    3. the processes and procedures for monitoring and amending the Implementation Agreement and for preparing annual reports on the implementation of the Agreement;

  2. Pursuant to clause 230 and subject to clauses 177 to 180, the parties may enter into agreements or make arrangements in respect of the management, including the collection, use, retention, exchange, protection, disclosure and confidentiality, of personal, governmental, general or other information, including but not limited to:

    3. during the term of the first Intergovernmental Transfer Agreement, the parties shall determine a system of information management to support the measurement of own-source revenue capacity.

  3. The Implementation Agreement shall take effect as set out in the Implementation Agreement and have a term of five years, or such other time as the parties may agree.
