Abstract
This note was prepared by the secretariat based on the experience of the trial period for GHG inventory reviews with the aim of facilitating consideration of different options for the terms of service for lead reviewers of expert review teams, including financial implications and working arrangements, for consideration by the SBSTA at its seventeenth session, and of the elaboration of the characteristics of the relevant training, the subsequent assessment after completion of the training, and/or any other means needed to ensure the necessary competence of experts for participation in expert review teams, and to forward any draft decision on this issue to its eighth session, with a view to recommending it for adoption by the COP/MOP at its first session after the entry into force of the Protocol. It contains options for the terms of service for lead reviewers and for the training of experts to ensure their competence for participation in expert review teams under Article 8 of the Kyoto Protocol, in particular for the review of GHG inventories. These options may also be applicable for the review of GHG inventories under the Convention. Options for the review of national communications under Article 8 of the Kyoto Protocol are not included in this note and could be presented at a later stage
