Further to the extension of the mandate of the AWG-LCA (decision 1/CP.15), the ninth session of the AWG-LCA  focussed on organizational matters. The AWG-LCA invited its Chair to prepare a text to facilitate negotiations among Parties ( FCCC/AWGLCA/2010/6) and agreed that, in order to conclude its work, it would need to hold two sessions between its tenth session and the sixteenth session of the COP.
