Contacts with these organizations will be very beneficial to domestic processes (e.g. provision of information to prosecutors and judges planned for next year).
Next version of the discussed action plan will be sent to the participants, and after finalisation the CMS, European Commission, BirdLife Birds and Directive Task Force shall receive it for further use.
