The
Eleventh Meeting of the Parties decided to request the Technology and Economic
Assessment Panel to study and report by 30 April 2003 at the latest on the
problems and options of Article 5 Parties in obtaining HCFCs in the light of
the freeze on the production of HCFCs in non-Article 5 Parties in the year
2004. This report should analyze whether HCFCs are available to Article 5
Parties in sufficient quantity and quality and at affordable prices, taking
into account the 15 per cent allowance to meet the basic domestic needs of the
Article 5 Parties and the surplus quantities available from the consumption
limit allowed to the non-Article 5 Parties. The Parties, at their Fifteenth Meeting
in the year 2003, shall consider this report for the purpose of addressing
problems, if any, brought out by the report of the Technology and Economic
Assessment Panel.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro.11/10,
Decision XI/28).
