It serves as a single source of information on progress being made and assists in identifying weaknesses and constraints to the attainment of the goals and objectives of the DMTDP. It also makes recommendations to help address the bottlenecks. It also presents the status of indicators and targets that were adopted by stakeholders for tracking the achievements of key policy objectives, programmes and projects of the DMTDP. The APR is prepared based on generally agreed set of National Performance Indicators with their corresponding baselines and targets to assess progress of implementation of the DMTDP as contained and adopted from the Medium-Term National Development Policy Framework document. It serves as single source of information on the progress of the Municipality in the implementation of the Ghana Shared Growth and Development Agenda (GSGDA II). The 2017 APR is the final report on the implementation of the DMTDP (2014-2017) for the Mfantseman Municipal Assembly. The 2017 APR presents the results of the assessment of the status of indicators and targets adopted for monitoring the progress of key policy and programme interventions undertaken in 2017. It also documents key policy measures and strategies implemented during that year to bring about the expected changes in these indicators. Four typologies of indicator achievements are used. “Target achieved” is used when an indicator has a target and the indicator achieved its target, whilst “significant progress” is used when an indicator does not have a target but current status represents a marked improvement over the preceding year. On the other hand, “Target not achieved” is used when an indicator has a target but did not achieve the set target, while “slow progress” is used in the instance that indicator does not have a target, but its current status is worse than in the preceding year. A total of 34 core indicators were assessed in 2017, of which about 53% showed significant progress or achieved targets, while 20% made steady progress. The number of indicators which did not achieve their targets or recorded slow progress was 26% while 17.6% of the indicators were without data.
