Coastal ban extended
Country: Central, Other Spanish Places, Spain; Croatia; France; Greece; Italy; Montenegro; Morocco; Slovenia; Spain
4 February 2008
Following the scandal in Spain, which has seen thousands of coastal properties threatened with demolition, the national coastal building ban has been extended around the Mediterranean.
No fewer than 14 countries signed a protocol agreement in Madrid last week, under which they agree to prevent all building less than 100 metres from the coast. The Spanish Minister for the Environment, Cristina Narbona, insisted that the new deal was necessary, because the Mediterranean coastline is expected to move between 20 and 60 metres over the next half a century, due the effects of climate change.
The countries that have agreed to the protocol, despite not having the backing of the Eu, are Algeria, France, Greece, Croatia, Malta, Israel, Italy, Morocco, Slovenia, Montenegro, Tunisia and Syria. However, there are some countries, which have not yet signed up to the agreement, including Turkey, Libya, Cyprus, Lebanon, Egypt and Bosnia.
Speaking exclusively to Homes Overseas on-line, Stefano Lucatello of the International Property Law Centre, commented: “The law – which varies from country to country - are mainly directed at properties, which are built on the sand or beach itself, which detract from the coastal views. Different governments will take different decisions on the basis of this law, it remains to be seen how each individual country will implement them.”
