Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Strengthening Service Delivery for Growth, Poverty Reduction and Enviromental Sustainability in the State of Ceará PforR Strengthening Service Delivery for Growth, Poverty Reduction and Enviromental Sustainability in the State of Ceará PforR LATIN AMERICA AND CARIBBEAN | Brazil | Global Practice | IBRD/IDA | Program-for-Results | FY 2014 | Seq No: 3 | ARCHIVED on 29-Jun-2015 | ISR19128 | Implementing Agencies: Program Development Objectives Program Development Objective (from Program-for-Results Appraisal Document) The Program Development Objective (PDO) is to support the Government to improve public service delivery particularly in the areas of skills development, family assistance and water quality. The operation will continue the broad approach pioneered under the SWAps, combining support for select sector interventions with capacity building to strengthen the efficiency and quality of public service delivery. The thrust of Bank support in each area will be to align the incentives of sector secretariats with the Government’s strategic objectives, to reinforce collaboration among public agencies and with the private sector and to strengthen evaluation and feedback loops, including through citizen participation and impact evaluation. Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO  Satisfactory  Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP)  Satisfactory  Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating  Moderate  Moderate Implementation Status and Key Decisions Implementation continues to be on track. Disbursements have totaled USD 120.8mln so far, or 34 percent of the total. It is expected that six of the nine indicator targets due at end-June will have been met and we expect a further disbursement of USD 16.5mln in September 2015. The Bank will continue to monitor closely those indicators that will not meet their targets: #s 5 (percentage of teams trained in family support), 11 (number of borrower secretariats using RBM model) and 12 (percentage of public investments prepared using new methodology). There is a concern over the multiplication of technical assistance projects – the 25 underway so far have given rise to a total of 89 procurement processes, putting the capacity of IPECE under unacceptable strain. The Bank and PIU have reviewed projects by component, identifying those that can be amalgamated or cancelled. We will continue to do so and to decline any requests for new projects until the mid-term review. After the April supervision mission it was agreed with OPCS that the Bank would use the exchange rate at the date of Board approval for the purpose of the final reconciliation between program expenditures and funds disbursed. 6/29/2015 Public Disclosure Copy Page 1 of 7 Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Strengthening Service Delivery for Growth, Poverty Reduction and Enviromental Sustainability in the State of Ceará PforR Data on Financial Performance Disbursements (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Currency Original Revised Cancelled Disbursed Undisbursed Disbursed P127463 IBRD-83020 Effective USD 350.00 350.00 0.00 120.18 229.82 34% Key Dates (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Approval Date Signing Date Effectiveness Date Orig.

The Bank and Government will also need to agree on a means of verifying compliance with the implementation of the action plan – some actions might be included in the LOA, others might be by decree or other instrument.

PHDLIPDOTBL  DLI 4: Percentage of families with children aged 0-5 enrolled in Cadastro Unico located in targeted municipalities receiving family support through CRAS (Percentage) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) Value 0.00 38.20 0.00 Date 21-Nov-2013 -- 15-Jun-2015 Comments The expansion of the CRAS network has been hindered by the failure of the Federal Government to remit funds to the State. As of mid-May, only three of the 36 municipalities had received the expected transfer and those only for the month of January. STDS therefore proposed to limit the selected municipalities of 9 of the original 36 (approx. 1,000 families) – with consequences for the DLI target to be met at end-2015. It was agreed to consider the target partially met and to scale the associated disbursement proportionally with the fraction of original number of target families who actually received services. This is expected to be around 20 percent, given that the program will devote its limited resources to the poorest municipalities. It was agreed that the mid-term review would consider allowing the inclusion of related activities financed by PADIN to contribute to the indicator target.

This ex post adjustment does not jeopardize compliance with the end-June 2014 target.

This is a short-term effect, however, and is not sustainable. It was also agreed during the October 2014 supervision mission to revise the definition of the index to include a measure of eutrophication, which is a critical factor in semi-arid conditions. 6/29/2015 Public Disclosure Copy Page 5 of 7 Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Strengthening Service Delivery for Growth, Poverty Reduction and Enviromental Sustainability in the State of Ceará PforR PHINDPDOTBL  Skills Development (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 24543.00 24543.00 24543.00 31600.00 Date 21-Nov-2013 23-Sep-2014 15-Jun-2015 31-Dec-2018 Comments IPECE is recalculating the baseline rates for this indicator (reflecting a smoothed average between 2003 & 2013) – which will affect the target numbers (probably upwards).
