Environmental aspects
The project concerns the refurbishment and new construction of teaching and research facilities on existing campus site that falls within an approved urban master plan. An EIA is therefore not required in accordance with the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU. However, parts of the investment may be covered by Annex II of the Directive in relation to urban development. The Bank's services will verify during the appraisal whether an EIA is required for any component of the project.
Procurement
The promoter is required to respect national and European procurement legislation. The Bank requires the promoter to ensure that all relevant contracts for the implementation of the project have been tendered, or shall be tendered, in accordance with the applicable procurement legislation.
