Following the discussion, the Executive Committee decided:
(a) To clarify the technical reasons involved when referring to projects that had been cancelled because the funding level originally approved had been determined to be insufficient due to technical reasons;
(b) To determine the potential frequency of such projects, given the assumption that they would be rare;
(c) To establish the financial implications of allowing such projects to be resubmitted;
(d) To request the Secretariat, in consultation with the implementing agencies, to prepare a document on these issues; and
(e) To request the Sub-Committee on Monitoring, Evaluation and Finance to consider the recommendation further at its Ninth Meeting, taking into account the above points, and to report back to the Executive Committee at its Twenty-ninth Meeting.
