Abstract
At its eighth session, the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) considered the issue of clarifications, additions and/or amendments to the revised guidelines for the preparation of national communications from Parties included in Annex I to the Convention. The SBSTA requested the secretariat to send a questionnaire to Parties on
clarifications, additions and/or amendments to the revised guidelines for the preparation of national communications from Parties included in Annex I to the Convention. In addition, the SBSTA requested Parties to provide submissions to the secretariat answering the questionnaire by 1 February 1999 for compilation into a miscellaneous document
(FCCC/SBSTA/1998/6, para. 30 (a) and (b)). At its ninth session, the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI) considered the issue of the scope of the third national communications. It invited Parties to submit, by 1 February 1999, their views on the scope of the third national communications, including their views in their answers to the questionnaire, requested by the SBSTA at its eighth session (FCCC/SBI/1998/7, para. 21 (c)). Also at its ninth session, the Subsidiary Body for implementation (SBI) considered the issue of the scope and modalities of the review process for third national communications from Annex I Parties. It invited Parties to submit, by 1 March 1999, their views on the scope
and modalities of the review process for third national communications from Annex I Parties, including in-depth reviews, in the context of the Kyoto Protocol (FCCC/SBI/1998/7, para. 21 (d)). Submissions have been received from eight Parties. In accordance with the procedure for miscellaneous documents, these submissions are attached and are reproduced in
