A different viewpoint was that the grounds for expulsion should be limited to public order and national security, at least with a view to progressive development.

The new programme orientations have been defined, widely shared with and accepted by partners and firmly entrenched within the operations of the Office; new quality projects are being developed and funded, with some already in the implementation stage, and the former portfolio of projects will be totally phased out in 2009; the challenge of aligning administrative and financial procedures, adapting corresponding tools and achieving an effective control environment has been addressed with major steps already completed and others well engaged; personnel have received necessary training in many essential aspects, developed an institutional understanding and are able and motivated; linkages and proper working procedures with programme sectors and central services at Headquarters have been re-established and consolidated; networking with other field offices in the region, and even beyond, is taking place; and UBO is well integrated within the UNCT.

It is recognized that the increasing interdependence of national economies in a globalizing world and the emergence of rules-based regimes for international economic relations have meant that the space for national economic policy, that is, the scope for domestic policies, especially in the areas of trade, investment and international development, is now often framed by international disciplines, commitments and global market considerations.

Further to my report pursuant to paragraph 5 of Security Council resolution 1859 (2008) (S/2009/385), once all outstanding activities under the oil-for-food programme are concluded, and taking into account (a) any necessary residual activities, (b) any indemnities that may be provided by the Government of Iraq and (c) the need to ensure the availability of sufficient funds for the Organization to meet the costs and expenses that (i) have been incurred, (ii) are associated with the winding down of the oil-for-food programme and/or (iii) arise from the cooperation of the United Nations with Member States in respect of investigations and proceedings related to the programme, all other remaining funds should be transferred from the Iraq escrow account to the Development Fund for Iraq.
