These issues can then be discussed at the meeting, and co-ordinated with proposals and information from neighbouring States affected. Such discussions can also include problems inhibiting implementation and overall plans developed to alleviate the problem. Availability of all resources, co-operation between States, required manpower, equipment and funding need to be discussed and States should be urged to ensure that their delegations come to the meeting well equipped for such discussions and decision-making. available information within ICAO regarding ongoing and proposed technical co-operation projects will be presented to the meeting. The co-operation of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and other funding institutions should be sought for assistance. problems of foreign exchange to purchase equipment and spare parts, as well as the lack of qualified and experienced personnel should also be discussed.
