Good attendance at this workshop gathering key regulated parties
Excellent and open presentations highlighting current stakeholder
approaches, progress and implementation difficulties
Clear demonstration of effort applied and commitment to implement ADQ
confirming that the underlying concept of ADQ is fully valid
Numerous challenges were highlighted ranging from initial lack of
management commitment, legacy issues, some initial originator
“reluctance”, oversight issues through to huge impact stemming from
technical changes or new systems to be put in place
Key issue in Member States (MS)/Organisations appeared to be the ADQ
Timelines.
 European Commission will need to better understand the current status
achieved in MS:
Question is to how can this be achieved? Could a dedicated ADQ questionnaire
be helpful to ascertain a consolidated view.
 Once having achieved this, discussions to address notified implementation
difficulties may be arranged in coordination with SSC.

Overall notes – Summary key points (2)
 Time at WS was limited to discuss all detailed questions that were
raised
 Agency will extract more detailed questions/aspects from the
presentations and answer them separately
 A number of specific support requirements for continued generic
stakeholder support were collected and those will be analysed,
prioritised and actioned
 The method for individual stakeholder support was outlined and will
have to be further addressed:
 States/Organisations are requested to raise specific needs back to the
Agency, ideally through the ADQ-ISC
 Detailed aspects raised - example AIXM:
 There is a need for additional guidance on e.g. AIXM Business Rules
and Metadata in the ADQ context
 Workshop will be organised to address those issues
