High nutrient concentrations lead to intense, potentially toxic algal blooms. The EU budget contributes to the fight of this phenomenon, both via the financing of its internal policies, as well as in the framework of the neighbourhood cooperation with Russia and Belarus. Two years after the Court of Auditors' Special report " Combating eutrophication in the Baltic Sea: further and more effective action needed", CONT will debate with experts on the present situation and verity whether the financial support of the EU budget, as well as the Commission's and the Member States' activities have brought any improvement in this field.
