| Comments | The audit carried out by the National Audit Office indicates that the goals of reducing the environmental impact of oil shale mining and use and increasing the efficiency of mining and use set in the National Development Plan for Oil Shale Use have not been achieved. Environmental charges have failed to motivate entrepreneurs to pollute less or use natural resources more sustainably. Also, the state is preparing new development (2016-2030) without having carried out important studies that would allow it to assess the most significant impact of the use of existing and new oil shale resources on the environment, people’s health and society as a whole. |
