Decision 34/18

July 2001
ODS consumption data in projects

Enterprise consumption and country data (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/34/19

Having considered the comments and recommendations of the Sub-Committee on Project Review (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/34/18, paras. 18 to 21), the Executive Committee decided:

(a) To request the Secretariat and the implementing agencies not to submit project proposals which showed inconsistencies between project data and the latest reported sectoral consumption data;

(b) Also to request the Secretariat to prepare, for submission to the Sub-Committee on Project Review at each meeting, a list of project proposals received by the Secretariat for which inconsistencies in reported data existed, listing inter alia latest sectoral consumption data, project ODS consumption data, date of establishment of production capacity, remaining consumption in the sector concerned and project costs;

(c) To approve the project proposals submitted to the current meeting, on the understanding that projects submitted to future meetings would be in compliance with the request in (a) above and that, at its first meeting in 2002, the Executive Committee could consider those projects that had been dropped from the 2001 business plans;

(d) That for those countries with data discrepancies, projects remaining in the 2001 allocation could be presented, once issues were clarified, to the March 2002 meeting, and would be counted against the 2001 business plans.
