The Convention banning anti-personnel mines indicates that the Convention's States Parties "shall meet regularly in order to consider any matter with regard to the application of implementation of (the) Convention." The Convention prescribed that Meetings of the States Parties would be held annually until the Convention's First Review Conference, which was held in 2004. At the First Review Conference, the States Parties agreed to hold annually, until the Second Review Conference (in 2009), a Meeting of the States Parties "which will regularly take place in the second half of the year, in Geneva or, when possible or appropriate, in a mine-affected country."
