An overall evaluation was undertaken of the impacts of the Directive from an environmental, economic and social perspective. The geographical coverage of the evaluation under this task is the EU15. The European Union has been looked at as a community rather than as 15 individual countries. The aim was not to make exact calculations of costs, but rather to estimate the magnitude of costs, as it was not the objective to carry out a fully-fledged cost-benefit analysis.
