The key intermediate performance indicator targets as defined in the project result framework are mostly on track. The project has made good progress to increase human resources capacity in the sectors. Work on improving the oversight performance of institutions for better governance of the hydropower and mining sectors is improving. Successful efforts have been made in the past few months to address procurement bottlenecks and other important packages (hydropower and mining fiscal regime, IPP management) are at advanced stage of procurement and mobilization of consultants are expected before June 2016. Key technical assistance on power trading, mining sector strategy, strategic environmental and social assessment are under implementation.
