4 1. What is the JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework?

The Joint Assistance Strategy for Tanzania (JAST), in Kiswahili “Mkakati Wa Pamoja Wa Misaada Tanzania” (MPAMITA), is Tanzania’s national strategy for managing development co-operation between the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania (the Government) and its Development Partners (DPs) so as to achieve national development and poverty reduction goals. Whereas the JAST Document outlines main objectives, principles, commitments and broad arrangements for JAST implementation, the JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework specifies the concrete actions to be undertaken by the Government and DPs to put JAST into practice during its cycle of implementation (2006/07-2010/11). The JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework also list a range of monitoring indicators for assessing progress in achieving JAST commitments and objectives.

2. Structure of the JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework

The JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework is presented in the matrix in section 4. The matrix is structured as follows: a) The matrix is organised around the five JAST objectives, which are: i. Strengthening national ownership and Government leadership of the development process; ii. Aligning DP support to Government priorities, systems, structures and procedures; iii. Harmonising Government and DP processes; iv. Managing resources for achieving development results, in particular on MKUKUTA/ MKUZA; and v. Strengthening domestic and mutual accountability. b) Under each JAST objective, the matrix is arranged into JAST commitments (column 1), which capture general commitments or principles outlined in the JAST Document and are the reference point for both activities and monitoring indicators. As much as possible, commitments have been limited to those that matter in particular for aid effectiveness and constitute an additionality to the already existing commitments in MKUKUTA/ MKUZA, PER, core reforms and other processes. c) Columns 2 to 5 from “activities” to “means of verification/monitorable output” constitute the Action Plan part of the combined Action Plan and Monitoring Matrix. For each JAST commitment, relevant activities are identified for its realisation. To each activity, agencies that are responsible for implementation are assigned, whereby lead agencies are also indicated (M-Lead for agencies that take lead on mainland activities; Z-Lead for agencies that take lead on Zanzibar activities). The timeframe is also specified, i.e. the month and year by when the activity is expected to be completed. In addition, the column “means of verification/monitorable output” lists the output by which it can be verified that an activity has taken place.

5 d) The columns of the matrix that are particular to the monitoring framework are the “outcome indicators”, “indicator baseline” and “indicator target”, and the “indicator review process” (columns 6-9). The monitoring indicators are outcome-based and are linked to the JAST commitments. Some of them (in italics) are indicators from the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness 1, which Tanzania together with other countries reports on internationally through biennial surveys conducted by the OECD-DAC. Not all Paris indicators are included in the JAST monitoring framework, because related actions have either already been completed or are undertaken in other existing processes. Tanzania nevertheless reports on them to the OECD-DAC monitoring survey on the Paris Declaration every two years until 2010. Baseline values for the outcome indicators are set for 2005 and indicator targets for the end of the first term of JAST implementation in 2010/11. For Paris indicators, the baseline was taken from the 2006 survey using data from 2004/05; targets correspond for most indicators to the Paris equivalents, for some, they are set more ambitiously than the Paris targets to reflect the more progressive environment of Tanzania and the fact that for some indicators, Tanzania has already or almost reached Paris targets. Further details on the Paris indicators and targets, Tanzania’s progress against them, as well as their interpretation and measurement in the Tanzanian context can be found in annexes I, II and III respectively. The indicator review process shows which process is used to generate the necessary data or information for measuring the indicator and/or to review progress against the indicator.

3. JAST Monitoring and Evaluation Process

As stipulated in the JAST Document, the Government and DPs in consultation with non- state actors will review their performance in implementing the JAST on an annual basis, utilizing to the greatest extent possible the existing Government processes as the main avenues for dialogue, analysis and information generation. This will be guided by the joint Government-DP JAST Working Group. The findings from these processes will be consolidated in annual JAST progress reports, which are to be produced in November each year.

During the mid and final term of JAST implementation, the Government and DPs will jointly commission an Independent Monitoring Group (IMG) to undertake a comprehensive assessment of Government and DP performance in implementing the JAST. The IMG’s report will be discussed by the Government, DPs and non-state actors and the way forward agreed upon. The Government together with DPs will have a high level consultative meeting at mid- term (FY 2008/09) and at the end of the JAST cycle, which will be based on a more comprehensive mid-term and final review respectively as well as findings of the IMG Reports.

1 The Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness was agreed upon by donor agencies and developing countries at the Second High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in March 2006 in Paris. It consists of a range of partnership commitments around the principles of ownership, alignment, harmonisation, managing resources for results, and accountability. Progress in implementing these commitments is monitored through 10 Paris indicators with global targets for 2010.

6 4. Immediate actions for JAST implementation

Whereas the JAST Action Plan and Monitoring Framework is a comprehensive tool that spells out actions, monitoring indicators and targets for the implementation of JAST commitments, the following actions are identified as areas for immediate work:

1. Formulate and implement a TA policy 2. Strengthen MTEF projections and integrate all external resources in the Government budget and Exchequer system 3. Establish effective division of labour within Government and among DPs 4. Harmonise and rationalise Government and DP processes in line with national calendar of processes

26 Annex III: Methodology Note for Measuring JAST Indicators

STILL TO BE COMPLETED

27 i Paris indicator 3 measures whether aid flows are aligned on national priorities. The OECD (Paris Declaration) uses a proxy for this purpose - aid recorded in the national budget as a percentage of actual ODA disbursements to the Government, assuming that recording ODA in the national budget estimates is a first step towards ensuring alignment of aid with national priorities. ii JAST principles are: (1) supporting national, sector and local priorities, strategies, programmes and plans; (2) integration in national budget process; (3) integration in Government structures, systems, regulations and procedures; (4) following proper Government process for project/programme approval.
