Information on the content of the resource
National Implementation refers to the measures governments take to facilitate access to genetic resources, and to ensure the fair and equitable sharing of benefits resulting from their use. Measures for implementing access and benefit-sharing may include national or regional strategies, policies, legislations, regulations and codes of conduct. These measures specify relevant information and procedures, such as which competent national authority can grant access to which genetic resources, and how to obtain prior informed consent (PIC) and agree on mutually agreed terms (MAT) between users and providers.
