The Executive Committee decided to approve the 2007 annual work programme of the sector plan for the phase-out of ODS process agent applications (phase II) and corresponding CTC production on the understanding that:
- The seven applications from Table A-bis under decision XVII/8 of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol, which China had contested, should be included in the national annual CTC consumption control target for process agent applications, other than those in phases I and II, which had been set in the agreement at 14,300 ODP tonnes per year for 2006 and 2007; and
- The request for funding and support costs for the 2007 annual work programme would be submitted by the World Bank to the 52nd Meeting, together with a verification report on the implementation of the 2006 annual programme.
