On 5-8 December 2022, the Advisory Committee on the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities held its 77th plenary meeting in a hybrid mode  with most of its members present in Strasbourg and the others joining remotely via videoconference. The Advisory Committee adopted, on 8 December, its final opinion on the implementation of the Convention by the United Kingdom, which will become public in Spring 2023, once the government comments, if any, received. On 7 December, it approved its draft opinion on the implementation of the Convention by Romania and on 8 December the draft opinion on the Netherlands, both of which will now undergo a confidential dialogue phase with the states parties concerned before being examined again and adopted at a forthcoming plenary session.
