 I.   Introduction<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
\n

1.   The budget for the maintenance of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) for the period from 1 July 2002 to 30 June 2003 was set out in the report of the Secretary-General of 1 April 2002 (A\/56\/893) and amounted to US$ 112,376,000 gross ($108,401,200 net) inclusive of voluntary contributions of $333,500. It provided for 3,513 military contingents, 144 international staff and 339 national staff. On the basis of the recommendation of the Advisory Committee on Administrative and Budgetary Questions contained in paragraph 15 of its report of 5 April 2002 (A\/56\/887\/Add.7), the General Assembly, by its resolution 56\/214 B of 27 June 2002, appropriated an amount of $112,042,500 gross ($108,401,200 net) for the maintenance of the Force for the period from 1 July 2002 to 30 June 2003. The total amount appropriated has been assessed on Member States.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

  II.  Mandate performance<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

2.   The mandate of the Force was established by the Security Council in its resolutions 425 (1978) and 426 (1978). The mandate for the performance period was provided by the Council in its resolutions 1391 (2002), 1428 (2002) and 1461 (2003).<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

3.   The Force is mandated to help the Security Council achieve an overall objective, namely, to maintain international peace and security.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

4.   Within this overall objective, UNIFIL, during the performance report period, has contributed to a number of expected accomplishments by delivering related key outputs, shown in the frameworks below. These frameworks are grouped by components: operations and support. The components reflect, rather than determine, the common programmatic nature of the expected accomplishments and outputs contained therein.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

5.   The frameworks represent a shift towards a results-based budgeting approach. The 2002\/03 budget did not include standard frameworks for planned results, which would have been the baseline against which performance would be measured and reported. Therefore, the Force’s mandate performance is presented in a transitional format showing the actual indicators of achievement and actual outputs during the 2002\/03 period for which information was available. The expected accomplishments would lead to the fulfilment of the Security Council’s objective within the time frame of the mission and the actual indicators of achievement show a measurement of progress towards such accomplishments during the performance period. The actual outputs represent the contributions made by the mission towards the expected accomplishments during the performance period.<\/p><\/div>\n

Actual average troop strength for the period under review was 2,457, and repatriation based on 4,923 military personnel at $753 per person per rotation.<\/p><\/div>\n
