CCEXEC81

GENERAL INFORMATION

---

CAC43 (2020) concluded that while many Codex meetings had to be postponed in 2020, this could not continue in 2021 and that CCEXEC80 and CCEXEC81 may be held virtually if physical meetings were not possible. The Codex Secretariat in consultation with FAO and WHO has determined that it is not possible to plan CCEXEC81 as a physical session. The meeting will therefore take place virtually in October - November 2021.

CCEXEC81 will meet virtually for six three-hour sessions, one session per day on 28 and 29 October and 1, 2 and 3 November to discuss the items on the agenda, and a sixth session on 5 November to adopt the report. Each session will take place from 12:00 (noon) to 15:00 h CET. The Session will begin at midday (CET) on Thursday 28 October 2021. The Session will be conducted in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish. Download provisional timetable: English.
