Incentive Measures (Article 11)
Recalling the programme of work on incentive measures established in decision V/15 of the Conference of the Parties and the recognition by the Conference of the Parties at its sixth meeting that further work needs to be undertaken on the role of positive incentives and their performance as well as on perverse incentives and ways and means for their removal or mitigation, as reflected in decision VI/15,
Recalling further its request to the Executive Secretary, in paragraph 7 of decision VI/15, to elaborate, in collaboration with relevant organizations, proposals for the application of ways and means to remove or mitigate perverse incentives, for consideration by the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice, at a meeting prior to the seventh meeting of the Conference of the Parties,
Acknowledging that the proposals for the application of ways and means to remove or mitigate perverse incentives as elaborated by the second workshop on incentive measures, held in Montreal from 3 to 5 June 2003, contain valuable and useful elements that provide a general framework to address the removal or mitigation of perverse incentives in different economic sectors and ecosystems, but need further refinement and consideration before adoption by the Conference of the Parties,
