The Ministry of Planning and National Development of Somaliland has issued a statutory directive to heighten and strengthen the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) procedures for all government projects.
The instructions are based on efforts to improve accountability, transparency, and effectiveness of development programs in the country.
The directive in essence is to strengthen cooperation between the Ministry, government agencies, international organizations and development partners, to ensure the transparency and effectiveness of development projects.
The Ministry of Planning and National Development has already taken steps to strengthen administrative and development systems, hence the instructions are part and parcel of the efforts to bolster and improve the planning and evaluation procedures of projects and their implementation in the country.
The letter signed by the minister Hon. Kaltun Hassan Abdi specifying the directives was circulated to all government ministries and parastatals, the UN and all international and local NGOs operating in the country.
