SEIS Task Force

The Commission is working with the Member States and the EEA to devise a detailed implementation plan for achieving the objectives outlined in the Commission Communication adopted in February 2008. A SEIS Task Force has been established to assist the Commission in preparing its policy proposals for the implementation of SEIS and bring together all relevant stakeholders (Commission services, MSs, EEA, Regions, NGOs, International Organisations, businesses). The Task Force had its first meeting on Monday 29 September 2008 in Brussels.(Meeting record).

On Tuesday 24 March 2009 the SEIS Task Force had a meeting in Prague to talk about an EU e-Reporting pilot, a solution consisting of an online EU e-Reporting portal and an exchange network of national nodes. Several IT vendors and specialists, as well as NESIS, were present in order to share their know-how, perspectives and experiences regarding the best technological implementation for the pilot. The agenda and the presentations of the meeting are now available.
