The Thirty-seventh Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:
(a) to take note of the draft guidelines;
(b) to request members of the Executive Committee to submit comments on the issue to the Secretariat in time for a further discussion at the 40th Meeting of the Executive Committee;
(c) in the meantime, to allow consideration of some projects on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the relative need of the country to have an MDI project to ensure compliance, the relative cost-effectiveness of the project and the possibility that essential use applications for MDIs might be considered by the Parties as early as 2008.
