Possible funding arrangements

A continuation and expansion of these services will require additional arrangements and funding.

(a) The status of possible funding arrangements, including a financial package to be provided by the host country

From 1997 onwards, and following changes in the overall programming arrangements, no explicit funding provision was made for PAPP.

61. Underlines that the funding for administration of justice, based on cost sharing arrangements, should be clear, predictable and secure

Thus, the Board is concerned that the preparations undertaken so far could to some extent become irrelevant if the funding arrangements, as well as the appropriate legal arrangements, are not promptly finalized.

UNFPA also suggested that new partnerships and funding arrangements such as sector wide approaches (SWAps) raised issues of attribution and accountability.

(d) Report of the Secretary General on the status of possible funding arrangements for the capital master plan (A 58 729)

Funding arrangements are an important part of the issue, but we should put this matter in the perspective of the overall picture.

(d) UN Habitat has also encouraged the development of multi year core funding arrangements by donors that increase the predictability of their support.

50. Stresses the importance that all entities participating in specific arrangements in place at headquarters duty stations for sharing the costs of the central security and safety services should provide prompt and secure funding for such arrangements

Emphasizes also that the programming arrangements constitute the operational tool and resource allocation mechanism for implementation of the UNDP multi year funding framework, 2004 2007

The practical arrangements for hosting the secretariat have continued as during the interim period, with the host Governments providing the facilities and funding as agreed.

The funding and institutional elements of this process should be further elaborated after PrepCom 3 has developed more detailed text on funding and institutional arrangements for SAICM, and how guidance would be provided to countries for the implementation of SAICM.

Innovative public private funding arrangements (with public seed money leveraging commercial contributions) can be used to finance water and sanitation infrastructure, although negotiating cost recovery arrangements for the private sector participants that are acceptable to all parties and sustainable can be difficult.

Responding to a concern that country offices were not able to participate in new pooled funding arrangements, the secretariat said that country offices have the necessary flexibility.

Of this, some 12 per cent was covered from contributions that were made to UNV directly (Special Voluntary Fund, cost sharing, trust funds and full funding arrangements).

As of 2005, it has restructured the indigenous education funding arrangements to states and territories in order to accelerate improvement in educational outcomes for Australia's indigenous students.

(c) Promote innovative funding mechanisms and multi stakeholder arrangements on all levels, on a voluntary basis, including the engagement of sports organizations, civil society, athletes and the private sector

Mr. Alarcón (Costa Rica) said that the information provided by the Acting Controller regarding the funding arrangements for disarmament and demobilization activities should be distributed to delegations in writing.

The European Union fully supports the Secretary General's call in his report In larger freedom for a more predictable humanitarian response, including in the areas of standby arrangements, funding and coordination capacity.

At an operational level, the Union is determined to see improvements in the predictability of humanitarian funding and capacity and standby arrangements, inter alia through the modernization of the Central Emergency Revolving Fund.

Funding modalities voluntary funding, assessed contributions and negotiated replenishments

In 2001, UNDP established the Democratic Governance Thematic Trust Fund (DGTTF) as a new instrument for providing it with additional resources with which to address development priorities in democratic governance, and as an alternative to traditional funding arrangements.

Thanks to the generosity of the Government of Switzerland, which provided funding, the secretariat was able to make travel arrangements enabling the attendance at the meeting of one representative from each developing country or country with economy in transition.

Delegations had highlighted four main areas of concern the structure of the Mission the staffing of regional subregional offices the funding arrangements for disarmament and demobilization activities and the language of paragraph 19 of the Secretary General's report (A 59 756).

In particular, minimizing duplication in fiduciary arrangements, monitoring procedures and reporting mechanisms, as well as conducting joint country missions can streamline funding and reporting flows and enhance countries' capacity to use funds in the most effective and timely way possible.

Activities relating to the Expert Group on Technology Transfer (EGTT) and the CGE are already included in the core budget, so the existing practice represents an anomaly in funding arrangements for all constituted bodies, which the proposed step would rectify.

The view was expressed that in paragraph 60 (d) of the report, the use of the word donors was too general, since not all the donors are able to make multi year core funding arrangements owing to their budgetary systems.
