The
Seventh Meeting of the Executive Committee adopted a methodology for
consideration of project proposals, which involved placing projects in one of
the following five specific categories:
1. work programme amendments: projects involving
costs below US $500,000 which would be approved and funded as amendments
to Implementing Agency work programmes;
2. non-approval of work programmes: projects
involving costs below US $500,000 which would not be approved on policy
grounds;
3. final approval: projects over
US $500,000 which would be fully and finally approved and funded without
the need for further documentation;
4. non-approval of projects: projects over
US $500,000 which would not be approved on policy grounds; and
5. approval in principle: projects over
US $500,000 which would be approved in principle and might be given some
level of funding with the understanding that final approval and funding would
be provided following submission of further information. The levels of funding
for these projects might need to be adjusted when more adequate information was
provided.
NOTE:
The last category was amended to "permission to proceed".
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/7/30,
para. 53).
Implementing
agencies may propose within the context of their work programmes, or amendments
to work programmes, requests for `permission to proceed' with the development
of a group of projects.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/8/29
Annex III, para. 3.12).
