✦ Synopsis

Dutch experience with environmental policy since 1989 is often cited as a laudable example which other governments might follow. But after five years of hard work and three National Environmental Policy Plans (NEPPs), the effectiveness of these policy plans is still being debated, particularly in the Netherlands itself. What has become clear is that environmental policy is more than writing plans, and, as recent Dutch experience has established, the major challenges lie in implementation. As this paper will discuss, while Dutch environmental policy has set ambitious goals and developed some innovative policy mechanisms with which to reach them, its performance should be judged not on the basis of its design, but rather on the basis of its results.
