2. To approve the extension of the duration of stage I of the HPMP to 31 December 2021 on the understanding that no further extension would be approved;
3. To note that the Fund Secretariat had revised the updated Agreement between the Government of Senegal and the Executive Committee, contained in Annex XIII to the present report, specifically Appendix 2-A, to reflect the extension of the duration of stage I and the revised funding schedule which combined the third (2018) and fourth (2020) tranches, paragraph 9, Appendices 2-A and 5-A to reflect the change in lead implementing agency to UNEP and cooperating implementing agency to UNIDO, and paragraph 16, to indicate that the revised updated Agreement superseded that reached at the 77^th meeting;

To request the Government of Senegal, UNEP and UNIDO to submit a progress report on a yearly basis on the implementation of the work programme associated with the final tranche until the completion of the project, verification reports until approval of stage II, and the project completion report to the first meeting of the Executive Committee in 2023; and
5. To approve the combined third and fourth tranches of stage I of the HPMP for Senegal, and the corresponding 2020-2021 tranche implementation plan, at the amount of US $189,350 consisting of US $120,000, plus agency support costs of US $15,600 for UNEP, and US $50,000, plus agency support costs of US $3,750 for UNIDO, on the understanding that UNEP would include as part of the progress report referred to in paragraph (d) above the recommendations in the verification report submitted to the 85^th meeting.
