The
Twentieth Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to invite the World Bank
to submit the Indonesian project at the Committee’s next meeting, using the
draft guidelines for the calculation of incremental costs (Annex IX.23) and,
for the purposes of comparison, calculating royalty fees as a technology
transfer fee in terms of both capital and operating costs.

Decision 20/44, para. 66).

The
Twenty-first Meeting of the Executive Committee, having considered the
recommendations of the Sub-Committee on Project Review on cost-effectiveness
thresholds in the tobacco sector and royalty fees, decided:
(a) to request the Secretariat and the
Implementing Agencies to consider new guidelines for cost-effectiveness
thresholds in the tobacco sector, taking into account the requirement of Action
6 under decision VII/22 of the Seventh Meeting of the Parties
(UNEP/OzL.Pro.7/12, Annex V) and the need to give priority to projects with the
highest cost-effectiveness, for submission to the Executive Committee at its
Twenty-second Meeting;
(b) that the paper should also consider the issue
of royalty fees.
(UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/21/36,
Decision 21/8, para. 8).
The
Twenty-third Meeting of the Executive Committee decided to request the
Sub-Committee on Project Review to reconsider, during 1999, the question of
guidelines for the tobacco sector as a whole, with a view to determining
whether the circumstances then prevailing with regard to cost-effectiveness
thresholds would allow further work to be done in that sector.

Decision 23/19, para. 40).
