Funding of updates of RMPs

The Thirty-third Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:

(a)  proposals to update refrigerant management plans should be in conformity with decision 31/48 and should be accompanied by:

      (i)   a progress report from Implementing Agencies on the status of work being undertaken in the projects approved as part of the refrigerant management plan; and

      (ii)  a written justification from countries for additional activities, explaining how the additional activities were related to the refrigerant management plan and the country’s phase-out commitments.

(b)  the level of funding of such requests could be up to 50 per cent of the level of funding approved prior to the Thirty-first Meeting for the preparation of the original refrigerant management plan;

(c)  approval of the additional funding would be contingent on submission of the progress reports and the written justification referred to above.

(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/33/32, Decision 33/13, para. 31).

The Thirty-seventh Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to request the Secretariat, in collaboration with the Implementing Agencies and interested Executive Committee members to prepare a document on the issue of whether RMP activities included in business plans could be submitted as new terminal phase-out management plans if countries requested agencies to do so, taking account of the content of Decision 31/48, for consideration at the 38th Meeting.

(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/37/71, Decision 37/70, para. 121 (a)).
