Planning Myths
4
Myth 1: Planning is useless because policies lack consistency
5
Myth 2: LDCs including Pakistan have not completed the tenure of their economic policies
6
Myth 2: LDCs including Pakistan have not completed the tenure of their economic policies
The discontinuity was not in policies but projects

Myth 3: Pakistan Vs. South Korea Model Myth

• Aid Received
• Model Focus
Myth 3: Pakistan Vs. South Korea Model

• Financing for Growth– Debt Funding– Equity funding
• Public Sector Funding :– PSDP– Assistance– Equity
Planning for Growth
10
• Can growth & distribution be achieved simultaneously?
• Is growth necessary for distribution?
• Is it economic growth that leads to reduction in poverty or the process of distribution?
– Case of Trade Liberalization ?
Planning for Income Distribution

• Transformation of plans into projects/programmes– Policies Plan Projects
Main Instruments of National Planning
17
Does Public Investment Crowd-in Private Investment?
• No strong relationship between PSDP and growth (Ghani and Din 2006)
• PSDP may kick start growth but not sufficient to sustain growth (Pasha 2011)
• PSDP contributes only 14% in TFP growth (Masood & Hyder 2007)
18
• National Economic Council– Planning Document (Annual / Medium Term Plan)– Assistance and partnership strategies with donors
• Line Ministries / Public Sector Corporations– Based on their sectoral strategies / work plans
• Public Representatives/NGOs/Pressure Groups– Policy Debates
How Projects are Identified in Pakistan?
19
• History– Introduced in September 1952– Revised by Group of Experts 1995 including World
Bank.– 14 Forms of Various Sectoral Projects
• Present– Only 3 sectoral PC-I Performa (Infrastructure,
Social Sector and Production Sector)
Project Preparation – PC I Performa
20
• Need for Feasibility Studies– Projects costing Rs. 300 million and above
• Financing the Cost of Feasibility Studies– Provision under PSDP– Proposal to be submitted in the form of PC II
Performa
• Highly Technical Projects– Request donor for Technical Assistance Grant
Project Preparation – PC II Performa
21
• PC III, PC IV, PC V• PC-III: Designed to furnish information on the
programme of on-going projects on quarterly basis–Any Changes in Scope of Design–Any Revisions–Any Changes in Management of Project
• PC-IV: Project History (Physical Completion of Project)
–Accounts Closed/amount unaccounted–Employment generated by the project–Suggestions for future planning–Name of the operating agency
Project Approval & Appraisal
22
• PC III, PC IV, PC V
• PC-V form is to be furnished on annual basis for a period of five years by operating agency
– Review of costs– Review of financial results– Arrangements for maintenance of project– Difficulties experienced in operation, marketing etc. – Repercussion of scheme– General observation of Federal Ministry
Project Approval & Appraisal
23
• Approving Authority
– Departmental Development Working Party (DDWP) Up to Rs. 60 million
– Central Development Working Party (CDWP) Up to Rs. 1000 million
– Executive Committee of National Economic Council (ECNEC) More than Rs. 1000 million
– Provincial Development Working Party (PDWP) Up to Rs. _____ million
– Corporations and Autonomous Bodies No Limit

25
Why is PSDP Falling?
Share of PSDP in Overall ExpenditureSize of PSDP [Federal + Provincial]
Current Expenditure Crowding out Development Expenditure
26
Efforts to lower fiscal deficit (IMF
program)
Low and stagnant tax to
GDP ratio
Rapid growth of current
expenditure
Reasons for Contraction in PSDP Size
Reduction in PSDP has disrupted development process
27
How much PSDP reaches the Poor?
Estimate in Rs.
High Low Overhead Costs of Projects Execution 8.1 8.1 Contingency & Miscellaneous (Potential
Savings)5.0 2.5
Duties on Machinery and Equipment 1.4 1.4 Commissions on Machinery and Equipment 1.3 - Taxes and IDC on Civil Works 11.6 11.6 Corruption Payments 4.6 - Transfer Payments for Land Acquisition, etc. 5.5 5.5
Total Leakage 37.5 29.1Amount for Service Provision 62.5 70.9
Source: P&D Division
For every Rs. 100 allocated, Rs. 38 does not reach beneficiaries
Entire planning system is understaffed
Inadequate compliance to project manuals
Weak and repetitive inhouse technical analysis
Requirements of financial and economic analysis not fulfilled
Staff not aware of risk analysis, shadow pricing, and estimating rates of returns
Very short time given to process the projects
28
Issues in Feasibility, Appraisal and Approval Process
29
What is the consequence of 18th Amendment and 7th NFC award on federal PSDP?
How to address near Rs. 3 trillion throw forward?
Can PSDP finance mega infrastructure projects?
How to manage costs/time overruns due to cuts in PSDP?
Project cash flows and benefits are vague
Most Critical Issues
30
Rationalization of PSDP Portfolio
31
Escalation of Cost between 2004-11
Escalation is due to design change, upscaling, inflation effect
Project % Cost Escalation

32
Projects nearing completion be fully protected
Contractual bindings in projects with foreign donors
Development Packages be protected
Only new approved projects falling in government’s priorities
Projects with 30% expenditure may be deferred unless very critical

Share of Federal & Provinces in PSDP
Development Planning Shifting to Provinces
44
• Federal govt will continue to fund higher education & provide for vertical programs of health and population
• What will be the mechanism of funding of projects which are neither location specific nor vertical program?

Portfolio, Program, and Project Management
49
Projects which are politically driven do not provide economic justification
Several projects represent a duplication
New and ongoing projects for which expenditure incurred is less than 25% should be considered for closure
How Provinces should Rationalize Throwforward?
50
Project management costs should be minimized (including corruption)
Dedicated Project Directors Required [current incentives distorted]
Consultancy charges should be rationalized
Contingencies should be reduced
Public sector projects should be exempted from GST
Minimizing the Leakages
51
17 projects involve setting up training facilities in different divisions
Training efforts of the government are fragmented
Such projects should be rationalized
Centralize all training efforts under National School of Public Policy, National Management Colleges and Civil Service Academy
Capacity Building Projects
• Strong financial and technical appraisal should be put in place – may be outsource this
• Social analysis should reflect beneficiary population, dislocation, resettlement, livelihoods
• Economic analysis should estimate EIRR, B/C ratio, NPV and domestic resource cost
• Risk analysis should include time delays, cost variations, design and content modifications
52
Improving Feasibility, Appraisal and Approval Processes
53
• Rationalize Projects further and maintain priority-based completion
• Reduce throw forward through financing modes such as: – Public private partnerships– Built to operate & transfer– Built to operate & own
• Discourage brick and mortar projects• Assure full release of PSDP budget without cuts• Carefully re-estimate cash flows and benefits
