The General Assembly, by its resolution 53\/226 of 8 June 1999, appropriated an amount of $35,351,308 gross ($34,618,408 net) for the same period. <\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t<\/span>Expenditures for the period totalled $35,026,400 gross ($34,320,700 net), resulting in an unencumbered balance of $324,900 gross ($297,700 net).<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t<\/span>The unencumbered balance resulted mainly from a lower actual troop strength than authorized, more favourable rates obtained for the hiring of aircraft used for the rotation of military personnel, civilian vacancies, deferment of a construction project and favourable unit cost rates obtained for the purchase of vehicles under the systems contract. The unencumbered balance was partially offset by the additional requirements arising from payments made to settle troop-contributing Governments&#8217; claims for injury, disability or illness of their contingent members resulting from service with UNDOF during past financial periods. <\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New

In this connection, it is noted that the total amount paid during the period for death and disability claims was $1,202,000, and is all related to backlog claims (see sect. II, paras. 6 and 7 above). The additional requirements for this purpose were financed through redeployment of resources from other expenditure headings ($273,300 from military contingents; $80,800 from civilian personnel; $252,000 from premises\/accommodation; $95,000 from transport operations; $153,000 from other equipment; and $47,900 from air and surface freight).<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><strong><span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t\t<\/span>Civilian personnel<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><i><span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t\t<\/span>Apportionment: $5,010,300; expenditure: $4,929,500; variance: $80,800<\/i><\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">4.<span class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space:pre; font-size:smaller\">\t<\/span>The unencumbered balance under this heading was largely due to an overall vacancy rate of 20 per cent experienced for international staff (full incumbency had been assumed in the budget). This saving was offset in part by unbudgeted requirements under (a) local staff salaries as result of a retroactive payment made for the upgrading of local posts in 1996; and (b) additional travel of mission staff to the United Nations Logistics Base and to Cyprus for computer courses and management skills training.
