CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Every MMDA is required to write Progress Reports on the implementation of activities contained
in their Annual Action Plans. In this connection the Bawku Municipal Assembly herein presents
its monitoring report for the year 2015, the 2015 Annual Progress report.
Purpose of the Monitoring and Evaluation for the year
This Monitoring and Evaluation Report is to achieve the following purposes;
1. To assess the performance of the 2015 Action Plan against stated objectives and targets, identify
gaps and see how they can be addressed to improve plan implementation going forward.
2. It is also to review progress of targets of the 20 Core Indicators as requested by the National
Development Planning Commission.
3. To demonstrate how resources allocated to the Municipal Assembly by Central Government
and its Development Partners have been utilized towards achieving stated objectives.
PROCESSES INVOLVED
Just as the case with all reports, the preparation of this report began with data collection, collation,
and analysis. This was after every field visits, review meetings, Municipal Planning Coordinating
Unit meetings and Town hall meetings were carried out. The data collected concerned projects and
activities executed during the year under review including rolled- over projects from the previous
year, their stage of completion and challenges encountered. The National Development Planning
Commission also requests Assemblies to collect data on some 20 core indicators. These data was
collected, analyzed and presented in the formats prescribed by the National Development Planning
Commission. This data came from the Decentralized Departments and Agencies
CHALLENGES
In carrying out the exercise there were challenges as enumerated below.
� Inadequate logistics for regular monitoring and evaluation activities to be carried out.
� Slow response of some departments in providing data as and when needed.
� Inaccurate data from some sector departments.
2
� Inadequate incentives for officials.
� Inadequate staffing.
STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MEDIUM TERM DEVELOPMENT PLAN
(GSGDA II, 2014-2017) and the 2015 Action Plan
The implementation of 2014-2017 MTDP has just completed its second year and about 50 % of
the projects planned in the Medium Term Development plan have been implemented. For the
2015 Action Plan alone 82 % of the projects planned are executed.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
Many of the physical projects especially the GETFUND and Common Fund funded Projects were not completed because of delay in
the release of funds from these sources. Procurement process for some of the projects also took some time. But the overall performance
was good, an average of 70% .At this momentum the objective of Improving quality of teaching and learning in the Municipality by
2017 can be achieved at the end of the Planned period.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
Overall the performance in the health sector was encouraging. A few projects were not executed due to funding challenges. Efforts are
made to complete the physical projects that are under construction and to extend electricity to health facilities without electricity. At this
rate the Municipality can attain the objective of Equity gaps in access to health services bridged by 2017 within the Municipality as
about 80 percent of projects planned were executed.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
Almost all activities were carried out in the agric sector. The challenge facing the sector is that of funding as most of these activities
were carried out with funding from staff of the sector. But the objectives of improved science, technology and innovation application
in agriculture in the Municipality by 2017 and increased access to extension services and re-orientation of agricultural education in the
Municipality by 2017 can be achieved if Government can increase its funding to the sector.For now almost 85 % of projects in te
Sector were implemented.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Department of Social Welfare has not fared badly in this area of intervention. Almost all planned activities (90%) were carried out
in the year. The challenge facing the Department has been funding as many of these activities were carried out without funds. So with
funding the Department can achieve its objective of carrying out its statutory functions in the field of Child Rights Promotion and
Protection by 2017.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Department of Social Welfare has not fared badly in this area of intervention. It is only in the area of registration and inspection
of day care Centres that it did not do well basically because of lack of funds. The challenge facing the Department has been funding as
many of these activities were carried out without funds. So with funding the Department can achieve its objective of carrying out its
statutory functions in the field of Child Rights Promotion and Protection by 2017.
PROGRAMME: COMMUNITY CARE
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE: To provide community care to all vulnerable and excluded persons in the Municipality.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Environmental Health Unit has not fared badly in projects planned for the year. Almost all activities were carried out (100%).
Funding was a challenge in the area of refuse collection but the Unit managed to contain the situation. So the objective of
accelerating the provision of improved environmental sanitation facilities for people of the Municipality by 2017 can be achieved by
the end of the planned period.

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Water sector has not fared badly in projects planned for the year. With the drilling of many boreholes on-going it is hoped that
the objective of accelerating the provision of adequate, safe and affordable water for residents of the Municipality by 2017 can be
achieved. The challenges that have impeded progress included.
1. The water table in some communities is low. Thus yields are low after drilling
2. Lack of funds to procure spare parts to maintain existing boreholes and inadequate funding to drill more boreholes
Lack of logistics (Fuel) to do monitoring of the water system in the Municipality

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Department of feeder roads did not do well during the period under review. It is grossly under resources in the Municipality and
efforts should be stepped up to ensure that the Department plays its rightly role in the Development of the Municipality. At this rate
the objective of Establishing Bawku as the transport hub in the Upper East Region by 2017 will be a mirage.

in the area of disaster prevention and control. For the year, 2015 the Department has been able to carry out its functions albeit with the
limited resources .If assisted with funds the Department can achieve its objective of Capacity to adapt to climate change impact enhanced

Remarks for individual projects and/or for the overall project implementation:
The Transport Department did not do much during the period under review. Understandably the sector is still finding its feet as it is
still not staffed. It is hoped that with time the sector will be well resourced to be able to play its rightful role in the development of the
municipality.

A comparison between revenue estimated and actuals realized indicated that most of the revenue sources exceeded their budgeted
estimates. DACF for example exceeded their revenue estimates by 102 % while IGF exceeded its budgeted estimate by 166%. MP’s
Common Fund exceeded its budgeted estimates by 236%. On the other hand DDF. UNFPA and the 2% Common Fund for the disabled
fell short of their budgeted estimates, DDF 62%,PWD Common Fund , 98 % AND UNFPA , 99%.On the whole it is only in the areas
of DDF that there is a short fall and this is due to delays in the release of funds from the DDF Secretariat.

REALEASE OF FUNDS Untimely release of DACF ultimately affects the physical execution of projects
EFFORTS TO GENERATE REVENUE
The Assembly in its quest to generate more revenue has adopted certain strategies to achieve this. These are
• Sensitization of the general public on the need to pay their tax.
• Inspection of books of revenue collectors to monitor performance.
• Constant rotation of revenue collectors
• Installing a software and updating data on revenue items
OTHER CHALLENGES WITH REGARDS TO GENERATION OF FUNDS
• Lack of commitment on the part of collectors.
• Low level of income of Majority of the populace in the Municipality.
• General Apathy on the part of rate payers.
• Fraud and embezzlement by revenue collectors.

ADEQUACY OF FUNDS
The funds received both locally and from Central government were not sufficient to meet the socio-economic needs of the Assembly’s
budget.
UTILISATION OF FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE BUDGET
In spite of several challenges there was effort to ensure that utilization of funds conformed to the budget.

Between 2013 and 2014 many cereals yielded negatively but between 2014 and 2015 yields were positive. The difference could be
attributed to bad weather or late arrival of agric inputs. Animal production saw a persistent increase over the years attributable
probably to good animal husbandry practices.

Information on this sector was very scanty. As indicated on the table only the Department of Urban roads provided some data for the
period. Besides 2013 the picture painted for all the years is a dismal performance for the department. In 2013 of the 367.03 Km of
roads targeted 280. 20 km were rehabilitated. The rest of the years did not meet the Municipal targets set In this way the Municipality
may not achieve its target of becoming a transport hub for the region by 2017.

Getting data on this indicator was very difficult. But from the 2010 Population and Housing survey statistics one can say that as at
2015 60 percent of households in the Municipal had access to electricity. At this rate the Municipality was on its way to ensuring
efficient utilization of energy in the Municipality by 2015.

The Forestry Department in 2015 targeted to rehabilitate 4 hectares of degraded forest in the Municipality but was not able to do so
because of financial constraints. In the same vein it targeted to rehabilitate 4 hectares of wet lands but was only able to rehabilitate 2.It
is very necessary that Government provide adequate funding to enable the Department do its work.

It has been difficult bringing down the prevalence rate of HIV/AIDS to manageable level towards eliminating HIV/AIDSA in the
Municipality .In some cases the targets are not met while in others they are exceeded. The following reasons account for the variance.
1. 1.Poor contraceptive usage/acceptance
2. Low knowledge about one’s status. Most people do not want to know their status due to fear.
3. Co-infection
4. Testing and Counseling of all ANC registrants.
5. Early initiation of ARVs for HIV positive mothers to prevent mother to Child transmission.

It has not been able to achieve the maternal deaths targets over the years. The target could not be achieved in 2013, but it was achieved
in 2014 but went down again in 2015.Several reasons accounted for this
1. Delays in referrals from the Communities to the health facilities.
2. Delays in referrals from the health facilities to the hospitals
3. Delays in giving prompt medical attention
4. Health condition of mother at time of delivery e.g. Sickel cell anemia

The Municipal Assembly has not been able to achieve its Targets set in the water sector over the years because of the following
challenges
1. 1The water table in some communities is low. Thus yields are low after drilling
2. 2.Lack of funds to procure spare parts to maintain existing boreholes and inadequate funding to drill more boreholes
3. 3. Lack of logistics (Fuel) to do monitoring of the water system in the Municipality.

The Municipal Assembly has been faring very well in its revenue generation exceeding its targets over the years. The result has been
the outcome of the intervention of the Regional Advisory Technical Services that has offered a lot of training to the Revenue and
Finance Staff of the Assembly in cash management. The Assembly also undertook a review of the stores allocated to traders. This is
intended to bring sanity on the use of market facilities allocated.

The Assembly does not have many NGOs offering financial support in its Development efforts. It is only the United Nations

implementation is small.
Data on the Percentage of DA expenditure within the DMTDP (How much of DA expenditure was not in the Annual budget is hard to
come by because the answers to these requests are contradicting one another. There is need for clarification here.

because of the security situation in the municipality.
UPDATE ON CRITICAL DEVELOPMENT AND POVERTY ISSUES
LEAP
There are ten (10) communities currently benefiting from the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty Programme in the
Municipality. This covers a total household of 302 with a total number of 731eligible beneficiaries, of whom about 80% are females. A
total grant of GH₵19,482.00 is received bi-monthly to be distributed among the eligible beneficiaries. They have been receiving cash
payments since 2008 that LEAP is in operation in the Municipality. Success stories included beneficiaries being able to take care of the
educational needs of their children, and also, their nutritional requirements. Some are also engaged in petty trading. These and others
are contributing to alleviating poverty among the vulnerable in The Municipality.
Challenges mainly have to do with a great number of the vulnerable who are not covered by the programme and others who are covered
but not enjoying the services of the National Health Insurance Scheme.
The Department of Social Welfare is also facing serious logistical challenges in the areas of transport, computers and their accessories
and stationery.
It is hoped that if these challenges are overcome the programme can make a tremendous impact on the vulnerable in the Municipality.
GHANA SCHOOL FEEDING PROGRAMME
There are 32 schools currently benefiting from the school feeling programme. The total number of children for these schools is 16,234.
CHALLENGES
1. Delay in payment of Caterers.
2. Limited coverage of schools in the Municipality.
3. Lack of logistics for monitoring.
88
NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE
The Scheme has recorded an active membership of 139,520 who are biometrically registered as at December, 2015. The Office has also
registered a total of 19,642 indigenes in the Municipality during the year.
Challenges
1. Frequent internet failure
2. Delay in paying claims to Service Providers
3. Facility shopping by Subscribers; People hop from facility to facility with the same ailments and end up getting the same
treatment which is a waste of time and resources.
4. Inadequate Staff
5. Inadequate Security.
PARTICIPATORY M /E AND OTHER STUDIES
The Assembly in the year under review has involved stakeholders in the monitoring of development projects in the area. These
Stakeholders include Assembly members, Chiefs, Opinion Leaders, Heads of Departments and NGOs. During these monitoring visits
views were sought from stakeholders about the challenges of project implementation and also the prospects. The Assembly also held its
budget hearing during the year. At that hearing the performance of the previous budget was reviewed and proposals in the new budget
enumerated for all stakeholders to discuss. Prior to that it held Durbars with Stakeholder on fees it intended to charge. It also held a
Town hall meeting at which progress reports on the 2015 Action Plan was discussed and the 2016 Action Plan outlined.
Data on project implementation showed that the projects made considerable areas on the lives of the people.
89
CHAPTER THREE
THE WAY FORWARD
This sector summarizes the key issues addressed in the Action Plan and what to be done next in the years to come.
1. KEY ISSUES ADDRESSED:
Education:
The Assembly has been able to execute a number of the physical projects it intended to undertake in the year 2015. The Assembly also
supported about 123 students from the IGF, DACF AND MP’s Common Fund with a total of One hundred and fourty-seven, and three
hundred and one Ghana Cedis (GH₵ 147,301.00). Thus one can say that about 80 % of projects planned in the Education Sector have
been executed.
Health:
Many physical and none- physical projects planned in the year were executed Percentage coverage is over 80 %.
Agriculture.
Considerable work was done in the agric sector towards meeting its objectives
Water and sanitation:
A good number of projects in the water Sector were implemented bringing implementation status to about 85 percent.
Security:
The streetlight in the Township were rehabilitated.
Rural electrification:
Under phase I of the rural electrification programme, 10 communities have been energized. The phase II has started and some
communities have been energized. But coverage is still below the target. At the moment about 60 % of households in the Municipality
have electricity.
90
Vulnerability issues:
The Assembly has made cash payments to 10 beneficiary Communities under the LEAP programme. This covers a total household of
302 with a total number of 731eligible beneficiaries, of whom about 80% are females.
ISSUES TO BE ADREESSED
All on-going projects and programmes in the various sectors will be tackled in the ensuing year in addition to projects planned for 2016.
Notable among them include
1. The construction of a shopping mall to provide space for traders in the Municipality to do business.
2. To cover all communities not yet covered with electrification
3. Building of a Peace Educational Complex within the Municipality to enhance education and bring the youth together.
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is the recommendation of the Municipal Assembly that all stakeholders concerned with the development of the Municipality should
put their shoulders to the wheel as usual to ensure that the Municipality moves forward.
