PROJECT SUMMARY
Project Overview
The Project to Support the Air Transport Sector in West and Central Africa (PASTA-CO) is in
line with the Bank’s Ten-Year Strategy and corresponds to the thrusts of NEPAD’s PIDA,
especially the establishment of secured and efficient air spaces and airports for which the Bank
plays the role of catalyst of regional integration in Africa. It is also consistent with the Regional
Integration Strategy Paper (RISP) for Central Africa, whose Pillar II aims to build the
institutional and human capacities of RECs. Similarly, it is consistent with the West Africa
Regional Integration Strategy Paper whose Pillar II targets institutional capacity building and
support for regional initiatives and mechanisms that foster integration into the global economy.
Lastly, the project is aligned to the Bank Group’s Long-Term Strategy and consistent with its
sectoral focus on infrastructure with particular emphasis on regional integration. The project
outcomes will contribute to the objective of action plans for the development of air transport in
the three Regional Economic Communities to improve air transport safety and the liberalization
of cross-border air transport services in these regions to support trade, tourism and investment.
The project’s general objective is to contribute to improving civil aviation safety and to offer
safe and efficient air navigation services in a unified airspace in order to support trade and
regional socio-economic integration within the West and Central Africa region. It will improve
air transport safety, security and effectiveness mostly by: (i) building the oversight capacity of
Regional Air Safety Agencies; (ii) building the capacity of key air transport stakeholders in
both regions; and (iii) supporting mechanisms for coordinating regional air transport policies.
Financing Arrangement:
The project cost of UA 10.996 million is financed by ADF for UA 8.00 million, through the
Regional Public Goods Window. The overall contribution of the three RECs stands is UA 2.996
million including respectively UA 1.799 million for ECCAS, UA 0.711 million for ECOWAS
and UA 0.486 million for WAEMU. The project’s implementation will span four years, from
2015 to 2019.
Needs Assessment
The continental dimensions of the ECCAS and ECOWAS areas, compounded by land transport
problems, make air transport the most popular mode of commercial exchange and movement
of people in Central and West Africa. Unfortunately, users are far from satisfied with the air
services offered today. The main characteristics of the sector in these sub-regions are: (i) the
poor level of air safety and security in the region; (ii) the insufficient air links in and between
Member States of ECOWAS and ECCAS; (iii) weak capacities of Government departments in
charge of civil aviation; (iv) a high rate of air accidents, which is four times the global average
although Africa represents only 4.1% of global air traffic; (v) lack of airport infrastructure and
air navigation equipment and services.
Despite commendable efforts made, much still remains to be done to ensure better connectivity,
economies of scale and sustainable development of air transport in these regions, to enable it to
effectively play its role in supporting economic production and regional integration.
vi
Target Beneficiaries
The project’s main direct beneficiaries are: (i) the ECCAS General Secretariat; (ii) ECOWAS
Commission; (iii) WAEMU Commission, but also the various Regional Coordination units of
NEPAD, the national focal points of ECCAS and ECOWAS, civil aviation authorities and
Ministries responsible for transport, trade and regional integration in ECCAS and ECOWAS
member countries.
Improving air transport operating conditions (better safety and security, regular flights, increase
in flights between capitals, lower tariffs and also recognition of passengers’ rights) will lead to
an increase in human and commercial exchanges due to the accessibility of Member States and
better regional integration.
The indirect beneficiaries of the project are residents of these zones, particularly women and
youth who will operate in a more favourable environment and benefit from basic infrastructure.
In fact, airlines will be able to take advantage of opportunities for growing intra-community
exchanges.
Bank’s Comparative Advantage and Value Added
Since 1970, the Bank has been lending vital support to the air sector, especially by financing
49 operations including the construction/rehabilitation of airports, installation of navigation
equipment, training, procurement of aircrafts and project preparation studies in the sector. This
project will consolidate these achievements, especially by building air safety/security capacities
in the beneficiary regions.
Knowledge Building
This will mainly involve disseminating good practices in air transport programme management
in the 3 REC member countries and in the production of quality and internationally-complaint
statistics and data in the sector. Dissemination of these practices in Member States’ Government
departments will be via documents produced, procedures manuals and training sessions to be
organized under the project. Knowledge garnered and lessons learned will be disseminated
within the Bank and in beneficiary countries.

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE MANAGEMENT TO THE BOARD OF
DIRECTORS CONCERNING THE PROPOSED AWARD OF A GRANT OF UA 8.00
MILLION CORRESPONDING TO UA 3.042 MILLION TO THE ECOWAS COMMISSION,
UA 2.957 MILLION TO WAEMU COMMISSION AND UA 2.000 MILLION TO THE ECCAS
GENERAL SECRETARIAT, TO FINANCE THE PROJECT TO SUPPORT THE AIR
TRANSPORT SECTORS IN WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA (PASTA-CO)
This proposal, submitted for the Board’s approval, concerns the award of an ADF Grant of UA 8.00
million, under the terms set out in this report, consisting of UA 3.042 million to the ECOWAS
Commission, UA 2.957 million to the WAEMU Commission and UA 2.000 million to the ECCAS
General Secretariat, to contribute to the financing of the Project to Support the Air Transport Sector in
West and Central Africa (PASTA-CO). This institutional support, to be implemented from 2015-2019,
seeks to strengthen institutional capacity to oversee civil aviation safety and security and contribute to
the development and safety of air transport in West and Central Africa by putting in place common
institutional and regulatory frameworks in countries of the two sub-regions.
I. STRATEGIC THRUST AND RATIONALE
1.1. Project Linkages with the Country’s Strategy and Objectives
The global objective of the project is to contribute to improving civil aviation safety and to offer safe
and efficient air navigation services in a unified airspace in order to support trade and regional socio-
economic integration within the West and Central Africa region.
It will help to improve air transport safety, security and effectiveness, mostly by: (i) building the
capacity of regional aerial safety oversight agencies; (ii) ensuring compliance with international
standards of the main airports in WCA (iii) building the capacity of key air transport stakeholders in
both regions; and (iv) providing support to air transport policy coordination mechanisms in both
regions.
In fact, the air transport sector continues to face major safety and security challenges evidenced by: (i)
the weak level of air safety and security in the region; (ii) insufficient air links within and between
Member States of ECOWAS and ECCAS; (iii) the weak capacity of Government departments in
charge of Civil Aviation; (iv) a high rate of air accidents, which is four times the global average
whereas Africa represents only 4.1% of global air traffic; (v) the dearth of airport infrastructure and
aerial navigation equipment and services. In order to address these challenges, Regional Economic
Communities designed action plans for safe and effective air transport in their regions. The PASTA-
CO Project is consistent with the ECOWAS 2020 Vision and ECCAS 2025 Agenda. Specifically, this
project is anchored on the air transport development action plans prepared by RECs and validated by
ICAO, especially:
- At ECCAS, the project is anchored on the “2010-2015 Action Plan for Improving Air
Transport in Central Africa”. This plan, which was adopted by ECCAS Heads of State
and Government by Decision No. 20/CEEAC/CCEG/XIV/09 of 24 October 2009,
sought to make air transport safe, regular and affordable in Central Africa.
- At ECOWAS, the project derives from the Air Transport Action Plan which was
adopted by Member States in 2003, amended successively in 2009, 2011 and 2013, and
2
which aimed to develop a well-structured regional air transport system with safe,
reliable, effective and affordable air services for all of Africa and well integrated in the
global network, in accordance with the ECOWAS 2020 Vision.
- At WAEMU, the project hinges on the Member States’ “Common Air Transport
Programme” (PCTA) adopted by Decision No. 008/2002/CM/UEMOA of the Statutory
Council of Ministers on 27 June 2002 with two main sector objectives: (i) Develop a
reliable, orderly and effective air transport system within WAEMU area that complies
with ICAO standards; and (ii) Foster the effectiveness of the Civil Aviation
administration and the competitiveness of air transport enterprises and (iii) Render air
transport accessible and affordable to the population of the Union.
The PASTA-CO Project’s design is consistent with the Bank’s Ten-Year Strategy and corresponds to
the thrusts of NEPAD’s PIDA, especially the establishment of secured and efficient air spaces and
airports. The Bank’s intervention via this project is in line with the Regional Integration Strategy Paper
(RISP) for Central African whose Pillar II aims to strengthen the institutional and human capacities of
RECs. It is also consistent with the Regional Integration Strategy Paper for West Africa whose Pillar
II targets institutional capacity-building and support for regional initiatives and mechanisms to
integrate the global economy. The project is aligned to the Bank Group’s Long-Term Strategy and
consistent with its sectoral focus on infrastructure with particular emphasis on regional integration.
The project outcomes will contribute to the objective of action plans for the development of air
transport in the three Regional Economic Communities to improve air transport safety and the
liberalization of cross-border air transport services in these regions to support trade, tourism and
investment
Key Development Issues
Several conferences of African Ministers in charge of air transport have been organized jointly by the
African Union and the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) to lend fresh impetus to the air
transport sub-sector. These past few years, some improvements have been noted in the operation of
airlines. Many countries have complied with ICAO requirements by setting up autonomous civil
aviation authorities, and there has been a trend towards concession of airport management. Some
invested in improving air navigation services. Nevertheless, safety and security remain major
challenges to be addressed. Thus, ICAO reviews conducted in the WCA region in the form of USOAP
audits highlighted these countries’ deficiencies in the field of air safety and security.
Regarding airport infrastructure, only 4 out of the 69 airports covered by ICAO in the region are
certified as compliant with ICAO safety standards.
According to ACI’s 2014 classification of the 50 most frequented airports of Africa, 14 were from the
West and Central Africa region.
It was noticed in most major airports that: (i) runways and aircraft parking areas are not maintained,
resulting in a rundown pavement system; (ii) technical buildings are non-standard, with degraded
control towers (control block) that no longer offer the required 360° panoramic visibility; (iii) control
positions are unsuitable due to narrow lookouts and obsolete consoles; (iv) navigation equipment is no
longer compliant and is insufficient or non-existent for all platforms, making air navigation uncertain
across the entire air space.
It follows therefore that few airports have obtained the FAA Category 1 certification (Abidjan, Accra,
Lagos and Banjul, etc.) and some have lost it. Others need to meet regulatory standards for Annex 14
3
(Aerodrome) compliance and subsequent certification. According to ICAO, only 40% of African
airports are compliant with safety standards, compared to 60% on a global average. To remedy this
situation, ICAO plans to certify all airports by 2019 and raise the percentage of compliant airports to
the global average by 2020.
With regard to air safety, although 2012 was the safest year in aviation history, the accident rate in the
Africa Region was higher comparatively, rising from 3.27 in 2011 to 3.71 in 2012 which remains the
highest rate globally.
The accident ratio for all types of aircraft more than doubled in the region (6.17 in 2011 to 12.44
accidents per million flights in 2012), with 13 accidents in 2012 against 8 in 2011. It is noteworthy
that air companies listed in the IOSA register had no accidents (39 companies registered to date
including 22 members of AFRAA).
In May 2012, IATA, ICAO and other organizations adopted a Strategic Action Plan for Improving
Safety in Africa which aimed to address safety weaknesses and strengthen safety oversight capacity in
the region by 2015. The plan, adopted in July 2012 by the African Union Ministerial Conference on
Safety and Security in Africa as an integral part of the Abuja Declaration, was approved at the African
Union General Assembly in January 2013.
1.2. Rationale for the Bank’s Involvement
The 25 WCA countries have a population of about 463 million, corresponding to nearly 35% of the
total population of Africa. These 25 States account for roughly 45% of the continent’s Gross Domestic
Product (GDP). WCA has a total area of 11.74 million km² and average population density of 39
people/km². The economic mainstay of WCA countries is agriculture, which employs close to 65% of
the labour force. The combined agricultural, mining, fishery potentials and human resources of WCA
countries should help in their significant development.
However, this prospect is blighted by air transport issues observed to varying degrees in these countries
including: high rates, insufficient inter-State links, dilapidated airport infrastructure, inadequate
assistance in air navigation, proliferation of airlines operating poorly maintained aircrafts and scarcity
of financial resources.
In order to help address these inadequacies, the Bank financed the Air Safety Oversight Capacity-
Building Programme in West and Central Africa (COSCAP) which made it possible to: (i) harmonize
the 3 RECs’ technical regulations with the training of regional inspectors to carry out inspections and
audits based on ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices; (ii) harmonize economic regulations
related to air transport in West and Central Africa; (iii) put in place regional air safety oversight
agencies in ECOWAS (Banjul Accord Group States), CEMAC and WAEMU; (iv) establish air
transport units within RECs; (v) support the implementation monitoring of some aspects of the
Yamoussoukro Decision related to air transport liberalization in each of the three RECs.
This project is a logical follow-up to COSCAP one of whose main goals was the setting up of regional
civil aviation safety oversight agencies in Central and West Africa so as to ensure that Member States
comply with ICAO standards, consolidate these achievements and thereby contribute to improving air
transport safety, security and efficiency. The aim will be to: (i) build the oversight capacity of Regional
Air Safety Agencies set up; (ii) contribute to airport safety and security improvement by support; (iii)
4
build the capacity of key air transport stakeholders in the regions concerned; and (iv) provide support
to the air transport policy coordination mechanisms in the regions.
1.3. Aid Coordination
ECOWAS and WAEMU Commissions and the ECCAS Secretariat General currently receive support
from major donors, namely the Bank, the European Union, the French Development Agency and the
World Bank. This support is focussed mainly on areas such as governance, trade facilitation, regional
integration, peace and security, natural resources management and environment and the bulk of this
support targets capacity building.
The lack of an integrated multi-donor assistance framework remains one of the main weaknesses of
the current donor support for these communities. In the air transport sub-sector, aid coordination is
done through annual meetings of Joint Technical Committees (JTC) of projects, the Yamoussoukro
Decision Coordination and Monitoring Committee (CCSDY) and annual meeting of the Council of
Civil Aviation Ministers tasked with monitoring the implementation of this Decision. The last two
Bank operations aimed at building the capacities of the sector actors are the ECCAS (PARCI)
Institutional Capacity Building Project and COSCAP-WAEMU-CEMAC-ECOWAS. This
coordination effort will be stepped up during joint supervision missions of this project designed to
complement the Bank’s and other partners’ operations. The project being trans-regional in character
can guarantee that the Regional Economic Communities will work closely together.

2.1.4. The details of some key activities are given in Annex II.
2.2. Technical Solutions Adopted and Alternatives Explored
2.2.1 Although the causes of the human and financial resource constraints of ECCAS, ECOWAS
and WAEMU in the air transport sector are linked to inadequate management mechanisms, they are
also of a structural nature. Institutional reforms are necessary to address these difficulties. In parallel,
these institutions are in dire need of capacity reinforcement to advance the integration agenda in such
priority areas as air transport development and harmonization of sector policies including those linked
to transport facilitation. Thus, the approach adopted by the project consists in supporting the
implementation of action plans for air transport development in these regions and in providing
technical assistance via organizations such as ICAO and EASA capable of strengthening the existing
capacities of these institutions to enable them carry through the work programmes for key sectors
(infrastructure, transport, commerce, statistics, programming).

Alternatives Considered and Reasons for Rejection Alternative Solutions Brief Description Causes of Rejection
Option of a separate project per
REC
Each REC manages components assigned
to it through a separate grant
This would not allow for an exchange of experience and
data on the sector and project implementation; Also
sector constraints are identical for the various regions
2.3. Project Type
2.3.1 PASTA-CO is an institutional support project which, by virtue of its regional dimension and
its objectives, contributes to the promotion of a Regional Public Good. Indeed, it fulfils the conditions
set out in the new Strategy and Policy approved by the Bank in 2014 and the eligibility criteria for
Regional Public Goods (cf. Annex I). The choice of institutional support as the form of intervention
stemmed from the nature of planned activities (technical assistance, studies and training) to be
implemented in several institutions. Through this institutional support, the Bank also intends to
strengthen synergy with the support of other TFPs working to build capacity in agencies tasked with
steering institutional reforms and the support of regional integration mechanisms targeted by this
project.
2.4. Project Cost and Financing Arrangement
The project cost estimates, net of taxes and customs duties, is UA 15.188 million (equivalent to CFAF
11.694 billion at the December 2014 exchange rate of UA 1 = CFAF 769.923). These cost estimates
were based on the unit costs of similar projects in the same area and sector. The summaries of cost estimates by project component and expenditure category are given respectively

2.5. Project Target Area and Beneficiaries
2.5.1 The Project Area (PA) covers the 25 member countries of ECOWAS and ECCAS and a
surface area of 11,740,600 km² (nearly 35% of the total area of Africa). The target population is about
463 million people. The project’s main direct beneficiaries are: (i) the ECCAS General Secretariat;
(ii) the ECOWAS Commission; (iii) the WAEMU Commission as well as NEPAD Regional
Coordination Offices, national focal points of ECCAS and ECOWAS, civil aviation administrations
and the Ministries responsible for Transport, Trade and Regional Integration in ECCAS and ECOWAS
Member States.
2.5.2. The project’s indirect beneficiaries are the population of these countries, women, youth and
the aviation sector that will benefit from a more favourable regulatory environment and basic
infrastructure. Indeed, airlines will benefit from growth opportunities for inter-community exchanges.
2.6. Participatory Approach in Project Identification, Design and Implementation
The participatory approach was respected at all stages of the project. The various stakeholders –
Directorates of Civil Aviation, airlines, officials of regional safety agencies as well as Government
departments responsible for steering the project – were consulted during the project preparation and
appraisal mission. Through their participation, pioneer agencies of the sector such as ICAO, EASA
and ASECNA lent assistance to the project design, especially for the choice of relevant activities in
line with the action plans for improving air transport in the regions concerned. This process will
continue during project implementation.
8
2.7. Bank Group Experience and Lessons Reflected in Project Design.
Since 1970, the Bank has lent significant support to the air sector, especially by financing 49 operations
including the construction/rehabilitation of airports, installation of navigation equipment, training,
procurement of aircraft and project preparation studies in the sector. This most recent operations
concern the rehabilitation of the Mohammed V airport in Rabat, Morocco, the Praia airport in Cape
Verde, the Air Transport Safety Project in DRC and lastly the COSCAP Project. In Central Africa, the
Bank financed the ECCAS Institutional Capacity-Building Support Project (PARCI) whose experts,
including the Administrative and Financial Officer, the Accountant and the Procurement Expert, will
be placed at this project’s disposal to ensure complementarity of Bank operations.
The design of this project was informed by lessons learned from Bank’s intervention as well as similar
ongoing experiences garnered during implementation of multinational projects.
Lessons learned: These relate to (i) Absence of procurement staff at the level of the RECs, accountant,
secretary, as well as project executing agency staff not trained in Bank rules and procedures; (ii) Weak
capacity of RECs to implement regional projects evidenced in the poor performance of the Bank’s
multinational portfolio; (iii) Absence of a coordination framework during projects involving several
RECs; (iv) Absence of implementation report drafted by ICAO which did not produce timely
supporting technical and financial reports on the use of funds received; (v) Failure to prepare audit
reports and final project implementation reports; and (vi) Noncommittal involvement of States.
Lessons reflected: The following actions were envisaged: (i) Strengthening of teams from the 3
economic communities with procurement and financial management experts coming from other Bank-
funded operations in these regions; (ii) Strengthening of coordination team through targeted support
in terms of short-term consultants and putting in place of technical assistance; (iii) Setting up of a joint
technical committee comprising experts from the three Regional Economic Communities; (iv)
Inclusion in works supervision agreements for some activities undertaken by ICAO and ESEA of a
clause requiring the production of implementation reports and the submission of same for the Bank’s
‘no objection’ before their signature; (v) Financial management modalities include the recruitment of
a single auditor for the three RECs for greater responsiveness regarding the production of reports; (vi)
Participation of country experts, via their civil aviation directorates, in the project design and
participation of these experts in the joint technical committee tasked with project coordination.
2.8. Key Performance Indicators
The key performance indicators and expected outcomes of the project are those stated in the logical
framework with deadlines. The Core Sector Indicators (CSI) on which emphasis will be placed are: (i)
volume of commercial exchanges in Central and West Africa; (ii) rate of non-compliance with ICAO
safety/security indicators in West and Central Africa; (iii) number of airports certified compliant with
ICAO safety and security standards; (v) number of safety and security audits and inspections; and (vi)
the number of local safety teams set up in airports.
For these to be achieved in a timely manner, implementation performance indicators were established
alongside these output indicators and aligned to the Bank’s institutional performance indicators. They
are mainly: (i) the effectiveness time frame; (ii) the deadline for fulfilment of conditions precedent to
first disbursement; (iii) procurement deadlines; (iv) the average implementation progress (IP)
indicator; (v) the disbursement rate versus expenditure schedule; and (vi) submission of quarterly
9
progress reports as well as audit reports. These indicators will be monitored during supervision
missions and the day-to-day management of the project.
III. PROJECT FEASIBILITY
3.1. Economic Benefit
Although this project is an institutional support and economic and financial analysis does not apply to
it, its economic rationale rests mainly on the expected effects of reinforced air transport safety and
security. These effects will have an impact on commercial exchanges and knowledge/manpower
mobility. Further, by financing regional safety oversight agencies, PASTA-CO will help West and
Central African States to meet their obligations under the Chicago Convention (and Annexes) and the
Yamoussoukro Decision. Each will benefit from a strengthening of its own safety and security
oversight capacities (thanks to training of its technical staff). Operationalizing the three regional
agencies will allow for self-funding of activities (especially certification), which will generate new
revenue and contribute to sustaining air safety oversight in the region. Certification or audit agencies
of other continents (FAA, EASA), as participants in their operationalization, will facilitate mutual
acceptance of audits and certificates issued and help avoid arbitrary delays. Lastly, the improvement
of civil aviation safety and security is closely related to the decrease in transport costs. The poor
safety/security-related performances of WCA countries make local companies less competitive
compared to major international companies.
3.2. Environmental, Social and Gender Impact
3.2.1 Environmental Impact: The project is expected to contribute to positive impacts on the
environment, especially through: (i) a decrease in CO2 emissions due to the compliance of airport
infrastructure (phasing out of very old, high-fuel-consuming and very noisy aircrafts still in operation);
(ii) the reduction of noise pollution and better protection of residents through respect of aviation
paths; and (iii) support in communicable disease control in airport areas. The project will enhance air
transport effectiveness and efficiency in West and Central Africa, thereby helping to support green
growth in those regions.
3.2.2 Social Impact: The improvement of aerial safety will facilitate the free movement of goods
and people. The expected positive effects are: (i) improvement of air transport safety conditions and
increase in air travel by the population; (ii) increase in agricultural revenues since perishable products
(fruits and vegetables, tropical flowers, meat and fish) will be exported by air freight and tourism
development (hotels, means of land transport, natural and cultural sites, handicrafts); and (iii) optimum
accessibility of Member States, and increase in South-South and North-South commercial exchanges.
3.2.3 Impact on Gender: The three Regional Economic Communities each have a gender policy.
Concerning institutional support, supported activities concern: (i) the drafting of the action plan of the
WCA gender policy in the transport sector; and (ii) training on gender issues in regional transport
projects. The project’s training component will reach out to 40% of women. To tackle the challenge
of the near-absence of gender-disaggregated data in the air transport sector, a diagnostic study of the
gender situation in air transport in West and Central Africa will be conducted.
3.2.4 Forced resettlement: The project will not lead to population displacement.
10
IV. IMPLEMENTATION
4.1. Implementation Arrangements
4.1.1. The project executing agencies are: (i) the ECCAS General Secretariat, through the
Department of Physical, Economic and Monetary Integration for components concerning the ECCAS
zone; (ii) the ECOWAS Commission, through the Directorate of Transport for components dealing
with Banjul Accord Group and Yamoussoukro Decision implementation support; and (iii) the
WAEMU Commission through the Directorate of Air Transport of the Department of Community
Territorial Development and Transport for project components concerning WAEMU and Mauritania.
4.1.2. During implementation of COSCAP, separate air transport units were created within the
ECOWAS and WAEMU Commissions. These will be the project management units. These units will
be reinforced by administrative and financial officers and procurement experts involved in other Bank
operations in these regions in a spirit of complementarity. As concerns the specific case of ECCAS, a
civil aviation engineer will be recruited in accordance with Bank procedures.
4.1.3. A Joint Technical Committee (JTC) will be set up bringing together designated experts from
the three Regional Economic Communities as well as representatives of beneficiary States through the
civil aviation departments. This JTC will be a regional framework of project coordination but also a
forum of exchange among the various Regional Economic Communities. The terms of reference of
this Committee feature in the technical annex of this report.
The involvement of RECs is based on the following principles:
NEPAD, which advocates the building of infrastructure as part of a regional development
vision;
The Yamoussoukro Decision on the liberalization of the air transport market in Africa
(1999) that binds AU Member States, the implementation of which at the level of each
region of Africa falls under RECs;
The need for Member States to pool their resources and work together to build on the
development of international air transport towards liberalization and globalization;
Recourse to RECs helps to make up for African States’ low income and to optimize the
gain expected from expenditure in the area of Air Transport through the pooling of
resources at community level.
4.1.4. As part of implementation of activities for the operationalization of regional air transport
safety oversight agencies, training of national inspectors in air safety, safety audits and APEX reviews
linked to airport certification, in addition to the agencies which will be directly involved, technical
assistance will be sought from ICAO as well as EASA which will be entrusted with the role of project
manager for these aspects. These interventions will be effected through technical assistance
agreements to be signed with the RECs. ICAO is indeed the specialized United Nations agency that
determines Standards and Recommended Practices (SARP) applicable worldwide by all Contracting
States and which covers all key aspects of international aviation. ICAO has extensive experience in
civil aviation development projects in Africa and the Indian Ocean. ICAO’s Directorate of Technical
Cooperation (TCB) has unique capacity to impartially administer complex organizational and
11
infrastructural development projects in the sector. The European Civil Aviation Agency (ESASA) is
currently implementing a similar project in Central Africa with European Union funding to which this
operation will be complementary.
4.1.5. Procurement Method
In light of the multi-regional character of this initiative which involves three Regional Economic
Communities (RECs) – ECCAS, ECOWAS and WAEMU – and to ensure overall coherence in project
implementation, especially for subsequent control and audits, all procurement will be in accordance
with the Bank’s Procurement Rules and Procedures.
Besides, the air transport agencies of the three RECs will be responsible for procurement activities,
relying on the organization in place in each of the RECs for that. These are: (i) the ECCAS Directorate
of Infrastructure; (ii) the ECOWAS Air Transport Unit; and (iii) WAEMU Directorate of Air
Transport. It is noteworthy that ASSAC and BAGASOO procurements will be handled via existing
mechanisms of ECCAS and ECOWAS respectively. ICAO and EASA will be retained based on
agreements, to carry out specific activities within their respective mandates and spheres of competence.
To allow for a seamless implementation of the project, RECs have committed to keep up the agreed
procurement capacity, ensuring especially the existence of a procurement specialist and a formal
organization that defines the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders in the procurement process.
Lastly, detailed arrangements, including mechanisms for Bank consideration (prior or ex-post) are set
out in the technical annex on procurements and agreed upon through the procurement plan.
4.1.6 Financial Management and Disbursements
Based on project implementation modalities, each of the three RECs (ECCAS, WAEMU and
ECOWAS) will be responsible for the financial management of project activities in its region. Project
activities will be implemented by staff in service placed under the authority of the Administrative and
Financial Officer, for the ECCAS Financial Pool; the Head of the External Funds Management Unit,
for the ECOWAS Finance Department; and the Head of the Settlements and Budget Implementation
Monitoring Division, for the WAEMU Commission Department of Administrative and Financial
Services.
Funds will be disbursed at the Bank by the special account method (mainly for operating costs) and
the direct payment method (for procurement of goods and services and other relatively high
expenses...).
The existing fiduciary arrangements in the three RECs have been deemed acceptable in light of the
Bank’s minimum requirements as defined in the Policy on “Financial Management of Projects
financed the African Development Bank”, adopted in February 2014.
The fiduciary risk evaluated for the project’s financial management is substantial for all RECs. When
the mitigation measures and action plan found in the annex are implemented, the financial management
arrangement designed for this project will furnish with reasonable assurance financial information that
is reliable and compliant with the relevant Bank minimum requirements.
4.1.7 Audit Arrangements
12
Audits will be performed annually by an independent external audit firm, which will be recruited on a
competitive basis pursuant to standard Bank terms of reference. The WAEMU Commission will recruit
the project’s external auditor for the other entities; thus, a single auditor will be recruited and within
six (6) months following project effectiveness, in close consultation with the other project executing
agencies and pursuant to Bank procedures. The terms of reference of the project external auditor will
be harmonized to factor in each executing agency’s specificities and approved during negotiations for
the recruitment of an independent firm with experience in auditing Bank-funded projects. Each entity
will design TOR applicable to its structure. Audits will comply with ISA/ISSAI standards. National
auditing standards that are mainly compliant with ISA or ISSAI standards will also be accepted. Audit
costs will be borne by the project. Financial statements audited by the independent firm will be
forwarded to the Bank within six (6) months following the closing of the relevant fiscal year by each
entity (see detail in technical annex B6).
4.2. Monitoring and Evaluation
4.2.1 The implementation of the project components will be monitored by air transport units. Joint
supervision missions (donors and RECs) and inter-donor coordination meetings will also allow for
reporting on the project’s performance in terms of physical and financial outputs.
4.2.2 Project monitoring by the Bank will be through sustained dialogue with the authorities,
especially through its Field Offices and during supervision missions. The project’s physical
implementation is expected to span a period of 48 months from June 2015 to June 2019. This
implementation schedule is deemed reasonable given the nature of reinforcement activities to be put
in place, the action plan and the time needed to set up related systems in the three Regional Economic
Communities. The tentative key milestones are presented in the following table:

4.3. Governance
4.3.1 The project’s governance risks are linked with procurement decisions, the use of project assets
and the selection of persons to be trained abroad or to benefit from capacity-building. These risks will
be mitigated through preparation of a detailed procurement plan, strict selection of participants and
enforcement of standard Bank rules and guidelines with the assistance of ICAO. More advanced
training will be offered to project staff members so that they are fully informed of requirements and
regulations. Compliance with these control arrangements will be reviewed during supervision
missions.
4.3.2 With regard to financial governance, project executing agencies will keep separate accounts
for the project using appropriate accounting software allowing for cost accounting and the production
of reports that indicate expenditure by component, by category and by source of financing. Project
accounts will be audited annually by an audit firm recruited for that purpose. Financial monitoring
reports (FMR) and annual audit reports will be forwarded to ADF within forty-five (45) and six (6)
days respectively, following the closing of the accounting period.
4.4 Sustainability
If implemented, the project will contribute to enhancing the institutional effectiveness of the
ECCAS General Secretariat, WAEMU Commission and ECOWAS Commission. This will be
reflected in net improvements in the design and monitoring of regional infrastructural development
projects – key aspects of the integration agenda, considering the expected impact on the movement of
people and goods – as well as in communication quality and cost. The project will also allow for better
reflecting in these programmes Member State Governments’ concerns about capacity-building for all
stakeholders in the monitoring-evaluation process and policy harmonization. Emphasis will be placed
on harmonizing the action of CEMAC and ECCAS, and WAEMU and ECOWAS in order to forge
greater cooperation and synergy among them and thus move towards the common goal of creating a
common market of Central and West Africa, as a prelude to the African Common Market – the AU’s
Minimum Integration Programme (MIP) target for 2020.
Lastly, project sustainability depends on the funding mechanisms of new agencies. Indeed, if these
new regional agencies have equity resources (from airport fees), they will be more sustainable. Using
the standard fees and charges, these agencies will help to ensure the improvement of airport services
and the sustainability of investments. In addition, the delegation of works supervision to ICAO and
EASA will contribute to the availability of proven skills (initial and continuing training), to guarantee
a high level of service that better takes users’ expectations into consideration. This technical assistance
will boost the likelihood of sustaining project outputs.
4.5 Risk Management
4.5.1 The following table summarizes residual risks (other than those related to governance and
sustainability) as well as mitigation measures.
Risk Level Mitigation Measures Weak capacity of the ECCAS, ECOWAS and WAEMU
Secretariats to assume their project coordination role
High
Putting in place of a steering committee and monitoring
arrangements, delegation of works supervision to ICAO, provision of technical assistance to ECCAS
Sustainability of actions and mechanisms to be put in place
High
Airport revenue generated by the operation of agencies will ensure
the sustainability of investments
Political tension in most of the countries concerned Moderate Mediation to reach political consensus in the countries concerned
14
4.5.2 The above analysis reveals that project risks are relatively high. Nevertheless, the outputs
achieved by ECCAS, WAEMU and ECOWAS and the regional context argue in favour of Bank
support to the project, in light of the expected significant progress in terms of institutional effectiveness
and REC ownership of this operation and ongoing NEPAD projects and considering the Bank’s
commitment to see the mutation of these RECs through as part of its mandate and regional integration
strategy.
4.6. Knowledge Building
The project design has benefited from the assistance of ICAO, ASECNA and EASA. This will mainly
entail the dissemination of good practices in air transport programme management in Member States
of the three RECs and in the production of quality internationally-compliant statistics and data in the
sector. These practices will be disseminated in Government departments of member countries through
distribution of documents produced, procedure manuals as well as training sessions that will be
organized during the project. This knowledge and the lessons learned will be disseminated within the
Bank and in beneficiary countries.

I
Annex I
Selection Indicators Remarks
A. Absence of rivalry:
One party can enjoy benefits without these
benefits being (much) less available for the
other parties
The project outcomes are: Outcome 1 : Improvement of the level of air transport safety in West and Central
Africa zone
Outcome 2 : Improvement of air transport services
Outcome 3 : Modernization of airport infrastructure and compliance with ICAO operational standards
None of these outcomes is so rare as to trigger rivalry and they will
benefit users but without impacting quality and quantity
B. Absence of exclusion :
It is hard or too costly to keep the others out
It is impossible to prevent non-participating
countries/communities from enjoying benefits generated by the
project. In fact, the improvement of air transport services in WCA
countries will also benefit other countries/communities they have
air links with
C. Public interest and ownership
-great public interest and a huge advantage
-there is proof of ownership by beneficiary
countries/regions
Huge benefits and strong ownership; the project will be
coordinated by the three RECs. Airport safety in each country
involved will be managed by a dedicated regional agency as well
as national safety/security oversight bodies and the market
regulation function
D. Regional dimension:
-Must involve at least two countries The project involving the 25 countries of WCA region requires the
involvement of all countries for its optimum implementation
-Can only be effectively implemented if each
country involved participates and supports its
production
E. Strategic alignment:
BPR must be in line with the Bank’s strategic
guidelines
The project is fully consistent with the Bank’s integration strategy
targeting better quality regional transport as a driver of integration.
The project was also selected by PIDA to develop the intra-African
transport market through implementation of the Yamoussoukro
Decision on air transport market liberalization and improvement
of air transport safety and security
F. Upstream and catalysing role:
The Bank support aims to correct the deterrent
effects that impede BPR or progress towards it,
due especially to the lack of coordination, the
fear of risk and the problem of fare-dodgers
The Bank’s support aims to remedy weaknesses observed in safety
and effectiveness currently impeding the development of the air
transport market
Rationale for the Operation’s Eligibility for Regional Public Goods
II
G. Benefits flowing gradually from
cooperation:
The impact in terms of expected development
of cooperation among countries is clearly
higher than the net positive benefits each
country can obtain acting individually
The project’s benefits are higher (greater effectiveness) than those
that each country can obtain acting alone without cooperating with
other countries, particularly in terms of the harmonization and
implementation of safety and security regulations
H. Effects on development:
- Strengthening of governance
(adoption of health financial
practices; Harmonization of
governance practices;
abolition of trade barriers;
Creation of jobs)
- Knowledge building
(Optimization of data
collection; Dissemination of
best practices; brain drain)
- Environmental sustainability
and climate change
(Sustainable livelihoods;
capacity-building ; Adaptation
to climate change and
resistance to climate variations)
- Protection of human health
(study of homes; Limitation of
contagious diseases;
development of new treatments
or vaccines)
- Regional integration
(Promotion of trade;
Strengthening of safety;
Development of the private
sector)
The project will have a considerable impact on development, both
directly, by protecting human life (e.g. travellers), and by
strengthening sector governance. The participation of regional
communities and establishment of dedicated regional oversight
bodies will facilitate the collection of information on air transport
safety/security levels in the WCA space.
In addition, by ensuring safer and more affordable air transport, the
project will contribute to the promotion of intra-African trade and
greater safety. Market development will in turn attract private
investments in this sub-sector
III
Annex II
Detailed Description of Key Activities
Component A: Capacity-building and support for Regional Aerial Safety Agencies
1. ASSAC – ECCAS and ACSAC-WAEMU
This support consists in the formulation of rules and related guides, the training of senior staff and
regional inspectors for agencies, the installation of technical management tools and the
establishment of a regional database on air safety. This will involve operationalizing the new
agencies through organizational support and staff training.
Specific activities planned
Technical activities are planned for the following aspects:
a) Institutional support to agencies
Institutional support concerns:
- Support for putting in place steering organs and tools;
- Equipment (high level IT equipment, software, office automation, furniture…);
It will also be necessary to ensure effective coordination between Member States and the agency
which should lead these States to delegate at least some of their operational regulatory, certification
and oversight activities.
b) Regulation
This will involve the assessment of instruments prepared at the level of the Regional Economic
Communities, especially the Community Aviation Rules covering ICAO Annexes 1, 6, 8 and 14.
Works will mainly concern aviation personnel licensing (PEL), technical aircraft operation (OPS),
air navigability (AIR) and airports and ground assistance (AGA) and will have a two-fold focus:
regulatory instruments and related inspector manuals. Without these two components, it will be
impossible for national and regional inspectors to successfully discharge their obligation of
overseeing aviation activity in the region. Should RACs be adopted before the project becomes
effective, the first phase of works will centre on inspector manuals.
c) Safety data
This will involve installing an IT tool for safety data monitoring, a tool that integrates the regional
dimension. The tool will be deployed as technical prerequisites are in place, in particular IT
equipment or internet connection.
The use of the SOFIA software at the country and regional levels will allow for the harmonization
of practices at regional level as well as the follow-up of the resolution of safety problems mainly
in the areas of PEL, OPS and AIR.
IV
Alongside deploying SOFIA, assistance will be provided to implement ECCAIRS and establish
the database.
Training
During ICAO’s USOAP audits, it emerged that staff training was the weak link for many Member
States. Other critical elements (often the most affected also) include certification, oversight and the
follow-up of disparities in the areas of PEL, OPS, AIR and AGA. It is also noteworthy that these
are particular areas that agencies will cover.
Since human resources are crucial to the effective establishment of a regional safety agency,
training is a key element of this project.
The planned training concerns two staff categories:
- technical staff of agencies, and
- inspectors of civil aviation authorities in WCA States.
The project start-up phase will aim at specifying the type of training to be offered and the profile
of staff to be trained. Trainings offered in French will mainly be in the fields of PEL, OPS, AIR
and AGA, and will be supplemented by more targeted trainings in related fields. The objective will
be to upgrade the skills of regional and national inspectors to enable them to efficiently oversee air
transporters, maintenance agencies, training centres and airport operators.
2. BAGASSO (Regional Aerial Safety Oversight Agency of the Banjul Accord Group States):
Support for the implementation of the Agency’s Strategic Development Plan
Activity 1: Resolution of serious safety problems
The goal of this support is to enable the BAG States, namely, Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia
which are currently on the ICAO list of States having serious safety concerns (SSC), to build their
capacity in certification and oversight. This should ultimately enable these States to get off the list.
Specific actions:
- Drafting of an appraisal report on the current state of safety oversight capacities of
States;
- Putting in place of a certification process compliant with ICAO standards;
- Design of technical guidelines for conducting certification pursuant to ICAO
standards;
- Publication and dissemination of guidance materials for relevant sections ;
- Putting together of the inspector’s toolkit containing procedures, control lists and
CEA (Airworthiness Certificate) forms for national inspectors;
V
- Training of national inspectors in the 5 phases of the certification process.
A. Activity 2:
The objective of this support is to strengthen the safety oversight capacity of BAG Member States
through delivery of effective ICT services, including aviation software packages, an aviation
tracking system and regional aviation register allowing for the real-time tracking of aviation
activities.
Specific actions:
1. Regional monitoring software
a. Aircraft safety assessment;
b. Putting in place of the register of air operators and approved maintenance agencies.
2. Dissemination of information
a. Establishment of a computerized training platform (CBT).
b. Opening of a technical library.
A. Component B: Studies and institutional support for air transport programme
monitoring and coordination. Adoption of technical safety rules and related procedures
This involves pursuing activities aimed at preparing and adopting civil aviation safety rules to
ensure that areas outlined in ICAO’s 19 Annexes are covered by community rules.
Activities to be undertaken mainly concern workshops to prepare, consider and validate rules to be
enforced within the community space.
B. Capacity-building for civil aviation administrations
This involves assisting Member States to implement new concepts and programmes designed by
ICAO. Identified actions include: (i) Training in community civil aviation safety regulations; (ii)
Support for the activities of USOAP ongoing surveillance method; (iii) Support to put in place
national safety programmes (NSP); (iv) establishment of regional expertise on dangerous goods;
(v) Assistance in the delivery of operators’ SMS; (vi) creation of a databank on safety.
VI
C. Strengthening of capacities to investigate aviation accidents and incidents
This activity will comprise actions undertaken to build Member States’ capacities to investigate
accidents through seminars and workshops organized in cooperation with ICAO and renowned
investigation bureaus and to re-update the ACIP/ICAO study undertaken in 2010.
The following activities are envisaged: (i) Sensitization and training seminars on accident
investigation; (ii) Update of the 2010 ACIP/ICAO study on the creation of a regional accidents
investigation agency; and (iii) Study validation workshop.
The Search and Rescue (SAR) arrangement will also be reinforced and a regional SAR cooperation
and coordination mechanism put in place.
D. Support for implementation of the CAPSCA programme
Pursuant to Article 14 of the Chicago Convention on civil aviation, ICAO Member States
committed to take effective measures to prevent the spread of communicable diseases through air
travel including Ebola fever.
CAPSCA (Cooperative Arrangement for the Prevention of the Spread of Communicable Disease
through Air Travel) Programme is already in force in the 191 Member States of ICAO and gives
rise to meetings, training workshops and seminars.
Issues related to diseases spread through air travellers will be included in the ICAO Audits
agreement as from 2013. This project, formulated as the Ebola epidemic, continues, will support
RECs in accompanying their Member States through implementation of the following activities:
- Training of CAPSCA technical advisers;
- Sensitization seminars in Member States;
- Conduct of inspection and assistance missions in Member States;
Component C: Support for the certification and compliance of ECCAS and ECOWAS
Member States’ international airports
This involves the compliance of the main airports of ECOWAS and ECCAS Member States.
Twenty (20) airports of the region were identified in collaboration with the RECs and ICAO to
benefit from this assistance.
Four (4) major actions were identified:
- APEX safety and security review and conduct of a compliance study of the
region’s airport and aviation infrastructure with a view to defining a programme to
upgrade airport and aviation infrastructure/installations and aerial navigation
services:
consultancy service to conduct a diagnostic study, assess needs and prepare a
VII
compliance programme/plan;
study feedback workshop and validation of the compliance programme;
prospecting for financing (organization of roundtables, preparation missions
targeting Technical and Financial Partners).
E. Member States’ Audit and Inspections Programme
The safety audit and inspection programme was listed among the priority actions of the Common
Air Transport Programme in West and Central Africa in order to address inadequacies observed
during ICAO safety audits and bring on board new measures adopted by ICAO to bolster aviation
safety. It aims at developing a common civil aviation safety policy in Member States, enabling
them to comply with international standards. Envisaged activities will hinge on:
- harmonizing the implementation of security measures. This will involve:
compliance control of the implementation of security measures;
technical assistance and support missions in Member States;
- strengthening the oversight capacities of Member States;
