Proposal:
When: after 2016 review cycle
Who : group among LRs to be invited
How: discussion via email or VTR
.
Conclusions 12th LR meeting, para. 15:
“The LRs emphasized the need for experience in the use of the new guidelines before being able to
adequately consider the standardized set of data comparisons.”

inventory submissions of Parties included in Annex I to the Convention, and any other inventory
information, and to publish this information on the UNFCCC website electronically as well as in a stand-
alone document” (para. 8)
