1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Annual report assesses progress made towards attaining the targets set out in the 2015 Action Plan of the Assin North Municipal Assembly through evidence-based information on budgetary performance and selected Municipal Core Performance Indicators. This report therefore compiles achievement levels of the assessment of a set of indicators and targets adopted for monitoring and evaluation.

1.2 STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF D-MTDP As at the time this report is being compiled, the final draft of the 2014-2017 Medium Term Development of the Municipality has been completed and submitted to the National Development Planning Commission. The Assembly however awaits the comments from the commission for a final plan to be submitted.

So far from 2014 to 2015 the Assembly has been able to spend resources on over 70% percent of projects earmarked for implementation in the 2014 and 2015 Planning years.

The table below shows that as at the end of 31st December of 2015, cumulatively over the quarters, 77.9% of projects and programmes comprising 26 (25%) implemented and 55 (52.9%) ongoing had seen some investment from the Assembly while 23 (22.1%) are yet to be implemented.

By achieving 77.9% for ongoing and completed projects, the Assembly fell slightly short of the 80% target set for total financial investments on projects for 2015.

Details of the analysis are shown in Appendix 1 of this report.

Based on the data collected, a draft report was prepared and validated at a Municipal Planning Coordinating Unit (MPCU)

5 | P a g e meeting to collect further inputs. After the validation meeting, the annual report was prepared.

1.3.2 DIFFICULTIES ENCOUNTERED Logistical challenges in inspecting projects was a key issue but it was overcome by sometimes borrowing vehicles from other Departments.

II. GHANA SCHOOL FEEDING PROGRAMME (GSFP)

The Ghana School Feeding Programme is an initiative of the comprehensive Africa Agricultural Development Goals (MDGS) on hunger, poverty and Malnutrition. The basic concept of the programme is to provide children in public primary schools and kindergartens with one hot, nutritious meal, prepared from locally grown foods stuffs every school going day with the ultimate objective of contributing to the reduction of short-term hunger and malnutrition, improving enrolment, attendance, performance and retention in schools among others. In the long term, the GSFP seeks to contribute to poverty reduction and food security in Ghana.

The programme is being implemented by Ghana School Feeding Programme Secretariat with the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development exerting oversight responsibility. As at the end of 2015, no additional schools had been added to the existing 13 schools benefiting from the GSFP with additional total enrolment of 667 still remaining constant in 2015 as at the end of 31st December.

There has however been a change of GH₵0.5.00 per pupil to GH₵0.8.00 per pupil as the allocation for the programme to reflect national policy.

Challenges

‹ High cost of foodstuffs ‹ Erratic inflow of funds from GSF Secretariat ‹ Difference in an enrolment figures –schools/GES/GSF Secretariat ‹ Inadequate cost of feeding Recommendation ‹ Cost of feeding should be increase from 50pesewas to GH¢1.00 ‹ There should be consistence in enrolment figures ‹ There should regular release of funds from GSF Secretariat

2.5 EVALUATION AND PARTICIPATORY M&E

The Municipal Monitoring team with gender representation and Community involvement ensured effective monitoring processes at all levels such as plan preparation and community action plans which are collated and harmonized in the preparation of the Municipal

13 | P a g e

Composite Plans and Budgets. The decentralized departments are made to submit their Action Plans to be captured in the Composite Plan and stakeholder meeting are organised to harmonize the plans. 2.6 THE WAY FORWARD

I. KEY ISSUES ADDRESSED AND THOSE YET TO BE ADDRESSED

The staffing situation in the departments of the Assembly is improving gradually. There are some departments that are still being manned by one person who hardly received any refresher training and these departments lack virtually everything including budget and logistics to support their work.

II. RECOMMENDATIONS

Some capacity improvement programmes should be provided for the staff in the Municipal Assembly within the short term. This calls for timely release of funds, proper monitoring and evaluation to ensure quality delivery.

Donor intervention to assist in the fulfilment of the Assembly’s vision should be further explored.

2.7 CONCLUSION

The review of the performance of the 2015 Action Plan for the Municipality shows that as at the end of 31st December 2015, 77.9% of projects and programmes comprising 26 (25%) implemented and 55 (52.9%) ongoing had seen some investment from the Assembly while 23 (22.1%) are yet to be implemented. By achieving 77.9% for ongoing and completed projects, the Assembly fell slightly short of the 80% target set for total financial investments on projects for 2015.

Logistical challenges in inspecting projects was a key issue during the year but it was overcome by sometimes borrowing vehicles from other Departments. It is expected that subsequent quarters would see the Planning Unit being allocated a vehicle for monitoring and evaluation of projects.
