1. The Finance Committee is being provided with the budget of the above-mentioned Commission for information.
2. The Agreement for the establishment of this Commission under Article XIV of the FAO Constitution was approved by the Council in June 1973. The Agreement came into force on 29 December 1975. Membership is open to all FAO Member Nations and Associate Members situated wholly or partly in the “Region” defined as the area bounded by latitudes 50o and longitudes 60o east and 130o west. Current Members are Australia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Indonesia, Iran, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
3. Under Article XV of the Agreement, each Member of the Commission undertakes to contribute annually its share of the budget in accordance with a scale of contributions to be adopted by a two-thirds majority of its Membership. At the 16th Session of the Commission held in 1991, the Commission approved an increase of 8 percent per year to its membership contribution to cover inflation. This measure was discontinued in 1998 but reinstated at the 25th APHCA session in 2001, becoming effective in 2002. The scale of contributions for 2003 was approved by the 26th APHCA session held in Subang Jaya, Malaysia and that of 2004 will be submitted for approval at the 27th APHCA session to be held in Pakistan in October 2003.
4. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Organization provides the Secretariat of the Commission. The Finance Committee at its 38th Session ruled that the inputs of the Organization should be in future shown jointly with the Commission’s budget so that the latter might be seen in its proper context. Accordingly, the attached tables reflect both the APHCA Trust Fund and expected Regular Programme contribution.
