Institutional Strengthening (to Ozone layer Protection)
The Government initiated preparation of the Country Programme Update in 1998 with the assistance of the World Bank, UNDP and the industry, under which, the ODS consuming sectors were resurveyed. The updated country programme renewed and reinforced Indonesia’s commitment, strategy and action plans to eliminate ODS and is intended to serve as a guideline for future activities related to meeting Indonesia’s obligations under the Montreal Protocol. The Phase-out Management Plan for CFCs in the Refrigeration (Servicing) Sector in Indonesia will be implemented through a combination of Investment, Technical support, and Policy/Management support components. The investment component of the plan will focus on providing inputs to the service establishments, training establishments and major end users, enabling the industry to physically eliminate the use CFCs. The technical support component need to be supported through provision of a technical support component for ensuring that their phase-out actions and initiatives are not only technically sound but also sustainable, and consistent with the important priorities of the Government, which are to prevent industrial dislocation, obsolescence and adverse impact to the economy. The implementation of the Phase-out Management Plan for the Refrigeration (Servicing) Sector will need to be closely aligned and coordinated with the various policy, regulatory, fiscal, awareness and capacity-building actions, which the Government of Indonesia is taking and will need to take in future, in order to ensure that the implementation of the Plan is consistent with the Government priorities and its compliance obligations.
