Standard components on monitoring and evaluation in project proposals

The Twenty-third Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:

(a) that utilised capacity should be deleted from the fifth bullet under baseline data as the other criteria would be sufficient to allow effective monitoring and evaluation;

(b) that a ninth bullet should be added to the milestones, as follows: "the beginning of project activities at the country level as stated by the Article 5 Party concerned. Where possible, these activities should be listed.";

(c) that the Monitoring and Evaluation Officer should be requested to report and provide advice in the future on the effectiveness of this additional milestone;

(d) that the Secretariat should propose milestones for non-investment projects for consideration at a future meeting;

(e) that the submission of project completion reports should be included as a milestone;

(f) that the standard components proposed in Annex X.3, as amended, should be included in investment project proposals as additional components.

The Twenty-ninth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to request the Senior Monitoring and Evaluation Officer to incorporate the destruction of ODS-based production machinery into the list of main evaluation issues.
