Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

‘6. Notwithstanding article 7.1 (b), a Party may request the Executive Body for permission to report a limited inventory for a particular pollutant or pollutants if:
(a) The Party did not previously have reporting obligations under the present Protocol or any other protocol for that pollutant; and
(b) The limited inventory of the Party includes, at a minimum, all large point sources of the pollutant or pollutants within the Party or a relevant PEMA.
The Executive Body shall grant such a request annually for up to five years after entry into force of the present Protocol for a Party, but in no case for reporting of emissions for any year after 2019. Such a request will be accompanied by information on progress toward developing a more complete inventory as part of the Party's annual reporting.’
