Environmental aspects
The Directive 2011/92/EU does not specifically mention the need for an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for buildings related to education, but it may be that some sub-projects can be regarded as urban renewal projects and might require an EIA (Annex II of the European Directive). This will be examined during the appraisal.
Procurement
The procedures for tendering and procurement used by the promoter must comply with the Community directives on procurement (Directives 2004/17/EC or 2004/18 and Directive 2007/66/EC amending Directives 1989/665/EEC and 1992/13/EEC). The procedures will be analysed during the appraisal.
