The Nineteenth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:
(a) to note the need to coordinate work on this subject and to request the Fund Secretariat to consult with other interested parties, such as agricultural departments at the national level and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations at the international level, to ensure that all concerned were aware of and working towards the same goals;
(b) to invite the United Nations Industrial Development Organization to take the lead in preparing, in collaboration with the other Implementing Agencies, a brief paper on the work currently in progress on alternatives to methyl bromide , funded both on bilateral and multilateral bases through financial programmes other than the Multilateral Fund, and to present it for the consideration of the Executive Committee at its Twentieth Meeting.
