Consultation questions

Are the proposed Clarifications clear and consistent with the relevant existing Assessment Framework criteria and requirements?

Please identify the relevant Clarification, explain your concern and propose alternative wording.

Does the description of independence in the first Clarification, including the relationships listed in paragraph 2 and the majority threshold in paragraph 3, reflect your understanding of how criterion 1.1 a) 1) has been applied?

Please identify the difference and, where possible, the assessment or program to which you refer.

Could either proposed Clarification materially affect how an existing or future carbon-crediting programs are assessed, or what a program must do or demonstrate to meet the relevant Assessment Framework requirement?

Please identify the relevant Clarification, describe the potential impact and, where appropriate, propose alternative wording.

Could either proposed Clarification raise or lower the substantive integrity threshold established by the relevant Assessment Framework criterion or requirement?

Please identify the Clarification, explain how the integrity threshold would be affected, and, if appropriate, propose alternative wording that would retain the same integrity threshold.

Are there other Assessment Framework criteria for which a Clarification would assist the criterion's application to carbon-crediting programs of different legal or institutional forms, including government-administered programs?

Please identify the criterion, explain the issue that arises in its application and, where possible, propose wording for a Clarification.

Are there any Assessment Framework criteria or requirements for which a Clarification would be insufficient to address issues arising from their application to carbon-crediting programs of different legal or institutional forms, including government-administered programs, such that a Tier 2 instrument (an Interpretation or Technical Notice; see section 7) may be required?

Please identify the criterion or requirement, describe the issue, and explain why you consider a Tier 2 instrument may be necessary. If appropriate, propose wording for the instrument.
