 DIRECTOR-GENERAL'S CONSULTATIVE FRAMEWORK 
MECHANISM ON COTTON 
EVOLVING TABLE - 16TH VERSION1 
Revision 
 
 
 
   
 
Explanatory Notes 
 
1.  The attached Table is divided into four Parts, as follows:   
 Part I: Cotton Specific Development Assistance.  This is assistance directly related to the 
cotton sector. 
 Part II: Agriculture and Infrastructure-Rel ated Development Assistance.  This is 
assistance related to cotton when provided under more general agricultural or 
infrastructure support programmes. 
 Part III: Available/Accessible Resources.  This refers to assistance in the form of 
resources available from multilateral institutions through:  i) Budget support provided in 
the Extended Credit Facility and the Poverty Reduction Support Credits (PRSCs); and, ii) Debt relief in the form of the Heavily In debted Poor Countries Initiative (HIPC), 
Emergency Post-Conflict Assistance, Exogenous Shocks Facility and the Multilateral Debt 
Relief Initiative (MDRI).  
 Part III was established in accordance with the outcome from the March 2007 High-Level 
Session on Cotton
2.  The purpose is to show "available" resources as distinguished from 
"committed" resources (see endnote "a" on page 14 which describes the nature of these resources).  These could be deployed to any sector or activity on the basis of national development or poverty-reduction priorities.   
 Part IV: National Cotton Sector Focal Points.  This Part provides the coordinates for focal 
points established by assistance beneficiarie s for their engagement with the bilateral and 
multilateral development communities. 
                                               
1 This Evolving Table (ET) reflects a modified stru cture, based on the understanding with Members and

12th version, all the projects, programmes and activities  in the "completed" catego ry have been transferred 
"out" of the active operational table, and are now annexe d to this ET as Annexes 1, 2 and 3, with the title 
"Completed Activities".
