A technical committee on ecolabelling was established in the Ministry of Environment and Tourism, including civil society representation, but no remuneration was paid for membership, leading to weak participation, and it was vulnerable to changes in Government. The National Chamber of Commerce and Industry studied ecolabelling practice in Western Europe and proposed to the Ministry that the Government not be involved in certification. According to the new' rules, citizens, enterprises and organizations will be acknowledged through a "green certificate" and their products and services will receive an eco-label.
