Abstract
The Conference of the Parties (COP), by its decision 19/CP.7, requested the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) to develop technical standards for the purpose of ensuring the accurate, transparent and efficient exchange of data between national registries, the clean development mechanism (CDM) registry and the transaction log, with a view to recommending to the COP, at its eighth session, a decision on this matter, for adoption by the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol at its first session, to facilitate the early development and establishment of national registries, as well as of the CDM registry and transaction log (FCCC/CP/2001/13/Add.2). By the same decision, the COP also requested the Chair of the SBSTA, with the assistance of the secretariat, to convene inter-sessional consultations with Parties and experts for the purposes of, inter alia, preparing draft technical standards for consideration by the SBSTA. Such consultations took place immediately prior to the sixteenth session of the SBSTA. A paper was prepared by the chair of the consultations on possible technical standards. At its sixteenth session, the SBSTA noted that the paper had been prepared, under the authority of the Chair of the SBSTA, for comments by Parties. The secretariat has received four submissions. In accordance with the procedure for miscellaneous documents, these submissions are attached and reproduced in the language in which they were received and without formal editing
