  3. Bankable programmes: • A tool for prioritisation of budget requests of line ministries – budget effectiveness • Cluster Bankable programmes integral part of BC1 • At this stage, they contain only rough costing and output targets • Once donors provide commitment to fund them (with ARTF as a key financing mechanism), cluster bankable programmes included in the MTBF and budget ceilings of line ministries • A tool for higher execution rate through good design of bankableprogrammes – budget efficiency • (If donor funding is obtained) through BC 2 bankable programmes fully developed • At this stage, detailed project documents, including feasibility studies, project appraisal, procurement plans etc. are developed

  4. ARTF Financing strategy The four key principles remain: • The need to increase government ownership, including in strategic prioritisation of allocations • A move towards multi-year financing to improve predictability of funding and improve planning • Better integration with the Government’s MTFF and annual budget process • A more multi-lateral approach to decision-making in the ARTF

  5. Financing requirements

  6. What We Ask from Donors (ARTF) • We acknowledge and appreciate existing aligned support under ARTF • but we also need to ensure that there is funding and flexibility for new cluster priority programmes going forward • Donors to providemulti-year funding commitments • Funding commitments provided in time to feed into MTFF, MTBF and National Budget • To fund Government defined priorities – i.e. new policy initiatives (cluster bankable programmes) • Funds channelled through core budget • Next Steps: • Presentation of the Government policy initiatives (including bankable programmes) in June and July • Decision on the best modality for future key infrastructure programmes (infrastructure window or a separate trust fund – with Government having a central role in allocation decisions)
