  11. 2006 Survey findings • Policy and enabling environment: key determining factor • Summary of results based on three themes: • Predictability • Accountability • Cost effectiveness

  12. Predictability of aid Aid is predictable when donors actually disburse: What was previously agreed… …when it was agreed. Countries cannot make full use of aid when it is unpredictable. Predictable aid contributes to achieving development results.

  13. Was aid predictable in 2005? 41% of aid was disbursed on schedule in 2005 $ 1 420 m $ 1 262 m $ 1 061 m $ 998 m $ 930 m $ 696 m AID SCHEDULED AID RECEIVED AFGHANISTAN EGYPT ZAMBIA

  14. Accountability of aid Aid is accountable when it is: Connected to country policies & policy processes. Subject to normal democratic scrutiny. Scrutiny mechanisms are often weak: Parliamentary scrutiny of budgets. Supreme Audit Institutions. Large chunks of aid are not recorded in budgets.

  15. Was aid accountable in 2005? 42% of aid was recorded in countries’ budgets $ 998 m $ 885 m $ 696 m GOV.BUDGET ESTIMATES $ 628 m $ 581 m $ 361 m AID DISBURSED EGYPT BOLIVIA ZAMBIA

  16. Cost-effectiveness of aid The benefits of aid need to outweigh the cost of delivering it. Transaction costs are high…and increasing. Scaling-up of aid More donors. New business model is expensive.

  17. Is aid cost effective? Vietnam (791) Cambodia(568) Honduras (521) Mongolia (479) Uganda (456) 10 453 missions in 34 countries in 2005 800 750 700 650 600 550 450 Number of donor missions in 2005

  32. Three key definitions for the survey

  33. Recording aid What is recorded? ODA Aid provided by official donors Aid for development & concessional (loans). Aid disbursed at country level. What is not recorded? Private flows (CSOs, Gates foundation) Debt cancellation & rescheduling. Humanitarian assistance. Regional programmes.

  34. Aid for the government sector Definition: Aid disbursed in the context of an agreement with administrations (ministries, departments, agencies or municipalities)… ….authorised to receive revenue or undertake expenditures on behalf of central government. Can aid provided by a donor to an NGO/Private Company count as aid for the government sector? Yes… as long as the NGO/Private company is implemeting a development programme on behalf of government.

  35. Delegated cooperation Example: Japangives $ 1 million to Unicef for a development programme in Vietnam. Whocompletes the questionnaire? Japan or Unicef? Unicefshouldcomplete the questionnaire (not Japan). Why? Survey measures effective aiddelivery. Not ‘efforts’ made by donors.
