Approved by the Board on: 30 October 2020
The Board:
The cost of additional licenses associated with the use of wambo.org will be absorbed within the Secretariat’s existing license packages, which currently include some unused licenses. If further licenses are needed, costs and options to cover these costs will be evaluated by the Secretariat.
Costs relating to the expansion of the product catalog to include COVID-19 products, which are already being incurred as a result of the creation of C19RM under GF/B42/EDP11, will be managed within the existing budget and will be incurred independently of this decision.
There are no other anticipated budgetary implications at this time, as new buyer onboardings and transactions will be managed by existing staff.
