., Councils, Commissions, Inter-Ministerial Working Groups). A formal National Council for Sustainable Development does not exist in the Netherlands. This is because the Netherlands was already applying policy planning procedures involving various governmental and non-governmental actors and agencies, well before the term "Sustainable Development" was coined and spread internationally in 1987. The best illustration of this approach is the way in which the National Environmental Policy Plan (NEPP) is drafted. This document contains the equivalent of a national strategy on sustainable development. Prior to publication, intensive discussions are held with all those concerned, both within and outside government. The NEPP is updated every four years (the third one is due at the end of 1997). It is signed by the Minister of Housing, Spatial Planning and Environment, the Minister of Economic Affairs, the Minister of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries, the Minister of Transport, Public Works and Water Management and the Minister for Development Cooperation. In connection with this integrated approach to planning, various coordination mechanisms have been established at different levels. While these generally have not been set up with a view to promoting sustainable development, many of them incorporate considerations of sustainability in their normal activities.

1. Key National Sustainable Development Coordination Mechanism(s) (e.g. Councils, Commissions, Inter-Ministerial Working Groups): The basic document setting out the sustainable development strategy of the European Union is the Fifth Environmental Action Program (5EAP), adopted in 1992. The European Commission has established a system of Environmental Integration Correspondents (specifically appointed officials) in all Directorates-General (DGs), charged with the implementation of the Programme. Within the European Commission the Core Group Environment Development prepares UNCSD and other related processes. It comprises all relevant DGs. The Environment Council and the Development Council takes decisions at the European level, through the High Level Environment Development Group which consists of the representatives of the Member States' governments preparing the EU positions for the UNCSD. The European Council comprising EU Member States Heads of Government meet bi-annually. At its Cardiff meeting in 1998 a plan for the integration off environment in other policies and the achievement of sustainable development was launched. This process has in the first instance concerned the transport, energy and agriculture sectors. Development, internal market industry, economics and finance, fisheries and general affairs have been added since. Reports on these areas will be presented to subsequent European Councils. Following the Treaty of the European Union, the European Parliament is jointly responsible with the Council for a large number of policy areas, including the reivew of the 5EAP. The Parliament has also passed resolutions on Agenda 21 and the outcome of Earth Summit+5. The lead is with the Environment Committee consulting other Committees as deemed necessary, in particular the Development Committee, See also description of the EU Institutions in the Annex of the European Community's report to the Earth Summit+5: Agenda 21 - The First Five Years (page 170).
