Turkey: Phase-out of methyl bromide in the dried fig sector in Turkey (World Bank) (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/31/47/Add.1)

Having considered the recommendations of the Sub-Committee on Project Review (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/31/21, paras. 47-49), the Executive Committee decided to approve the above project at the level of funding indicated in annex V to the present report,  which did not take into account the level of exports to non-Article 5 countries, on the understanding that:

  1. The Government of Turkey would ensure that the total national aggregate methyl bromide consumption in the sector would be permanently reduced to a level no higher than its 1999 national aggregate consumption, less the phase-out proposed in the project (an agreement with the Government of Turkey concerning methyl bromide is contained in annex VIII to the present report); 
  2. The Government of Turkey, through the World Bank, would provide to the Fund Secretariat an annual progress report on the implementation of the project, including data on aggregate methyl bromide consumption phased out by the project.
