The chairpersons of the committee are in consultation with the chairpersons of Electronic Working Groups (EWGs) and the Codex Secretariat to explore the possibility of working by correspondence with a view to progressing some of the work in the step process for consideration by CAC43 in July 2020.
The Codex Secretariat will also seek to establish a mechanism whereby EWGs can continue their work through to the next session of the respective committees.
