The Evros Development Project was the thirteenth loan to Greece by the Bank and the fourth in the agricultural sector--the other three were for irrigation development. Greece graduated from Bank borrowing in 1979. Objectives 2. The Evros Development Project, which is located in the north-east corner of the country, was the first occasion that the Bank had funded a regional development project in Greece. The project, which was multisectoral, was designed to complement and coordinate Government's on-going development in the region and provide a model for integrated development which could be replicated elsewhere in the country. The project was broadly focused on improving the quality of life, raising incomes of beneficiaries to reduce regional income disparities, and upgrading the institutional framework. Project components included financing the expansion of a sugar beet factory, irrigation, flood control, roads, support for extension and research, forest exploitation and reforestation, technical schools and social infrastructure. linplementation Experience 3. The project, estimated to cost about US81.0 million was appraised in March 1977, and the Bank loan for US35.0 million signed on June 27, 1977 became effective on October 19, 1978--the delays being caused by a change in Government, which occurred in late 1977, resulting in delays in ratification of the Loan Agreement. Despite these early delays and the effect of inflation and fall in the value of the drachma (Drs) relative to the US dollar, the project has successfully achieved its objectives. The project closing date was extended four times to December 31, 1984. Although the loan account was left open until June 30, 1985, US$3.8 million of the Loan had to be cancelled. Most sub component objectives had, however, been either attained or exceeded by then. Internal inflation substantially exceeded appraisal expectations and as a result total project costs were Drs 6,091 million as against appraisal expectations of Drs 2,960 million--i.e., an increase of 106%, exacerbated by delays in executing the flood protection works, the largest project component. However, on account of the drachma falling against the dollar over tue life of the project, total costs in dollar terms were 122 less than appraisal expectations. (iv) Results 4. The economicrate of returnof all the directlyproductive components is 18% comparedto an appraisalestimate of 16%; inclusiveof social infrastructurecomponents and all other projectcosts, the rate of return is 131 comparedto the appraisalestimate of 121. The floodprotection and irrigationcomponent shows a rate of returnof only 3% as against 14X estimatedat appraisal.

In September 2007 the New Democracy Party won a slim majority of seats in the unicameral Vouli (parliament) in free and fair elections, and Konstantinos Karamanlis remained the prime minister. Civilian authorities generally maintained effective control of the security forces. The government generally respected the human rights of its citizens; however, there were problems in several areas. Human rights abuses reported during the year included: reports of abuse by security forces, particularly of undocumented immigrants and Roma; overcrowding and harsh conditions in some prisons; detention of undocumented migrants in squalid conditions; some legal restrictions on freedom of speech (although not enforced in practice); restrictions and administrative obstacles faced by members of non-Orthodox religions, including serious delays in receiving permits; detention and deportation of unaccompanied or separated immigrant minors, including asylum seekers; failure to provide adequate protection to victims of domestic violence; discrimination against Romani children in education; exploitation of Romani children through begging and forced labor; trafficking in persons; limits on the ability of ethnic minority groups to self-identify; and discrimination against and social exclusion of ethnic minorities, particularly Roma. A large number of Roma lacked access to adequate housing, basic medical care, public services, and employment opportunities.
