* TEAP and the Open-ended Working Group had recommended approval of an exemption for South Africa for 1999 of 69 tonnes of CFC-11, 174 tonnes of CFC-12 and 3 tonnes of CFC-114 for use in MDIs for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. At the request of the representative of South Africa, the nomination was deleted from the table following the country's reclassification as a developing country Party.
** Three metric tonnes of CFC-12 for sterile aerosol talc authorized as an emergency use for 1997. Any residual quantity available at the end of 1997 could be used in 1998 if needed to effect a safe transition to a non-ODS alternative.
