Land and Maritime Connectivity Project Tranche 1 The entire project scope will be covered under Tranche 1. Tranche 1 will finance the first slice of the works contract packages and consulting services. 

The project is to rehabilitate or upgrade about 35 kilometers of urban and rural roads in Honiara and the surrounding regions in Guadalcanal Province, construct two rural wharves, and reconstruct and strengthen an old wharf in Honiara port. The objective is to improve connectivity, efficiency, and disaster resilience of the transportation network in Solomon Islands. The east-west Guadalcanal road corridor is in deteriorating condition, critical urban road sections have capacity constraints leading to traffic congestion, and inadequate maritime facilities aggravate efficiency of shipping services. The proposed project will provide road and maritime infrastructure, ensuring access to basic services, increase income generating opportunities, and promote social cohesiveness.
Preparing the Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Project The project readiness financing (PRF) will facilitate a smooth transition from preparation to implementation of the proposed Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Project and will minimize contracting delays and speed up the initial disbursements for the project.
Technical Assistance Grant: Transport Sector Project Development Facility The proposed Transport Sector Project Development Facility (PDF) will improve the startup efficiency for priority transport projects in roads, maritime and aviation sectors for funding by assisting the government transport agencies to prepare feasibility studies, detailed designs, and supporting initial procurement and safeguards activities.
Supporting Fiscal and Economic Recovery Program (Subprogram 1) The Supporting Fiscal and Economic Recovery Program will help the Government of Solomon Islands implement reforms to support a resilient economic and fiscal recovery from the contraction caused by the coronavirus disease pandemic. The proposed program comprises two subprograms to promote (i) tax reform for domestic revenue mobilization, (ii) public financial management for fiscal resilience, and (iii) an enabling environment for private sector recovery.
COVID-19: Rapid Response Program The program will help finance the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes the government's countercyclical policies which focus on preventing entry of the virus, supporting vulnerable groups, and economic stimulus. This budget support operation is using the COVID-19 Pandemic Response Option modality.
Economic and Financial Reform Program The proposed program is a single-tranche policy-based grant. The program will support Solomon Islands' transition from post-conflict recovery to sustainable development based on the country's first long-term development strategy, i.e., the National Development Strategy 2011-2020. The program continues to support efforts by the Government of the Solomon Islands to reform public sector management in coordination with other development partners. It aims to strengthen the government's implementation of policy reforms that ensure the adequate delivery of public investment and services.
Sustainable Transport Infrastructure Improvement Program The National Transport Plan (NTP) formally sets out strategic objectives of developing an effective transport infrastructure and transport services to support sustained economic growth and social development in Solomon Islands. The plan provides the framework to develop and maintain transport sector physical infrastructure and services, and improve the capacities of government agencies and the private sector.  The National Transport Fund (NTF) serves as a sustainable mechanism to fund the development and maintenance of transport infrastructure and transport services.  Of the 1502 km of sealed and unsealed roads, 377 bridges and 81 wharves, NTP targets to rehabilitate these infrastructure assets to maintainable conditions and 100% to be annually maintained by 2030.
Provincial Renewable Energy Project The impact of the Project will be improved economic conditions in provincial centers. The outcome of the Project will be an increased supply of reliable, cleaner power to provincial centers by SIEA. The outputs of the Project will be (i) hydropower plants put into operation by SIEA, (ii) extension of distribution by SIEA , (iii) capacity building undertaken for implementing agency and project beneficiaries, and (iv) the Project Management Unit (PMU) renders efficient project management services.
Tina River Hydropower Project The project will support the development of renewable energy to supply electricity to Honiara, the capital of Solomon Islands. The project will reduce the cost of power supply generation by replacing diesel power with hydropower, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It is estimated that, following the project, hydropower will generate 68% of Honiara's electricity. Transaction technical assistance was used in project preparation.
Preparing the Honiara Sustainable Solid Waste Management Project The project readiness financing (PRF) is required given (i) the weak capacity in the implementing agencies, MECDM and HCC; (ii) the need to prepare an implementation-ready project for efficient use of funds considering resource constraints; (iii) the significant support required to strengthen the enabling environment; (iv) the need for strong coordination; and (v) the importance of early and continuous engagement with beneficiaries. The PRF will create an enabling environment for the sector and for the ensuing project. It will support the government to achieve a high level of readiness for the ensuing project.
Broadband for Development Project Under the project, the Asian Development Bank  will support the development and operation of a submarine fiber optic communication cable system (SCS). The SCS will link Guadalcanal (landing in Honiara) and two domestic spurs linking Guadalcanal with Malaita (landing in Auki) and the Western Province (landing in Noro). Jointly, these provinces are home to roughly 72% of the population. The SCS will provide onward cost-effective broadband access to the rest of the world, which will boost opportunities to set the country on an inclusive growth path through the expansion of business opportunities in the ICT sector and the introduction of broadband solutions to service delivery constraints in key social sectors like health and education.
Solar Power Development Project The project will increase renewable energy generation in five of the eight Solomon Island
provincial grids: Kirakira, Lata, Malu’u, Munda, and Tulagi. The project will help the country
replace diesel generation with solar power hybrid grids including battery storage. This will be the
first solar power project in Solomon Islands supported by battery storage. Following the project,
solar power will generate about 78% of the electricity in the five targeted provincial grids. Project
preparatory technical assistance was used in project preparation.
Senior Secondary Education Improvement Project The report also describes the proposed administration of a grant to be provided by the Ireland Trust Fund for Building Climate Change and Disaster Resilience in Small Island Developing States for the Senior Secondary Education Improvement Project, and if the Board approves the proposed loan, I, acting under the authority delegated to me by the Board, approve the administration of the grant.The interconnection of climate change and poverty in Solomon Islands underscores the critical need to invest in adaptive and resilient human capital. Such investments reduce vulnerability and pave the way for a just and inclusive transition to a climate-resilient economy. The Government of Solomon Islands has requested assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to strengthen senior secondary education and build climate and disaster resilience. The project will help achieve this by reforming the curriculum for years 1012 to make it more practical and by equipping students with the necessary foundational skills for continuous learning and future employment, focusing on skills and jobs that foster resilience. It will update or construct facilities to climate-resilient standards at 10 schools and strengthen management. It will also address barriers and challenges that girls face by piloting innovative gender-transformative activities and implementing a leadership and management program for aspiring female educators.
Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Project The project adopts a sector approach for developing sustainable, inclusive, and climate resilient water supply and improved sanitation in the greater Honiara area (GHA) and in five other towns of Auki, Gizo, Noro, Munda, and Tulagi in Solomon Islands. The project will implement high priority components following the government's water and sanitation sector plan to increase access to piped water supply and sanitation service, especially among the poor households; reduce reliance on groundwater and rainwater harvest and ensure more efficient use of water. The project will also enhance hygiene awareness, promote water conservation, and improve fecal sludge management.

Second Road Improvement (Sector) Project To make the national network of provincial and secondary roads more efficient and effective the Solomon Islands Second Road Improvement (Sector) Project will (i) replace or upgrade about 30 water crossings (bridges, culverts, and wet crossings), build about 20 kilometers (km) of roads and associated bridge approaches, and selectively relocate roads for climate change adaptation; (ii) maintain roads using labor-based, equipment supported (LBES) techniques under national private sector contracts involving local communities; and (iii) carry out project management, implementation supervision, and capacity development including a community education and awareness campaign. Climate change adaptation measures will be incorporated into the subproject designs.
COVID-19: Rapid Response Program The program aims to help finance the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes the government's countercyclical policies which focus on preventing entry of the virus, supporting vulnerable groups, and economic stimulus.
Economic Growth and Fiscal Reform Program The program continues efforts of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to support the Government of Solomon Islands in implementing an ongoing reform program in coordination with other development partners. The proposed program will support continued policy attention to reform, which has become increasingly essential following recent natural disasters, the closure of a large gold mine (an important source of government revenue), and the decline of logging output over the medium term.
Transport Sector Flood Recovery Project The project will have one output: transport infrastructure in priority locations reconstructed, and climate- and disaster-proofed. The subprojects will include reconstruction and climate- and disaster-proofing of at least three high-level bridges and five small stream crossings, 1.6 kilometers (km) of bridge approach roads, 80 meters of cross culverts, 1 km of bridge and approach road protection work, and 300 meters of river training. All reconstruction work will incorporate gender-conscious designs.
Improved Fiscal Sustainability Reform Program The proposed Improved Fiscal Sustainability Reform Program will help the Government of Solomon Islands implement policy and institutional reforms that improve public finances and investments, strengthen fiscal management and sustainability, and contribute to private sector development.
Domestic Resource Mobilization Project The proposed project will support the Government of Solomon Islands to improve tax administration. The development outcome will be improved domestic resource mobilization. This outcome will be achieved through (i) more efficient tax administration that provides better services to taxpayers; and (ii) increased capacity of the Inland Revenue Division (IRD) to manage the transition to a more efficient, fairer, and transparent tax framework. The project will assist in restructuring the IRD to (i) move to a functional structure and train staff in their new roles and processes, (ii) finance the acquisition of a new tax administration information system (TAIS) and train staff in its use, and (iii) deliver a public outreach program to increase taxpayer compliance.
Economic Recovery Support Program (Subprogram 2) The Economic Recovery Support Program is a program cluster of two subprogram grants totaling $10.0 million. The program cluster aims to assist in making the adjustment to an economic and fiscal deterioration aggravated by the global economic crisis. Subprogram 2 of the program cluster will support improved fiscal management and structural measures that will aid economic recovery and place the economy on a sustainable medium-term growth path. Budget support will help protect the delivery of basic services to the vulnerable, and be complemented by actions to engage with key stakeholders.
Road Improvement (Sector) Project (formerly Road Improvement Program) The Project is expected to increase economic growth and reduce poverty in the project area by (i) improving the accessibility of rural residents to markets, as well as economic and social services; (ii) promoting private sector-led development; (iii) fostering market formation, and facilitating domestic and international trade; and (iv) generating income and job opportunities. The outcome will be improved road infrastructure for economic and social development.
Transport Sector Development Project The project will improve access to socioeconomic opportunities by rehabilitating and maintaining land, sea, and air transport infrastructure.  Solomon Islands has been offered significant parallel grant cofinancing from the governments of Australia and New Zealand but has insufficient capacity to plan and implement the necessary civil works. The project will therefore strengthen transport sector institutions by establishing a central project implementation unit (CPIU) to reform the government's institutional structure, implement civil works, and conduct technical and managerial capacity development. In doing so, the project will prepare an environment for a comprehensive transport sector-based approach based on long-term partnerships, sector coordination, and reliance on government systems. Through close cooperation with other development partners, the project will support the government in efficiently implementing all externally funded assistance to the transport sector.
Economic Recovery Support Program (Subprogram 1) The program will help realize the private sector's potential, and specifically the growth potential of the mining, agriculture, fishing, and tourism industries. Progress is being made toward reopening a large gold mine closed during past civil unrest, and there is a potential to develop large nickel deposits. The best prospects for creating jobs and generating
government revenue lie in large-scale palm oil developments, in fishing (there is already one large fish cannery), and in the smallholder tree crops of cocoa and copra. The supply of fruit and vegetables to the urban centers also offers good prospects, as does the fledgling tourism industry.

The ERSP is anchored in the Solomon Islands Medium Term Development Strategy 2008-2010, supporting sector plans, and the 2009 and 2010 budgets. The program design is aligned with a policy matrix prepared by the government to identify key fiscal measures and structural policy actions. A core economic working group was established by the
government, the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands and key development partners in March 2009. The group was central to the preparation of the government's policy matrix. Through the core economic working group, key development partners have committed to support implementation of the government's policy matrix.

The ESRP builds on the macroeconomic assessment prepared by the International Monetary Fund through its 2009 Article IV Consultation. The consultation concluded that new external assistance in the form of budget support can provide a cushion for undertaking more lasting fiscal adjustment and improving budget execution. The International
Monetary Fund estimated a budget financing gap for the medium term of $25 million per year (around 4% of gross domestic product). 

The ERSP has four output areas: (i) improved fiscal management, (ii) productivity enhancing structural initiatives, (iii) support for the vulnerable, and (iv) communication and ownership of policy actions. Subprograms 1 and 2 support the same four output areas, and these will be progressed concurrently under each subprogram.
Domestic Maritime Support (Sector) Project The impact of the project will be increased efficiency, safety, and reliability in the transport sector, contributing to economic growth with improved distribution of benefits.
Emergency Assistance Project The Project will rehabilitate essential infrastructure that was damaged by the earthquake and tsunami in Choiseul and Western provinces, including (i) approximately 35 km of rural and town roads, along with about 19 bridges and 35 culverts, (ii) about 4 wharves and 1 jetty, and (iii) the Gizo town water supply and sanitation system. These estimates are subject to detailed damage assessments and cost estimates.
