At its first session, the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee requested the secretariat to prepare for consideration by the Committee at its second session a document with potential options for elements towards an international legally binding instrument, based on a comprehensive approach that addresses the full life cycle of plastics as called for by UNEA resolution 5/14, including identifying the objective, substantive provisions including core obligations, control measures, and voluntary approaches, implementation measures, and means of implementation. This document could include both legally binding and voluntary measures.
A template for submissions intended to provide guidance to Members of the Committee and observers in structuring their written submissions was circulated on 16 December 2022.
All submissions received by the INC Secretariat are available below.
