INFORMAL
GROUPS AND CONSULTATIONS:

COMPLIANCE:
The compliance drafting group met in an afternoon session to consider the
outstanding issues requiring redrafting, as identified in the negotiating
group, with the exception of consequences. Delegates reportedly made little
progress, with only a few drafting points cleared. The drafting group also
met in a late afternoon session to discuss an EU alternative proposal for
the draft COP-7 decision.
