Ambassador Carlos Pérez del Castillo (Uruguay)
E.i Updated information on technical cooperation activities
41. The Chairperson informed the Council that, since the last meeting, a notification of updated information on technical and financial cooperation activities had been received from Norway. This notification could be found in document IP/C/W/109/Add.6. For the year 1998, the Secretariat had received updated information on technical and financial cooperation activities from 16 Members. If Members also took into account information provided in the previous years, the Council had received information altogether from 18 different Members. There were still some developed country Members that had not provided information on their technical and financial cooperation activities. Since the December meeting, the Secretariat had, as suggested by the Chairperson at that meeting, contacted those Members that had not yet provided such information. He urged those Members to provide information on their activities as soon as possible.
