Proceedings of the session “Updating Knowledge on Member States’ Governance of Exploration and Mining” of the Third International Workshop on the European Union Raw Materials Information System
The Raw Materials Information System (RMIS) is the Commission’s reference web-based knowledge platform on non-fuel, non-agriculture raw materials. The first version of the RMIS was released in 2015 as a permanent website under the JRC Science Hub. The markedly upgraded RMIS 2.0 was presented in details in the 2017 “RMIS Roadmap & Progress Report” and launched at a dedicated session of the 2017 “Raw Materials week” event in Brussels.
Policy and legislation, and good governance in a broader sense, have been major functional elements of RMIS since its launch, as well as presentation and discussion topics at the series of the annual RMIS workshops (2017, 2018, 2019), and at the “Raw Materials Knowledge Base Events” in frame of the annual EU Raw Materials Week(s).
This report is an attempt to start filling the gap in the printed documentation of the above events, and to provide a review of the state-of-art and a short summary on how progressive national regulatory solutions can be integrated into national and Community level information systems in order to serve the widest possible spectrum of end-user stakeholders and interested public. In addition, this report contributes to the efforts of DG GROW in support of the Second (Domestic) Pillar of the EU Raw Materials Initiative (RMI) by promoting the annual updates on the EU Member States regulatory profiles based on the MINLEX report (2017) .
The primary objective of the workshop session and of the authors is to share practices and experience on the framework conditions’ information and knowledge management. This report does not target at any comparison or benchmarking of the individual solutions in Member States. In this respect, the conclusions drawn are summaries in nature, the lessons learnt address mainly proposals with regard to the future development of the Raw Materials Information System.
