The Operational Plan (OP) for the implementation of the ESP. In order to ensure an integrated approach, the OP is composed of the projects related to the SG 1 & 2 and those designed to put in place the Governing Board’s Governance Portfolios. Those projects comprised in the work programmes of the Working Groups and Task Forces, and with a direct linkage to the SG 1 & 2 in terms of their desired outcomes, have also been included in the OP.
