25. Projected 2008 Debt Situation 21  Increase in new obligations compared to 2007 is primarily due to the deployment of troops in UNAMID offset by the reduction of the authorized military strength of UNMIL and low deployment rates in UNMEE. Payments for troops/FPUs and COE were broadly current up to February 2008 and December 2007 respectively for MINUSTAH, MONUC, UNAMID, UNDOF, UNIFIL, UNMEE, UNMIL, UNMIS and UNOCI. Payments for troops/FPUs and COE for MINURSO, UNFICYP, UNMIK, UNMIT and UNOMIG are behind the quarterly payment schedule.  Payment for COE/SS claims are contingent on timely finalization of MOUs and subsequent claims certification by DFS. As at the start of May 2008, out of 335 MOUs for all peacekeeping missions, 72 (21%) were yet to be finalized.

40. CONCLUSIONS 33 Financial situation in 2008 slightly better than in 2007. More Member States had paid in full for the regular budget by 7 May 2008 than by 16 May 2007. Unpaid assessed regular budget contributions were $72 million less on 7 May 2008 than a year earlier. The financial position of peacekeeping operations at 7 May 2008 shows some improvement. Contributions of over $2.8 billion were received, reducing the amount outstanding from $2.7 billion to $2.3 billion. Unpaid assessments for the tribunals as of 7 May 2008 amount to $147 million, reflecting an decrease as compared to the amount of $153 million unpaid as of 16 May 2007. Total payments received for the CMP as of 7 May 2008 amount to $870 million, with $150 million currently outstanding. The financial health of the Organization depends on Member States, including major contributors, meeting their financial obligations in full and on time.
