The Executive Committee decided:

1. To approve, in principle, stage I of the HCFC phase-out management plan (HPMP) for Honduras for the period 2011 to 2020, at the amount of US $691,000, comprising US $380,000, plus agency support costs of US $28,500 for UNIDO, and US $250,000, plus agency support costs of US $32,500 for UNEP;
2. To note that the Government of Honduras had agreed to establish an estimated baseline of 19.9 ODP tonnes as its starting point for sustained aggregate reduction in HCFC consumption, calculated using actual consumption of 17.8 ODP tonnes reported for 2009 and consumption of 22.00 ODP tonnes estimated for 2010, plus 0.8 ODP tonnes of HCFC-141b contained in imported pre-blended polyol systems, resulting in 20.7 ODP tonnes;
3. To approve the draft Agreement between the Government of Honduras and the Executive Committee for the reduction in consumption of HCFCs, as contained in Annex XVI to the present document;
4. To request the Fund Secretariat, once the baseline data were known, to update Appendix 2-A to the Agreement to include the figures for maximum allowable consumption, and to notify the Executive Committee of the resulting levels of maximum allowable consumption and of any potential related impact on the eligible funding level, with any adjustments needed being made when the next tranche was submitted; and
5. To approve the first tranche of stage I of the HPMP for Honduras, and the corresponding implementation plan, at the amount of US $192,250, comprising US $100,000, plus agency support costs of US $7,500 for UNIDO, and US $75,000, plus agency support costs of US $9,750 for UNEP.
