International transport levy common share
Assess coordinated international transport levies as a possible source for the global common pool rather than automatic country revenue.
Possible source for the global common pool. It is not automatically assigned to any single country budget.
When it can be counted
- A credible legal and administrative basis must exist to collect, save or transfer the resources concerned.
- Usable capacity must be estimated separately from a theoretical or planning ceiling.
- Administrative costs, distributional effects, incentives and avoidance risks must be considered before crediting resources to material-security financing.
What it does not prove
- It is a possible common-pool source, not national revenue assigned in the static engine.
- Adoption, base, collection, incidence and allocation require separate verification.
They are not resources already available or funding already secured.
These families remain instruments to parameterize with context-specific data and rules. No entry is treated as an available resource merely because it appears in the catalogue; global quantitative feasibility remains to be demonstrated.
