Naz Undp Annual Project Report 2015

Background and Purpose of this Reporting Guide

All Implementing Partners (IPs) of UNDP supported programmes and projects that have been implemented in a particular year are required to submit Annual Reports for purposes of the Annual Programme Review (APR)held between October and December. These reports are then updated to capture changes that have taken place between the APR and the end of the year.

This document provides guidance to Implementing Partners (IPs) on how to prepare APR/ Annual Reports. These reports are required to show the extent of achievement of planned results (programme/project outputs and outcomes), and the contribution of these results to CPAP and National Development Plan results.

Annual reports also need to provide substantive information on progress made with regards to implementation of planned key activities whose completion was necessary for achieving planned output targets and milestones. Thus, the basis for measuring performance is the Annual Work plan agreed between the IP and UNDP. These reports are also expected todocument lessons learnt and best practices to inform follow up work plans and future programmes/projects.

Note: UNDP will periodically conduct Data Quality Assessments (DQAs) through quality assurance provided by Programme/Project Officers and during field visits on information that is reported by Implementing Partners.

The sections below provide guidance on what information needs to be provided and how it should be organised, with predetermined formats provided in some cases.

The Parliament of Zambia derives its authority from the Constitution of the Republic. Article 62 of the Zambian Constitution states that the legislative power of the Republic of Zambia is vested in Parliament, which consists of the President and the National Assembly. The National Assembly consists of one hundred and fifty (150) elected Members and not more than eight (8) nominated Members and the Speaker.

The functions of Parliament are to make laws, vote expenditure and approve taxation measures; represent the electorate and provide checks and balances over the Executive. In an effort to enhance its functions, the National Assembly has been receiving support from various Cooperating Partners that include the UNDP. The support from UNDP largely focuses of capacity strengthening for Members of Parliament and staff for the Institution to perform its oversight function effectively. The current partnership runs from 2011 to 2016. During the period under review, UNDP and NAZ signed an agreement based on an annual work plan, which was responsive to the UNDP Outcome 5.1: Individuals with increased knowledge and ability to claim human rights for effective participation in development and democratic processes by 2016. Further, the 2015 workplan was anchored on the 2015-2019 National Assembly Strategic Plan and contributed to the following strategic objectives:  Strategic Objective 4: Enhance the representative function of the National Assembly;  Strategic Objective 6: Strengthen support to the National Assembly for it to discharge its functions effectively; and  Strategic Objective 7: Improve administrative service delivery.

The following were the planned activities for 2015: a. National Assembly of Zambia i. Training of staff in Results Based Management and Reporting; ii. Development of results based Monitoring and Evaluation Framework and Implementation Plan; iii. Training in Human Resource Management for Legislatures; iv.

2. Background and Purpose of Programme/Project

The project is a component of the GRZ-UNDP 2011-2015 Governance Programme that supports the implementation of the Sixth National Development Plan. The project also contributes to the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) Outcome 5: Targeted Government institutions provide human rights-based policies, frameworks and

Page 4 of 16 Pages services by 2015. The project activities will also contribute to the Country Programme Action Plan (CPAP) outcome 5.1: individuals with increased knowledge and ability to claim human rights for effective participation in development and democratic processes by 2015.

The project further builds on achievements scored and lessons learnt during previous initiatives implemented by National Assembly through the Parliamentary Reform Programmes I, II, III that were supported by various cooperating partners including UNDP.

The purpose of the project is Enhancing Oversight Capacity of the National Assembly by improving its capacity for stakeholder engagements and public participation in appropriate Parliamentary processes.

The focus of the project is to enhance the reform agenda at the National Assembly through continued capacity enhancement of Members of Parliament and staff. In order to systematically build on the successes of the reform agenda, the project assisted the National Assembly to develop its 2015-2019 Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan is expected to be the basis of programming for the National Assembly for a period of five years. The project also aims at enhancing the participation of the public in the work of the National Assembly. In this vein, staff at Constituency level who had been trained in community mobilisation and are now taking a lead in mobilising the public to participate in Parliamentary activities such as Committee Public Hearings.

In addition, the project provided support the work of the Zambia Women Parliamentarians Caucus based on its 2014-2017 Strategic Plan. The project has assisted the Caucus to establish a functional Secretariat which is headed by a Programme Officer. This development has resulted into improved implementation of the Caucus activities and increased its visibility in gender work in Zambia.

The monitoring of the project is facilitated by both National Assembly and UNDP to ensure that there is a common understanding on measurement of the results of activities.

Page 12 of 16 Pages 4. Progress towards achievement of results

APR and Annual Reports: One of the major achievements during the period under review was the launch of the 2015-2019 National Assembly of Zambia Strategic Plan aimed at guiding the institution's programming for the next five years. In order to ensure effective implementation of the National Assembly of Zambia Strategic Plan, staff were trained in Results Based Management and Reporting and one of the key outputs of the training was the development of the Performance Management Framework for the Plan. Further, Senior Management staff were oriented on the role of leadership in implementation and monitoring of the Strategic Plan.

During the period under review, guidelines for community mobilisation for Committee public hearings were developed and orientation of Constituency Office staff commenced. Orientation of Constituency Office staff on the guidelines will be on-going and so far all new staff have been oriented. Further, the guidelines were applied by Constituency Offices based in Katete district during the public hearings for the Committee on Health, Community Development and Social Services.

The ZWPC Programme Officer was recruited and is currently working at the Secretariat. Draft policy, and systems and procedure documents were developed and validated. Further, the Caucus developed and strengthened collaborative partnerships with the Ministry of Gender and UNDP and participated in the HeForShe Campaign in Petauke, Nalolo and Choma districts.

5.0 Key Development Drivers and Cross Cutting themes

The 2015 work-plan was in line with 2015-2019 National Assembly Strategic Plan which is responsive to ,among other things, the Vision 2030, Revised Sixth National Development Plan and Parliamentary Reform Agenda. Cross cutting themes in the NAZ Strategic Plan include gender, HIV and AIDS as well as disability. In line with the UNDP Country Programme development drivers and cross cutting issues that were considered include governance, gender and capacity development. Therefore, the project contributes to the governance outcomes through the NAZ activities whose main focus is on increased oversight capacity of the Legislative wing of Government through capacity strengthening of Members of Parliament and staff. The project further focuses on systems development for the institution to better implement its Strategic Plan and provide effective support to the Members of Parliament. The project’s contribution towards the gender outcome is actualised through support to the Zambia Women Parliamentarians Caucus.

Page 13 of 16 Pages 6.0 Key Lessons learnt and Best Practices

Effective coordination with stakeholders both within and outside the institution leads to successful implementation of planned activities. Another lesson learnt was that Caucus activities were implemented more efficiently with the support of the National Assembly Gender Sub-Committee. Further, a fully functional secretariat was critical enabler for successful implementation of the Zambia Women Parliamentarians Caucus activities.

Key opportunities for the project include the Seventh National Development Plan which is being developed with active participation of the National Assembly of Zambia to ensure that the new plan is responsive to Legislature’s strategic direction. The New UNDP 2016-2021 Country Programme is another opportunity for the project as it provides an opportunity for the National Assembly to partner with the UNDP on interventions aimed at making the legislature more effective in its mandate of legislation, oversight, representation and budget oversight.

8.0 Conclusions and Recommendations

The roll-out of the 2015 NAZ/UNDP workplan was more successful compared to the 2014 implementation progress. This is attributed that the implementation of the 2015 work-plan was guided by the institution’s Strategic Plan, which necessitated improved coordination among various departments of the Institution. The 2016 work plan will be centred on consolidating results for 2012-2015 Programme as well as laying a foundation for the 2016- 2012 Programme.

It is recommended that in 2016, the interventions should integrate capacity strengthening of newly elected MPs after the 2016 Tripartite Elections as well as systems development to support the implementation of the Strategic Plan.

Page 15 of 16 Pages 9.0 Successes

Among the notable successes was capacity enhancement for staff which translated into the development of tools for the effective implementation and monitoring of the National Assembly of Zambia 2015-2019 Strategic Plan. Staff capacity strengthening focused on Strategic Planning and Implementation; Results Based Management and Reporting and Performance Management for Legislatures. The tools developed include the Implementation Plan and the Performance Management Framework for the Strategic Plan.
