Contrasts and similarities the active ageing policy context in the partner countries‌ To a greater or lesser degree, the partner countries are equipped with a range of policy responses to population ageing. They are aligned with the World Health Organization’s priorities to reach the objectives of the Decade of Healthy Ageing (2020–2030), which in turn is based on the Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing (MIPAA), developed in 2002 by the United Nations, and on the WHO Global Strategy on Ageing and Health, established in 2016. Despite the fact that active ageing has become a policy and community concern in all national contexts, it is clear that the partner countries would benefit from working towards the constant improvement in both policy and practice spheres, such as through the augmented offer of evidence-based, improved support services with a wider coverage. Ireland, Italy, Slovenia, Finland and Spain focus on integrated active ageing efforts within the national context, where municipalities and regions may support one another. In all countries, however, the government is seen as the key actor in providing conditions for setting active ageing initiatives. In Ireland, under the Health Service Executive (HSE), the National Positive Ageing Strategy (DH, 2013) has furnished the country’s approach to active ageing over the last years. More recently, the Minister of State for Mental Health and Older People, Xxxx Xxxxxx TD, and the Minister of State for Local Government and Planning, Xxxxx Xxxxx TD, have launched a new programme which is aimed at supporting older adults to remain living in their own homes and communities (Xxx.xx, 2021). Following the Nordic Welfare State model, Finland considers the rights of older adults to adequate social and health services as particularly fundamental ones. Apart from an array of related national legislation, the country’s National Programme on Ageing 2030 guides a series of actions for developing, evaluating and implementing active ageing/support services for older adults. In contrast to the above-mentioned countries, Italy does not offer a nationally coordinated action plan to promote social inclusion and active ageing. Despite the need for a more cohesive approach to active ageing, relevant policy examples in the local level are 1) the Lazio Regional Law n.11 / 2016, article 13, promoting the socialisation and simplification of access to cultural, recreational, and sports services for older adults, and 2) the Autonomous Region of Friuli...

  • Aggravating and Mitigating Factors The penalties in this matter were determined in consideration of all relevant circumstances, including statutory factors as described in CARB’s Enforcement Policy. CARB considered whether the violator came into compliance quickly and cooperated with the investigation; the extent of harm to public health, safety and welfare; nature and persistence of the violation, including the magnitude of the excess emissions; compliance history; preventative efforts taken; innovative nature and the magnitude of the effort required to comply, and the accuracy, reproducibility, and repeatability of the available test methods; efforts to attain, or provide for, compliance prior to violation; action taken to mitigate the violation; financial burden to the violator; and voluntary disclosure.
