    This paper has been prepared for discussion at a public meeting of the IASB and does not represent theviews of the IASB or any individual member of the IASB. Comments on the application of IFRSs do notpurport to set out acceptable or unacceptable application of IFRSs. Technical decisions are made in publicand reported in IASB Update

    1 The purpose of this Education Session is to:

    (a) update the IASB on the progress of staff research on IAS 37 Provisions,

    Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets; and

    (b) gather suggestions and views from IASB members.

    2 The papers for the session comprise:

    (a) Agenda Paper 14Aan overview of the purpose and status of the project;

    (b) Agenda Paper 14Ba summary of possible problems with IAS 37; and

    (c) Agenda Paper 14Can initial staff analysis of the potential implications for

    IAS 37 of proposals in the Exposure Draft Conceptual Framework for

    Financial Reporting, published for comment in May 2015.

    3 The session will focus on Agenda Paper 14B, with the discussion following the order

    of the chapters in that paper. I will briefly introduce each chapter before inviting

    questions and comments. The analysis in the papers is still very much a work in

    progress. We will be grateful for all thoughts and ideas to help us develop it further.

    4 We hope that the papers for this session will also be useful to stakeholders who are:

    (a) takingpart in the IASBs next Agenda Consultation; or

    (b) commenting on the Conceptual FrameworkExposure Draft.
