As part of its programme of work for 2022-2023, the Committee was requested to review challenges faced by importing and exporting Parties, and to develop make recommendations to the Conference of the Parties.
Due to a lack of information on challenges faced by exporting Parties, the Committee agreed at its first meeting to initiate its activities where some information was already available, namely related to importing Parties.
Decision CC-1/4 requested the Secretariat to collect specific information about challenges directly from Parties that have not submitted any import responses. Further work on this issued and the related issue of export notifications was proposed in the draft programme of work for the biennium 2024-2025.
