| dc.description.abstract | This is a second Annual Work Plan and Cost Estimate for the PACE (Tanzania)
Component which is part of the Regional Pan-African Programme for the Control
of Epizootics (PACE) under the African Union Inter-African Bureau of Animal
Resources (AU-IBAR). The first Annual Work Plan and Cost Estimate was
approved and funded Tsh.1, 004,080,000 equivalent to Euro 1,056,926 running
from 1stNovember 2001 to 31stOctober 2002.
The Tanzanian Component got on board late and thus there was a lost time of
two years that need to be taken in consideration in the mid term review for a
possible extension after October 2004.
The Government of Tanzania (GOT) has met the requirement that National
Budgets to Epidemio-surveillance activities should show an increasing trend in
budget allocation to Animal Health Services and that countries should be
committed towards compliance to the OIE Pathway in the eradication of
Rinderpest. In the fiscal year 2001/2002 besides Personnel Emoluments
indicated in Year 1 Work Plan of Tsh.182, 000,000 the government released Tsh
847,700,000 to PACE (TZ) related activities, which were for CBPP control
(Tsh.434, 000,000) and Other Veterinary Services (Tsh 413,700,000).
In year 2002/2003 the government budget to Epidemio-surveillance and control
of epizootic diseases of high economic significance is envisaged to increase
following the adopted Activity & Target based Budgeting System and the
inclusion of Animal Diseases Control Programme as one of the Intervesion logic
in the Agriculture Sector Development Programme (ASDP)
The first year of PACE (TZ) was mostly a capacity building and inception phase
of the programme. Implementation of the planned activities and funds
utilization up to July 31st2002 reached good levels. A developed Performance
Management System (PMS) spearheaded project performance in year 1 Work
Plan. | |
