Implementation of CBPs

EASEE-gas has now approved and issued thirteen CBPs, 7 of which were approved in the second half of 2007.

In consultation with the Madrid Forum participants, EASEE-gas has taken responsibility for monitoring the implementation of CBPs. To enable the Executive Committee to report on an annual basis to the Madrid Forum it has again undertaken a survey of all Full Members of EASEE-gas to respond on their experiences and where appropriate indicated by country the progress of implementation or existence of barriers of any kind.

It should be recognised that, although the report highlights the implementation of recommended CBP's, incomplete implementation does not necessarily imply the existing interoperability processes and practices are ineffective.

The 2007 survey was on the status of implementation of the 6 CBPs issued between 2003 and 2005.

A report of the 2007 results is presented below, along with the questionnaire and instructions:
