Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project? Yes No Component(s) Component Name Component Cost Urban Infrastructure and Services 13.50 Urban Water Supply 8.80 Electricity Sector Reform 0.70 Overall Ratings Previous Rating Current Rating Public Disclosure Copy Progress towards achievement of PDO Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Implementation Status Overview The July 2013 mid-term review (MTR) confirmed that the PDO remains relevant, given the current economic and social situation in the country, and the urbanization rate which continues to increase. Despite the significant investments made by the GoRoC, access to basic social services remains a challenge. After three years of implementation, disbursement is at about 52 percent and about 84 percent of the total project amount has been committed. Based on current performance, targets will be achieved or exceeded. The main risks identified during appraisal remain relevant despite the fact that none has materialized. To date, the project has benefited 251,700 people. While this is below the expected result of 681,000 people by MTR, the numbers are expected to improve when the implementation of the water component picks up. The strong points of the project are (i) the strong Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Report No: ISR12311 commitment from the Government; (ii) the regular monitoring of the project by the Ministry of Equipment and public works; (iii) the timely payment of counterpart funds; (iv) the results achieved on the ground; and (v) the favorable opinion of project beneficiaries.
