other measures such as emission charges and fees, deposit refund systems and tradeable permits and fiscal incentives. Such actions would make prices, particularly those related to energy, reflect environmental costs and benefits more fully, and thus send market signals and provide incentives. They would modify production and consumption patterns and encourage use of environmentally sound and energy efficient technologies. (d) To work towards a co-ordinated ap~roach to the use of economic instruments which would be facilitated by guidelines and studies by international organizations, particularly the 0ECD, ECE and EC. In this context, we welcome the OECD's work on preparing principles and internationa1 guidelines which will be presented to its meeting of Environment Ministers in 1991. (e) To support, in addition to present development assistance, programmes to increase the flow of capital and environmentally sound technology to developing and East European countries to assist the efforts by the receiving countries on high priority resource and environmental management projects and to meet their international obligations to protect the global environment. In particular it will be necessary to identify new ways and means of providing such resources to developing countries. We welcome the decision of the Development Committee of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund on 8 May 1990, which urges the Bank, in close collaboration with tw.EP and UNDP and other interested parties, to proceed expeditiously with the development of proposals for a pilot global environmental mechanism. (f) To urge donors and multilatera l agencies to take into account the relationship between debt service burdens a.nd the ability of countries both within I••• A/CONF.151/PC/10 English Page 21 and outside the ECE to carry out measures to ensure the protection of the environment. We will also urge bilateral and multilateral partners and financial institutions to take full account of environmental considerations and opportunities
