An efficient and effective flood risk management planning cannot be based on the floods directive only. In terms of process, many links are made with the Water Framework directive (WFD), but more important are the content links for a sustainable flood risk management: first of all with the WFD and wider water legislation but also with the nature legislation. In addition, many thematic policies have an impact and are impacted by flood risk management. These influences differ from place to place and can change over time. As agricultural policies are important to look at almost all over Europe, they are discussed separately.
