Community-Based Municipal Support Programme (Cbmsp)

Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE

The purpose of the CBMSP is to create “Self-Sustained Municipalities capable of effective, efficient and accountable delivery of public services”. All the National Priority Programmes (NPP) incorporate three principal approaches:

 

1. Prioritized reform initiatives

2. Selected institution building

3. Improving and increasing direct services to the population

 

The CBMSP will be achieved, and is pursuing a three-pronged approach with development interventions in the following fields: 

 

(i) Policy Support at National Level to Independent Directorate for Local Governance (IDLG) to incorporate lesson learnt (revenues, budgeting, community participation, and service delivery) into operational instructions and manuals which can facilitate the expansion of the CBMSP to other municipalities. For the Ministry of Urban Development Affairs (MUDA) support is proposed in the field of Strategic Municipal Action Planning and settlement upgrading and regularization to let the Ministry take the role of enabler in assisting the Municipalities and Communities to plan and manage urban development. Local Level support will be given to the Municipal Advisory Boards (MAB) and Mayor how best to interact with communities and let communities (especially women, youth and vulnerable groups) participate in decision making and apply principles of good governance.

 

(ii) Organisational Development and Capacity Building of Municipalities so that Local Governments can undertake revenue collection, budgeting, planning, design and supervise the implementation of infrastructure projects (including maintenance), conduct Monitoring and Evaluation of Municipal activities and reporting. Organisational Development is basically applying good management practices, how to get things done, while Capacity Building is focussing on developing human resource development, equipping staff with the understanding and skills and the access to information and knowledge to enable them to perform effectively.

 

(iii) Service Delivery by Communities and Municipalities. To enhance the trust between the citizens and local government and make that the project will have concrete deliverables and also facilitate on-the-job learning process Municipal level block grants will be made available and will be allocated when approved by the steering committee. The projects at the community level will be managed and monitored by community representatives with guidance and consultation of the municipality, while the city level projects will be managed and monitored by the municipality and MAB.
