Having considered the comments and recommendations of the Project and Programme Review Committee, the Adaptation Fund Board decided to request the secretariat to prepare a paper that discussed:

(a) The lessons learned from the review process;

(b) Those areas where more specific guidelines could be developed for the submission of proposals;

(c) The maximum number of times that a proposal can or should be considered by the PPRC before being rejected, and 

(d) The option to adjust or conditionally approve a proposal contingent on the submission of additional clarification after its approval.
