This document discusses options for adjusting the timing of the election of the President of the Conference of the Parties (COP) and the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP), and options for strengthened coordination between the President and incoming Presidencies of the COP and the CMP to ensure a smooth transition between sessions of the COP and the CMP. The Subsidiary Body for Implementation is invited to consider these options and provide further guidance.
