Sectoral Action Work Plans

The Sectoral Action Work Plans provide for the tracking of national scale actions assigned to a number of sectors (e.g. Agriculture, Forestry) in the Water Action Plan 2024. The objective of the Sectoral Action Work Plans is to ensure that the sector over time will no longer be a significant pressure on water status and will include information on how the sector will address all water bodies at risk from that pressure, in line with the Water Framework Directive objectives.

In the case of the Drinking Water Source Protection Sectoral Action Work Plans, the intention is to track progress in the development of Drinking Water Safety plans required under the Drinking Water Regulations.

The Sectoral Action Work Plans will be dynamic in nature and will be revised as updated information is received, but will outline at a minimum the actions assigned to implementing bodies in each sector. Further information on the scope and objectives of the Sectoral Action Work Plans is available in the Water Action Plan 2024
