ARTICLE 7 -- PRIORITY TO AFRICA:
At the beginning of this
session, the G-77 and China proposed a new sentence regarding the
provision of financial resources, technical assistance and other
forms of support to assist affected African countries. This
proposal was eventually deleted and only one word in this article
remains bracketed: "In implementing the provisions of this
Convention, the Parties shall give priority to affected African
countries...while not neglecting other affected [developing]
regions."
