Abstract:
The right of an individual to the environmental protection encompasses material and procedural aspects that correspond to certain obligations of states, in terms of international environmental law. The Aarhus Convention, as an international treaty guaranteeing certain procedural aspects of environmental rights, is an integral part of the legal order of the European Union. In addition, a number of regulations have been adopted at the level of the European Union in order to comply its law with the provisions of the Convention. The aim of this paper is to review the control mechanisms at the European Union level in the application of regulations governing the procedural aspects of environmental rights, which are guaranteed by the Aarhus Convention.
Keywords:
