3 Annual Progress Report-2017, A.N.M.A

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Vision:

The vision of the Akuapem North Municipal Assembly is to create a sustainable modernized Mu-

nicipality through the delivery of World Class Services.

Mission:

The Municipal Assembly Exists to Improve the Living Conditions of the People Through Effi-

cient Mobilization and Equitable Distribution of Resources to Enhance Local Development.

The Annual Progress Report gave information on the monitoring and evaluation of programmes

and projects implementation outlined in the Municipal Medium Term Development Plan

MMTDP (2014-2017) for the year 2017 in the Akuapem North Municipality.

Although the GSGDA had seven (7) thematic areas, the Municipality identified and implemented

projects and programmes on six (6) thematic areas that pertain to it. These six include:

Ensuring and Sustaining Macroeconomic Stability;

Enhanced Competitiveness of Ghana’s Private Sector; Accelerated Agricultural Modernization and Sustainable Natural Resources Management;

Infrastructure and Human Settlement;

Human Development, Productivity and Employment;

Transparent and Accountable Governance.

The report showed tables of updates on programmes and projects implementation as well as

updates on indicators and targets set for the year 2017.

1.1 Purpose of the M&E for the Year

The main purpose for the monitoring and evaluation was to track progress and assess the impact

of implemented programmes and projects on the targeted beneficiaries.

The monitoring and evaluation also provided information on the extent of progress made towards

the implementation of the MMTDP. It also helped to assess whether or not the developmental

goal, objectives and targets have been met in the MMTDP, identify achievements, constraints and

challenges for better improvement in service delivery and resource allocation, build M&E

capacity, and also create database to guide monitoring and evaluation process.

1.2 Summary of achievements of the implementation of the MMTDP and the 2017 Annual

Action Plan

The Medium Term Development Plan (MTDP 2014-2017) is in its final year of implementation.

On the other hand, there were a total of One Hundred and Fifty-Four (154) programmes and

projects earmarked for implementation during the year under consideration. Out of this, the

Municipal Assembly was able to implement One Hundred and Thirty-Five (135) programmes and

projects, and that represents into 87.66%.

The summary of the implementation of the annual action plans and DMTDP is illustrated in table

5 Annual Progress Report-2017, A.N.M.A

Lack of designated vehicle for the MPCU monitoring and evaluation activities

Lateness in attending MPCU meetings and other work sessions.

Failure on the part of some departmental heads to prepare their quarterly and annual

reports

Delay by some departmental heads in submitting their quarterly and annual reports.

1.4 Processes Involved

The preparation of this report was coordinated within the framework of the MPCU. MPCU

meetings were held with key stakeholders in the Municipality on the progress of work on their

respective sectors.

The data used for the annual progress report were the MPCU monitoring reports, reports from

decentralized departments and sector departments in the Municipality. Based on the data received,

a draft report was first prepared and a meeting was held for key stakeholders to review and to

validate. Comments made at that meeting were incorporated into the draft report to produce the

final report.

payment of commission to revenue collectors, data collection on businesses and property, public

education on revenue generation, prosecution of rate defaulters, road blocks for commercial

vehicle etc.

These activities helped in the improvement of the IGF base of the Municipal Assembly as seen in

the table 3 below.

Comments on the Revenue Disbursement in the Year

a. Release of Funds: Funds were not released regularly and were woefully inadequate con-

sidering the development gap of the Municipality. There is a lot to do in terms of provision of

infrastructure.

b. Utilization of funds in accordance with the Budget: Funds were utilized in accordance

with the Annual Budget. The District Budget Officer always allocate every expenditure to budget

lines.

c. Challenges with regard to disbursement: management had difficulty implementing all

prioritized programmes and projects due to limited funds.

2.4 UPDATE ON CRITICAL DEVELOPMENT AND POVERTY ISSUES

The critical development and poverty issues that were implemented in the Municipality during

the year under review include: Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP), Livelihood

Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP), Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ) and Free SHS. The

rest of the other interventions are yet to commence in the Municipality.

Ghana School Feeding Programme: The Ghana School Feeding Programme is on-going in 32

primary schools benefiting from the programme out about 180 primary schools in the

Municipality. The total number of the beneficiaries as at the end of 1st term 2017/2018 academic

year were 6,835. This comprised 3,466 boys (50.7%) and 3369 (49.3%). The programme had to

some extent bridged the gender gap between the boys and the girls in the GSFP schools. The

GSFP payment does not come through the Assembly any longer. The major c9*-hallenges

confronting the Programme is the delay in the payment of GSFP Caterers.

LEAP: The Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty Programme started in the Akuapem

North Municipality in 2016. As at 31st December, 2017, a total of 826 households selected from

30 communities benefited from the programme.

Planting for Food and Jobs Programme: Under the Planting for Food and Jobs programme,

the Municipality received 3,429 bag of NPK fertilizer, 1,352 bags of Urea, 58 sachets (100g)

maize seeds, 58 sachets (100g) pepper seeds, 65 sachets (100g) tomatoes seeds and 20 sachets

(100g) onion seeds production. The inputs were disbursed to farmers who met the condition of

50% payment for the cost of the inputs. A total of 555 farmers comprising 480 males and 75

females benefited from the programme. Under the programme, 346 hectares of maize and 41

hectares of vegetables were planted. Also an amount of GH₵ 109,914.30 was recovered from the

50% payment for the inputs.

FREE SHS: There are 10 public Senior High Schools in the Municipality. As at the time of

compiling this report, the enrollment figure of the students benefiting from the programme was

not available.

The table below indicates update on the performance of the critical development and poverty

issues in the Municipality;

2.5 Evaluations conducted, their findings and recommendations

During the year under review no evaluations were conducted. However, a terminal evaluation

was conducted on the implementation of the 201402017 MDTP to ascertain its status as well as

to identify the challenges for future improvement. This was carried out by members of the

MPCU of the Assembly. Evaluation reports by the various department were collated during the

end of year review meeting. It came out that funding was a major challenge for most

departments.

2.6 Participatory M&E

During the year under review, the Monitoring Team undertook four quarterly monitoring of

physical projects of the Assembly. Observations made were used to update the status of projects

as indicated in the table on Projects and Annex.

36 Annual Progress Report-2017, A.N.M.A

4.0 THE WAY FORWARD

4.0 Key issues addressed

i. The incidents of ‘FALL ARMY WORM’ invasion of maize farms was brought under control due to the provision of pesticides by the Ministry of Food and Agriculture and

vigorous education and training given to farmers by AEAs, on pest identification,

effective pesticides application and timely reporting of any incidence in the Municipality.

The incidence affected a total farm area of 599.2 hectares involving 481 farmers, made

up of 450 males and 31 females.

4.1 Key Issues to be addressed

i. Monitoring of development projects in the Municipality is being affected negatively due

to non-existence of a dedicated vehicle for M&E as well as inadequate vehicles.

ii. Delay in submission of quarterly and annual reports by some departments to the MPCU.

This in effect affected the output of report submitted by the Assembly to the RCC.

iii. Most Departments do not receive their funds on time and this affects or delays the

implementation of planned projects and programmes.

4.2 Recommendations

It is recommended that Management takes necessary steps to mobilize enough resources to

ensure implementation of uncompleted programmes and projects for the year in order to achieve

the goal and objectives of the Medium Term Development Plan as well as improve the wellbeing

of the people. Also, a dedicated vehicle should be acquired for M&E activities in the district.

The following recommendations can help improve the revenue mobilization drive and financial

management of the Assembly:

Re-valuation of the Assembly property

Preparation and implementation of a Revenue Improvement Plan

Ensuring strict compliance with appropriate directives, regulations and enactments in fi-

nancial transactions at all times.

Implementation of the directives on revenue sharing/contract with Area Councils.

Improvement in budget compliance/execution and reporting.

Improvement in the supervision of Revenue Collection/Mobilization Mechanisms

Empowering the Budget Implementation Committee to advise management on compli-

ance
