Abstract

During the recent years two new forms of technical assistance schemes have been added to the existing assistance programmes of the United Nations and its specialized agencies. These new programmes are:

  1. (1)

    An International Administrative Service: Provision of operational, executive and administrative personnel, which is now known as “OPEX”; and

  2. (2)

    Technical assistance on a reimbursable or payment basis. Both of them present novel features and deserve study.
