  3. CONDITIONALITIES • In case conditionality is stated under section 3.7 of PF Progress regarding the fulfillment of the conditionality should be stated in the «conditionalities» section of the PMR. Pre‐condition is a condition that must be satisfied before project activities can start up. Usually pre‐conditions relate to: • The availability of a budget line to cover operational cost after the end of the project • Adoption of a new law or regulation required for the project success • Important studies to verify the reality on the ground such as if there is sufficient water. • Land appropriation or availability of necessary facility/ies 3
