Abstract
At its first session, the Conference of the Parties (COP) agreed to review the financial mechanism within four years of COP 1, and take appropriate measures, including a ndetermination of the definitive status of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) in the context of the Convention (FCCC/CP/1995/7/Add.1). As requested by decision 11/CP.2, the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI), at its fifth session, began to undertake the review of the financial mechanism and invited Parties to submit views on their experience with the financial mechanism (FCCC/CP/1996/1996/15/Add.1). At its sixth session, the SBI considered a first compilation of views submitted by Parties (FCCC/SBI/1997/MISC.3 and Add.1), a synthesis report prepared by the secretariat (FCCC/1997/SBI/8) as well as the Proposed Chairman’s Draft (FCCC/SBI/1997/16,
appendix III) for a decision by the COP. It decided to defer further consideration of the review of the financial mechanism to its seventh session, urged all Parties to submit their views on the financial mechanism in accordance with the guidelines for its review no later than 15 September 1997, and requested the secretariat to prepare a miscellaneous compilation
of these views for consideration at its seventh session (FCCC/SBI/1997/16, para. 22). Two such submissions* have been received. In accordance with the procedure for miscellaneous documents, these submissions are attached and reproduced in the languages in which they were received and without formal editing
