The checklist, as presented in this report, was developed through a process designed to draw upon the practical experience of members of the European Union Network for the Implementation and Enforcement of Environmental Law (IMPEL). A two day international workshop with 62 representatives from across 17 countries explored and tested a draft checklist. The checklist is designed to enable actors and stakeholders in the legislative and implementation process to assess EU environmental legislation on various aspects of practicability and enforceability. A list of questions is contained in this report –it can be used as a checklist, an aide-mémoire or as a questionnaire depending on the needs and interests of the user.
