\n\t\t\t\tSummary<\/i>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tThe present report contains the financial performance report of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) covering the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997, for which resources amounting to $125,722,800 gross ($122,665,800 net) were provided. Corresponding expenditures amount to $126,744,400 gross ($123,504,400 net), resulting in additional requirements of $1,021,600 gross ($838,600 net). Of the additional requirements, an amount of $639,356 relates to the incident at Qana and will be charged to the financial authorization granted under the terms of paragraph 7 of <\/span>General Assembly resolution 51\/233<\/a> of 13 June 1997. The remaining additional requirements in the amount of $382,244 gross ($199,244 net) are attributable mainly to the upward revision in local staff salaries by 61.8 per cent effective 1 March 1997; the share of UNIFIL towards the financing of the United Nations Logistics Base, Brindisi; and the recording of certain expenditures pertaining to the financial period ending 30 June 1996 in the reporting period.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tThe action to be taken by the General Assembly as contained in paragraph 12 of the report includes an additional appropriation and assessment of $382,244 gross ($199,244 net) for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tI.\t\t<\/span>Introduction<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t1.\t\t<\/span>The Security Council, by its <\/span>resolution 1151 (1998)<\/a> of 30 January 1998, extended the mandate of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) to 31 July 1998.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t2.\t\t<\/span>The financial provision for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997 to maintain the operation of UNIFIL was approved by the General Assembly in its <\/span>resolution 50\/89 B<\/a> of 7 June 1996, which appropriated to the Special Account for UNIFIL the amount of $125,722,800 gross ($122,665,800 net) for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997, and apportioned the same amount among Member States.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tII. \t\t<\/span>Financial performance report for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t3.\t\t<\/span>Column 1 of annex I to the present report sets out by budget line item the cost estimates for maintaining UNIFIL for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997, as contained in annex I to the report of the Secretary-General of 20 February 1996 (A\/50\/543\/Add.1). The apportionment of the appropriation of $125,722,800 gross ($122,665,800 net) provided under resolution 50\/89 B is shown in column 2. Non-recurrent and recurrent expenditures are shown in columns 3 and 4, respectively. The expenditures recorded for the period are shown in column 5. Unliquidated obligations are shown in column 6. Variances, which reflect differences between the apportionment of resources and the actual expenditures, are shown in column 7 and result in additional requirements of $1,021,600 gross ($838,600 net) inclusive of the costs directly attributable to the incident at Qana on 18 April 1996 ($209,251) and costs related to the relocation of the Fiji battalion headquarters ($430,105).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t4.\t\t<\/span>Supplementary information on the financial performance report is presented by budget line item in annex II. The authorized staffing, incumbency and vacancy rates for civilian and military personnel for the reporting period are shown in annex III.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t5.\t\t<\/span>As shown in annex I, column 2, the total resources made available to UNIFIL for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997 amounted to $125,722,800 gross ($122,714,600 net). Expenditures recorded during the period (column 5) amount to $126,744,400 gross ($123,504,400 net). These include costs directly attributable to the incident at Qana as well as for the relocation of the Fiji battalion headquarters ($639,356) and the UNIFIL share towards the financing of the United Nations Logistics Base at Brindisi for the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997 ($436,300).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t6.\t\t<\/span>Expenditures totalling $2,995,200 for the period ending 30 June 1996 were recorded in the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997. Details are contained in table 1.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t7.\t\t<\/span>The reported expenditures during the period under review, excluding costs related to the Qana incident, were higher than their estimated costs and resulted in additional requirements mainly as a result of the upward revision in local staff salaries by 61.8 per cent effective 1 March 1997, an increase in the price of fuel, the share of UNIFIL towards the financing of the United Nations Logistics Base and the recording of certain expenditures pertaining to the prior financial period ending 30 June 1996.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t8.\t<\/span>Reported expenditures during the period were less than their estimated costs and resulted in unutilized balances under military personnel costs, supplies and services, and air and surface freight. The unutilized balances were due mainly to more favourable rates obtained for both commercial and government aircraft for troop rotations, the transfer of supplies from other missions and global requisitioning of freight charges for the transfer of items from other missions.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t9.\t<\/span>The additional requirements of $3,179,400 , exclusive of Qana, were offset in part by unutilized resources of $2,797,200, resulting in actual additional requirements of $382,200 (gross).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t10.\t<\/span>In paragraph 7 of its resolution 51\/233, the General Assembly authorized the Secretary-General to enter into commitments for UNIFIL in the amount of $1,773,618 to cover the costs resulting from the incident at the Fiji battalion headquarters at Qana on 18 April 1996. In paragraph 8 of the resolution, the Assembly decided that the total amount of $1,773,618 should be borne by Israel. To date, no payment has been received.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t11.\t<\/span>Of the commitment authorization of $1,773,618, actual ($1,030,640) and estimated ($131,153) expenditures as at 5 February 1998 amount to $1,161,793, leaving an unencumbered balance of $611,825. As indicated in annex II.B, the portion of expenditures incurred in connection with the incident at Qana in April 1996 and charged to the UNIFIL account during the period from 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997 amounted to $639,356 and included maintenance supplies ($185,985), construction\/prefab buildings ($365,663), communications equipment ($43,635), spare parts and supplies for communications equipment ($40,663) and medical treatment and services ($3,410). Details of the expenditures, by period, is shown in table 2.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t5.\t<\/span>Daily allowance.<\/i> The average troop strength of 4,509 during the period was slightly lower in comparison with the budgeted strength of 4, 513, resulting in unutilized resources of $13,000.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t6.\t<\/span>Travel and subsistence allowance.<\/i> The unutilized balance of $20,000 was due to the reduction in the number of military police assigned to Netanya, from five to three in May 1996 and the lower number of UNIFIL personnel travelling in the Tel Aviv\/Netanya area.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t7.\t<\/span>Emplacement, rotation and repatriation of troops.<\/i> Of the apportioned amount of $7,577,000, expenditures totalled $5,211,000, resulting in unutilized resources of $2,366,000. This was mainly attributable to the more favourable rates obtained for the charter of commercial and government aircraft as well as a lower than estimated number of repatriation cases for medical and compassionate reasons. Of the unutilized resources of $2,366,000, the amount of $290,900 was provided towards the financing of the United Nations Logistics Base at Brindisi, resulting in net unutilized resources of $2,075,100.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t9.\t<\/span>Contingent-owned equipment.<\/i> The additional requirement of $1,123,200 was due to a number of obligations pertaining to the mandate period ending 30 June 1996 that were inadvertently recorded in the fiscal year 1996\/97.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t13.\t<\/span>Local staff salaries<\/i>. Additional requirements under local staff salaries were mainly attributable to: (a) the increase in local staff salaries by 61.8 per cent effective 1 March 1997; and (b) the payment of a non-pensionable bonus, equivalent to 5.56 months' salary, based on the previous salary scale applicable to Naqoura, Lebanon. The authorized number of established local staff posts was 193. There was an average of 20 vacant posts during the period. The vacant posts were utilized to hire 20 local staff on special service agreement at an average rate of $920 per person per month.

Major activities included, but were not limited to, the repair of damage to existing buildings and alterations to the boundaries of the current camp at Fiji battalion position 1-20 at Qana; preparation of the electrical distribution system at the site for a new Fiji battalion headquarters, which will be reallocated as a result of the incident, which highlighted the fact that it is no longer operationally acceptable to have a battalion headquarters in a location encompassed by a growing town; repair of damage to buildings and electrical distribution system at Nepal battalion position 5-18; and placement of bulletproof glass into observation posts and completion of miscellaneous repairs to a number of other locations in the Fiji battalion and Nepal battalion areas. Supplies totalling $185,985 were procured as follows: corrugated iron sheets ($20,850), plexiglass windows ($4,055), aluminum sliding windows ($9,450), aluminum corrugated sheets ($4,150), bulletproof glass ($46,896), fence pickets ($7,274), electrical cables ($39,985) and electrical materials ($53,325). The additional requirements detailed above were reduced by unutilized resources of $5,385 since actual costs of miscellaneous supplies were lower than estimated. The resulting additional requirements therefore amounted to $180,600.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

It was decided that the Fiji battalion headquarters would be relocated from Qana to a new site, which involved the following construction works for the new headquarters: double-storey 21-room dormitory with shelter in the basement, an observation room on the roof and ablution facilities on each floor ($79,425), a single-storey 23-room dormitory with shelter\/operations room in the basement and ablution facility ($66,485), a single-storey 12-room dormitory with ablution facility ($29,834), a double-storey 25-room dormitory with shelter in the basement and ablution facilities on each floor ($82,373) and asphalting of the new headquarters and the road leading to the new headquarters ($47,690), for a total of $305,807. There was also an operational decision to relocate Fiji battalion position 1-16A, which involved the following construction works: a dormitory, including kitchen\/dining facility ($21,848), an ablution unit ($3,802), a shelter ($9,473) and electrical cables and fittings for new buildings ($11,004), for a total of $46,127. During the incident, it became obvious that under shelling United Nations troops were unable to conduct continuous observation because of the inadequate protection afforded by current observation posts. A concrete shelter\/operations room was therefore constructed at Nepal battalion position 5-11AB ($19,856). Of the recorded expenditures of $990,800, an amount of $365,663 was incurred in connection with the incident at Qana, while the balance of $625,137 was incurred for budgeted construction projects and prefabricated units.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

This was due to the transfer of 56 vehicles from other missions, as shown in table 5. However, the unutilized balance was offset in part by an amount of $145,400 provided for the financing of the United Nations Logistics Base at Brindisi and by recorded expenditures of $847,000 relating to the prior period ending 30 June 1996, resulting in a net unutilized balance of $414,800.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t28.\t<\/span>Vehicle insurance.<\/i> The additional requirement of $344,200 was due in part to an unexpected increase in worldwide third-party liability coverage for vehicles. A provision of $229,000 was made for insurance, but the actual cost was $403,700, resulting in additional requirements of $174,700. In addition, expenditures in the amount of $169,500 from the prior financial period ending 30 June 1996 were recorded in the 1996\/97 financial period, resulting in total additional requirements of $344,200.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t33.\t<\/span>Communications equipment.<\/i> Of the apportioned amount of $410,000, actual expenditures incurred totalled $713,400, resulting in additional requirements of $303,400. The move of the Fiji battalion headquarters to a new location necessitated the duplication of the equipment currently located at position 1-20. Position 1-20 provides communication links from Alyatun to the Fiji battalion and then by repeater to the Force Mobile Reserve. Rural links are also used to Fiji battalion positions 1-6 and 1-23. These links cannot be dismantled while new links are being installed, hence the need for duplicates. The following items in the total amount of $277,655, for which budgetary provision had not been made, were purchased for the above purpose: a Coral II telephone exchange ($22,770), one digital phone link ($10,231), five GM-300 radios ($1,840), one Canon fax, B340 ($1,044), one multiplex interface ($7,750), 159 intercom systems ($18,168), 53 power and RF amplifiers ($41,138), 204 cable assemblies ($9,064) and 182 crewman helmets ($53,326), fax switch ($77,984), 20 portable radios ($7,600), 40 mobile radios ($15,900) and five repeaters ($10,840). In addition, intercom systems were also purchased for armoured personnel carriers ($2,745) and expenditure in the amount of $23,000 pertaining to the period ending 30 June 1996 was recorded during the period under review. Of the total expenditures of $713,400 reported, the amount of $43,635 relates directly to the relocation of the Fiji battalion headquarters.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t34.\t<\/span>Spare parts and supplies.<\/i> The apportioned amount was $335,000. Total expenditures amounted to $350,100, of which $309,437 was incurred for the purchase of communications spare parts and repairs, resulting in an unutilized amount of $25,563. This was offset by expenditures of $40,663 associated with the relocation of the Fiji battalion headquarters, resulting in additional requirements of $15,100.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t40.\t<\/span>Data-processing equipment.<\/i> Additional requirements of $240,200 resulted from the need to replace worn-out equipment, to finalize linking the extremities of Naqoura Camp to the UNIFIL local area network, to upgrade personal computers and to purchase additional personal computers to implement a new Department of Peacekeeping Operations-wide field asset control system utilizing Lotus Notes. Additional expenditures were as follows: 34 serial mouse for personal computers ($414), one flatbed colour scanner ($1,140), one cable scanner tool ($4,950), 40 SMART UPS ($12,400), Network hardware – 24 transceivers ($2,880), two Cabletron SPIM-A repeaters ($255), four Cabletron MPIM-C repeaters ($3,371), two Cabletron MINIMAC repeaters ($1,705), 80 memory SIMMS for Pentium 60 MHZ personal computers ($1,600), 53 personal computers with 14-inch monitors for Windows ($79,468), 48 personal computers with 15-inch monitors for FACS ($75,216), two file servers for Lotus Notes ($52,900) and Data Link 3.0\/3.5 ($3,882).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t41.\t<\/span>Observation equipment.<\/i> Additional requirements of $66,600 were due to the replacement of 39 Lunos 4×4 binoculars ($48,400) and 25 searchlights ($18,200) for which budgetary provision had not been made.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t44.\t<\/span>Miscellaneous equipment.<\/i> Additional requirements of $3,900 were due to the need to purchase specialized hand tools for the Warm and Cold Workshop in Naqoura in order to carry out efficient repairs to different types of kitchen, heating and cooling equipment ($3,575) and engineering tools ($325).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t45.\t<\/span>Spare parts, repairs and maintenance.<\/i> Additional requirements of $19,900 resulted from the purchase of four flow meters for fuel trucks in order to have better control of fuel distribution ($3,200) and the recording of expenditures relating to the prior financial period ending 30 June 1996 ($16,700).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t47.\t<\/span>Contractual services.<\/i> Actual costs for contractual services were lower than estimated, resulting in unutilized resources for garbage collection ($25,600) and for emptying of cesspit tanks ($62,000). The bidding process provided for more bidders, which resulted in lower prices for those services.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t48.\t<\/span>Security services.<\/i> The additional requirement of $2,476 resulted from the fact that the cost of security services at Rosh Hanigra, Beirut, increased in June 1996 from $770 to $885.50 per month. This additional requirement was offset in part by an unutilized balance of $543 for the security service at Rosh Hanigra.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t49.\t<\/span>Medical treatment and services.<\/i> Additional requirements of $50,800 resulted from medical examinations and hospitalization provided away from the UNIFIL hospital.

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t52.\t<\/span>Medical supplies.<\/i> The unutilized balance of $75,500 was due to the transfer of supplies from other missions and donations from the Government of Germany and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). Medical supplies received during the period under review were as follows: 112 medical items valued at $48,800 from the Government of Germany, medicines and surgical materials from UNICEF ($13,500) and 14 medical items valued at $13,200 from UNPF.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t53.\t<\/span>Sanitation and cleaning materials.<\/i> The standard ratio for sanitation and cleaning materials had been set at $5 per person per month for all personnel. For UNIFIL, this equates to $299,520. However, the estimates were based on expenditure patterns during previous periods. Additional expenditures of $38,600 were incurred owing to the fact that additional sanitation and cleaning materials were required to maintain a minimum level of hygiene and cleanliness in order to prevent epidemiological hazards that could become a health problem for the troops.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t54.\t<\/span>Uniform items, flags and decals.<\/i> The unutilized balance of $254,400 was due to non-purchase of winter clothing ($132,800), the transfer of flak jackets from the United Nations Logistics Base at Brindisi ($60,800), items transferred from UNPF ($10,000) and sufficient stock from the previous mandate ($50,800).\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
