Recommendations to operationalize the Enhanced IF adopted
on May 1, 2007 – from transition to implementation:
At their meetings on 1 May 2007, the Integrated Framework Working
Group (IFWG) and the Integrated Framework Steering Committee (IFSC)-
the IF governing bodies- adopted a package of recommendations to
start the implementation phase of the enhanced Integrated Framework
(EIF). The package was the fruit of 19 months of intense work in
the Transition Team and its three clusters, which were set up to
operationalize the recommendations of the Task Force on an enhanced
IF (WT/IFSC/W/15). It may be recalled that Ministers at the WTO
Hong Kong Ministerial Conference in December 2005 were encouraged
by the endorsement by the Development Committee of the World Bank
and the IMF at its autumn 2005 meeting of an enhanced IF. At the
Hong Kong Conference, WTO Ministers welcomed the establishment of
a Task Force by the IFWG and IFSC as well as an agreement on the
three elements which together constitute an enhanced IF: (i) increased,
additional, predictable financial resources to implement Action
Matrices; (ii) strengthened in-country capacities to manage, implement
and monitor the IF process; and (iii) enhanced IF governance.
The package of recommendation (EIF Consolidated Documents)

May 2007 contains a compilation of working documents setting out
the terms of reference and procedures to access funding and of the
bodies that constitute the EIF. The recommendations also include,
inter alia, a road map outlining the next steps in order to ensure
smooth transition from the current IF its enhanced phase. Work is
ongoing to select the Trust Fund Manager for the new EIF Trust Fund,
recruitment of the Executive Director for the new EIF Secretariat
and on the replenishment of the Trust Fund.
