    Report of the ThinkBike workshop in Nicosia and Larnaca, Cyprus, 16 - 19 December 2013 Sponsored by: Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Nicosia Cyprus Ministry of Communication & Works City of Nicosia City of Larnaca In co-operation with Dutch Cycling Embassy Think Bike workshop 1 Introduction The Dutch Cycling Embassy was commissioned by the Embassy of the Royal Kingdom of the Netherlands in Nicosia to conduct a combined ThinkBike workshop in the cities of Nicosia and Larnaca on Cyprus from 16 to 19 December 2013. The idea of a ThinkBike workshop is that Dutch experts will discuss a local cycling-related problem with two teams of local experts and other stakeholders of cycling. The confrontation of local and Dutch approaches of the local problems at hand will generate new perceptions and potential solutions that haven't been seriously considered before. The programme typically includes a presentation about the cycling culture and related cycling-inclusive policy development in the Netherlands, an explanation of the local (in this case Cypriot) cycling policies and two parallel work sessions to discuss one local problem in each team. ThinkBike workshops are then concluded with a presentation of the generated proposals for the solution of the local problems to a wider audience. The workshop in Nicosia and Larnaca was special in so far as there was an overlap between the participants of the workshop in both cities. This is due to the fact that in Cyprus the planning and implementation of a Cycling Network, as well as legislation and ruling matters concerning cycling are set by government sectors and responsible Ministries, following the views of Local Authorities.

In a 1960 referendum, the three religious groups were asked to choose to belong to either the Greek Cypriot or the Turkish Cypriot community. They opted to belong to the Greek Cypriot community. The members of all three groups, therefore, enjoy the same privileges, rights and benefits as the members of the Greek Cypriot community, including voting rights, eligibility for public office and election to official government and state positions, at all levels.

Ex-Director W.D.D. Despo Vassiliadou LLB (HONS), LLM (BRISTOL) ii iii S U M M A R Y This report is part of the WDD-FAO project “Reassessment of the Island’s water resources and demand” and particularly of Objective 2, Output 2.1 which is intended to deal with “summary review of laws and institutions relevant to water sector in the context of harmonization with EU common policy and the possible application of new policies to cope with water scarcity”. That the existing water legislation and the resulting institutional arrangements are inadequate and cannot cope with the present and probably the future advances in technology, water development and standard of living is an old story going back at the first steps of the Republic of Cyprus. Their weaknesses were more profound during the last decade with the prevailing droughts and scarcity of supply. However a lot of action in this field is now taking place and this is what led to the decision to include the reassessment of the water legislation and institutions in the project along with the reassessment of water resources. It is a fact that most of the laws pertaining to water either directly or indirectly are quite old and were enacted during the colonial era.
