Time: 23:00-02:00 (Central European Summer Time - CEST)

The SBSTA Chair would encourage submissions by Parties and admitted observer organizations on this topic by 1 April 2021.

Guiding questions:

  • If first transfers of 6.4 units from outside the NDC were not required to be subject to corresponding adjustment, how could Parties ensure double use is avoided? What information would host Parties need to provide and when?
  • Should there be a transition period for first transfers of 6.4 units from outside the NDC during which a corresponding adjustment is not required and if so, how long would that period be?
  • Could there be an approach to avoiding double use for first transfers of 6.4 units from the perspective of use-restrictions (e.g. no use towards an NDC)?
