Expert review of EI planning documents. Interviews with representatives of the CoG institutions. The alignment between EI planning documents and the GAWP is assessed by comparing the lists of planned legislative activities from the EI plan with the GAWP. At least 90% of the legislative activities in the EI plan must be included in the GAWP for the plans to be considered as aligned. Costing of EI planning documents is assessed by analysing information provided about the costs and funding sources of commitments related to implementation. This excludes the development of draft laws, by-laws and strategies, but includes any activities dealing with enforcement of such documents. EI planning documents are considered to include sufficient cost estimates and information about sources of funding, if at least 75% of the commitments related to implementation are costed and if the source of their funding is also provided. If the plan does not include implementation-related activities, then the plan is not considered to be costed. Points are awarded for each of the following criteria (total of 6 points). • EI planning documents are aligned with the GAWP (2 points are awarded if at least 90% of the legislative activities in the EI plan are included in the GAWP); • EI planning documents set priorities in time (i.e. include deadlines for activities) and within sectors or negotiation chapters (2 points); • EI planning documents include cost estimates and information about sources of funding (1 point if at least 75% of the commitments costed and 1 point if the source of their funding is provided).
