The new ‘independent’status of CCOP was already having a modest impact on discussion of potential collaborative programmes between CCOP and some of its Cooperating Countries as aid from the latter, with the exception of Japan, would no longer be channelled through ESCAP. Responsibility for Norway’s technical assistance to CCOP for example now passed to the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation. Fortunately, Norway’s continuing commitment to CCOP was signalled by an agreement being prepared to support work in the area of basin studies and data technology together with activities related to offshore safety and the environment, with finance amounting to the order of $1m over a three-year period. This agreement was signed in 1989 and though support for CCOP’s programme activities seemed assured for the time being, CCOP in its capacity as a management and coordinating unit would increasingly have to stand on its own two feet. The Chairman of the Steering Committee, Celso Roque, at the Annual Session of 1989, was prompted to pose the somewhat rhetorical question, ”Should self-sufficiency in finance and expertise be an important goal for CCOP considering the much reduced support from UNDP in the coming years?” Figure 11.
