Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Implementation Status and Key Decisions Overall progress towards achievement of the PDO is Moderately Satisfactory. Verification of the 2017 outputs and achievements has just been completed. As of now, around US$ 78% of the works have been tendered and around 55 % of subprojects have been completed, showing overall good progress for infrastructure activities. At this stage, the key risk to the achievement of the PDO is the lack of annual budget allocation for both ODA funds and counterpart funds and insufficient inclusion of project budget in the provincial Medium-term Investments Plans (MTIP) for participating cities to timely carry out activities from 2018-2020. As of now, most cities have been allocated and disbursed nearly the full amount of their ODA funding which was approved and included in the current MTIP. The program disbursement to date is $100.8 Million (46 % of total IDA credit), which is less than the maximum eligible amount of disbursement against the advance and the program’s results. However, for the upcoming years, due to the overall budget constraints from MTIP’s allocation then there will be seriously limited disbursement and implementation of works from 2018 onwards.
