Tripartite review meeting of the project RAF/86/053 PADIS Phase III : report

Abstract

UNDP pointed out that the Regional Programme had no additional funds for the personnel component not budgeted for 1991. Suggestions were made for the Project Coordinator to be hired beginning 1991 so that the savings could be phased into 1991. Also the budget lines for consultants as well as training could be reduced in order to stretch the activities into 1991. With that in mind, the meeting tasked ECA to re-examine the work plan and the budget in the light of the UNDP position. It was also suggested that ECA explores the possibility of redirecting savings from other related projects with the view to bridge-gap the PADIS activities. Yet, again some related projects could carry some of the PADIS activities. Reference was made to RAF/86/052 SDPA and TACOO/ECA was requested to explore that possibility.
