RESOLUTION ON THE UNITED NATIONS INDUSTRAL DEVELOP- MENT FUND
The Council of Ministers of the Organization of African Unity meeting in its Thirtieth Ordinary Session in Tripoli, Libya from 20 to 28 February, 1978,
Mindful of the Lima Declaration and Plan of Action, and of the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 31/202 and 31/203 and the decisions of the UN Industrial Development Board related to the establishment of the Industrial Development Fund;
Deploring the Fact that the level of contributions so far attained during the First pledging Conference convened in New York, October 1977 for the year 1978 has only reached about 8.5 million dollars, which falls short of the target of 50 million dollars;
Concerned that without sufficient funds it will be difficult for UNIDO to provide the necessary technical assistance more effectively to the developing countries in order to enhance their industrialization:
CALLS UPON all Member States of the UN and Inter-Governmental Organizations especially these who did not contribute to make greater efforts to contribute more to the UNIDO;
REQUESTS the Secretary-General of the UN, the Administrative Secretary-General of the OAU and the Executive Director of UNIDO to take all necessary measures, in accordance with paragraph one, including making contacts with all Member States and Inter-Governmental Organizations to this end.
