Decision 24/7

March 1998
Implementation delays and status reports

The Executive Committee, having taken note of the Sub-Committee’s observations (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/24/4, paragraphs 20 to 23), decided:

(a) That as projects suffering from serious delays were relatively few, they could be highlighted on a case-by-case basis at each meeting, when any appropriate guidance could be provided to the implementing agencies;

(b) To urge the implementing agencies to make greater efforts to overcome existing delays and to take appropriate measures to avoid such delays in the future; and

(c) To request the Secretariat to analyze specific types of delay, such as bankruptcy, with the implementing agencies and present a paper on the subject to its next meeting.
