Having considered the comments and recommendations of the Sub-Committee on Project Review on the renewal of institutional strengthening in countries where there are delays in project implementation (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/25/17, paragraphs 9 and 10), the Executive Committee decided to request the Secretariat, in cases where a renewal request for an institutional strengthening project had been received:
(a) To implement the guidelines for renewal;
(b) To continue to examine what progress had been made in the implementation of the country’s phase-out programmes; and
(c) To draw to the attention of the Executive Committee any issues that delayed project implementation so that it could take an informed decision.
