    Territorial Just Transition Plan

     

    PURPOSE

    This document describes the specifications related to the Territorial Just Transition Plan (TJTP). The TJTP needs to be defined by the MS in case JTF is covered in their IJG Programme(s). The TJTP can be defined and then used by different Programmes. A TJTP version will never be sent as such to the Commission. It will only be sent as part of specific Programme version(s), when it is referred by the specific Programme version, and assessed together with that Programme version.
