New CDM Regulatory Framework

The Executive Board of clean development mechanism (CDM), at its ninety-third meeting, approved a set of following new regulatory documents and new versions of some other regulatory documents with a view to simplifying and streamlining the CDM:
- CDM project standard for project activities
- CDM validation and verification standard for project activities
- CDM project cycle procedure for project activities
- CDM project standard for programme of activities
- CDM validation and verification standard for programme of activities
- CDM project cycle procedure for programme of activities

Together with supplementary documents (e.g. sampling standard, forms, etc), the set of these new regulatory documents entered into force on 1 June 2017 and listed in the respective sections under the "Rules and Reference" page. Previous set of regulations may still be used for a limited length of time to allow smooth transition from the previous to new set of regulations. See details of transitional measures in the implementation plan.
