EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION

The production of this document - Annual Progress Report (APRs) is based on the assessment of

progress made in the implementation of projects and programmes outlined in the Medium Term

Development Plan for the period 2016.

The Annual Progress Report for the period (i.e. 2016) has been prepared based on the assessment

of the status of indicators and targets for monitoring and evaluation. This report also focuses on

the achievements and impact of the major projects and Programme and interventions under taken

during the period under review.

The objectives of the Annual Progress Report for the year 2016 are to:

Provide a single source of information on progress the District is making through the

implementation of the Medium Term Development Plan.

Identify the difficulties encountered in the achievement of the objectives of the MTDP.

Propose recommendations for addressing the challenges.

The Annual progress Report (2016) submitted by the Akatsi North District Assembly is divided

into three chapters

The first chapter presents the key monitoring and evaluation objectives for the year, 2016,

processes involved and difficulties encountered in the preparation of the document and status of

implementation of the DMTDP (2014 - 2017).

Chapter two deals with the programmes/ projects status for the year, update on disbursements from

funding sources, update on indicators and targets, update on critical Development and Poverty

Issues, and Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation.

Chapter three covers key issues addressed and those yet to be addressed and recommendations.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

The Akatsi North District Assembly was established by Legislative instrument (LI) 2161 of 2012.

The District exists to improve upon the living conditions of the people through the mobilization of

human, material and financial resources in the provision of basic amenities.

To really understand and break the poverty cycle or the under development which pertains to the

District, it is important to identify and critically study the physical environment within which the

people live, as it contributes to a great extent the kind of economic activities and occupations

present in the area and subsequently the income levels of the people.

The output of the study resulted in identifying the sort of projects and programmes earmarked for

implementation in the MTDP during the period, 2016.

1.1 THE KEY MONITORING AND EVALUATION OBJECTIVE FOR THE YEAR.

The main objectives of Monitoring and Evaluation is to institute an effective and efficient system

for tracking the progress of programmes and projects in the district, and generate timely reports to

NDPC and other stakeholders through the RPCU.

The Monitoring and Evaluation exercise is to provide a flexible guide to the steps used to document

MTDP activities and how to measure progress towards the achievement of MTDP goals and

objectives in a structured way.

In addition, the process provides a clear picture of the MTDP M/E Mechanism and detailed

information on how specific activities and outputs will be monitored and evaluated to provide clear

understanding, and lessons learnt from the project implementation.

6

PROCESSES INVOLVED AND DIFFICULTIES ENCOUNTERED

Information used in the preparation of this report was mainly from primary and secondary sources.

In an attempt to develop the District, having in mind the limited resources available to the District

Assembly; efforts were made to have other development partners as collaborators in the provision

of information. Such institutions include:

1. Central Government

2. GETFUND.

3. GSOP

4. REP

5. DDF

In the process of the preparation of the District’s Annual Progress Reports, specifically during data

collection, the difficulty was the high level of illiteracy among the local communities. It was

revealed that the people (beneficiaries) had little idea of the progress of projects/programmes on-

going in their communities.

Another challenge faced during the M&E process was access to funds. Though, the budget of the

Assembly makes provision for M&E, the untimely release of funds by the Central Government

had a negative bearing on the M&E. This brings to question the frequency of visits paid to project

sites by the Monitoring Team due to inadequate budgetary allocations provided in the annual

budget. Even the little provision made is diverted to other uses. It became clear, during the process

of compiling this report, that MMDAs are not much enthused about allocating resources to

undertake M/E activities, thereby heaping a lot of pressure on the Planning Unit to attempt to

undertake all activities by itself which is not the best.

Furthermore, there is no specific vehicle for project monitoring assigned to the secretariat. This

makes the operations of the Monitoring and Evaluation Team difficult.

7

STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF MEDIUM TERM DEVELOPMENT PLAN – 2016

A thorough review of the District Medium Term Development Plan (2014-2017) was undertaken

by the DPCU members. The process fell in line with the end of year Annual Review as indicated

in the table below in relation to the three thematic areas

The process revealed that projects which were to be funded by the District Assembly and could

not be implemented were due to lack of funds while those funded through other interventions could

not be directly controlled by the Assembly. For instance, projects and programmes implemented

by Decentralized Departments could not be controlled and directed.

CHAPTER TWO

MONITORING AND EVALUATION ACTIVITIES REPORT

PROGRAMME/PROJECT STATUS FOR THE YEAR

Specific interventions have been adopted under the Medium Term Development Plan to ensure

maximum implementation of the plan. Priority projects have been proposed for Socio-

Economic Development of the District taking cognizance of the potentials and opportunities

that abound in the District to enable the plan enjoy support with available human and financial

resources.

The District has also assigned to itself the co-ordination, implementation and supervisory roles.

It must also be noted that it may not be possible to adhere strictly to the implementation

schedule proposed for the various programmes and projects as a result of scarce resources.

The effective implementation of the plan during the year under review called for an approach

that sought to optimize utilization of available resources both internally and externally.

Consequently, the table below indicates the implementation strategy through:

The mobilization of local resources.

Partnership with external agencies.

Judicious use of available resources and cohesive institutional linkages and networking.

The table indicates that about 65 percent of projects under implementation are completed and

a sizable number too near completion. A critical look at the project areas shows that there

was a lot of emphasis on school blocks, Staff accommodation, water and sanitation, market

and health infrastructure which are critical indicators in achieving poverty reduction in the

District. It must also be noted that the table below includes all other interventions outside the

District Annual Action plan 2016.

With regard to domestic violence, in 2013 the reported cases were 55. In 2014, however, the case

reduced to 20. It is clear from the above table that the numbers had reduced; the rate of decrease

is very significant. Public education needs to be carried out to see a downward trend. The public

needs to be educated on the need to report cases of domestic violence to the appropriate quarters

irrespective of its degree and how the law is going to deal with culprits. But comparatively 2016

recorded very low cases of abuse.

The water and sanitation sector did not do particularly well, necessitating significant expansion of

infrastructure. In addition, because the district only became operational in June, 2012, there has

not been adequate enough data to properly measure performance in this sector.SCHOOL

The Ghana School Feeding Programme, in 2013, while the number of schools remained 12. In

2014, the enrolment reduced marginally by 7.35% (in nominal figures the reduction was 180). The

disbursed amount was One Hundred and Eighty- Seven Thousand, Two Hundred and Eighty-Eight

cedis, Fifty Pesewas (GH¢ 187,288.50). In 2016, the enrolment increased marginally by 6.56% (in

nominal figures the increment was 149). The disbursed amount was Ninety Six Thousand five

hundred and ten Ghana cedis (96,541.00).

In sum, the total enrolment as compared to 2014 increased by 149 showing an increment 6.56%.

As per this report we may not be able to associate this increment in enrolment to the

implementation of the school feeding programme but we strongly believe that an increase in the

price money per student may help increase enrolment and retention.

It is important to note that, the above stated critical development and poverty issues have been

identified and need to be supported and sustained to ensure that the needy, the vulnerable and the

marginalized are taken care of.

The table above shows that there were 10 reported cases of HIV &AIDS in 2016. In 2014 however;

there were as many as 6 reported cases. Using 2014 as the base year, the 10 reported infection

cases which represent 40% increase over the 2014 figure is very alarming. It could also mean that

awareness about HIV & AIDS has reduced.

CHAPTER THREE

THE WAY FORWARD

Looking at the overall performance of the District in the year under review (2016), the Assembly

though could not achieve all the set targets but a meaningful amount of the targets were achieved.

A major challenge faced by the Assembly during the implementation of the 2016 Action plan was

the untimely release of funds by the central government. This challenge resulted in the delay of

the implementation of most of the Assembly’s intended projects and programmes.

Another major challenge in the implementation process was the irregular supervision, monitoring

and evaluation of the planned projects and programmes. Access to vehicle and funds to facilitate

the monitoring and evaluation of the Assembly’s projects and programmes by the DPCU was a

major problem for the year under review.

Access to data from the decentralized departments and other units of the Assembly has also been

major challenge. Most of the time, request sent for the provision of data for the preparation of the

quarterly and annual progress reports are not speedily attended to, this delay or create omissions

in the reports.

RECOMMENDATIONS

It is recommended that the above challenges should be taken into consideration to facilitate an

efficient and effective performance of duty by the DPCU.
