Decision 64/42

Following the report of the contact group, which stated that issues relating to the selection of alternative technology in the air-conditioning, refrigeration and foam sectors had been satisfactorily addressed, the Executive Committee decided:

1. To acknowledge with appreciation the commendable efforts made by Indonesia towards establishing forward-looking regulatory and policy action to sustain the HCFC phase-out;
2. To approve, in principle, stage I of the HCFC phase-out management plan (HPMP) for Indonesia for the period 2011 to 2018 to reduce HCFC consumption by 20 per cent of the baseline, at the amount of US $12,692,684, plus agency support costs of US $968,452, consisting of US $300,000 plus agency support costs of US $39,000 for the Government of Australia; US $8,901,102 plus agency support costs of US $667,583 for UNDP; US $777,395 plus agency support costs of US $58,305 for UNIDO; and US $2,714,187 plus agency support costs of US $203,564 for the World Bank;
3. To note that the Government of Indonesia had agreed to establish as its starting point for sustained aggregate reduction an estimated baseline of 402.2 ODP tonnes, calculated using actual consumption of 374.8 ODP tonnes reported for 2009 under Article 7 of the Montreal Protocol and estimated consumption of 429.5 ODP tonnes for 2010;
4. To deduct 135.0 ODP tonnes of HCFCs from the starting point for sustained aggregate reduction in HCFC consumption;
5. To note that approval of stage I of the HPMP did not preclude Indonesia from submitting, prior to 2015, a proposal to achieve a reduction in HCFCs beyond that addressed in stage I of the HPMP;
6. To approve the draft Agreement between the Government of Indonesia and the Executive Committee for the reduction in consumption of HCFCs, as contained in Annex XXIII to the present report;
7. To request the 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 change in the levels of maximum allowable consumption accordingly;
8. To request UNDP, as the lead implementing agency, to submit a funding request for heat exchanger conversion as a component of the first tranche of the HPMP for Indonesia, once the Executive Committee had taken a decision on the funding of conversion for heat exchanger manufacturing, on the understanding that the level of funding would be calculated on the basis of that decision and would not exceed a maximum of US $52,800 accordingly;
9. To request the Secretariat to update Appendix 2-A to the Agreement; and
10. To approve the first implementation plan for 2011-2012, and the first tranche of the HPMP for Indonesia at the amount of US $7,087,200 consisting of US $300,000 plus agency support costs of US $39,000 for the Government of Australia; US $4,000,000 plus agency support costs of US $300,000 for UNDP; US $777,395 plus agency support costs of US $58,305 for UNIDO; and US $1,500,000 plus agency support costs of US $112,500 for the World Bank.
