Hon Deputy Speaker, all Kyoto parties, except Russia, Japan and Canada, have committed in Durban at the 17th session of the UNFCCC Conference of the Parties and the seventh session of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (Cop/Mop 7) to a second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol, which will commence on 1 January 2013. All parties agreed to the Ad Hoc Working Group on the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action, popularly known as the ADP, which will negotiate within the set timeframes - that is, from 2015 to 2020, by when a new protocol, another legal instrument or an agreed outcome with legal force under the UNFCCC will be developed. Currently, all parties are in agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions under this future agreement.
