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 Organization of African Unity 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
1,81,271 running from 1stNovember 2001 to 31stOctober 2002..
The Tanzanian Component got on board late and thus the lost time of one year
is incorporated in this Year 2 Work Plan by combining Year 2 and 3 Cost
Estimates and Activities indicated in the Global Plan, which is re-submitted as an
accompanying document.
The Government of Tanzania (GOT) has met the requirement that National
Budgets to Epidemio-surveillance activities should show an increasing trend and
that countries should be committed towards compliancy 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 (17) related activities, which mostly 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 Target Oriented Budgeting System and the inclusion of
Animal Diseases Control Programme as one of the Intervesion logic in the
Agriculture Sector Development Strategy (ASDS)
The first year of PACE (17) was mostly a capacity building and inception phase
of the programme. Implementation of the planned activities and funds
utilization up to July 31st2002 will reach good levels. A developed Performance
Management System (PPM) spearheaded project performance in year 1 Work
Plan. | |
