• What is the nature and scale of the problem, how is it evolving, and who is most affected by it?
• What are the views of the stakeholders concerned?
• Should the Union be involved?
• If so, what objectives should it set to address the problem?
• What are the main policy options for reaching these objectives?
• What are the likely economic, social and environmental impacts of those options?
• How do the main options compare in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and coherence in solving the problems?
• How could future monitoring and evaluation be organised?
