Introduction
At its 11th meeting, the Conference of the Parties to the Stockholm Convention adopted the decisions contained in annex I to the report of the meeting, document UNEP/POPS/COP.11/31. Several of those decisions included invitations to Parties and others to provide information.
The following letter was sent to Parties and observers with a summary of the individual decisions that contain invitations for information and comments. The individual invitations to submit information are organized by relevant COP agenda items. Information sought in each item can be transmitted separately, since the deadlines for submission vary.
Similar letters have also been prepared to solicit information sought in follow-up to 16th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Basel Convention and 11th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Rotterdam Convention and are available on the Basel and Rotterdam Convention’s websites.
