  1. PHILIPPINES DEVELOPMENT FORUM Working Group on Decentralization and Local Government Accomplishment Report for 2011-12 PDF-WG Core Group Meeting 12 April 2013

  2. Overview of PDF Working Group • The importance of decentralization in achieving development outcomes led to the constitution of the PDF-WG in 2005. • PDF-WG is a venue for discussing policy and achieving consensus on policy reforms and priorities in local governance. • In 2010, the Philippine Decentralization and Local Government Trust Fund (DIALOG TF) was established as a mechanism for pooling resources to support the PDF-WG Work Plan.

  3. PDF-WG Members

  4. PDF-WG Work Plan 2011-12 Development Agenda Three broad development agenda of the WG-DLG were: • Improving Fiscal Autonomy for Local Development • Promoting Good Local Governance • Accelerating Local Economic and Sustainable Development

  5. PDF-WG Work Plan 2011-12 Structure: Basic Results Framework

  6. Evaluation Process for Accomplishment Report for 2011-12 • Established the structure of the report to follow the 2011-12 Work Plan framework • Defined accomplishment and assess progress. This was challenging since outcomes: • had no identified benchmark indicators • were not empirically defined. Because of this accomplishments are defined as completed projects or partially completed for projects with several components. 3. Drafting the accomplishment report: • Discussed the development agendas, highlighting completed projects attempting to link goals to policy efforts • Presented accomplishments and ongoing efforts in more detail according to desired outcomes

  7. Accomplishments for Development Agenda 1: Improving Fiscal Autonomy for Local Development

  8. Accomplishments for Development Agenda 2: Promoting Good Governance

  9. Accomplishments for Development Agenda 3: Accelerating Local Economic and Sustainable Development

  10. General Findings – Overall Accomplishments • A total of 32 projects/activities were completed/partially completed out of a total of 37 projects in the 2011-12 Work Plan:

  11. General Findings – Overall Accomplishments • Twenty-eight out of 32 accomplished projects were directed to improving the policy environment • The impact of accomplishments on development outcomes are not yet observable since: • 6 are pilots or for roll-out (e.g. e-SRE, Local Business Taxpayer Database, PBGS, BPLS, Methods for Presumptive Business Tax Liability, BCMA) • 8 are draft policies (e.g. Local Economic Development and Local Investment Promotion) • 2 limited scope/coverage (e.g. Bicol-CARAGA and Luzon-Visayas) • The impact of accomplishments in promoting good local governance were more immediately observable (e.g. FDP and PCF) primarily because these were high-level GOP priorities

  12. General Findings – Work-plan Monitoring and Reporting • Though clear and easy to understand, the work-plan lacked the information to identify and empirically measure progress because: • the desired outcomes had no empirical measure • there were no benchmarks indicators • Secretariat lacked a clear-cut strategy and regular effort to update the Work Plan

  13. General Findings – Working Group Coordination • Strengthened coordination among members • Consensus for common positions and recommendations was facilitated
