Last year the twenty years from the starting of the negotiations for the Aarhus Convention were accompanied with quite some attention from the academic community to the manner in which the Aarhus rights of access to information, public participation and effective judicial protection are implemented in the eu and its member states. Judicial protection and Article x of the Rio Convention were indeed the core topics of the iucn ael Colloquium, the eelf Conference, and the eelf Workshop with the European Commission about which we wrote in the previous jeepl number. Seminal judgments from the European Union (eu) courts confirm that the Aarhus Convention is not a paper tiger (Van Wolferen 2013). What, due to the absence of both the United States of America and Canada at the negotiation table, could have been considered a treaty confirming the status quo existing in the eu does have an impact on the legal orders of the eu and its member states (Jendroska, Aarhus Convention and Community Law: the Interplay, jeepl 2005). The Trianel, Altrip, Commission v Germany trilogy, discussed by Eliantonio & Grashof in the previous jeepl issue, is exemplary of the profound impact that the Aarhus Convention is having on the daily life of those living and operating in the eu and beyond. Not only judicial protection, but also access to information and public participation procedures at eu and national level have been amended to meet the Aarhus commitments. An overview of the compliance reports of the Aarhus
去年,在《奥胡斯公约》谈判开始后的二十年里,学术界对奥胡斯获得信息、公众参与和有效司法保护的权利在欧盟及其成员国的实施方式给予了相当多的关注。司法保护和《里约公约》第十条确实是iucn ael学术讨论会、eelf会议和与欧盟委员会的eelf研讨会的核心议题,我们在之前的jepel编号中对此进行了讨论。欧洲联盟(eu)法院的讨论判决证实,《奥胡斯公约》不是纸老虎(Van Wolferen,2013年)。由于美利坚合众国和加拿大都没有参加谈判,本可以被视为一项确认欧盟现状的条约,但它确实对欧盟及其成员国的法律秩序产生了影响(Jendroska,《奥胡斯公约和共同体法:国际法》,2005年)。Eliantonio和Grashof在上一期jeep中讨论的Trianel、Altrip、Commission v Germany三部曲,是《奥胡斯公约》对欧盟内外生活和运作人员日常生活产生深远影响的典范。为了履行奥胡斯的承诺,不仅对司法保护,而且对欧盟和国家层面的信息获取和公众参与程序进行了修订。奥胡斯公司合规报告概述

Spain and Coal, the Environment and EU Law 西班牙与煤炭、环境与欧盟法律

Mining of indigenous Spanish coal has been heavily subsidized ever since 1986, and recently, the European Commission authorized a further amount of State aid of 2.3 billion in order to facilitate the closure of uncompetitive coal mines in Spain by 2018. These subsidies are paid regardless of the facts that: the indigenous coal is of minor quality and not needed to ensure safe energy supply in Spain; the combustion of coal is causing excessive greenhouse gas emissions and most coal-fired Spanish power plants are widely exceeding regular EU emission limit values; considerable investments will have to be made, in order to eventually comply with the requirements of EU law. However, supposed that these investments are made, there is no reason for the plant owners to participate in a coal phase-out. The present article provides a detailed analysis of these critical aspects of Spanish and European coal policy.
自1986年以来,西班牙本土煤炭开采一直得到大量补贴,最近,欧盟委员会批准了23亿欧元的国家援助,以促进在2018年前关闭西班牙缺乏竞争力的煤矿。这些补贴的支付与以下事实无关:当地的煤炭质量很低,不需要确保西班牙的安全能源供应;煤炭燃烧造成了过量的温室气体排放,西班牙大多数燃煤发电厂的排放量远远超过了欧盟的常规排放限值;为了最终符合欧盟法律的要求,必须进行大量投资。然而,假设进行了这些投资,工厂所有者就没有理由参与煤炭淘汰。本文详细分析了西班牙和欧洲煤炭政策的这些关键方面。

Environmental Corporate Reporting under eu Law: Historic Achievement or Just a Moderate Step Forward? 欧盟法律下的企业环境报告:历史性的成就还是适度的进步?

This article deals with legal aspects of sustainable reporting in the EU. It explores the state of affairs in sustainability reporting regulation and points out recent increased support for integrated reporting by the EU institutions, which lead to the newly adopted Directive 2014/95/EU that obliged the Member States to adopt implementing regulation by 6 December 2016. Consequently large companies within its scope need to adjust their reporting as of their 2017 financial year. The article assesses its achievements as well as points out some missed opportunities of the Directive by deliberating legal alternatives for more effective regulation of non-financial reporting in the future.
本文涉及欧盟可持续报告的法律方面。它探讨了可持续发展报告法规的现状,并指出欧盟机构最近增加了对综合报告的支持,这导致了新通过的指令2014/95/EU,该指令要求成员国在2016年12月6日之前通过实施法规。因此,在其范围内的大公司需要调整其2017财政年度的报告。本文通过探讨未来对非财务报告进行更有效监管的法律选择,评估了该指令的成就,并指出了该指令错失的一些机会。

The preliminary ruling procedure and the infringement proceedings are generally considered to constitute complementary means for the enforcement of European Union law. This paper critically assesses the actual complementarity of the two procedures from the perspective of the communication of and approach to a problem before the Court of Justice. Furthermore, it considers to which extent this complementarity has improved or created new complications with respect to compliance with EU environmental standards. These two questions will be answered on the basis of a case study concerning three different rulings rendered by the Court of Justice in which one particular problem of (in-) compatibility of national rules with environmental Union law was at stake, namely the German Schutznormtheorie.
初步裁定程序和侵权诉讼程序通常被认为是执行欧盟法律的互补手段。本文从法院处理问题的沟通和方法的角度,批判性地评估了这两种程序的实际互补性。此外,它还考虑到这种互补性在遵守欧盟环境标准方面在多大程度上改善了或造成了新的复杂情况。这两个问题将在一个案例研究的基础上得到回答,该案例研究涉及法院作出的三个不同裁决,其中一个特别的问题是国家规则与环境联盟法律的(不)兼容性,即德国schutznormtheory。

Judicial Protection against Plans and Programmes Affecting the Environment: A Backdoor Solution to Get an Answer from Luxembourg 对影响环境的计划和项目的司法保护:从卢森堡获得答案的后门解决方案
IF 1.2 Q1 LAW Pub Date : 2016-12-07 DOI: 10.1163/18760104-01303005
L. Squintani, E. Plambeck
Despite the importance of access to justice in the context of plans and programmes affecting the environment, no single EU secondary law measure requires Member States to ensure effective judicial protection against such acts, and thus access to the preliminary reference procedure. At national level, this could lead to the absence of procedures to ensure effective judicial protection against plans and programmes. The Netherlands is used in this contribution as an example of the presence of such a lacuna. We argue that the lack of effective judicial protection against plans and programmes affecting the environment is in breach of both the Aarhus Convention and EU law. The duty to reconsider definitive acts, as established under the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, can serve as a short-term solution to offer effective judicial protection by the backdoor.
尽管在影响环境的计划和方案的范围内诉诸司法很重要,但没有任何单一的欧盟次级法律措施要求会员国确保针对这种行为的有效司法保护,从而要求会员国能够诉诸初步参考程序。在国家一级,这可能导致缺乏确保对计划和方案提供有效司法保护的程序。在本报告中,荷兰被用作存在这种空白的一个例子。我们认为,对影响环境的计划和方案缺乏有效的司法保护违反了《奥胡斯公约》和欧盟法律。欧洲联盟法院判例法所规定的重新考虑确定行为的义务可以作为一种短期解决办法,通过后门提供有效的司法保护。

Construction permitting and spatial regulations are important for the functioning of modern society as regards enabling basic social needs, the right to a healthy living environment and the possibility to promote business and economic growth. However, what is typical of these real life situations is a collision of several private interests and the public interest. In order to protect the latter, the state needs to set certain limitations also by means of regulations and to ensure the appropriate administrative capacity to implement them. Moreover, the right and possibility to build is important for sustainable regional development. The article addresses the profiles of Slovenia and Croatia, in particular their procedural aspects and administrative systems’ efficiency in the field of construction. The results show that both countries regulate their construction procedures similarly, with a special focus on the simplification of administrative procedures. As such, they continually try to enhance administrative capacity.
在满足基本社会需求、享有健康生活环境的权利以及促进商业和经济增长的可能性方面,建筑许可和空间管制对现代社会的运作至关重要。然而,这些现实生活中的典型情况是几种私人利益与公共利益的冲突。为了保护后者,国家也需要通过法规来设定一定的限制,并确保有适当的行政能力来实施这些限制。此外,建设的权利和可能性对区域可持续发展至关重要。这篇文章论述了斯洛文尼亚和克罗地亚的概况,特别是它们在建筑领域的程序方面和行政系统的效率。结果表明,两国对建设程序的规范相似,特别注重简化行政程序。因此,它们不断努力提高行政能力。

The Commission’s Omission to Use Article 267 tfeu as a Tool to Enforce eu Environmental Law 欧盟委员会未使用第267条作为执行欧盟环境法的工具

L. Krämer
The present contributions examines if and to what extent preliminary judgments by the Court of Justice were used as an enforcement tool and helped the full legal and practical application of EU environmental legislation. Looking at available data about the use of this procedure and at the enforcement practice of Member States and the EU commission it is concluded that neither the means of preliminary reference according to Article 267 nor the infringement procedure under Article 258 TFEU are systematically exploited for effective enforcement of EU environmental law. In particular, it becomes evident, that Commission does not assume its role as environmental law enforcement authority. It rather acts as an opportunist political body which sometimes takes into consideration the rule of law, but sometimes not.
本报告审查了法院的初步判决是否以及在多大程度上被用作执法工具,并有助于欧盟环境立法的充分法律和实际应用。通过查看有关该程序使用的现有数据以及成员国和欧盟委员会的执法实践,得出的结论是,根据第267条的初步参考手段和第258条TFEU的侵权程序都没有被系统地用于有效执行欧盟环境法。特别是,很明显,委员会没有承担其作为环境执法当局的作用。它更像是一个机会主义的政治机构,有时考虑法治,有时不考虑法治。

This article centres on the effectiveness of Article 258 TFEU proceedings for the enforcement of EU environmental law. Employing as an example the case between the Commission and Sweden on the licensed hunting of wolves – a species enjoying strict protection in accordance with the Habitats Directive – the pros and cons will be discussed of infringement proceedings for the enforcement of the common responsibilities in the environmental area. While these proceedings can be effective in situations where they are used, they suffer unpredictability and a lack of consistency owing to political balancing within the Commission. Furthermore, lack of transparency in communication between the Commission and the governments of the Member States prevent public scrutiny of the system, which contributes to alienation of the EU from the public. Finally, on areas of environmental law – which are highly dependent upon scientific expert knowledge and thus dominated by ‘soft guidelines’ – infringement proceedings are an important complement to references from national courts to CJEU for preliminary rulings on controversial issues in order to avoid ‘circular decision-making’. Thus, the Swedish wolf issue can serve as a background for a more general discussion on infringement proceedings as an effective means for the enforcement of environmental law within the Union.
本文的中心是第258条TFEU程序在执行欧盟环境法方面的有效性。将以委员会与瑞典之间关于许可狩猎狼的案件为例,讨论在环境领域执行共同责任的侵权诉讼的利弊。狼是一种根据生境指令受到严格保护的物种。虽然这些程序在使用它们的情况下是有效的,但由于委员会内部的政治平衡,它们存在不可预测性和缺乏一致性的问题。此外,欧盟委员会与成员国政府之间的沟通缺乏透明度,阻碍了公众对该制度的监督,从而导致欧盟与公众的疏远。最后,在环境法领域——这些领域高度依赖科学专家知识,因此由“软指导方针”主导——侵权诉讼是国家法院为避免“循环决策”而向欧洲法院提出的关于有争议问题的初步裁决的重要补充。因此,瑞典狼问题可以作为一个背景,以便更广泛地讨论侵权诉讼作为欧盟内执行环境法的有效手段的问题。
