28 April 2009: The UNFCCC Secretariat has published on its web site the annual inventory submissions, consisting of the national inventory report (NIR) and common reporting format (CRF) of parties included in Annex I to the Convention.

This follows a request made to the UNFCCC Secretariat at the eighth session of the Conference of the Parties. The Secretariat was also requested to publish on its site the exact URL addresses of parties’ web sites where these submissions are located. The NIRs contain detailed descriptive and numerical information and the CRFs contain summary, sectoral and trend tables for all greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals, and sectoral background data tables for reporting implied emission factors and activity data.
