Promote policy-making Ghana has the institutions and the legal framework to support a national M&E and statistical system, but there are serious gaps in availability, quality, timeliness and use of the information collected. The WB Statistical Capacity Indicator for Ghana in 2012 was 59 (out of 100), dropping from 62 in 2011 and 66 in 2010. Ghana’s score now falls below that of a number of other SSA countries. 1.2 Strengthen national statistical system Proportion of statistical products released in accordance with national statistics release calendar (percent) Baseline: 0% (no release calendar)FY13 Target: 50% FY18 Data source: Annual review of publication dates compared with release calendar 80 (Dec 2015) Statistical Capacity Score (GSDP) (score) Baseline: 59 (FY12) Target: 70 (FY18) Months between end of data collection and release of main report for household surveys(GSDP) (number) Baseline: DHS= 12, GLSS = 18, MICS =18 Target: DHS= 9 , GLSS = 9, MICS = 12 MDAs and MMDAs with annual progress report made publicly available (General Budget Support) (number, percent) Baseline: 0 Target: 20 MDAs and 50 percent of MMDAs in all regions Data source: Facilitate land tenure and improve land administration Issues of regularizing land acquisitions and streamlining the status of leases for investment purposes are prominent. Lack of open and transparent land market is a main obstacle for further development in many sectors. 1.3 Strengthened land administration Turnaround time for registration reduced (LAP2) (month) Baseline: 7 months (FY12) Target: 3 months (FY18) Data source: Regional Lands Commissions information on standard statutory fees, land values and charges on land transactions made publicly available (disaggregated by media, website and brochures.

Data source: National Education Assessment Productivity growth and increased competitiveness through skills and technology in non-traditional sectors Ghana is relatively weak in the areas of education, technology, innovation, and labor market efficiency. GoG aims to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of small and medium enterprises by facilitating access to skills training and facilitate technology transfer, and nurture a workforce with the right attitude, skills and knowledge. 2.2 Improve skills development and technology adoption Labor productivity by participating firms (GSTDP) increased by 40 percent IFC: Students graduated (on computer science, management information systems and business administration) at Ashesi University (number) Baseline (2007): 350 Actual Value (2013): 355 Target (2013): 525 Cumulative (2015): 557 Data Source: DOTS (IFC) 2.3 Improved finance in support of SMEs SMEs receiving loans secured with movable property (number) Baseline (2010): 200 Target (2014): 4000 Non-cash transactions per (US$) Baseline (2014): US$139,475 Target: (2018): US$7,250,000 Data source: DOTS&ASOP(IFC) New training courses/new partnerships established with firms (GSTDP)(number) Baseline: 0 (FY12) Target: 8 (FY17) Data source: SDF M&E

The need to learn sustainable natural resource management, in particular of land and water is essential if the poor in Ghana are to mitigate these risks at the community level. 2.6 Improved land and water management Area of land in selected micro-watersheds under new sustainable land and watershed management technologies (ha) Baseline: 0 Target: 6,000 Data source: annual survey by SLWMP M&E team. Land under formal commercial arrangements for sustainable improved rain fed rice in the SADA zone (ha) Baseline: 0 Target: 5,000 ha (2018) Under its matching grants activities, GCAP is investing in the development of 4,000 ha of land for sustainable improved rain fed rice in the SADA zone. Works for 700 ha are expected to start in April 2016 with another 1,700 ha following the 2016 harvest. The total would exceed the 1500 ha target for 2016 It is necessary to increase productivity in agriculture as a way to increase shared prosperity to smallholders, through innovation, utilization of appropriate 2.7 Increased adoption of new agricultural technologies Processors/producers who have adopted at least one new technology (WAPP II) increased (number)
technologies, equipment, and irrigation facilities as well as development of value chains, encouraging commercial farmers’ linkages without-growers and Farmer-Based Organizations. Most poor people in the North of Ghana are dedicated to farming of cash crops that are vulnerable to droughts or pests.

Outcome 3: Increased access to improved water supply and sanitation People in poor and rural areas provided with access to improved water sources (SRWSP, GAMA, UWP ) increased to 1,350,000 Number Off 1,350,000 (water supply) Delayed Target not yet met due to delay in effectiveness and subsequent implementation of GAMA S&W project, which affected start of activities; bidding for works to start by June 2016. Actual number in 2016 is 850,000. The target will likely be met by the revised CPS end date. People in poor rural areas with access to improved sanitation under the project (SRWSP) increased from 0 to 600,000 Number 0 600,000 Delayed Actual number in 2016 is 400,000. Delay caused partly as a result of ineffective application of the CLTS model to Household toilets and partly as a result of delays in the implementation of the GAMA project.
