35. 行预咨委会询问后得到了表 3 详细列示的 5 387 900 美元应急拨备的补充资料，并获悉，自项目开始以来，成本上涨拨备和应急拨备的计算方法没有改变。行预咨委会还获悉，自向大会第七十四届会议提交报告以来，成本上涨拨备采用建筑费用 7%的比率计算，每年进行复利计算，而应急拨备则采用建筑费用、专业服务费和成本上涨 10%的比率计算。成本上涨拨备和应急拨备项下的任何未支出金额都将结转至下一年。行预咨委会相信，在大会审议本报告时，将向大会提供关于应急资金使用情况的最新信息。
35. Upon enquiry, the Advisory Committee was provided with additional information regarding the contingency provision in the amount of $5,387,900, as detailed in table 3, and was informed that, since the onset of the project, the calculation methodology for the escalation and contingency provisions had remained unchanged. The Committee was also informed that the escalation had been calculated since the report submitted at the seventy-fourth session of the General Assembly by applying a rate of 7 per cent over the construction costs, compounded yearly, and that contingency was calculated by applying a rate of 10 per cent over the construction costs, professional services fees and escalation costs. Any unspent amounts under both escalation and contingency are carried over to the next year. The Advisory Committee trusts that updated information on the use of contingency funding will be provided to the General Assembly at the time of its consideration of the present report.
