The Executive Committee decided:
- To note the report provided by UNDP and the Government of Lebanon, contained in document UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/83/11, describing the continuing challenges faced by the Government in sourcing commercially available alternatives with low global‑warming potential (GWP), such as HFOs, and the efforts made by the Government and UNDP to facilitate the supply of technology with low-GWP to the enterprises funded under stage II of the HCFC phase-out management plan for Lebanon; and
- To request UNDP to continue assisting the Government of Lebanon in securing the supply of low-GWP alternative technology and to report to the 84th meeting on the status of the conversion of the remaining beneficiary enterprises in both the foam and air-conditioning manufacturing sectors, including the small foam enterprises, and at each meeting thereafter until the technology originally selected or another technology with low-GWP had been fully introduced, along with an update from the suppliers on the progress made towards ensuring that the selected technologies, including associated components, were available in the country on a commercial basis.
