The Forty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:
(a) starting with its first meeting in 2004, to eliminate the Sub-Committee on Monitoring, Evaluation and Finance and the Sub-Committee on Project Review and to examine all items in plenary, making use of working groups as necessary;
(b) to start each meeting with an organizational session which would examine the business plans, the availability of resources and the status of compliance;
(c) to follow that organizational session with the review of projects;
(d) to adopt the new regime on a trial basis for a year and retain the possibility of recreating the two Sub-Committees if it felt that the trial had not been successful;
(e) to examine whether the new regime provided sufficient time-saving to permit reducing the number of meetings to two per year; and
(f) bearing in mind the objectives in subparagraphs (d) and (e) above, to request the Secretariat to submit to the final meeting in 2004 a report on operation of the first two meetings in the year.
