The legal framework for the SEED was completed, and operational framework designed. The SEED Operations Manual has been completed, the Memoranda of Understanding between the MOSDH and the Ministries of Education, Health and Finance signed. The registry of SEED beneficiary households has been developed and populated with information on all beneficiary households, and all the existing beneficiary households have been reassessed using the new targeting tool. There are currently 5,396 households (8,581 individuals) enrolled in SEED, of which 27.6 percent are SEED elderly households (1,488 households). The lone elderly SEED households have transferred to the SEED elderly program. The grievance system is in place and the Appeals Committee has been established and is operational. The MOSDH conducted a beneficiary education campaign and over 80 percent of the beneficiary households have signed the contracts for the participation in the program. The implementation of the new operational framework of the SEED program continues. The preparations are on the way for the roll-out of co- responsibilities, the MOSDH has recently begun piloting the use of electronic payments through credit unions and commercial banks to a small share of SEED beneficiaries, has been piloted. The SEED Appeals Committee is operational. There have however been continued delays with the finalization of the Beneficiary Management Information System, which needs to be fully functional to effectively support targeting and co-responsibility monitoring for SEED, and enable further progress with the SEED implementation. The Government is currently trying to resolve the issue and ensure finalization of the BMIS, and an action plan for implementation of all remaining activities is being finalized by the Ministry of Social Development and Housing. Given the fast-approaching closing date for the Project, however, full achievement of the development objectives might require an extension of the Project. 6/23/2017 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) 6/23/2017 Page 3 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) 6/23/2017 Page 4 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) 6/23/2017 Page 5 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  Low  Low Macroeconomic  --  Moderate  Moderate Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Low  Low Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Moderate  Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Substantial  Substantial Fiduciary  --  Low  Low Environment and Social  --  Low  Low Stakeholders  --  Moderate  Moderate Other  --  Substantial  Substantial Overall  --  Substantial  Substantial Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Increased percentage of poor households receiving the SEED cash transfer (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 68.00 69.00 80.00 Date 27-May-2011 30-Sep-2016 18-May-2017 31-Dec-2017 PHINDPDOTBL  Increased percentage of the program transfers that reach poor households with children (Percentage, Custom) 6/23/2017 Page 6 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 47.00 65.00 65.00 75.00 Date 31-May-2015 30-Sep-2016 18-May-2017 31-Dec-2017 Overall Comments Intermediate Results Indicators PHINDIRITBL  The three cash transfer programs are merged institutionally and placed under MOSD budget (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Three Three programs Three programs merged programs No merger of programs, merged under the Value under the MOSD with merged under separate budgets MOSD with single single budget the MOSD with budget single budget Date 27-May-2011 30-Sep-2016 18-May-2017 31-Dec-2017 PHINDIRITBL  MOUs between MOSDH and MOF, MOH and MOE on SEED implementation signed (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 3.00 3.00 3.00 Date 27-May-2011 30-Sep-2016 18-May-2017 31-Dec-2017 PHINDIRITBL  Cabinet approval of the use of the PMT (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Cabinet has Use of the PMT is not yet Cabinet has approved Cabinet has approved Value approved use approved by Cabinet use of the PMT use of the PMT of the PMT Date 27-May-2011 30-Sep-2016 18-May-2017 31-Dec-2017 6/23/2017 Page 7 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Grenada Safety Net Advancement Project (P123128) PHINDIRITBL  Installation and implementation of a modernized MIS generating one beneficiary list and using one payment method (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target The MIS partially The testing of the MIS operational due to The MIS fully Value MIS does not exist is ongoing in the glitches that would need operational.
