The NRO Newsletter: NROs UPDATE

Since October 2014 the IPPC Secretariat has been distributing a monthly newsletter on National Reporting Obligations called the NROs UPDATE. The English version is the first to be made available and all other language versions are uploaded onto the IPP as they get translated. For further information, please visit: https://www.ippc.int/core-activities/information-exchange/nro Based on advice received from the IPPC NRO Advisory Group (NROAG) the period from July 2014 to March 2015 is known as the Year of the IPPC Official Contact Point. This is to increase national awareness on the importance of IPPC Official Contact Points (OCPs) and their roles and responsibilities. To support this initiative, the NRO Update will focus on OCPs until March 2015 providing practical suggestions on what countries could consider when nominating OCPs and establishing the appropriate support systems.
