1)
Comoros has been added to the
group as a preliminary assessment of its debt showed a potential
need for HIPC debt relief (see Comoros: External Debt Sustainability
Analysis, IDA/SecM2001-0461, July 6, 2001, and EBS/01/110/July 3,
2001).

Completion point countries.

Yemen reached a decision point
in June 2000. Its debt sustainability analysis indicated that the
country has a sustainable debt burden after the application of traditional
debt relief mechanisms (see SM/00/138 and IDA/SecM2000-359, June
28, 2000). The Paris Club provided a stock-of-debt operation on
Naples terms in July 2001.
