  10. NPoA versus NDP General observation • Process of developing APRM CSAR was participatory and consultative like the NDP formulation process. • APRM Country Review report 2009 was one of the key source document at sectoral level and national level • The identified actions were preliminary linked to their respective sectors. Implementation will take place at sectoral and LG level • These actions were integrated and incorporated. In some cases they formed objectives, in other areas they were part of strategies and in some areas they were specific interventions • In some cases they provided “symptomic” areas of further investigation • There are many repetitions in action points.

  17. Linkage of NDP / NPoA to implementation • NDP is the sole Government strategic framework for next 5 years • The NDP provided MTEF • The NDP provided sectoral interventions and cost estimates from which the Sectors will derive annual budgets • NDP provided an implementation strategy clearly spelling out some responsibilities of key government institutions NPA

  18. Monitoring and Evaluation • NDP has an M&E strategy. Currently M&E framework is being prepared. It will ensure indicators of NPoA are captured NPA

  19. Challenges • The format or orientation of government sector and APRM country review report are different • There were budget limitation and therefore some action points will not immediately commence like Land fund • Before addressing some constraints identified in NDP some of the actions can not be implemented. The slow process of legislation is one major challenge NPA

  20. Conclusion • Most of the Action points were captured in the NDP 2010/11-2014/15. • The monitoring of NPoA will be easier since the issues are captured in NDP which will also be monitored • The NPoA will be implemented through government institutions since the NDP is the sole government strategic document. • For easy integration, thematic grouping should as much as possible follow government laid down groupings NPA
