MOE has a process for regularly monitoring and inspecting facilities to check against any environmental violations.

  7. 6- The needed of information for Ministry of Environment The importance of accurate and timely environmental information is of increasing importance. Two major challenges: 1-Getting environmental data from different stakeholders onto one common platform & disseminating/sharing the data amongst us • 2- Converting data to information to be easier to understand. • MOE is currently engaged in various projects that provide data on quality of Ambient air, Marine Environment, Ionic Radiation, Hydrogeology and hydrometeorology etc

  8. 7- Expectations of environmental statistics and the statistics authority? How environmental statistics support the MOE work We have to have mutual understanding between two organizations in sharing data. We need to identify significant environment data & define a mechanism to find the data. Environmental data itself can't be seen in isolation .To see the effect of environmental data on a community we need to correlate this with social, economic data.

  9. QSA should help us in deriving meaningful statistics out of our data to help decision support & decision making. MOE QSA Other Agencies QSA should help us in perceiving our data in light of other relevant data/statistics.
