Following a discussion, the Executive Committee decided:
- To note the report of the Treasurer on the status of contributions and disbursements and information on promissory notes as contained in Annex I to the present report;
- In accordance with decision XI/6 of the Eleventh Meeting of the Parties, to urge all Parties to pay their contributions to the Multilateral Fund in full, as early as possible, and no later than 1 June of each year. Parties unable to make their contributions by 1 June should notify the Treasurer as to when during the calendar or fiscal year their payment would be made, but contributing Parties should strive to make their contributions no later than 1 November of that year; and
- To thank those Parties that had already made their contributions for 2007, in light of the relatively high rate of payment recorded at the second Executive Committee Meeting of the year as compared with previous years.
