Please read this entire document. At its end, you will find holds calculations, focused on the U.S. and UK, for Phases I-VIII. The calculation are based on “an updated table on the status of all applications received and processed by the Secretariat, as at 28 February 2001.” This table is the most comprehensive application, holds and holder information the OIP has ever publicly released. Source: Report of The Secretary-General Pursuant to Paragraph 5 of Security Council Resolution 1330 (2000) OF 5 December 2000 (S/2001/186), Introductory statement by Benon V. Sevan Executive Director of the Iraq Programme at the informal consultations of the Security Council held on Thursday, 8 March 2001, http://www.un.org/Depts/oip/latest/BVS8March01.htm In his 8 March 2001 introduction to the Secretary General’s 2 March 2001 Phase IX 90 day report (1), Benon Sevan included “an updated table on the status of all applications received and processed by the Secretariat, as at 28 February 2001.” The above table was available at the OIP Website Url http://www.un.org/Depts/oip/latest/BVSchart.xls as of 12:00 p.m. EST, 14 March 2001. This table does not contain every application and hold, Phase I-VIII. If an application was held and then approved, the pertinent information will not be on this list. This file has three worksheets 1. Cumulative sector (e.g., water/sanitation, telecommunications) application totals for the 13% account (three northern governorates) 2. Cumulative sector (e.g., water/sanitation, telecommunications) application totals for the 53% account (center/south) * Includes, for each sector: A) Holds as percentage of the value circulated B) Holds as percentage of the value circulated + value approved by the Secretariat 3. Individual application information for all applications received and processed by the Secretariat as of 28 February 2001.
