The Executive Committee decided:
- To approve on an exceptional basis, and without setting a precedent, the project for the phase-out of HCFC-141b from the manufacturing of polyurethane rigid foam at Pavusin, at a total cost of US $271,150 plus agency support costs of US $20,336 for UNIDO, with the conditions stated in subparagraphs (b) and (c) below;
- To request UNIDO and the Government of Croatia to deduct 1.95 ODP tonnes (17.73 metric tonnes) of HCFCs from the starting point for sustained aggregate reductions in eligible consumption to be established by Croatia’s HCFC phase-out management plan (HPMP);
- To request UNIDO to provide to the Secretariat at the end of each year of the project’s implementation period progress reports that addressed the issues pertaining to the collection of accurate data in line with the objectives of decision 55/43(b), and to include those reports in the implementation reports of the HPMP, once it had been approved; and
- To defer its consideration of the project to phase out HCFC-141b from the manufacture of polyurethane rigid and integral skin foams at Poly-Mix in Croatia to a subsequent Meeting.
