![Page 10: General's Preliminary Proposals (200 EX](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022100222/586e0e911a28ab114f8bcbd1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The DG proposes the following two scenarios for the RP (assessedcontribution) ceiling for the 39 C/5;
Option 1: $653 million with an expenditure plan of $507 million:Zero Nominal Growth level of the 38 C/5 assessed contributionportion For this scenario, with a $507M expenditure plan, the Organization would have to
absorb $14.4M in real terms as compared to the current 38 C/5 $518Mexpenditure plan for which the ZRG level is $521.4 million. Under the currentsituation this would be extremely difficult.
Option 2: $667 million with an expenditure plan of $518million. In this scenario, we would have to absorb $3.4M in real terms as compared with
today’s $518M expenditure plan.
In addition, UNESCO needs to absorb new/additional costs (e.g. $3.2 million for UN ResidentCoordinator system, $1.2 million for Security and Safety Action Plan, and up to $2.0 million of RPactivity budget for evaluations).
The DG further notes that it would be very helpful, if a clear singleceiling for the assessed contribution together with clearprogramme priorities are determined by Member States at thisstage. UNESCO / 10
