MESMA protocol: MSP Legislation Presentation from the ATLAS 2nd General Assembly

Component 1: Supporting Implementation of MSP Sub-component 1.3.3: Data and information requirements for MSP. Deliverable: Data management guidance document (R26) This document presents a proposal for the setting up of a Marine-related Geoportal supporting the implementation of the MSP Directive which may serve as the basis for the implementation of the operational functionalities required for the integration of the marine-related spatial datasets, the facilitation of inter-agency data dissemination as well as creating a web tool that helps users to understand the wider catchments that spread beyond the terrestrial domain within which the current web portals reside. The resultant approach showed that there are two options available: one that a new system is created, one that replicates the PA's Geoportal, or one that would add on a section to the current Geoportal, where the latter was deemed the most feasible. ; This report/document was produced as part of the SIMWESTMED Project (Grant Agreement N0. EASME/EMFF/2015/1.2.1.3/02/SI2.742101). PROJECT: Supporting Implementation of Maritime Spatial Planning in the Western Mediterranean region (SIMWESTMED) Competition for maritime space – for renewable energy equipment, aquaculture and other uses – has highlighted the need to manage our waters more coherently. Maritime spatial planning (MSP) works across borders and sectors to ensure human activities at sea take place in an efficient, safe and sustainable way. That is why the European Parliament and the Council have adopted a legislation to create a common framework for maritime spatial planning in Europe. The Directive 2014/89/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 July 2014 (said Maritime Spatial Planning Directive) establishes a framework in order to reduce conflicts between sectors and create synergies between different activities, to encourage investment – by creating predictability, transparency and clearer rules, to increase cross-border cooperation – between EU countries to develop energy ...

The potential of real call options to reduce the cost of meeting unpredictable variations in demand for support assets and services by government motivates this examination of an apparently successful instance by the U.S. Maritime Administration's Maritime Security Program (MSP). This case study, however, fails to find corroborating evidence of efficiency gains. The MSP's financing and structure obscures and understates the total cost of the acquired service and likely fails to minimize costs. Identified program modifications could increase transparency and strengthen program management. ; Naval Postgraduate School Acquisition Research Program

The paper presents the basic data describing the sector of small and medium sized enterprises. The statistical data published by Central Statistical Office, Ministry of Economy and the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development have been used. The changes in the number of economic entities in years 2004-2008 have been presented. There has been also presented the level of enterprises in all provinces, taking small and medium sized enterprises into a special consideration. The level and structure as well as dynamics of employment in the enterprises have been discussed. The analysis of financial situation of the small and medium sized enterprise sector has been carried on taking into consideration their revenues, net financial results, profit rates, earning capacity and financial availability.
