2. To note that the Government of Egypt had agreed at the 62^nd meeting to establish as its starting point for sustained aggregate reduction in HCFC consumption the estimated baseline of 420.4 ODP tonnes, calculated using actual consumption reported in 2009 and estimated consumption for 2010;
3. To deduct 63.9 ODP tonnes of HCFCs from the starting point for sustained aggregate reduction in eligible consumption; and
4. To request UNDP and UNIDO to provide to the Fund Secretariat, at the end of each year of the projects’ 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 on the HCFC phase-out management plan, once it had been approved.
