9. NEAR FUTURE (Secretariat)
‘Near future’ needs to be defined in terms of a measurable period. This could be a figure of five years (as used in the current Criterion D of Annex 1 to Resolution Conf. 9.24) or a number of intervals between meetings of the Conference of the Parties (Paragraph B. of Annex4.) the latter period is variable, and the Secretariat therefore proposes to define ‘near future’ as:
Any time within a period of five years following the meeting of the Conference of the Parties where the status of the species concerned is discussed.
orFinally, the up-listing remains on schedule, with further announcements coming in the near future.
