The development and maintenance of the core Union database and the central Union database, as well as the technical quality check of databases and datasets operated by third parties should be undertaken by a neutral and competent body operating at Union level. Given its remit, the European Environment Agency is best placed to provide the necessary technical assistance for the proper implementation of the relevant provisions of this Regulation. Where necessary, this work should include relying on contributions from, and be supported by, other sectorial Union bodies, in accordance with Union law. Where necessary, Member States should be able to provide the Commission with additional and voluntary input.
