CONCEPT & DESIGN: Catalyze Sustainability Communications Opening Address he RSPO is pleased to publish the RSPO ACOP Digest (RAD), based upon the data collated from the Annual Communications of T Progress (ACOP) reports that were submitted by its members for the year 2013/2014. Through active engagement with the RSPO members, we have been able to make the reporting data this year more specific. We are pleased to announce that the ACOP reporting system is now further enhanced to a more efficient and member-friendly version. As per the Code of Conduct, only Ordinary and Affiliate Members that joined RSPO before the first of June 2013 were obligated to submit their respective ACOP reports. Members from all stakeholder categories were required to submit their ACOP 2013/2014 reports with the questions varying for each category to appropriately reflect the actual activities, distinctive contributions and level of commitment of each organization towards sustainable palm oil. Due to the ever increasing number of RSPO members, the number of members who were required to submit their ACOP this year has increased by 34%. Moreover, the total number of submissions this year has increased in respect to the past years. At RSPO, we believe that progress is unavoidable and the ACOP is a fundamental tool to keep track of positive changes in the palm oil industry. Stakeholders that have shared their plans towards sustainable palm oil are demonstrating their commitment to play an active part in transforming the palm oil market. An essential aspect of the ACOP remains the submission of Time- Table of Contents Bound Plans (TBP), which enables RSPO to gauge the commitment of all stakeholders towards 100% RSPO-certified sustainable palm oil. We have recorded this year the reporting of more challenging commitments, with a number of companies setting their target to source 100% certified OPENING ADDRESS ......................................................................... 1 sustainable palm oil by 2015.
