Recommendations | |
---|---|
1 | The implementing agency and implementation partners should expedite the process of finding a resolution to the impasse regarding the cash disbursement modality of the project. |
2 | The chairpersonship of the PSC should be delegated to the Director of Energy Efficiency Initiatives in the Clean Energy Division of the DoE, and the Chief Director should be regularly informed and consulted for strategic advice. |
3 | The project manager should report directly to the Director of Energy Efficiency Initiatives. The position of project administrative assistant should be considered to be maintained for the duration of the project operational implementation period; extension of the administrative assistant position should be evaluated at the end of the 6-month provisional employment period. |
4 | Granting a one-year, no-cost time extension of the project until September 2017. |
5 | Working out a cumulative work-plan, extending the proposed project closure date of September 2017 in order to rationalise the implementable activities within the given timeframe and the associated costs required. |

This recommendation will be discussed with the Chief Director & DDG for consideration. Recommendation accepted. The arrangement for a temporal appointment of the administrative assistant for a 6 month period is an expedient measure pending the results of the MTR process. However, the extension of the contract period will be subject to the Project Assistant?s performance during the first six month.
