Remedial and special education

Protocol relating to the application of the uniform 17.50 per cent countervailing charge

Accordingly, the Panel considers that compensatory restoration is appropriate in this case.

1.98 50,000 children with learning difficulties will have been provided with remedial education.

Support measures also need to be extended in the areas of commodity exports and compensatory financing, where there has so far been little follow up to the recommendations in the Programme of Action.

In the view of the Panel, such a preserve is feasible, cost effective and poses a low risk of adverse impacts.

Compensatory financing schemes need to be made user friendly and operational and turned into effective safety nets and innovative risk mitigants .

These modifications and adjustments reduce the expenses of the compensatory project to USD 46,113,706.

South Africa applied to IMF for a loan under its Compensatory and Contingent Financing Facility.

In assessing the appropriate compensatory restoration project for damage to shoreline resources, Kuwait considered six alternatives.

With regard to the proposed environmental education programme, Iraq states that it is a human services programme and not an appropriate form of compensatory restoration for loss of ecological services.

A remedial education initiative allowed 90,000 children to continue their learning, despite regular conflict related interruptions.

Some diversification activities have also benefited from bilateral programmes such as STABEX under the Lomé Conventions and the Swiss Compensatory Financing Programme.

One option could be to liberalize access to the Compensatory Financing Facility, liberalize its conditionality and introduce a subsidy element into it for low income countries.

However, the major IMF facility to compensate for terms of trade shocks, the Compensatory Financing Facility, has become increasingly ineffective.

Saudi Arabia states that this additional compensatory project is necessary because the proposed preserves would not provide adequate compensation for damaged salt marshes and mangroves. In the third F4 instalment, Saudi Arabia had submitted two claims for expenses to remediate the damage in this area.

Others have pointed out that utilizing the TIM may turn out to be difficult, as was the case for the IMF's Compensatory Financing Facility (CFF) in the 1960s.

Some have also made use of the compensatory financing facility, which provides additional financing to member countries experiencing balance of payments difficulties due to temporary factors largely beyond their control.

The Swiss Compensatory Financing Programme, which is similar to STABEX, is also providing assistance to least developed countries, mainly in Africa, in respect to shortfalls in commodity export earnings.

In those cases when the full amount of compensatory time earned during the course of mission assignment could not be granted owing to the exigencies of service, payments were authorized but measures were taken to ensure that this was effected only at the straight time rate.

Iraq also argues that the proposed supplement to the Jubail Marine Wildlife Sanctuary is not an appropriate form of compensatory restoration since Saudi Arabia has provided a very weak justification for its claim for the costs of the existing marine sanctuary.

Furthermore, financing vehicles with exceptional access limits, such as the Contingent Credit Line and Compensatory Financing Facility, should be reintroduced with more funding, lower costs and less conditionality.

The Agency's remedial and special education programmes ensure that children with learning disabilities receive specialized attention, including audio visual programmes, curriculum enrichment materials and self learning kits.

Since its modification early in 2000, which basically tightened conditionality for access, the Facility has not been used in spite of the additional shocks affecting developing countries.

The concepts of compensatory finance mechanisms to offset the poverty effects of preference erosion, and aid for structural development toward enhanced international trade in goods and services (in the spirit of the aid for trade initiative) were discussed extensively.

In order to stabilize earnings, one might consider making the IMF's Compensatory Financing Facility more attractive for developing countries market based price risk management instruments are not a solution for most developing countries.

Particularly relevant and important were the purchases amounting to SDR 944 million made by Czechoslovakia, India and Pakistan under the oil and export shortfall elements of CCFF.

There is an urgent need for external support to mitigate the adverse consequences arising from the Uruguay Round agreements on LDCs, particularly through substantially enhanced trade preferences as well as compensatory financing measures.

In 2005, critical activities from the medium term plan, as well as activities from the emergency appeals, including psychosocial support, remedial education and additional health care, are included as a lump sum adjustment to the originally approved regular budget.

The IMF Compensatory Financing Facility could also provide a buffer against export revenue shortfalls in the least developed countries resulting from external shocks, provided that the Facility was made available on a concessional basis.

The high level meeting may wish to consider the specific initiatives that may be required for international commodity agreements, compensatory financing mechanisms, technical assistance and market access measures to promote diversification (see para. 2.16 of Agenda 21).
