Concerning the umbrella project for the closure of two halon projects in India, the Thirty-second Meeting of the Executive Committee noted that it had been unable to reach consensus on the payment of lost profit, and:
(a) agreed that the Multilateral Fund should pay for the eligible cost of dismantling the two plants, and that it could consider providing funds for the displacement of labour in this case, on the basis of the actual cost of labour being displaced;
(b) requested the Sub-group to continue to work on the issue of payment for lost profit with a view to narrowing down the differences of opinion.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/32/44, Decision 32/79, para. 98).
The Thirty-third Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to note with appreciation the desire of India to explore the possibility of combining the phase-out of both halon production and consumption in a package, to pursue the discussion of the project in the Subgroup with a view to reaching a consensus on the funding level of the project at an early date and to request India and UNDP to consider the timing for implementing the project preparation for the halon non-recycling project approved at the Thirty-third Meeting, bearing in mind the possibility of combining the phase-out of both halon production and consumption in a package.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/33/32, Decision 33/57, para. 93(b)).
