According the information of UN FCCC the The final report of the
Enforcement Branch of the compliance committee will be available shortly at the following page:

Ukrainian Registry from 12 hours 20 minutes 10 seconds 12 October 2011 on GMT
time can not to make external transfers of units to other registries, except for first external transfer of track 2 ERUs.
We will inform You about changes of situation.
We asked ITL to explaine the terms
"External transfers from the registry of Ukraine are prevented
[...] except for first external transfer of track 2 ERUs."
means that for any JI track 2 project hosted by Ukraine, Ukraine is allowed
to:
- issue in the ITL the corresponding ERUs.
- transfer these ERUs for the first time after their issuance out of the Ukraine registry
This reflects decision 9/CMP.1, annex, paragraph 24.
So the right interpretation would be:
Registry can make all first external transfers of units issued for JI
second track
If a track 2 ERU unit was:
1) issued in Ukraine
2) transferred out of Ukraine before
3) came back into the registry accounts after a series of other subsequent
transfers
4) get transferred out of Ukraine
This will be disallowed by the ITL
If a track 2 ERU unit is:
1) issued in Ukraine
2) transferred out of Ukraine for is first ever external transfer
This will work in the ITL
