The Thirty-fourth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to approve the project for the phase-out of methyl bromide in cut flowers according to the conditions stipulated in Annex XII.20 to the present report.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/34/58, Decision 34/55, para. 75).
The Forty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee decided:
(i) to note with concern that, even though UNIDO had received funding for the preparation of a project proposal for the methyl bromide sector, in which participation by major stakeholders is foreseen, as required by the guidelines for preparation of such projects, UNIDO submitted a project for Uganda that did not reflect its actual methyl bromide consumption;
(ii) also to note that Uganda is in non-compliance with both the terms of the Montreal Protocol and the Executive Committee agreement;
(iii) further to note, however, that, with the same level of assistance originally agreed by the Fund, the Government of Uganda has undertaken a commitment to the Executive Committee and the Parties to the Montreal Protocol to achieve significant reductions leading to a complete phase-out of methyl bromide by 2007; and
(iv) to approve the change of technology foreshadowed in the progress report submitted by UNIDO and to request UNIDO to implement the project within the time and in the manner now proposed, on the understanding that UNIDO will submit annual progress reports prior to disbursement of annual tranches.
