Since timely issuance and enforcement of annual HCFC import quotas are measures to ensure its compliance with the consumption targets of the Montreal Protocol. Since through the support provided by the previous project, Thailand was able to achieve this Comments: target throughout the project implementation period. The baseline value is, therefore set as “Yes”. This proposed project is expected to maintain the Government’s capacity to meet this critical requirement of the Montreal Protocol; IN00817368 ►Timely Article 7 data submission (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value Yes -- Yes Yes Date 31-Dec-2018 -- 17-Mar-2020 29-Dec-2023 Component 4 is to support operations of the NOU. Timely Article 7 Data Submission is one of the key obligations of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol. Since through the support provided by the previous project, Thailand was able to achieve this target throughout the project implementation period. The Comments: baseline value is, therefore set as “Yes”. This proposed project is expected to maintain the Government’s capacity to meet this critical requirement of the Montreal Protocol; IN00817372 ►Licensing and Customs system for tracking HFCs put in place (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value No -- No Yes Date 19-Sep-2019 -- 17-Mar-2020 01-Dec-2023 Policy or regulation that adjusts the licensing and customs system to enable robust tracking of HFC Comments: imports and exports IN00817376 ►Beneficiaries reporting satisfaction with key aspects of the Ozone Day public awareness activities (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 -- 0.00 50.00 Date 19-Sep-2019 -- 17-Mar-2020 25-Dec-2023 “Beneficiaries reporting satisfaction with key aspects of the Ozone Day public awareness activities” is a new indictor for conforming with the citizen engagement requirement. This indicator was not used prior to this project. Since this project will replace the old outdated and inefficient technologies with more environmental friendly products, this could result in higher initial costs of new products and possibly higher maintenance costs. However, due to improvement in energy efficiency or better insulation of new Comments: products the costs of using these products could be lower. However, it is not possible to foresee how the consumers’ reaction would be. The Government of Thailand agrees with the team that it will try to convey the message to its public and to maintain at least 50% support from the public throughout the project implementation period. 3/27/2020 Page 5 of 6 Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Thailand HCFC Phase-Out Stage II (P165235) Data on Financial Performance Disbursements (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Currency Original Revised Cancelled Disbursed Undisbursed % Disbursed Key Dates (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Approval Date Signing Date Effectiveness Date Orig.
