Status of collection of assessed contributions,

including Member States in arrears in the payment

of their contributions to an extent that would justify

invoking Article 7 of the Constitution

Report by the Director-General

STATUS OF COLLECTION

1. In order that WHO may deliver the approved programme budget, contributions from Member

States must be received in full and on time. Under Financial Regulation 6.4, all Member States are

required to pay their contribution as of 1 January of the year to which it relates.

2. Contributions for 2017 were received, either in full or in part, from 151 of the 196 Members and

Associate Members (compared with 139 Members and Associate Members in 2016).1 Details of

amounts assessed and collected are shown in Annex 1.

3. Unpaid contributions as at 31 December 2017 amounted to US$ 92.2 million and

Sw.fr. 81.5 million (constituting a combined total of US$ 175.5 million) with a further US$ 26.4 million

due under special arrangements authorized by the Health Assembly (compared with US$ 65.9 million

(combined total) and US$ 30.5 million (due under special arrangements), respectively, at

31 December 2016). Details of payments made as at 31 December 2017 under special arrangements are

shown in Annex 2.

MEMBERS’ CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED IN ADVANCE

4. As at 31 December 2017, some Members had made advance payments, either in full or in part,

against their regular budget contributions for 2018 and future years. In total, contributions received in

advance as at 31 December 2017 amounted to US$ 51.8 million (US$ 50.4 million at

MEMBERS IN ARREARS AND SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS

5. Article 7 of the Constitution states that, if a Member fails to meet its financial obligations to the

Organization, the Health Assembly may suspend the voting privileges to which a Member is entitled.

If, at the time of the opening of the Health Assembly, a Member is in arrears in an amount that equals

or exceeds the amount of contributions due from it for the preceding two full years, the Health

Assembly takes a decision on suspension of the Member’s voting privileges in accordance with

resolution WHA41.7 (1988).

6. In accordance with previous Health Assembly resolutions, the voting privileges of the following

five Member States continue to be suspended: Central African Republic, Comoros, Guinea-Bissau,

Somalia and Ukraine. Details of the amounts outstanding are provided in Annex 4. The suspension is

to continue at the Seventy-first World Health Assembly (in 2018) and subsequent Health Assemblies

until the arrears have been reduced to a level below the amount that would justify invoking Article 7

of the Constitution.

7. In accordance with resolution WHA70.8 (2017), if, by the time of the opening of the

Seventy-first World Health Assembly, Gambia, Grenada and South Sudan are still in arrears in the

payment of their contributions to an extent that would justify invoking Article 7 of the Constitution,

their voting privileges shall also be suspended as from the opening. Details of the amounts outstanding

are provided in Annex 4. The suspension will then continue at the Seventy-second World Health

Assembly (in 2019) and subsequent Health Assemblies until the arrears have been reduced to a level

below the amount that would justify invoking Article 7 of the Constitution.

8. Annex 2 lists the 10 Member States that currently have special arrangements for repayment of

arrears approved previously by the Health Assembly. Payments amounting to US$ 4.1 million were

received in 2017 (compared with US$ 5.0 million in 2016) in accordance with these special

arrangements. Seven of the Member States concerned have respected their commitments under these

arrangements. Three Member States, Afghanistan, the Central African Republic and Ukraine, are not

respecting their commitments. Of those three Member States, the Central African Republic and

Ukraine have already had their voting privileges suspended. In the case of Afghanistan, unless further

payment is made by the opening of the Seventy-first World Health Assembly, it will lose its voting

privileges.

9. As at 19 March 2018, eight Member States, namely Bangladesh, Cameroon, El Salvador, Libya,

Niger, Niue, Suriname, and Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of), were in arrears in the payment of

their contributions in amounts that equal or exceed the amounts due from them for the preceding two

full years, as listed in Annex 4. One Associate Member, Puerto Rico, was also behind with its assessed

contributions.

10. Pursuant to resolution WHA41.7, unless there are exceptional circumstances justifying a

different measure, the Seventy-first World Health Assembly may wish to adopt a resolution deciding

that the voting privileges of the eight Member States mentioned in paragraph 9 will be suspended as

from the opening day of the Seventy-second World Health Assembly, if at that time the Member

States concerned are still in arrears to an extent that would justify invoking Article 7 of the

Constitution.

11. Member States in arrears of payment to the extent referred to above are encouraged to submit

proposals to the Health Assembly for repaying such arrears over an extended period. Such proposals

for special arrangements are considered by the Programme, Budget and Administration Committee of

the Executive Board, which subsequently makes its recommendations to the Health Assembly. To

date, no new proposals have been submitted for consideration in 2018.

ACTION BY THE HEALTH ASSEMBLY

12. No action is required by the Health Assembly in respect of those Members whose voting

privileges have already been suspended under previous Health Assembly resolutions.

13. The Health Assembly may wish to consider the following draft resolution in respect of

Bangladesh, Cameroon, El Salvador, Libya, Niger, Niue, Suriname, and Venezuela (Bolivarian

Republic of), in accordance with the principles stated in resolution WHA41.7:

The Seventy-first World Health Assembly,

Having considered the report on status of collection of assessed contributions, including

Member States in arrears in the payment of their contributions to an extent that would justify

invoking Article 7 of the Constitution, and special arrangements for settlement of arrears;1

Noting that, at the time of opening of the Seventy-first World Health Assembly, the

voting rights of the Central African Republic, Comoros, Gambia, Grenada, Guinea-Bissau,

Somalia, South Sudan and Ukraine were suspended, such suspension shall continue until the

arrears of the Member States concerned have been reduced, at the present or future Health

Assemblies, to a level below the amount that would justify invoking Article 7 of the

Constitution;

Noting that Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cameroon, El Salvador, Libya, Niger, Niue,

Suriname, and Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of) were in arrears at the time of the opening of

the Seventy-first World Health Assembly to such an extent that it was necessary for the Health

Assembly to consider, in accordance with Article 7 of the Constitution, whether the voting

privileges of those countries should be suspended – for Afghanistan at the opening of the

Seventy-first World Health Assembly in 2018, and for the remaining eight Member States at the

opening of the Seventy-second World Health Assembly in 2019,

DECIDES:

(1) that, in accordance with the statement of principles set out in resolution WHA41.7

(1988), if, by the time of the opening of the Seventy-second World Health Assembly,

Bangladesh, Cameroon, El Salvador, Libya, Niger, Niue, Suriname, and Venezuela

(Bolivarian Republic of) are still in arrears in the payment of their contributions to an

extent that would justify invoking Article 7 of the Constitution, their voting privileges

shall be suspended as from the said opening; and, in accordance with

resolution WHA59.6 (2006), if, by the time of the opening of the Seventy-first World

Health Assembly, Afghanistan is still in arrears in the payment of its rescheduled

assessment, its voting privileges shall be suspended automatically;

(2) that any suspension that takes effect as set out in paragraph (1) above shall

continue at the Seventy-second World Health Assembly and subsequent Health

Assemblies, until the arrears of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cameroon, El Salvador, Libya,

Niger, Niue, Suriname, and Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of) have been reduced to a

level below the amount that would justify invoking Article 7 of the Constitution;

(3) that this decision shall be without prejudice to the right of any Member to request

restoration of its voting privileges in accordance with Article 7 of the Constitution.
