Decision 2/CP.17, Annex II, para. 10 (“Modalities and procedures for international

The multilateral assessment should entail the following:
a) Any Party may submit electronically through the secretariat written questions
to the Party concerned in advance of the international assessment
b) The Party under assessment should endeavour to respond to those
questions, through the secretariat, within two months. The secretariat will
compile the questions and answers and publish them on the UNFCCC
website
