Sect. 2.3 on p. 23) which might support the efforts of integration the progress report states
that “even though completely integrated management of all sectors with interests on the

attained, leaving agreements open to other bodies or authorities representing those sectors
not initially included to sign up” (MERM, 2010, p. 8).
Exercise
In the respective section references are provided to get more information on the Member

• According to the integration process what are the major challenges for the planning
