Centrally shared security costs

The Committee requested additional information regarding the total security costs of UNICEF for 2006 2007.

Additional support budget allocation for 2005 for increased security costs

For the sake of comparison between bienniums, the 2004 2005 approved appropriation shown in tables and annexes within this document has been adjusted to exclude those costs so as to be in alignment with the proposed 2006 2007 support budget.

A separate proposal is being presented for security cost increases resulting from United Nations policy documents and General Assembly resolutions.

In order to allow comparison at both the programme and objects of expenditure levels, the resource levels, as presented and approved in document IDB.27 3 PBC.19 3, have been used as the budget base for the resource requirements for 2006 2007.

This enables the Administrator to present the full costs related to mandated United Nations security requirements in a comprehensive and transparent manner.

It is proposed that these costs be reflected as United Nations mandated security costs rather than in a security reserve as was the case for 2004 2005.

Direct security costs are considered UNDP specific security costs that form an integral part of the biennial support budget.

The support budget is also expected to increase, in part to cover mandatory costs related to security compliance and emergency preparedness.

As mentioned in paragraph 11, an additional section was added in the resource plan for the financial requirements of the security costs mandated by the United Nations.

Costs associated with evacuations and Minimum Operational Residential Security Standards (MORSS) are also expected to increase significantly over previously budgeted levels.

The use of security assurances would also help to reduce security concerns.

The Last Wish

I will fulfill the wish.

The Group took note of the fact that the funds required for security obligations with regard to window replacement had been reduced to the incremental costs of the shatter resistant glass.

The cost increase was triggered by the various security improvement measures, approved by the General Assembly, for Vienna as a duty station.

In any case, the Advisory Committee now understands that even if the construction of the UNDC 5 building were possible, costs related to the security aspects would have been prohibitive.

While reducing such capabilities might seem like an expedient way to cut costs, European governments must not lose sight of their long term security priorities.

Those security costs, amounting to over 7 million per biennium under the current system, were projected to double under DSS.

Security that's terrible.

But the wish, Darby.

Give me me third wish.

In that context, the Group took note that the funds required for security obligations with regard to window replacement had been reduced to the incremental costs of the shatter resistant glass, and that other window replacement costs could be covered by available BMS funds.

The UNICEF share of the Malicious Act Insurance Policy and field security costs, which were previously budgeted under central costs for country and regional offices, are now shown as a separate appropriation line, under the heading of centrally shared security costs.
