Legal Progress: Progress is made through the adoption of two legislations regarding the access of environmental information
Institutional Development(s): Establishment of the Agency for Environmental Protection in late 2004.
ICT Capacity & know-how: The situation has improved in the past years, but improvement is still needed
Multi-stakeholder cooperation: Little improvement, but still needs to be emphasized
Resource availability: Lack of funding; human resources are being trained, but CB is still needed
