Assembly/AU/Dec.284(XIV) Page 2 7. COMMENDS AfDB and the World Bank for front loading ADF 11 and IDA 15, respectively, and developing new facilities to support African countries, particularly the low income countries, to cope with the crisis; 8. SUPPORTS the acceleration of ADF 12 and IDA 16 replenishments, in view of the fact that both AfDB and the World Bank have front loaded ADF 11 and IDA 15 respectively; 9. NOTES with concern that the crisis has increased the demand for African Development Bank and World Bank resources and that these banks may soon have inadequate resources to support low income countries to mitigate the impact of the present crisis and resume growth; 10. RECALLING the necessity for African countries to attain the MDGs by target date of 2015, CALLS for strong and timely replenishment of ADF 12 and IDA 16, and early general capital increases for the two institutions to, among others, provide support for the low income countries; and 11. REQUESTS the Commission, in collaboration with the AfDB and UNECA, to continue monitoring the impact of the crisis on African countries, as well as the implementation of the G20 Summit Commitments.
