Financing Water in Tanzania: Budget Development & Analysis, MDG and Mkukuta Costing Susanne Hesselbarth DPG-Water Retreat Dar es Salaam – September 8, 2005
Overview • Budget Developments & Analysis • MTEF and PER • MDG and Mkukuta Costing
Funding for the Water Sector • Strong increase in the water budget over past 5 years, from Tsh. 32.4 bn (FY 00/01) Tsh. 126.4 (FY 04/05)
Funding the Water Sector • Execution of the water budget has been unsatisfactory (78% in FY 00/01, 68% in FY 01/02, 48% in FY 02/03) • Individual budget components:Recurrent expenditure: 10% of total in FY 04/05 Allocations to local councils: 10% of total in FY 04/05 Total recurrent: 20% of total expenditure • Sources of Funding:Donor Resources: 56% of water budget in FY 04/05 up from 51% in FY 2000/2001 • Urban Focus of Development Expenditures
MTEF: Expenditure Planning • MTEF established as basic planning frameworkfor activities in the water sector • Not yet reflecting the NSGRP - Clusters Mio Tsh
PER: Expenditure Review • Since FY 2001/02, annual PER for the water sector • Finding of the PER 05/06:- sector achievements in terms of policy and strategy development- increase in overall funding for the water sector in proportion to other priority sectors from 3,7% to 7,9%- lack of uniform sector wide costing
Water Sector: Mkukuta and MDG • Water MDGs widely accepted in Tanzania and reflected by NAWAPO and NWSDS • Mkukuta: Increased access to clean affordable and safe water and sanitation is a core element for poverty reduction • Cluster Strategies with interventions in the water sector and operational targets until 2010
Costing • Several Costings of water-related MDG targets have been carried out in previous years. • Costing of the interventions for reaching the Mkutkuta operational targets are part of the Mkukuta Implementation Plan • Recognized need for a comprehensive medium- and long-term MDG and MKUKUTA costing => Define the Financing Gap => Basis for Investment Programme
MDG Costing • Comparative Analysis of costings shows large variations due to different assumptions
Mkukuta Costing • Most recent costing exercise initiated in July 2005 as Part of the Implementation Plan of the Mkukuta • Process led by the MoWLD • Broad-based Stakeholder Workshop and Focussed Policy Dialogues • Draft Costing inspired by MP methodology and informed by past costing • Inclusive Approach WS, SS and WR
Mkukuta Costing Total Cost: 3.546 Mio US$
Conclusion and Open Questions • Funding Gap -> Yes • Quantification -> ? • Relevance -> Mkukuta Costing as basis for MTEF • Next Steps -> Workshops for Discussion of Draft Costing in 09/10 - 2005 • Core Issues -> Mkukuta Costing vs. Sector Investment Plan • Priorization -> ?
