At the resumed first session, Parties shared views on the general understanding and expectations of the work, followed by detailed discussions under each sub-item.  A summary of these discussions was captured by the co-facilitators in an informal note.

Parties were invited to submit, by 1 April 2017, their views on this item.  Submissions to the APA item 3 can be uploaded here.

As mandated, the compiled submissions received on APA item 3 can be found here.

The APA also requested the secretariat to organize, under guidance of the APA Co-Chairs, a round table to further advance the work under this agenda item.
