This means that many of the actions from last mission have been implemented, albeit still with delays. Key achievements are: • Establishment of the Project Steering Committee (PSC) and the first meeting was held on February 23rd, which fulfills a project covenant and ensures project oversight. • Adoption by ILC of the Project Operational Manual (including Financial Management Manual). Bank reviewed and provided conditional no-objection. It was approved by the PSC in its first meeting. • Implementing company has finalized also the work plan and budget in accordance with reviewed procurement plan and has launched few important tender packages. • Update and finalization of the procurement plan. Bank reviewed and provided no objection. • Finalization of ToR s and start of procurement for critical packages: Design and Implementation Consultant and for the Dam Safety Review panel. • Submission of first semi-annual progress report • Advancement on finalization of specs for SCADA procurement. With above actions, all overdue legal covenants have been met. Many of the issues identified since effectiveness have been overcome, procurement has started and first disbursement is made. A key outstanding activity is the finalization of the MoU between MED and ILC on operational issues under the project. It will now be important to continue this positive turn and to avoid further implementation delays. Based on the project schedule, the project is on track to meet its objective. This Aide Memoire does not include an updated Results Framework, and the mission requested an update in the next semi-annual report.
