UN in Tanzania Criteria for allocation of One UN Fund resources Presentation to the UN Country Management Team 26 October 2007
Key objectives for the criteria. • The criteria are informed by the following priorities: • Responding to Tz needs under GoT leadership • Compliance with JAST and Paris Principles • UN reform – “not business as usual” • Prioritising development objectives (where resource short-falls demand) • Efficiency and effectiveness – “performance driven”
Overview • Eligibility • National priorities, ownership and alignment • Capacity to deliver / absorb • Detailed planning for implementation • Initial allocation • Subsequent allocations
Eligibility of programmes for initial allocation • National priorities ownership and alignment to JAST, MKUKUTA, MKUZA • Capacity of UN and National partners to deliver the programme • (These criteria have already been applied to the current pilot One UN Programme) • Detailed planning for programme implementation • (This criterion has not been fully applied to all the joint programmes)
One UN Fund allocation cycle • Subsequent fund allocations to be determined by the programme reporting cycle developed by the RCO and approved by the MDTFO • Subsequent fund allocation linked to the output and outcome evaluation cycle • Information to be used to assess criteria for fund allocation will be sourced from these two reporting processes
One UN Fund Allocation Criteria May Subsequent allocation November Subsequent allocation November Initial allocation • Eligibility of programmes • National ownership & priorities • Capacity for delivery • Planning for implementation • >75% one UN fund • 75% of annual unfunded • budget • <75% one UN fund • Distance from MDG • New way of doing things • UN own resources • Eligibility • Extended 6 months work plan • Reporting obligations • Relevance of activities • Review of outcomes to re-strategise • Funds allocation • Annual programme performance • targets • UN reform process indicators
Application of subsequent allocation criteria……. Subsequent allocation • One UN Fund >75% funded • Allocation of % (of performance • targets achieved) funds for 9 months • minus unspent funds • One UN Fund < 75% funded • Same as above but allocating to JP • ranked the highest • 100% of 9 months cash forecast less • budget balance, starting with JP • ranked the highest • Funds allocation • Annual programme • performance targets • UN reform process • indicators
Subsequent funds allocation • Application of the subsequent allocation criteria when One UN Fund is over 75% funded • Allocation is calculated on the basis of the average percentage score (PS) multiplied by the 9 month cash flow forecast (CF) minus budget balance (BB) • Allocation =PS x (CF- BB) • Example • =60% x (1,000,000-100,000) • =540,000 USD
Application of subsequent allocation criteria – Option 1 One UN Funded < 75% funded = PS x (CF – BB)
Application of subsequent allocation criteria – Option 2 Allocation = CF - BB
