CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This report covers the period from 1st January to 31st December 2016. It reviews the state of the implementation of policies, programmes, and projects outlined in the Dormaa East District Assembly’s Medium-Term Development Plan (DMTDP). The report has been compiled from an assessment of the status of indicators and targets which have been adopted for monitoring and evaluating the achievements and impacts of key policy and programme interventions undertaken during the year under review. 1.1 Key M & E Objectives for the Year

The rationale for the preparation of this report is to provide information on the progress being made by the Assembly in the implementation of 2016 Annual Action Plan extracted from the District Medium Term Development Plan prepared under the GSGDA 2014 – 2017. The report among others aims to accomplish the following objectives:

∑ Provide records of events on the status of the 2016 Annual Action Plan for the year under review ∑ Monitor progress towards the attainment of key policy targets. ∑ Identify challenges or bottlenecks that are likely to hinder the achievement of the development goals and objectives outlined in the 2016 Annual Action Plan. ∑ To make recommendations for addressing any shortcomings/bottlenecks that may be identified during the assessment of the performances

1.2 Processes Involved and Difficulties Encountered

The APR-2016 was prepared by the District Planning Coordinating Unit (DPCU) with inputs from various Departments, from stakeholders and other partners. Monitoring and evaluation data were compiled from both secondary and primary sources to assess the impact of projects and programmes delivery on the target groups. Secondary data was compiled from the various

quarterly and annual reports of the District Assembly and its sub- structures whilst Primary data was obtained through designed questionnaires and interviews. Data collected focused on the core NDPC and specific District indicators and targets identified in the M& E plan. All data collected from both primary and secondary sources were reviewed by the DPCU and sent back to key stakeholders for validation. Data was collated, analysed and interpreted by the DPCU in line with the MTDP guidelines. The draft APR was prepared and reviewed by the DPCU. A one-day stakeholder’s workshop was held at the District Assembly in Wamfie to validate the draft APR. Comments and suggestions emanating from the workshop were incorporated in the final report. During the preparation of the report, a number of challenges were encountered particularly in the collection of data. These were; a. Inadequate logistical and financial support for effective and continuous M&E activities. b. Inadequate capacity in M&E at MDAs and sub-structure levels. c. Differences in M&E calendar and reporting formats. d. Inadequacy of updated data on socio-economic indicators. e. Unavailability of established baselines and targets especially on many of the new indicators selected to track progress.

Even though the M & E report format was adopted and sent to Sector Departments for reporting, there is the need to synchronize the reporting periods, establish M & E units within MDA’s and building the capacities of M & E focal persons for effective delivery

2.0 STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF 2016 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN

The MTDP (2014-2017) was developed to provide a framework to accelerate development in the District. To facilitate and track the progress of its implementation, key objectives were translated into annual action plans with corresponding budgets. A result-based M&E system for GSGDA was also prepared to facilitate the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information on performance outcomes as a yardstick to demonstrate empirically that the desired results are being achieved.

A review of the implementation of the MTDP indicates that for the year under review thirty four (34) out of forty two projects/programmes planned for the year were implemented. The projects are at various stages and cut across different sectors under the various thematic areas. 2.1 Human Development Productivity and Employment The success of every nation depends on the ability of its human resource to mobilize other resources to advance their well-being. To this end, it is prudent to develop the capacities of the human resource in the District so as to enhance their abilities to take advantage of existing opportunities to secure their wellbeing. The thematic area, Human Development Productivity and Employment focused on the provision of efficient infrastructure and quality services in education, health, housing, and water and sanitation among others. Human Development Productivity and Employment thematic area centered on the provision of efficient infrastructure and quality services in Education, Health, Housing, Water and Sanitation among others. Consequently, the Programmes/Projects and Activities under this thematic area were formulated to construct new facilities and rehabilitate existing ones as well as train and develop Human Resource potentials to contribute effectively in sustainable development. Since Human Development, Productivity and Employment is critical to every Nation’s Development agenda, the area was given much attention to the extent that it took a chunk of Programmes, Projects and Activities for 2016 period. A total of Ten (10) representing 29% of the Programmes/Projects were implemented under this thematic area

Table: 1 Types of Projects NO SECTOR NUMBER OF PROJECT PERCENTAGE (%) 1. Education 10 29 2 Water & Sanitation 9 26.5 3 Administration 5 15 4 Health 4 12 6 Economic 6 17.6 Total 34 100

2.2 Transparent and Accountable Governance Transparent and Accountable Governance thematic area is aimed at ensuring efficient Decentralization, Prudent Administrative structures for District and Sub-District levels

Management, Accountability, Participation of Citizenry and Security among others. Five (5) programmes/projects were also implemented under this thematic area representing 15% as shown in the table above

2.3 Enhancing Competitiveness in Ghana’s Private Sector The Private Sector is referred to as the engine of growth of every Nation since it employs majority of the labour force. This thematic area dealt with activities aimed at providing the enabling Environment for the Private Sector to take off. It thus centered on measures of boosting households’ incomes, domestic savings, spatial accessibility, jobs creation, Agricultural productivity, and many more. The District as a result embarked on the construction and Rehabilitation of market stores and sheds expansion of telecommunication network, training and providing support to individual and groups to improve on their lots and that of others were some of the steps adopted to enhance private sector growth. However some projects could not be carried out due to unavailability of corresponding budgetary constraints for the implementation of development projects and programmes.

2.4 Ensuring and Sustaining Macroeconomic Stability ∑ Finance and Administration Sub-committee quarterly meetings were held to track expenditure and make recommendations to management. ∑ 4no. quarterly Budget Committee meetings were held to review expenditure and budgets of the Assembly. ∑ 35 revenue staff trained in revenue mobilisation

2.5 Infrastructure, Energy and Human Settlement Development ∑ Construction of 10 No. open market stall at wamanafo ∑ 10. N0.

CHAPTER TWO MONITORING AND EVALUATION ACTIVITIES REPORT 2.0 INTRODUCTION Chapter two of this report gives a concise view on the status of programmes/projects carried out in the year 2016 taking into consideration sources of funding for these programmes/projects and how the funds were disbursed. It also gives a snapshot on how critical development and poverty issues were handled for the period in the District to enhance the living condition of the people especially the poor.

2.0.1 Programmes/Projects Status for the Year 2016 The list of development projects/programmes as at December, 2016 is presented in Annex A. The project list is made up of 34 sub projects under the various funding sources. Out of this 28 of the projects have been duly completed and are in use. The remaining 6 are at various stages of completion or ongoing. The project list has been updated to reflect the current status of development projects implemented.

The sources of funding for these projects included District Assembly Common Fund (DACF), GETFUND, District Development Fund (DDF) and AFD. This has significantly reduced the number of schools operating under trees and expanded access to health facilities in the District. The sanitation and water situation have also been improved through the collaboration between Assembly and CWSA. This has increased access to safe drinking water in the District as well as improved the waste management situation especially in the central business area of Wamfie

2.02 Contract Sum and Payment

The contract sum of the Twenty (34) Development projects in the District amount to Two Million, Nine Hundred and Fifty Nine Thousand, One Hundred & Forty Six Ghana Cedi Ninety Three Pesewas. (2,959,146.93)

Out of this amount, Two million, Six Hundred and Seventeen Thousand, Five Hundred & Seventy Two Ghana Cedis Twenty Seven Pesewas (2,617,572.27) representing 84.% has been disbursed to contractors with an outstanding balance of Seven Hundred and Four Hundred Eleven Thousand, Seven Hundred and Seventy Seventy Seven Ghana Cedis and Seventy Eight

Five Pesewas (411,777.78) representing 14%. The outstanding balance (14%) includes retention, uncompleted projects and funds yet to be disbursed to the Assembly

3.1 Update on Disbursement and Funding Sources During the year under review, the assembly’s programmes and projects were financed from various sources. Table 3 below provides updates on the sources of funds from 2011 to 2016.

3.2 District Assembly Common Fund (DACF) The expected income for the year was (GH¢2,957,922.00) and instead, an amount of GH¢ 1,688,277.43 representing 57% was received. This decreased the budget by GH¢1, 269,644 .00 There were some deductions made at source resulting in the inability of the assembly to fulfill its entire development budget for the year.

3.3 Internally Generated Fund (IGF) The IGF estimated for the year was GH¢221,200.00 while the actual receipt stood at GH¢ 191,788.49 which is GH¢ 87% above the targets. This was as a result of several measures introduced to improve revenue mobilization. The Assembly is vigorously working on policies and programmes to improve this sector.

4.0 UPDATE ON INDICATORS AND TARGETS To ensure that the stated goals and objectives of the MTDP were achieved, indicators and targets were set for measuring progress made towards achievement. These indicators and targets were set through a collaborative process to ensure that, they were achievable and related to the MTDP. The core indicators adopted for monitoring were those defined by NDPC in collaboration with RPCU, MMDA’S based on the GSGDA. Annex B indicates progress made towards the achievement of the core indicators in the District.

4.1 Update on Critical Development and Poverty Issues 2.5.1 Ghana School feeding programme Dormaa East is a beneficiary of the School Feeding Programme with a total of 7,950 pupils from 23 public schools being fed every day at a cost of 0.80gps per child. From January to December, 2016, total amount of GHȼ 344,254.26 was received and disbursed accordingly. The implementation of the programme has to a greater extent shot-up school enrolment level in the beneficiary schools and also reduced absenteeism among pupils in the District.

4.2 National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP) The National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP) came into being with the aim of generating half a million jobs in three years (2006-2009). To achieve the target, the government made provision from the DACF, GETFUND, NHIS, ROAD FUND, HIPC and a percentage from 2007 estimates of MDAs to support the Implementation of the Programme. The programme is currently going through re-structuring in order to make it efficient and effective and as a means of creating employment for the Ghanaian youth. Currently NYEP has introduced new modules which are very positive for the District since the move is likely to reduce the unemployment rate in the District. Delays in the release of allowances and poor supervision are some of the challenges that need to be addressed under the National Youth Employment Programme as part of the re-structuring process. The table below shows the employment modules under the programme and the actual number of youth who have been employed in the previous year.

4.3 Capitation Grant In the quest of the Government of Ghana to implement the Free Compulsory Universal Basic Education (FCUBE), Capitation Grant was introduced in public basic schools to support pupils. The District continues to benefit under the programme since its introduction. The table below shows the number and category of beneficiary schools.

Table 5 Capitation Grant Beneficiaries NO NO.OF BENEFICIARY SCHOOLS NO. OF BENEFICIARY TOTAL AMOUNT OF PUPILS MONEY RELEASED

1 119 14,643 23,292.25

For the period under review, a total amount of GHȼ23,292.25 was received and disbursed to 14,643 pupils in 119 public schools in the District. The grant has positively influenced the high rate of pupil’s retention especially the girl child. It has also eased parents of additional financial burden on their wards. One major challenge facing the programme in the District is the delay in releasing the funds which affects administration of the schools.

The grants should be released as early as possible to avoid the temptation of school authorities taking money from the pupils in order to meet the running cost of the schools. Grants of schools with a population below a given number should be increased by a certain percentage in order to increase their enrolment.

4.4 National Health Insurance Scheme The National Health Insurance Scheme is there to ensure all citizens of Ghana get equal and quality access to healthcare without paying money at the point of accessing healthcare. Dormaa East District Assembly recently acquired an Office space for the National Health Insurance Scheme so that peoples would no long travel to Dormaa to register for the Scheme.

4.5 Campaign for Accelerated reduction of maternal mortality in Africa Campaign for Accelerated Reduction of Maternal Mortality in Africa (CARMMA) is an African Union initiative with the broad objective of doubling effort to surmount the challenges of maternal mortality in member countries. Following the launching of CARMMA in the Brong-Ahafo Region by the former first lady, Dr. (Mrs.) Ernestina Naadu Mills, Dormaa East District Assembly has made some commitments in support of (CARMMA) and the outcome of these commitments are as follows:

1. Completed and commissioned a Modern Polyclinic at Wamfie

2. 80% complete on the construction of 1No. CHPS at Prepreshed

3. Completed and Commissioned a CHPS Compound at Kyenkyenase

4. Completed and commissioned 1No. CHPS Compound at kumijimire

4.6 Support to community Initiated Projects The support ranged from donation of roofing materials, cement, repair of boreholes, institutions among others. Among communities that benefited from the support included Issakakrom, Kofibourshed, Wamanafo , Massim SHS etc.

4.7 Livelihood Empowerment against Poverty (LEAP) The Department of Social Welfare under the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection since 2008 has been implementing the Livelihood Empowerment against Poverty Programme in Ghana. As part of the effort to expand the coverage of the programme, eighty (8) communities in the Dormaa East District were selected. The communities are: Aponoponso No.2, Bomoden, Kramokrom (Issakakrom), Kofi Buorkrom, Acheawkrom, Sentinasu, Amanfe and Bofitire. In order to meet a target of 544 households, the following communities were recommended and added to the existing beneficiary communities: Nsesresu / Asuhyiae, Kumagyamire, Akontanim, Ampenkro, Sabikrom, Kobedi / Asupra, Kyenkyense and Mewerefiwuo/Abroso. During the year, the officer submitted the Proxy Means Testing (PMT) forms together with the Community Based Targeting (CBT) forms as well as 971 pictures of care givers to the head office of Department of Social Welfare in Accra. The people have started benefiting from the cash donation,

5. 0 HEALTH In the area of Heath the Assembly has performed well gearing towards the achievement of the sustainable development goals.

5.1 Malaria Control Malaria control activities which include LLINs distribution, training of home base care agents on malaria was conducted to equip them with the required knowledge and skills on early management of malaria as well as early referrals to health facilities.

There has been a significant increase in Malaria Case fatality among children under five years, and that of adult in the District. The table above details out the figures recorded between 2013 to 2015. Despite the hardworking of health personnel, these figures are high and need to be reduced through Pragmatic Malaria Programmes in the District.

Analysis Most of the foodstuffs in the district are sold on retail. Maize and cocoyam appreciated in price by 47% and 31% respectively. Price of cassava remained constant averagely and plantain exhibited an 1ncrease of 17% over the previous year. The stable price of may be due to the fact that, it is being used extensively as shade crop in cocoa farms to protect the young cocoa seedlings from intensive sunshine. The price increase in the other crops may attributable to erratic and periodic nature of rainfall distribution which is affecting crop production and productivity.
