2. In these rules the following concepts are used:

1) transparency - the openness of process of the state inventory count of emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases opening the methodology used when calculating emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases;

2) the base year - the year established for accomplishment of obligations by the Republic of Kazakhstan on Item 5 of Article 3 of the Kyoto protocol to the Framework convention of the United Nations on climate change (further - the Convention);

3) the key category of sources is sector or split of economy which are carried according to requirements of the Convention to number of the emissions making the greatest contribution to amount or absorption of greenhouse gases;

4) quality control - system of standard technical actions for measurement and quality control of the state inventory of sources of emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases in process of its development;

5) completeness - scope the state inventory count of emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases of all sources, absorbers, greenhouse gases within the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

3. The authorized body in the field of environmental protection (further - authorized body) performs the organization and coordination of functioning of the state system of inventory count of emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases.

4. Preparation of annual inventory of emissions and absorption of greenhouse gases is performed within twelve months, since April 15 of the year following after accounting year.

5.
