In particular, thé GénéralAssembly at its seventh session (June 2018) approved thé overall results framework for thé 2003 Convention (Résolution 7. GA 9) and adopted some amendments to thé Operational Directives on periodic reporting (Résolution 7. GA 10), as recommended by thé twelfth session of thé Committee (December 2017). Thé révisions to thé Operational Directives amended thé periodicity of submission of reports on thé implementation of thé Convention (Décision 12. COM 10) so that States Parties shall submit them every six years based on a System of régional rotation - instead of every six years after their year of ratification. Furthermore, in light of thé importance of having results-based reports, thé Committee at its twelfth session acknowledged that a transition period was necessary for reforming thé periodic reporting mechanism. In particular to allow time for thé Secrétariat to révise thé periodic reporting form (Form ICH-10) by aligning it with thé overall results framework and elaborate a capacity-building approach, to accompany thé révision. Thé transition started in thé second half of 2018 and will last until thé submission of reports from thé first région in 2020. This means that no reports on thé implementation of thé Convention and on éléments inscribed on thé Représentative List are expected before 15 December 2020. Please also be informed that, States Parties belonging to thé Latin America and thé Caribbean région will be thé first to submit their periodic reports in 2020 according to thé calendar for thé first régional cycle of reporting established by thé thirteenth session of thé Committee in 2018 (Décision 13. COM 8). Europe, Arab States, Africa, Asia and thé Pacifie will follow in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 respectively (Décision 13. COM 8). 7, place de Fontenoy 75352 Paris 07, France Tél. :+33 (0)1 45 68 11 12 www. unesco. org  -2- Please kindly note that thé above-mentioned transition does not appty to reports on thé status of éléments inscribed on thé List of Intangible Cultural héritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding. Thé submission of thèse reports continue according to thé current rules and deadlines; in other words they should be submitted by 15 December of thé fourth year following thé year of inscription, and every fourth year thereafter, through thé online reporting tool available on thé Convention's website or using thé word version of Form ICH-11 . l thank you for your interest in thé safeguarding of thé intangible cultural héritage.
