INTRODUCTION

1. The Third Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was held at the headquarters of the

United Nations Environment Programme, in Nairobi, from 19 to 21 June 1991.

I. OPENING OF THE MEETING

A. Opening remarks by the outgoing President of the Meeting of

the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on Substances

that Deplete the Ozone Layer

2. The outgoing President, Mr. David Trippier, welcomed the delegates to the Meeting, and said that it was a time of splendid achievement, marked by the advance from a 50 per cent cut in CFCs and a freeze on halons to the phasing out of both by the end of the Century, control of other substances, acknowledgement of the unique position of transitional substances, recognition of the real difficulties experienced by developing countries in complying with control measures and a greater emphasis on the importance of technology transfer in enabling developing countries to meet their obligations under the Protocol. Not only had control measures been made more effective, but

17 countries had acceded to the Protocol since June 1990. There were few examples in the history of diplomacy where so many nations had agreed solidly to address a common concern.

3. The London agreement had represented a great advance on Montreal and Helsinki, including in particular the very problematical development of a new funding mechanism. Mr. Trippier said that great credit was due to the untiring efforts of the Executive Committee and its Chairman and ViceChairman, Ambassadors Ristimaki and Mateos for making the Interim Multilateral Fund a reality. There was however still a long way to go. Above all, he said, was the need to develop country studies as the bedrock for robust and implementable action on a country by country basis.

4. Mr. Trippier observed that, at its Fourth Meeting this week, the Executive Committee had worked out framework agreements with the three Implementing Agencies UNEP, UNDP and the World Bank and agreed work programmes enabling those Agencies to carry out co-ordinated and wideranging operations for the rest of present year. Now the Committee would need to look forward beyond 1992 into the future.

5. It was important right from the start to be clear about the difference between "hard technology", such as equipment and sophisticated operations and processes, and "soft technology", including publications, personnel exchanges, education and training. He was happy that the United Kingdom was playing an important role in the Technical and Economics Assessment Panel. The strengthening of UNEP's Industry and Environment Office was another very welcome development. Although there were many sources of funding for technology transfer, particular emphasis had to be placed on the most costeffective and efficient measures available, appropriate to the particular country's agreed phaseout programme.

6. Mr. Trippier emphasized the importance of Parties ratifying the London Amendment, so that it could enter into force as planned on 1 January 1992. The next step was to make clear to the world the determination of the Parties to make noncompliance work and provide for an efficient implementation procedure.

7. Further amendment of the Protocol was another very important issue, since new findings, for example satellite data, were becoming available all the time and it now appeared that ozone depletion over the globe as a whole was running at twice the anticipated level. The European Community had already agreed to phase out CFCs by 1997 and hoped that other countries would do the same. The Protocol should be amended to reflect that situation. But that was not enough. The Technology and Economics Assessment Panel should be asked to assess the implications of phasing out halons, carbon tetrachloride and methyl chloroform also by 1997.

8. It would again be necessary to look more closely at transitional substances and confirm that the guidelines set in 1990 were in fact adequate, since mistakes could delay the planned phaseout of CFCs. The strategy of limiting the overall supply of ozone depleting substances had been successful beyond expectations and had encouraged industry to find different ways of cleaning, of blowing foam and of preserving food. The same sort of mechanism should be applied to the transitional substances, since the markets and industrial structure were much the same and the environmental problem similar. Since any phaseout date set in 1992 would be highly provisional and kept under constant review, it would be necessary to keep quantities down to acceptable levels right from the start.

9. What had impressed him above all in his office as President had been the strength of the Montreal Protocol as a dynamic, ever changing instrument.

B. Election of the President, three VicePresidents

and the Rapporteur

10. In accordance with Rule 21, paragraph 1 of the Rules of Procedure, the President, three VicePresidents and the Rapporteur were elected unanimously, on the basis of regional groups, as specified in the resolution 2997 of the United Nations General Assembly at its 2112th meeting on 15 December 1972:

President: Mr. Ojwang K'Ombudo (Kenya)

VicePresidents: Mr. Peter Chin Fah Kui (Malaysia)

Mr. Ryszard Purski (Poland)

Mr. Eduardo Lopez (Venezuela)

Rapporteur: Mr. John A. Whitelaw (Australia)

C. Statement by the President

11. The President welcomed all the participants to Kenya and expressed his gratitude for the honour bestowed upon him by his election. The work of the bodies created to implement the Montreal Protocol had lived up to expectations. He also paid tribute to the work of the Executive Director of UNEP, the Secretariat for the Vienna Convention and its Montreal Protocol and the outgoing President, Mr. David Trippier, Minister of the Environment of the United Kingdom. He hoped that the spirit of cooperation shown so far would continue to prevail as the work of the Parties was now at a crucial stage. The world community was eager for action on protection of the ozone layer, and he was sure that the Parties would not be found wanting in that respect.

D. Statement by the Executive Director of UNEP

12. In his statement, the Executive Director paid tribute to the effort of the outgoing President, his predecessor and the Bureau, which had left a lasting mark on international relations, and wished the new President and Bureau every success in their tasks ahead. The countries that had joined the Protocol since the London Meeting, including 13 developing countries, took the total of Contracting Parties to 71. The Interim Multilateral Fund had been established and had become operational on 1 January 1991 as decided by the Parties. The Chief Officer of the Fund had assumed his function in February and the Executive Committee had already worked hard to build a solid foundation for an unprecedented financial mechanism. The implementing agencies (UNDP, the World Bank and UNEP) had agreed co-ordinated programmes which had been examined by the Executive Committee over the past few days. He introduced the new Co-ordinator of the Secretariat for the Vienna Convention and its Montreal Protocol, Mr. Sarma. He paid tribute to the outstanding work done by Dr. Rummel-Bulska, Chief of the Environmental Law and Institutions Unit on making the Montreal Protocol a reality.

13. The Executive Director stressed that statesmanship of a high order would be needed in the future, as recent research by NASA and the WMO Global Ozone Observing System has established that depletion of the ozone layer was accelerating at a higher level than predicted and was spreading to non-polar regions. Even with an immediate phase-out of all CFCs and related components, ozone destruction would increase well into the next century.

14. Therefore the Executive Director stressed the importance of the London Amendment, which had been ratified so far by two Parties only. He urged Governments to speed up the process of ratification to ensure entry into force of the Amendment by 1 January 1992, noting that the USSR had signalled its ratification and that Sweden had agreed on 4 June 1991 to ratify. Several other Governments were in the process of ratification and China had acceded to the Protocol as amended in London. Ratification by China would mean that the level of the Multilateral Fund would need adjusting to US$200 million for the years 1991-1993, a matter the Parties should decide on at this meeting. China would need technical and financial support to move to implementation of the Protocol.

15. The Executive Director also addressed the difficulties encountered by the Fund because of delayed contributions; US$12.7 million had been received so far. He reminded the Parties that even if financial resources were available to developing countries, there was still the question of availability of technologies. Industry should be encouraged to make still further and faster progress in developing replacement chemicals and technologies so that all countries could be assisted to find solutions to their problems and those that

had not yet done so could become Parties to the Montreal Protocol. One of the success stories in the struggle to protect the ozone layer concerned Mexico, which was phasing out CFCs aerosols faster than some developed nations. There was a need to replicate such successes.

16. Another pressing need addressed by the Executive Director was the monitoring of non-compliance and the reaction of the Parties to delayed reporting of data. Guidance from the meeting would be helpful for the finalizing of the study of non-compliance procedures. Other matters for the meeting to consider included the responsibilities of countries operating on the basis of Article 5 which exceeded a consumption level of 0.3 kg per capita per annum; the application by one country from the Western European and other group to be considered as a developing country for the purpose of the protocol; and a number of trade issues.

17. Extraordinary progress had been made under the Montreal Protocol thanks to public opinion, a real spirit of partnership established between the Parties, and the work of the Assessment Panels. The second report from the Assessment Panels, to be completed before the end of 1991, together with other issues, might signal the need for the further amendment of the Protocol.

18. Finally, the Executive Director recommended that the next Meeting be held in September 1992, to allow the Open-Ended Working Group of the Parties to consider any adjustments and amendments necessitated by the report of the second assessment. He expressed his conviction that although there were still many difficulties to be overcome, the spirit of co-operation and the progress achieved so far were such that the damage done to the planet could be corrected.

IV. SUBSTANTIVE MATTERS

23. The Preparatory Meeting had proposed that Rules 23 and 24 of the Rules of Procedure of the Meetings of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol be amended to read as follows:

Rule 23

If the President is temporarily absent from a session or any part thereof, he shall designate a VicePresident to act as President. Rule 24

If an officer resigns or is otherwise unable to complete his term of office or to perform his functions, a representative of the same Party shall be named by the Party concerned to replace him for the remainder of his mandate.

The proposed amendments were adopted without objection.

24. The delegate of China said that the gradual reduction in the volume of ozone depleting substances was a vital element in the protection of the environment. Only combined efforts of Contracting Parties and developing countries at the Second Meeting of the Parties, in which China had played an active part, had enabled the Amendment to the Protocol to be adopted, thus tightening up control measures and providing financial support for activities of developing countries in the cause of environmental protection. Against that background the delegation had expressed at the Second Meeting the clear intention of his country to accede to the Amended Protocol. In the meantime the necessary technical structures had been set up and the legal formalities for accession completed. The Instrument of Accession had been deposited with the United Nations as Depositary on 14 June 1991. A year ago, with the help of an Expert Working Group from UNDP, China had completed a study on the phaseout of controlled substances and formulated a threeyear plan for the first phase of implementation of the phaseout.

25. Many delegations welcomed the statement and congratulated China on its accession to the Montreal Protocol and recalled China's valuable input into discussion of the proposed financial measures of the Second Meeting. Several also observed that early discussion of a country programme with China would be necessary and the total sum of the Multilateral Fund increased accordingly. One Delegation announced an immediate increase in its contribution to the Multilateral Fund to US $2m and looked forward to the time when it would be possible to tear up those parts of the Protocol which dealt with nonParties. Many delegations expressed wishes to expand co-operation with China and referred in this connection to their on-going and planned activities. There was general agreement that China's accession to the Montreal Protocol was an essential step in the process of implementing the Montreal Protocol.

26. The delegation of the Republic of Korea said that its Government, concerned by the level of environmental contamination, had already imposed strict measures to protect the ozone layer by legislative measures and institutional restructuring, but felt bound to draw attention to the very adverse effects which such measures were likely to have on young industrial countries. In view of the extent of investment in CFC manufacture, any drastic reduction in output could result in serious unemployment and social unrest. Nevertheless legislation had been passed and would be implemented. It was hoped that this cooperative attitude would be met by a voluntary transfer of technology and appropriate financial resources. Success would only be possible if developing and developed countries worked together.

27. The delegate of Malaysia said that, when his country became Party to the Protocol in November 1989, parallel action had been taken to introduce Customs Control regulations to monitor CFC and halon imports, but unfortunately that had given rise to technical difficulties and countries with developing economies required time to adjust to the provisions of the protocol. It was during the interim period that noncompliance tended to occur. Malaysia, as a country operating under Article 5, paragraph 1, had already initiated processes for the elimination of CFCs and halons from the aerosol, solvent, cleaning, refrigeration, air conditioning, fire protection, foam manufacturing and other sectors. The Implementation Committee was a very important organ. Malaysia further suggested that its efficiency could be greatly improved by an equitable distribution of the membership between developed and developing countries. The delegate of Malaysia said that the establishment of the Multilateral Fund as a new and additional financial resource was precedent-setting and it could well be a future model. Malaysia, as a member of the Executive Committee of the Multilateral Fund, had made a positive and constructive contribution to the work of the Committee and faithfully represented the views of other developing countries in the Asian region.

28. One delegation pointed out that the Amendment to the Protocol, made at the time of the Second Meeting, was an important contribution to environmental protection, but had been overtaken by some recent scientific findings, which necessitated more stringent regulations. Phaseout could of course only be achieved by a transfer of technology to the developing countries. This delegation among others was sponsoring a draft resolution, stressing the urgency of the situation, and hoped that other delegations would rally to its support. The country's national plan provided for phaseout of all currently controlled substances to be complete well before 1997. Another most important issue was the need to provide Assessment Panels with their terms of reference well in advance, to enable them to organize their work.

29. A nongovernmental organization reported on the establishment and implementation of control measures in one area of a country in accordance with Article 2 of the Protocol, which had been revised and updated after the Second Meeting of the Parties. This had resulted in a 30 per cent reduction in total consumption of controlled substances in 1990 in the area, corresponding to

70 per cent of the 1986 level. The organization stated that this represented a major effort in the spirit of the Montreal Protocol and wished to contribute both technically and financially to the global efforts to protect the ozone layer.

30. The Chairman of the Scientific Assessment Panel, Dr. R.T. Watson, said that assessments of scientific and environmental impacts and a technology/economic assessment had been initiated that would provide the scientific and technical information required as a basis for possible amendments to the amended Montreal Protocol to be considered by the Parties at their Fourth Meeting in 1992. The scientific assessment would include a discussion of: trends in ozone and other chemical constituents both globally and regionally; comparison of observed and calculated ozone trends; prediction of atmospheric chlorine loading, ozone depletion and the contribution to global warming for a number of scenarios concerning CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs and the space shuttle, and a revised table of ozone depleting and global warming potentials. The environmental impacts assessed would cover human health (skin cancer, eye cataracts and suppression of the immune system), terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, material damage and tropospheric oxidants. The technology/economic assessment would review the technical and economic aspects of substitution of CFCs for refrigerants, foam blowing agents, solvents and aerosol propellants, and halons. The synthesis document would be completed, translated in all languages and sent to the printers by

1 December 1991. The latest satellite and groundbased ozone data demonstrated that the rate of ozone depletion at mid and high latitudes in both hemispheres was greater than previously measured. In addition, current gasphase photochemical models underestimated by factors of 25 the observed ozone loss. While the cause of the observed ozone depletion had not been unequivocally identified, the ozone changes coupled with other atmospheric data were strongly suggestive of a chlorineinduced effect. The new scientific data, coupled with simple model calculations of atmospheric chlorine loading, suggested that the following measures would be required in order to minimize the projected peak chlorine loading, ozone depletion, elimination of the Antarctic Ozone hole and the observed midlatitude ozone loss: a reduction in the emissions of longlived CFCs, CCL4, CH3CCL3 and halons, as soon as possible, with global compliance; transitional substitution for longlived CFCs with HCFCs having the shortest possible lifetimes, hence low ODP values; the recycling of HCFCs to the maximum extent possible, the notinkind substitution of CFCs wherever practical; phaseout of HCFCs sometime during the next century (phaseout date should depend upon the atmospheric lifetime of the substitute); and possible emission rate limitations. Parties should recognize that HCFCs were not all equal; those with short lifetimes, i.e., 15 years, posed a significantly lower threat to the ozone layer and global warming than those with moderate lifetimes, i.e., greater than 15 years.

31. Since one delegation objected to the inclusion of parts of above paragraph 30, it was agreed that the text should be referred to the Chairman of the Scientific Assessment Panel for review and any necessary revision.

32. The Chairman of the Implementation Committee, Ms. Bjorklund, recalled that the Committee had been established to respond quickly to early indications of noncompliance, with the aim of resolving problems amicably and obviating the need for recourse to formal arbitration or the International Court of Justice. This was a new way of solving such conflicts and, if successful, would set a precedent in the environmental field. However, as the Brundtland Commission had stressed, all aspects relating to agreements and mechanisms for dealing with noncompliance needed to be precisely defined. At its meeting in December 1990 and April 1991, the Implementation Committee had studied the draft noncompliance procedures developed by the Ad Hoc Working Group of Legal Experts and had called for central clarifications and for consideration of new elements for inclusion as outlined in the Committee reports (documents UNEP/OzL.Pro/Imp.Com.1/2 and 2/3). A number of these issues were reflected in draft Decision III/2 to be considered by the Parties, but further guidance from the Parties would be useful. The Implementation Committee had also examined the data reported in accordance with Article 7 of the Montreal Protocol and concluded that reporting was not satisfactory: of 71 Parties, only 31 had reported complete data for 1986. Of the remainder,

19 had reported incomplete data, 6 had reported no data available and/or requested assistance, 2 had reported that their data were included in those of another Party and 13 had not reported data. Of 48 Parties required to report data for 1989, only 23 had complied by May 1991, and only 20 of these had submitted complete data. Some developing countries were experiencing serious reporting problems owing to lack of technical and economic resources. She noted that the Ad Hoc Working Group of Legal Experts had suggested several ways of solving these problems, including the establishment of import control by customs regulations based on a harmonized commodity system. The Implementation Committee had stressed the need for technical and financial support to countries to enable them to comply with the provisions of the Montreal Protocol with regard to data reporting and felt that the Multilateral Fund was of assistance in this regard. Establishing noncompliance when the only resource was the lack of such support would only hurt the developing countries.

33. Discussing the draft decisions recommended for adoption by the Preparatory Meeting, draft Decision III/2 (Noncompliance procedure), as amended, was adopted.

34. In regard to draft Decision III/3 (Implementation Committee), two delegations felt that it was important to clarify that the noncompliance procedure should be without prejudice to the operation of the settlement of disputes procedure laid down in Article 11 of the Vienna Convention. Draft Decision III/3, as amended, was adopted.

35. It was suggested that the Montreal Protocol Handbook (draft

Decision III/4) might with advantage be made available for sale, and also that it could be issued in a computerreadable version. The draft decision was adopted.

36. Draft Decision III/8 (Trade names for Controlled Substances) was adopted with the amendments recommended by the Bureau. It was recommended that when the list of trade names had been finalized, it should be annexed, for reference, to the instruction sheet for the formats for reporting of data.

37. Draft Decision III/10 (Destruction Technologies) was adopted with the amendments proposed by the Bureau. One delegation drew attention to the large body of expertise available and recommended the participation of other experts, perhaps in the capacity of observers.

38. During discussion of draft Decision III/13 (further adjustments to and amendments of the Protocol) it was agreed that the OpenEnded Working Group should be requested to submit a report on the proposals to the Fourth Meeting of the Parties. Some delegates requested clarification in regard to the position of a country operating under Article 5, paragraph 1 which exceeded the 0.3 kg ceiling for controlled substances, in particular whether that would lead to its disqualification. Many delegations believed that the Protocol was clear on that point. In view of the serious consequences to the Party concerned, the matter was referred to the OpenEnded Working Group of the Parties for examination and any recommendations that might be necessary. Draft Decision III/13, as amended was adopted.

39. The Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Interim Multilateral Ozone Fund of the Montreal Protocol, Mr. Ilkka Ristimaki, introduced the draft report of the Fourth Meeting of the Executive Committee (UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/4/12) and informed the meeting of a number of amendments that should be reflected in the report.

40. The Chairman summarized the actions and decisions taken by the Executive Committee with regard to the operation of the Interim Multilateral Ozone Fund during the first year. The legal basis and the financial regulations were drawn up in good time to enable the Fund to become effective from

1 January 1991, with Montreal as the venue of its Secretariat. Mr. Omar ElArini, appointed as Chief Officer, assumed his functions in February 1991 and all staff would have been recruited by the end of 1991. The Executive Committee had held four meetings, the first in September 1990. He expressed the Committee's gratitude to UNEP and the Canadian authorities for interim Secretariat services.

41. The Executive Committee had adopted provisional rules of procedure for its meetings which were submitted to the meeting of the Parties for endorsement (document UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/3/18, Annex II). Further, a revised 1991 budget was presented for the adoption of the Parties in the same report (document UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/3/18, Annex I). The threeyear budget for 19911993 was presented for adoption in two separate documents, the administrative budget for the Fund Secretariat in document UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/3/18, Annex IV and the operational budget in document

UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/4/11/Rev.1. A revised version of the threeyear budget would need to be prepared and presented to the Parties in the light of the decision of China to accede to the Protocol. The scale of contributions by Parties to the Fund required updating to take account of new states not operating under Article 5, paragraph 1 which had become Parties, the unification of Germany and the accession by China to the Protocol.

42. The Committee had developed and adopted "Implementation Guidelines and Criteria for Project Selection" (document UNEP/OzL.Pro./ExCom/3/18,

Annex III). Each Party was invited to draw up a country programme to serve as a basis for project operation and financing from the Fund.

43. Tripartite interagency agreements had been signed between UNEP, UNDP and the World Bank and individual agreements between these agencies and the Executive Committee were ready for signing. At its fourth meeting the Executive Committee approved work programmes by the three agencies for 1991.

The total amounts approved to the agencies as of 18 June 1991: UNEP US$1,676,920; UNDP US$1,261,800; World Bank US$5,000,000, yielding a total of US$7,938,720.

44. At its next meeting the Executive Committee would consider country programmes, separate projects submitted by Parties, possible additional proposals by the implementing agencies for the 1991 work programmes, and proposals for the agencies work programmes for 1992 and 1993.

45. The Chairman referred to the terms of reference of the Executive Committee which stated that the office of chairman was to rotate on an annual basis between the Parties operating under paragraph 1 of Article 5 and the Parties not so operating. For the annual rotation to take place the two groups of countries should be invited to select the Chairman and the ViceChairman accordingly and present their selection to the Parties for endorsement.

46. Referring to the need to revise the scale of contributions, the Assistant Executive Director proposed that the total amount of contributions for 1991 agreed by the Second Meeting of the Parties should remain unchanged but that the total amount of contributions in 1992 and 1993 be increased by

US$20 million each year, raising the threeyear total from US$160 million to US$200 million. In accordance with the United Nations regular budget scale of
assessment, the percentage contributions of new states will be: Bulgaria 0.15, Czechoslovakia 0.66 and Poland 0.56. The revised percentage contribution for unified Germany would be 9.36. The contributions for 1992 and 1993 would be recalculated accordingly. One delegation emphasized the need to take into consideration the difficulties being experienced by countries undergoing economic transition, particularly in Eastern and Central Europe.

47. A number of delegations paid tribute to the work of the Executive Committee and of its Chairman and Vice-Chairman and welcomed the progress made. One delegation noted the need to develop quickly strategies for funding country programmes which would maximize available resources. One delegation clarified that its inkind contributions to the Multilateral Fund would include transfer of technology, provision of expertise and training. Another delegation expressed the hope that strategies could be developed and put into effect quickly so that money earmarked for bilateral and regional projects could be utilized.

48. The representative of the World Bank welcomed the progress made by the Executive Committee. Preparatory work in countries not party to the Protocol had placed the World Bank in a position to respond quickly when those countries joined, as was the case with China. A number of studies had identified suitable investment programmes but commitments could not be made unless funds were available. He therefore emphasized the need for timely contributions. He drew attention to the possibility of assisting countries not covered by the Multilateral Fund through the Global Environment Facility.

49. After some discussion, including the approval of certain amendments to the Rules of Procedure for meetings of the Executive Committee, the Meeting endorsed the Rules of Procedure as contained in Annex VI of this report, and adopted decisions concerning the Interim Multilateral Ozone Fund

(Decision III/22). The revised 1991 budget for the Fund Secretariat was adopted as contained in Annex VII to this report. The three-year plan and budget for the Fund Secretariat and the three-year budget for Fund Operations are contained in Annexes VIII and IX, respectively. The revised scale of contributions was adopted as contained in Annex X.

50. The Assistant Executive Director introduced the revised budgets for 1991, and proposed budgets for 1992 and 1993 for the Trust Fund for the Montreal Protocol prepared after consultation with the subgroup set up by the Preparatory Meeting to consider the matter in detail. Although a number of changes had been made in individual budget lines, the overall total of the 1991 budget showed no change from that adopted by the Second Meeting of the Parties and no additional contributions from Parties would be necessary. He emphasized that the proposed budgets would only be viable if all Parties paid their contributions as far as possible early in the year. The Parties noted the status of contributions in 1990 and 1991 as contained in Annex III and the 1990 expenditures as contained in Annex IV to this report. The Parties adopted a decision on budgets and financial matters (Decision III/21). The revised 1991 budget and the 1992 and 1993 budgets adopted by the Parties are contained in Annex I to this report and theadopted list of contributions to be made by the Parties is contained in Annex II of this report.

51. During discussion on the proposed annex to the Montreal Protocol containing a list of products containing controlled substances, one delegation expressed doubt regarding the desirability of including portable fire extinguishers. Another delegation said that their inclusion was necessary in terms of Article 4, paragraph 3. One delegation raised the possibility of including transportation refrigeration units. It was pointed out that the subgroup set up by the Preparatory Meeting had considered that issue but had recommended that they should not be included in view of the implications for trade in refrigerated goods, especially foodstuffs. Two delegations felt that to do so would impinge on sensitive areas covered by GATT. One delegation requested that the legal position with regard to GATT be clarified. One delegation stated its understanding from Article 4, paragraphs 3 and 3 bis, that nonParties had the right, at the time of joining, to object to the annex. The list was adopted, with the title amended to ensure that it was unambiguous (Decision III/15). The Parties adopted the list as contained in Annex V of this report. The Secretariat agreed to identify the relevant Brussels nomenclature numbers as well as those of the Harmonized Commodity Systems. It was pointed out that the products listed in Annex D could also be manufactured without containing controlled substances. The Parties emphasized that the products listed in Annex D are only those that contain controlled substances.

52. During the discussion on agenda item 8, one delegation stated that the data reported for his country in accordance with Article 7 had not been authorized by the Government but had been provided on an unauthorized basis. Now that the country was a Party to the Montreal Protocol, it would be in a better position to collect official data. In discussions regarding its country programme, it had been agreed with the World Bank that clarification of the data would be sought during implementation of the programme, due to start in September 1991. He hoped that the matter could be clarified prior to the Fourth Meeting of the Parties. The Meeting was informed that the Secretariat would obtain further information from this country.

53. After discussion of a draft decision on assessment panels, an amended text was adopted (Decision III/12). Some delegations stated that their countries, in view of their current economic and financial situation, would be unable to adapt to a more stringent timetable for ozone depleting substances control than that set out by the Second Meeting of the Parties or to comply with the obligation to include various transitional substances in the list of controlled substances.

54. After considering draft Decision III/20 (Composition of the Implementation Committee), it was decided to retain the present geographical distribution of members of the Implementation Committee, but to increase the number to ten. It was also decided to delete the last sentence of paragraph 3 of Annex III (Noncompliance procedure) contained in document UNEP/OzL.Pro.2/3 (Report of the Second Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol) and to amend the word five to ten in line 2 of the paragraph. One delegation proposed a consequent amendment to subparagraph (e) of Decision III/3 (Implementation Committee), confirming the present five members of the Implementation Committee in office for a further year and calling on the geographical groups to nominate five further members for election to the Committee for a period of 2 years. Decision III/3 (e) was adopted after the election of the five further members. Parties should take account of legal and technical expertise when nominating members. The amendment to Annex III of document UNEP/OzL.Pro.2/3 was adopted.

55. During consideration of the accession of Turkey to the Montreal Protocol, the Secretariat introduced the Executive Director's explanatory note on the list of developing countries. On a point of order, one delegation objected to consideration of the issue, since the Secretariat had not reported on the administrative and financial implications in accordance with Rule 14 of the Rules of Procedure. The same delegation mentioned that the note in question was no more than background information addressed to the Bureau of the Second Meeting of the Parties and in no way complied with provisions of Rule 14. The delegation proposed that, as there were serious implications, consideration be deferred until the Fourth Meeting of the Parties. The Secretariat explained that the actual implications had been pointed out in the note and that it had complied with Rule 14. Some delegations commented that the item had been included in the agenda circulated well before the Meeting and adopted by the Parties. After some discussion, the Parties agreed to consider the subject at the Meeting.

56. The delegation of Turkey said that its Government wished to apply for developing country status on the grounds that it was considered as a developing country by a number of international organizations, its per capita GNP was US$1,300 per annum, and its consumption of controlled substances was only 0.07 kg per capita. A member of the Bureau of the Second Meeting of the Parties introduced a draft decision recommended by the Bureau for consideration by the Parties. Many delegations expressed support for the inclusion of Turkey on the list of developing countries. However, some concern was expressed in connection with Turkey's application for membership of the EEC and about reopening the list of developing countries in general. It was pointed out that countries not eligible for support from the Multilateral Fund could apply for assistance through the Global Environment Facility. There was a consensus that the OpenEnded Working Group of the Parties should be requested to study and further define the criteria to be applied to any new Party seeking classification as a developing country. One delegation proposed that consideration be given to a new category to include countries which neither contributed to nor received support from the Multilateral Fund. The Meeting adopted Decision III/5.

57. The Rapporteur announced that the Parties operating under Article 5, paragraph 1, had agreed that the composition of the group of Parties so operating would be as follows for the second year of the operation of the Executive Committee: two seats for Latin America and Caribbean, two seats for Africa and three seats for Asia. The Asian group had selected Sri Lanka as its third member country in the Committee. Sri Lanka would occupy that seat for one year after which it would rotate to Africa. In the third year, the position of the ViceChairman would rotate to the group of Parties operating under Article 5, paragraph 1 and that group had earmarked Asia for that position. In the same year Brazil would occupy the seat vacated by Mexico, which would resign from the Committee after completion of its second year. The membership from the group of Parties operating under Article 5, paragraph 1, for the second year would be as follows: Egypt, Ghana, Jordan, Malaysia, Mexico, Sri Lanka and Venezuela. The membership from that group in the third year will be as follows: Brazil, Egypt, Ghana, Jordan, Malaysia, Venezuela and a member to be nominated by the African Group. The Rapporteur further reported that, as required by the terms of reference for the Executive Committee, the Group of Parties operating under Article 5, paragraph 1, had selected Mexico for the post of Chairman of the Executive Committee. A representative of the Parties not operating under Article 5, Paragraph 1 stated that the members representing this group of Parties in the Executive Committee would continue for the second year and that USA has been selected by this group as the Vice-Chairman of the Executive Committee. The Parties noted the decisions of the two groups of Parties regarding the composition of the Executive Committee.

58. During discussion of the date and venue for the Fourth Meeting of the Parties, the Parties welcomed the announcement by the delegation of Denmark that its Government wished to host the Meeting. It was agreed that the Fourth Meeting of the Parties should be convened in September or October 1992 (Decision III/18). The dates would be finalized in cooperation with the Secretariat and circulated as soon as possible.

(a) To request the Assessment Panels and in particular the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel to evaluate, without prejudice to Article 5 of the Montreal Protocol, the implications, in particular for developing countries, of the possibilities and difficulties of an earlier phase-out of the controlled substances, for example of the implications of a 1997 phase-out;

(b) Taking into account the London Resolution on transitional substances (Annex VII to the report of the Second Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol), to identify the specific areas where transitional substances are required to facilitate the earliest possible phase-out of controlled substances, taking into account environmental, technological and economic factors, where no other more environmentally suitable alternatives are available. The quantities likely to be needed for those areas and for those areas of application currently served by transitional substances shall both be assessed;

Decision III/13. Further adjustments to and

amendments of the Montreal Protocol

To request the OpenEnded Working Group of the Parties, to consider the following proposals which are aimed at possibly amending the Montreal Protocol and to submit a report on these proposals to the Fourth Meeting of the Parties:

(a) Article 7, paragraph 5 (of the amended Protocol):

"In cases of trans-shipment of controlled substances through a third country (as opposed to imports and subsequent reexports), the country of origin of the controlled substances shall be regarded as the exporter and the country of final destination shall be regarded as the importer. In such cases, the responsibility for reporting data shall lie with the country of origin as the exporter and the country of final destination as the importer. Cases of import and reexport should be treated as two separate transactions; the country of origin would report shipment to the country of intermediate destination, which would subsequently report the import from the country of origin and export to the country of final destination, while the country of final destination would report the import.";

(b) To review all relevant articles of the Montreal Protocol in order to consider the possible consequences of a country which is operating under Article 5, paragraph 1 of the Protocol, exceeding the consumption ceiling of 0.3 kilograms per capita specified in that Article;

(c) To discuss measures including possible amendments to the Protocol to clarify the situations of such a Party with respect to the Article 2 control measures and in particular to specify:

The base year which should apply to such a Party for the purpose of the reduction schedule;
The stage of the reduction schedule with which it should be in compliance;
What (if any) period should be allowed to the Party to enable it to comply fully with the control measures;

(d) To consider the possible implications of a Party losing its

Article 5 (1) status if it is at the time a member of the Executive Committee of the Interim Multilateral Fund; Decision III/14. Amendment of the Rules of Procedure

To amend the Rules of Procedure as follows:

(a) Rule 23 delete paragraph 2;

(b) Rule 24 delete the words "other than the President", and substitute the words "of the Bureau."

Decision III/15. Annex to the Montreal Protocol

(a) To adopt as an Annex D to the Montreal Protocol, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 10 of the Vienna Convention, the list of products containing controlled substances. The annex is contained in Annex XI of the report of the Third Meeting of the Parties;

(b) To request the Secretariat to identify the Customs Code Numbers for the items on the list from the Customs Co-operation Council. The Customs Code Numbers will be submitted for acceptance by the Fourth Meeting of the Parties;

The list so developed should be submitted for consideration by the Fourth Meeting of the Parties; Decision III/20. Composition of the Implementation Committee

To change paragraph 3 of Non-compliance Procedure as in Annex III to the report of the Second Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol:

"3. An Implementation Committee is hereby established. It shall consist of ten Parties elected by the Meeting of the Parties for two years, based on equitable geographical distribution. Outgoing Parties may also be

re-elected for one immediate consecutive term."; Decision III/21. Budgets and Financial Matters

(a) To request the Secretariat to submit as soon as possible to all Parties certified and audited accounts of the Montreal Protocol Trust Fund for the expenditures under the Fund for the 1990 financial year;

(b) To request the Secretariat to submit to the Parties the certified and audited accounts for 1989 of the Interim Ozone Secretariat;

(c) To request the Secretariat to submit certified and audited accounts for subsequent years prior to regular meetings of the Parties;

(d) To emphasize that expenditures incurred due to recommendations by the Bureau should only be met either within the budget adopted by the Parties for that year or by other additional contributions made towards these expenditures;

(e) To emphasize that it is essential to avoid increases in already adopted budgets in the years to which they relate;

(f) To urge all Parties to pay their outstanding contributions promptly and to also pay their future contributions promptly and in full in accordance with the terms of reference and the formula for contributions as attached to as Annex II to the report of the Third Meeting of the Parties;

(d) To endorse the proposal to raise the total amount of the Interim Multilateral Fund by US$40 million to US$200 million over the three-year period 19911993;

(e) Adopt a revised scale of contributions set out in Annex X to the report of the Third Meeting of the Parties;

(f) To endorse the selection of Mexico to act as Chairman and of the United States of America to act as ViceChairman for the second year of the Executive Committee.

VI. OTHER MATTERS

60. The representative of Switzerland drew attention to the following statement by the Heads of delegations representing the Governments of Sweden, Finland, Norway, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Denmark (replacing the draft resolution proposed in document UNEP/OzL.Pro.3/CRP.2):

"We, the heads of delegations of Sweden, Finland, Norway, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Denmark, believe that the recent analysis of the state of the stratospheric ozone layer calls for the adoption of more stringent control measures at the Fourth Meeting of the Parties in 1992.
We are also of the opinion that the substitution of the controlled substances with transitional substances must be as moderate and temporary as possible.

We note that the London resolution urges the adoption, in accordance with the spirit of the paragraph 11 of Article 2 of the Protocol, of more stringent measures in order to protect the Ozone Layer.
Because of this we express our firm determination to phaseout the production and the consumption of CFCs, halons and carbon tetrachloride controlled by the Montreal Protocol, as soon as possible but not later than the year 1997 and to phaseout 1,1,1trichloroethane (methyl chloroform) as soon as possible but not later than the year 2000. We also think it is necessary to tighten the timetable agreed upon in the Montreal Protocol taking due account of the special situation of developing countries.
We are also determined to limit by no later than 1995 the use of transitional substances (HCFCs) to specific key applications where other more environmentally suitable alternative substances or technologies are not available, and to phaseout their use in those areas as soon as technically feasible."

61. The delegation of the Netherlands expressed sympathy with the above statement but commented that the action programme in force in its country would probably result in levels of reduction similar to those described in the above statement and that endorsement of the statement would preclude discussions on more stringent controls currently taking place with

representatives of industry at the national level. An annual report on the phaseout programme was published and could be made available to interested Parties.

62. One delegation suggested that the agenda for the next meeting of the Parties should include an item covering the status of the reporting of activities by individual countries in compliance with the requirements of articles 4 and 9 of the Montreal Protocol.

63. The delegate of Germany informed the Meeting that the Federal Government was currently preparing a conference to be held from 24 to 26 February 1992 in Berlin, at which, inter alia, the results of the research activities supported by Germany would be presented. The conference was intended to provide an opportunity for an international exchange of information and experience, which should also be of special interest to developing countries. The results would be published in the form of conference proceedings (also in English). This report would be made available to interested parties, not restricted to participants in the conference.

VII. ADOPTION OF THE REPORT

64. The Meeting adopted the present report, on the basis of the draft report contained in documents UNEP/OzL.Pro.3/L.4 and /L.4 Add.1, 2, 3 and 4, at its closing session on 21 June 1991.

VIII. CLOSURE OF THE MEETING

65. After the usual exchange of courtesies, the President declared the Meeting closed.

Annex XI

FORMATS FOR REPORTING DATA UNDER THE AMENDED MONTREAL PROTOCOL

INTRODUCTION SHEET

1. The data formats are for the use of the Parties in reporting data on the production, import and export of each individual substances listed in the annexes of the Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, as required by Article 7.

2. There are 6 forms for reporting the required data:

(a) Data for the base years for controlling production and consumption

For reporting 1986 data, as required by Article 7, paragraph 1:

Form 1: Annex A substances

For reporting 1989 data, as required by Article 7, paragraph 2:

Form 1: Annex B substances

Form 2: Annex C substances

(b) Annual reporting of data for the year the Protocol enters into force for the country in question and for each year thereafter, in accordance with paragraph 3

Form 4: Annex A substances

Form 5: Annex B substances

Form 6: Annex C substances

3. Please report the data in metric tons, without multiplying by the relevant ODPS (Ozone Depleting Potentials). The data on each substance should also include isomers [Note 1.1.1. trichloroethane (methyl chloroform) does not include 1.1.2. trichloroethane].

4. The data reported in accordance with the formats will be used to determine the calculated levels of consumption upon which the control measures are based. It is thus crucial that data be provided separately for each individual substance listed in the formats.

5. Please note that both paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 7 provide that the Parties should submit the best possible estimates where actual data are not available.

6. In accordance with the recommendation of the Ad Hoc Group of Experts on the Reporting Data, which held its first meeting at Nairobi on 6 and 7 December 19910, the Parties are requested to report on the extra production as allowed to meet the basic domestic needs of countries operating under paragraph 1 of Article 5 of the Protocol. The quantity of the production increase and the country to be supplied by this production increase should be reported under "quantity" and "destination".

The export figures as well as the production figures reported should include the increased amounts of production for supplying the countries operating under Article 5, paragraph 1. The allowable increase in production should also be reported as metric tonnes.

7. In accordance with the recommendation of the Ad Hoc Group of Experts on the Reporting of Data, which held its first meeting at Nairobi on 6 and 7 December, 1990, countries having freetrade zones inside their territories should make a special effort to include in their data reporting production, import and export figures for such zones.

8. In accordance with the recommendation of the Ad Hoc Group of Experts on the Reporting of Data, which held its first meeting at Nairobi on 6 and 7 December 1990, the quantities of controlled substances used for refilling the refrigeration and fireextinguishing systems of ships in ports should be regarded as forming part of consumption of the country with jurisdiction over the part and should therefore, not, be included in its exports figures.

9. With regard to the data on "amounts destroyed", the Parties, decided at their Second Meeting, to establish an Ad Hoc technical advisory committee on destruction technologies to analyse destruction technologies and to assess their efficiency and environmental acceptability, so as to develop approval criteria and measurements. Separate data on the amounts destroyed need not be reported until such approval criteria are established.

10. Amounts used as feedstocks, e.g. amounts of carbon tetrachloride used as feedstock in the production of CFC 11 and 12, should be reported. They are to be subtracted from total production (see definition production).

11. No separate column has been included to record on the amounts recycled or reused. However, these amounts are not to be regarded as production (see definition of production).

DEFINITIONS

1. "Production" means the amount of controlled substances produced, minus the amount destroyed by technologies to be approved by the Parties and minus the amount entirely used as feedstock in the manufacture of other chemicals. The amount recycled and reused is not to be considered as "production" (Article 1, paragraph 5 of the Amendment).

2. "Consumption" means production plus imports minus exports of controlled substances (Article 1, paragraph 6, of the Protocol and the Amendment).

3. "calculated levels" of production, imports, exports and consumption mean levels determined in accordance with article 3 (Article 1, paragraph 7, of the Protocol and the Amendment).

4. "Transitional substance" means a substance in annex C to the Protocol, whether existing alone or in a mixture. It includes the isomers of any such substance, as may be specified in annex c, but excludes any transitional substance or mixture which is in a manufactured product other than a container used for the transportation or storage of that substance.

5. Methyl chloroform is 1,1,1trichloroethane and does not include 1,1,2trichloroethane.
