The Executive Committee agrees to provide Mauritius with flexibility in using the agreed funds consistent with operational procedures as agreed between Mauritius and the Government of Germany in the TPMP;
(b) the Government of Mauritius agrees to ensure accurate monitoring of the phase out and to provide regular reports, as required by its obligations under Article 7 of the Montreal Protocol, by 30 September each year; and
(c) the bilateral agency will be responsible for reporting annually on the implementation of activities funded under the TPMP and providing verification to the Executive Committee annually that the ODS consumption reductions in the TPMP have been completed according to the above schedule.
