One of the main tools of the state to make the population responsible for the protection of the environment is the application of environmental taxes. Unfortunately, in the Republic of Moldova this instrument is not fully exploited, and consequently the degree of responsibility of both the population and the economic agents towards the environment is low.

Another problem in the field is the process if obtaining the permits, a process that often involves certain costs of complying with the specific requirements of environmental protection. Unfortunately, at the moment the classification and estimation of these costs is not fully done by the authorities, the release fees not being based on a clear calculation formula. Moreover, the setting of fees remains the responsibility of Parliament, which can lead to losses in the event of long-term updates.One of the main tools of the state to make the population responsible for the protection of the environment is the application of environmental taxes. Unfortunately, in the Republic of Moldova this instrument is not fully exploited, and consequently the degree of responsibility of both the population and the economic agents towards the environment is low.

The first study “Regulatory cost: How to calculate the fee for issuing permissive documents in the field of environment? presents the evaluation of the way of establishing the fees for issuing permits in the field of environment. It is aimed at identifying and exposing a rational mechanism for setting taxes based on the provisions of the current legislative framework and the Government's commitments in this regard.

The second study "Applying fiscal-budgetary instruments in solving environmental problems" aims to evaluate the efficiency of fiscal-budgetary instruments (environmental taxes and environmental expenditures for the environment) used to implement environmental policies, as well as to identify the problems which affect solving the problems in the field. Also, environmental taxes and expenditures are addressed from the perspective of the most pressing issues and analyze whether they are able to improve the state of the environment in the Republic of Moldova.

On December 8, starting at 10:00, we invite you to an online discussion (Zoom) upon these studies. Representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture, Regional Development and Environment, the Environment Agency, representatives of other specialized institutions, development partners, the community of experts and civil society are invited to the event.
