The Ninth Meeting of the Parties decided in Dec. IX/20:

  2. Notwithstanding paragraph 1 of the present decision, to allow the Secretariat, in consultation with the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel, to authorize a Party, in an emergency situation, to transfer some or all of its authorized levels of CFCs for essential uses in MDIs to another Party, provided that:
    1. The transfer applies only up to the maximum level that has previously been authorized for the calendar year in which the next Meeting of the Parties is to be held;
    2. Both Parties involved agree to the transfer;
    3. The aggregate annual level of authorizations for all Parties for essential uses of MDIs does not increase as a result of the transfer;
    4. The transfer or receipt is reported by each Party involved on the essential-use quantity-accounting format approved by the Eighth Meeting of the Parties by paragraph 9 of decision VIII/9.
