Draft conclusions by the Chairman



1. The Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) took note of submissions from Parties on this issue, including additional information provided by the delegation of Iceland in response to questions by other Parties (FCCC/SBSTA/1999/MISC.3 and Add.1 and Add.1/Corr.1). It also noted that substantial technical questions related to the impact of single projects on emissions in the commitment period had been raised by Parties and that Iceland had provided comprehensive answers to these questions.



2. The SBSTA decided to consider this issue further at its thirteenth session, taking into account any additional information provided by Parties up to 17 July 2000, to be compiled by the secretariat into a miscellaneous document, with a view to recommending a decision for adoption by the Conference of the Parties at its sixth session.
