The UNEP/CMS Secretariat is pleased to announce the launch of the Online Reporting System for the next COP.

The reporting form for National Reports to be submitted in advance of the 12^th Session of the Conference of the Parties to be held in 2017 is now available from the CMS Family Online Reporting System (ORS). In order to start using this tool, please log in with your previous password (this can be reset if forgotten) or register for your country for new entries.

Parties that submitted National Reports on time to the 11^th session of the Conference of the Parties in 2014 will find that their forms have been pre-filled with data provided on that occasion.

Please note that the deadline for submitting your National Report is 24 April 2017. Kindly act in good time.

If the National Focal Point is delegating the responsibility of filling the Report to another person, please also notify the CMS Secretariat.

Any queries about the system should be directed to Ms. Hanah Al-Samaraie, CMS Associate Capacity-Building Officer, ([email protected]).
