The second set of amendments which provide for new obligations for the Contracting Parties [IEA: the ones identified here] requires formal acceptance from these Parties. Such amendments came into force on 29 April 2004, on their acceptance by two-thirds of the Members of the Commission and thereafter for each Member on its acceptance thereof."
