The Thirty-fifth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:
(a) to take note of the report contained in document UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/35/12;
(b) to request that, as far as possible, invoices for the purchase of ODS solvents by beneficiary enterprises be certified by the Implementing Agencies, with the co-operation of the National Ozone Units, for future verification;
(c) also to request the Implementing Agencies to include a list of all baseline equipment model and serial numbers or other means of identification in project documents and project completion reports;
(d) further to request Implementing Agencies to report in project completion reports on savings arising from the purchase of less costly equipment and/or lower incremental operating costs and/or higher incremental operating savings than anticipated and approved, providing assurance to the companies that the data would be used solely for Multilateral Fund purposes. In cases where enterprises did not receive full funding for conversion, they should be expected to quantify, in consultation with the relevant Implementing Agency, their commitment to provide counterpart funding, and confirm that figure after project approval. In case of savings, Agencies should return to the Multilateral Fund a pro-rata amount corresponding to the share of grant funding in the total eligible incremental cost;
(e) That HCFC 141b should no longer be proposed as the alternative technology to TCA in solvent-sector projects;
(f) to request Implementing Agencies to foresee the necessary measures in project documents and to provide information in project completion reports on safety, health and environmental requirements to ensure that the conversion was achieved while respecting appropriate safety, health and environmental protection standards.
