050 OVERTIME AND NIGHT DIFFERENTIAlS

In the performance report prepared last year, the issue regarding high cost of overtime in Addis Ababa, which is very well known to the Office of Financial Services (see Gieri's letter of 17th May 1977) was again brought to your

attention. These high costs continued to affect our budget allotments considerably.

The problems of communication 'system in Africa are very well known and their impact in curtailing the activities of the Commission is clearly demonstrated by the expenditures usually incurred, on travel, telecommunica- tion and postal services. Indeed in recognitio~'of these'probieins, the United NattonsGeneral Assembly 'has:'had ,to. pass aresplutiondeclaring·

limited communication services were seriously disrupted. Quite often, the Commission found itself having only one method of communicating with the outside world and that was by cables, an undertakine which as already explained is very expensive. On the other hand, the Commission has met great financial difficulties in implementing the transport and

communication decade without sufficient resources. One of the examples is this object of expenditure. As no funds were specifically provided for communication for this project the cost has had to be met from the usual regular budget of the,Commission. The messages sent for the month of May 1979, by the Transport and Communication Programme were in the region of 56,900 words. This expenditure was mainly connected with the arrangements for regional meetings on transport and communication decade.

with effect from the beginning of 1980. .. ,. ...

It would be noted that we have proposed an increase of $USI5,OOO for the object of expenditure concerning General Temporary Assistance. This is mainly due to the fact that this object code was bound to be over spent because of the training facilities which have been extended by ECA to other UN Agencies and Diplomatic missions. The Agencies and Missions paid a fee for the

training provided to them and the money paid in 1978 was credited to the

miscellaneous account. This over expenditure would be off set by that income.

On the other hand, savings accumulated on the Fellowship and grant object code due to delayed commencement of the course, adjustments have been made to cover the over expenditure incurred in 1978 within this Section.

It should be further noted that ECA receives income from rental of premises. It was agreed that this revenue be utilized on repairs and

maintenance of the original office building and a portion for the construction costs of common service facilities in the new buildings. Also this income was to be utilized on electricity, water and other utilities. Work has already begun on the renovations and maintenance of the original building and the

income estimated at $US121,OOO from the rental of premises in 1978/1979 biennium would be mainly utilized on these projects:

urgently required. A _prov~~ion amounting $US57,900 for consultancy for the balance of the" biennium would appear to be on a higher side. But in fact already the co;;'sult:ants have, been identified and the matter cleared with Mr. Olivanes, New York Headquarters. (cable MBP 1962-8 of 22nd August 1979 refers). The Common Staff Costs object of expenditure is likely to be over spent que ,to reasons already explained. This over expenditure should be off set by, the savings indicated above.

These proposals for resource utilization for this programme are contained in Annex V of this report.
