Risvolto di copertina:
This book aims at analysing the impact of the
European
Ombudsman on European environmental law through a
quantitative and qualitative analysis of complaints
lodged with the European Ombudsman between 1995 and
2007. After a general introduction to European
environmental law and to the institution of the
European Ombudsman, a corpus of environmental
decisions is examined in detail.
First and foremost the complaints in infringement
(Art. 226) cases are dealt with, because they often
overlap with environmental complaints, and because
they enabled the European Ombudsman to contribute to
enhancing procedural safeguards. Then complaints
concerning the right of access to documents are
analysed in detail, given that this field emerged as
the second most important sector based on the number
of complaints.
