2. The text of any proposed amendment shall be communicated by the Secretariat to all Parties at least 90 days before the meeting. A/CN.4/427/Corr.l page 9 3. An amendment shall enter into force for the Parties which have accepted it 60 days after two thirds of the Parties have deposited an instrument of acceptance of the amendment with the Depositary Government. Thereafter, the amendment shall enter into force for any other Party 60 days after that Party deposits its instrument of acceptance of the amendment. (3) The only material respects in which draft article 8 departs from article XVII of CITES are the provisions concerning the Secretariat in paragraphs 1 and 2 of the latter and the depositary in paragraph 3. The matter of a secretariat is addressed in the comments to article 7 of the present annex. As to the depositary, it could be a Government, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, or the head of another appropriate body such as the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) or the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The remaining provisions of Article XVII were considered appropriate by the Special Rapportuer for use in the context of the present draft articles. He would welcome comment, in particular, with regard to the provisions of paragraph 3 concerning entry into force of amendments. 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing the process of amending a treaty or agreement related to international conservation and management of wildlife and plants. The language used is formal and bureaucratic, indicating a focus on the administrative and procedural aspects of the amendment process. The reference to the Secretariat, Depositary Government, and international organizations such as the United Nations and CITES suggests a connection to international environmental governance and policy-making.
