13 Working Group on GI Implementation GI strategy actions outlined in the Communication are focused on the framework of actions which can be taken on EU level. However, for GI to be a success it is primordial that GI is implemented on national, regional and local level by MS and civil society (recommendations of GI WG in preparation of the GI COM). Q to CGBN members: Would a WG be the adequate instrument? Possible mandate (a) information exchange between EC, MS and civil society on the implementation of tasks mentioned in the GI COM; (b) agreeing on measures/processes which MS/civil society should/need to undertake to guarantee implementation on national/regional levels; (c) giving added value to EC actions by transferring them to the national context and vice versa; (d) developing useful indicators to monitor the uptake of GI, and on descriptors on which GI should in particular be funded by public and private funds.
