Canada Acts To Establish National Registry For Emissions Credits After UN Review
On May 2, 2008, the Enforcement
Branch of the Kyoto Protocol's Compliance Committee decided
to proceed with an investigation of Canada's failure to
establish in a timely way a national registry for
Kyoto-recognized emissions credits, a condition for
Canada's participation in the flexibility mechanisms of the
Protocol (i.e., the Clean Development Mechanism, Joint
Implementation and the ability to trade national emissions
allowances).
