The Sub-Decree establishes a National Climate Change Committee (NCCC) with the mandate to prepare, coordinate and monitor the implementation of policies, strategies, legal instruments, plans and programmes of the Royal Government of Cambodia to address climate change issues within the country, thus contributing to the protection of the environment and natural resources and foreseeing and preventing man-made changes in climate that might have adverse impacts on the people's well-being. The NCCC has roles and responsibilities to cooperate with concerned ministries and institutions aiming to develop draft climate change policies, promote participation of all stakeholders in the development and implementation of climate change policies, promote integration of climate change concerns into relevant policies, strategies and resources, among others. The NCCC is responsible for establishing a Climate Change Technical Team responsible for providing advice related to climate change issues in Cambodia.
