3rd Meeting of the IHO Council IHO ANNUAL WORK PROGRAMME AND BUDGET Agenda Item 5.4 IHO Work Programme and Budget 2021 – 2023 (Proposal to be submitted to A-2) C-3, Monaco, 21 – 24 October 2019

Proposed IHO Work Programme for 2021 - 2023 The proposed 3-year Work Programme is based on the IHO Strategic Plan in place. In consideration of the ongoing revision of the IHO Strategic Plan, additional references to the draft version of the proposed revised IHO Strategic Plan are added in a separate column (SD REV). Final reference can only be made after the anticipated approval of the reviewed Strategic Plan by A2. It should be noted that the layout of the new Strategic Plan focuses on priorities whereas the Work Programme lists the whole range of IHO activities. It is the view of the Secretariat that the current Work Programme structure should remain under the revised Strategic Plan. C-3, Monaco, 21 – 24 October 2019

Proposed IHO BUDGET for 2021 - 2023 The proposed budget estimates for the 3-year Budget are based on the proposed annual budget estimates for 2020. The proposal considers known factors like expected variations in staff salaries and expected income through interests from IHO bank account. No further increase in income through expanding membership or raises in contribution share value was anticipated for the purpose of these estimates. C-3, IHO Secretariat, Monaco, 15 – 17 October 2019
