1. to request the Executive Committee to complete the task of formulation of guidelines for funding the production sector on a priority basis and expeditiously;
2. to further request the Executive Committee to facilitate the formulation of projects for funding the CFC-production sector and their subsequent approval on a priority basis.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro.10/9, Decision X/17).
The Thirtieth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to defer consideration of project preparation requests for the production sector until technical audits had been undertaken.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/30/41, Decision 30/27, para. 52).
In response to a concern raised by one representative that, contrary to current policy, project preparation assistance was needed in advance to facilitate the audit, the Thirty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to request the Secretariat to clarify both past practices and current requirements of production sector project preparation assistance to facilitate further discussion and resolution of the issue at the next meeting of the Subgroup.

The Thirty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee also decided to request the Secretariat:
(i) in consultation with the World Bank, to develop, for consideration at the Thirty-second meeting of the Executive Committee, guidelines setting out an acceptable format and content for the verification report and a workable time scale for data submission with a view to enabling payment authorization at the first meeting of the Executive Committee each year;
(ii) to maintain the confidentiality of verification data, while ensuring that Executive Committee members had the necessary information to facilitate review and decision-making.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/31/61, Decision 31/47, para. 75(e)).
(Supporting document: UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/31/56).
The Thirty-second Meeting of the Executive Committee decided that the current procedure of approving project preparation funding after the completion of technical audit should continue to be applied.
