Decision 56/51

The Executive Committee decided to approve the pilot project for validation of methyl formate in microcellular polyurethane foam applications (phase I) in Mexico at a total cost of US $291,500 plus agency support costs of US $21,862 for UNDP, noting that the project was consistent with decision 55/43(e) and that it had been designed to disseminate the results of the validation of methyl formate technology in microcellular polyurethane foam applications globally, and on the understanding that the project would be the final validation project for methyl formate in the manufacture of microcellular polyurethane foams, and that approval of the project was without prejudice to consideration of the future funding request for phase II of the project by the Executive Committee.
