Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s) / milieurechtspraak
Dutch term or phrase: milieurechtspraak
...ingevolge thans geldende milieuwetgeving en/of milieurechtspraak

Does milieurechtspraak just mean environmental procedure(s)? I know that rechtspraak can also mean legal precedents, so I'm not sure if it means that here.

Thank you for any help.
