OTHERASSISTANCEMEASURES

AssistancetoVulnerablegroups:Additionalmeasureswillbepursuedasfollows;-

• Creating of special programmes:While ordinary PAPs will undergo training onmodalities ofcopingeitherthedisplacement,elderlyandsickPAPswillnotbeavailableforsuch.Anoutreachprogramme in which they have been linking with the County Social Development Office forassistanceeitherundertheCashTransferProgram,reliefassistanceamongothershasbeenputinplace,

• Monitoring management of proceeds from compensation: If left alone, some PAPs have nocapacity tomanagemonies accruing from compensation andwould endup losing themoneywithout replacing lost assets. The Resettlement Officer will require to network with PAPs toensuresuchPAPshavere-placedlostassets.

• Assistance through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programme: Under the CSRprogramme, training on conservation and crop husbandly have been mounted under theEnvironmentalandSocialprogrammeoftheinconstructionsupervision.OthercomponentsoftheCSRalreadyunderwayinclude:-

o Euphorbiafencingofallwaterpans(BOQItem1.20)

o Allowing communities access to water dammed for road construction during droughtseason

o Supporttolocalreforestationgroups(BOQItem1.24)

o Engagementoflocalcommunitiesinreforestationandgrassingofcutandfillareas

0.8 REQUIREMENTSFORMONITORINGANDEVALUATION

Monitoring by the DoNMED: The arrangements for monitoring will fit in with the overallmonitoringplanoftheentireprojectunderauspicesoftheDoNMED.ForpurposesofthisARAP,monitoringwill ensure smooth administrationof the compensationpackages in amatter thatfavours all. Exposure of PAPs to vulnerability has to be safeguarded against all costs. So far,monitoringbyDoNMEDhasentailedthefollowing:

• Monthlysitemeetingsbringingtogetherthecontractor,REandClient

• MonthlyTechnicalMeetings

• QuarterlymonitoringbyWorldBankMissions:TheRETeampreparesquarterlyreportsinanticipationofsuchmissions

PostProjectImpactAssessment:Inordertoensurethatcompensationandassistancewillenabletheaffectedpeopletoimproveorrestoretheirlivelihoods,anexternalimpactassessmentwillbeundertaken6-12monthsaftertheimplementationiscompletedtoevaluatewhethertheintendedobjectives are realized. For this, suitable baseline indicators related to income, assets, landownership,expenditurepatternofkeyactivities,housingconditions,accesstobasicamenities,demographiccharacteristics,indebtedness,etc.

0.9 CONCLUSIONANDRECOMMENDATIONS

Fromdiscussionswithdiversestakeholders,thereisageneralagreementthattheprojectisquitejustifiable and necessary. It enjoys overwhelming public support. Further, this ARAP hasdeterminedthat,withtheexceptionofafewstructures,theroadupgradingprojectascurrentlyaligned will occasion little displacement of people out of their farm holdings which greatlymitigates would be social and displacement impacts.Measures to offset impacts of the littledisplacementanticipatedhavealreadybeenidentified.

It is important to note that if the NLC is constituted prior to conclusion of landacquisition,itcouldprescribecriteriaandguidelinesnecessitatingvariationsorrevisionstothecurrentARAP.Similar,theCommissionhaspowerstorejectarequestofanacquiringauthority,toundertakeanacquisitionifitestablishesthattherequestdoesnotmeettherequirementsprescribed.

(iv)PublicationofnoticeofintentiontoacquireUponapproval,NLCshallpublishanoticeofintentiontoacquirethelandintheKenyaGazetteandCountyGazette.28ItwillthenserveacopyofthenoticetoeverypersoninterestedinthelandanddepositthesamecopytotheRegistrar.Thecourtshavestrictlyinterpretedthisprovision,requiringthatthenoticeincludethedescriptionoftheland,indicatethepublicpurposeforwhichthelandisbeingacquiredandstate thenameof theacquiringpublicbody.NLC shall ensure that theprovisions are included inhernotice.TheLandRegistrarshallthenmakeentryinthemasterregisterontheintentiontoacquireastheofficeresponsibleforsurvey,atbothnationalandcountylevel,georeferencesthelandintendedforacquisition.

Itwillalsoprovideopportunity to landowners tohear the justificationof thepublicauthorityinlayingclaimstoacquiretheland.

(vii)ValuationofthelandPartIIIoftheLandAct2012,section113(2a)statesthat“theCommissionshalldeterminethevalueoflandwithconclusiveevidenceof(i)thesizeof landtobeacquired;(ii)thevalue, intheopinionoftheCommission,oftheland;(iii)theamountofcompensationpayable,whethertheownersoflandhaveorhavenotappearedattheinquiry.”ThiscanbeinterpretedthatNLCmustdeterminethevalueofthelandaccordinglyandpayappropriatejustcompensationinaccordancewiththeprinciplesandformulaethatitwilldevelop.Nonetheless,justcompensationcouldalsobeinterpretedasmarketrate.ThefinalawardonthevalueofthelandshallbedeterminedbyNLCandshallnotbeinvalidatedbyreasonofdiscrepancy,whichmaybefoundtoexistinthearea.

3.5 WorldBank’sSafeguardPoliciesBy virtue of source of funding, the proposed development of road sections by theMinistry of Land,Housing and Urban Development, and Nairobi Metropolitan Development under the NaMSIP is alsosubjecttoWorldBankrequirementsforimpactassessment.Assuch,thisARAPstudyhasbeenformulatedtoaddressandcaterforbothKenyanandWorldBankrequirementsforimpactassessment.WorldBankprojects and activities are governed byOperational Policies,which are clearly spelt out in the Bank'sOperationalManual("BankProcedures"and"GoodPractices").TheWorldBank’ssafeguardpoliciesaredesigned to ensure that projects proposed for Bank financing are environmentally and sociallysustainable,andthusimprovedecision-making.

With regard to Involuntary Resettlement, the Bank Policy is expounded in OP 4.12 InvoluntaryResettlement.

3.5.1 InvoluntaryResettlement(OP4.12)OP 4.12 requires that anARAPbeprepared for all projects that anticipateminor land acquisition(10percent or less of all holdings is taken) and fewer than 200 people and no physical relocation isinvolved.Thepolicy aims to avoid involuntary resettlement to theextent feasible, or tominimize andmitigateitsadversesocialandeconomicimpacts.Giventhattheproposedroadsprojectwillrequirelandacquisition,thisARAPhasdeterminedthatrequirementsofOP4.12willbetriggeredbytheproject.

9.1 LOANEFFECTIVENESSANDIMPLEMENTATIONPLANNINGWheretheprojectisfundedexternally,theofficialeffectivenessoftheprojectwillbemarkedbysigning of the loan agreement betweenGoK and the Financier followingwhich,DoNMEDwillmove to fulfill conditions for loan effectiveness. During this preparatory phase, DoNMEDwillundertakeactivitiesasfollows:-

(a) ConstitutionofaPITattheDoNMED

DoNMEDwillappointaProjectCoordinatorandcorestaffofthePITwhowillthenmovetoplanforimplementation.

(b) PlanningforImplementation

This has been ongoing through the environment and Social experts in collaborationwith theDoNMeD. The ARAP has been under review. The grievance redress in respect to landcompensationhashowevernotyetbeenconstituted.

(c) OrientationtotheProjectAffectedArea

ThePITwilltakeadvantageofthisPhasetofamiliarizewiththepeoplelikelytobedisplaced.

(d) FormulationofaProjectImplementationManual-PIM(Optional)

ProjectimplementationwillbeguidedbyaprojectImplementationmanualtobedevelopedbythe PIT and approved by the DoNMED. Thus, part of planning, the PITwill develop a ProjectImplementation Manual detailing the roles and responsibilities of PIT officers, operatingproceduresandrules,etc.IncaseoftheARAP,thePIMwillincludeguidelinesonconstitutionofcoreinstitutionsnamelytheLRCCs,GRC,respectivetrainingmodules,etc.

(e) ConstitutionofLRCCsandtheGRC

Aspartoforientation,theROwillmakecontactwithPAPsandguidethemtoconstituteLRCCsbasedoncriteriaputforthinthePIM.Alongsidethis,localchiefswillalsobecontactedtomobilizevillageelderstocollaboratewithLRCCinprojectsimplementation.ThePITinconsultationwillidentify and recommend suitable candidates for the GRCwhowill then be appointed by theDoNMED.

9.2 IMPLEMENTATIONPHASEACTIVITIESImplementationPhaseactivitieswillentailthefollowing:-

(a) MobilizationofLRCCsinstitutions

TheROwillmovetomobilizetheLRCCsbyascertainingthatthereisoneforeachRoadSection,theyhavebeenappropriatelyconstituted,andareadequate.Followingthis,theROwillarrangetraining schedules with a view to focusing activities of the PAPs and such training will coveraspects such as leadership qualities, roles, responsibilities and limits of the LRCC, grievanceregistration procedures, approach to conflict resolution, need for impartiality, etc. Upon

successfultraining,LRCCswillbeequippedwithstandardstationaryincludinggrievanceregisters,foolscaps,filingmaterialetc.

(b) MobilizationoftheGRC

The PITwill finalize constitution of the GRC and follow-up approval with the PS. This will befollowedbyinductionmeetingsduringwhichtheGRCwillbeguidedtoestablishproceduresforgrievance redress.A secretariat for theGRCwill beestablishedwithin thePITwith theROasSecretary.

9.3 COMPENSATIONPROCESS(a) ConfirmationoftheAssetsRegister

Atthebeginningoftheimplementationphase,thefinalalignmentoftheroadupgradingprojectwillbemadefollowingwhich,theAssetsregisterwillbecrosscheckedonthegroundtoascertainthefinallistofPAPsandthestatusoftheirassets.ThefinalAssetsRegisterwillthenbeassembledandcontractsissuedtoallPAPs.

(b) Sensitization/CounselingforPAPs

Kenya is replete with people who squandered entire proceeds from compensation/ terminalbenefitsorevencreditandendedupdestituteandmiserable.Thisnormally isassociatedwithignoranceandshockreactiontoexposuretoapparentlyhugeamountsofmoney instantly.Toforestall such incidence in the case of road upgrading project, the PIT willmount counselingsessions for all PAPs to empower them copewith the expectedproceeds. Indeed, thisARAPrecommendsthataspartofthetraining,eachPAPwillbeassistedtodevelopabudgetfortheexpected payment! The reality of how little the anticipated payment is likely to cut downonadventures.

(c) ConsensusbuildingamongFamilies

Itisalsoexpectedthatpriortopayment,allthoseentitledtopaymentunderaPAPsaccountwillhavebeenbroughttogethertoagreeonmoniesduetothemandonthemodeofdisbursement.This caution is issued asmany householdswere observed to request that assets be recordedunderonebrotherandthisislikelytobringfamilyconflictsoncecompensationisreleased.TheLRCCswillcomeinhandyinfosteringconsensusamongcompositePAPs.

(d) FinalAwardandSigningofContracts

Upon finalization of the assets register, the final compensation sum will be computed andadjustedfor inflationandotherprocesses.Basedonthissum,contractswillbe issuedtoPAPswhowillsigntheirapprovalwitnessedbytheirrespectivechairmenofLRCCsandtheareachief.Within this contract, eachPAPwill undertake to removeaffectedassetswithinonemonthofacceptingpayment.ThePAPswillthenberequiredtoopenbankaccountsthroughwhichchequeswillbeprocessed.

This document provides guidance aboutincorporatingmonitoringandevaluationelementsineachstageoftheprojectcycle.

10.1.3 IndicatorsAndMeansForVerificationIndicators form thekeyelementsof anymonitoringandevaluation system.Theadvantageofidentifyingindicatorsisthatitprovidesmanagementandstaffwithaclearsetoftargetsateachlevelofperformanceandensuresthatprogresscanbemeasuredagainstthetargets.Indicatorsalsomakepossiblethecomparisonofinputswiththecompletionofoutputsandachievementofobjectivesandgoals,thusprovidingthebasisforperformanceevaluation.ForpurposesofthisARAP, four categoriesof indicatorshavebeen formulated to facilitatemonitoringofProgress,Outputs,Effects,ImpactsandComplianceinimplementingtheproject.

10.1.4 Progress/OutputMonitoringForpurposesofthisARAP,deliverables(outputs)havebeenclearlyoutlinedintheEntitlementMatrixandtheAssetsRegisterwhichwillformthebasisforpaymentofcompensation.ProgresswillbemonitoredonthebasisofperiodicoutputsaspertheImplementationScheduleandAnnualWorkPlanwhileoutputswillbemonitoredonthebasisofactualnumberofPAPscompensated.

OutputmonitoringwillbereportedthroughperiodicreportsproducedbythePITandbackedupby signed consent certificates by PAPs. These reportswill form the basis for routine externalmonitoringbybothGOKagenciesandtheFinancier.

10.3 EXTERNALMONITORINGExternalmonitoringoftheARAPwillbeundertakenalongsidethatofotherprojectcomponents.It is expected that DoNMEDwillmount routinemonitoring in response to PIT reports. OtherExternalMonitoringwilltakeplaceasfollows:-

• MonitoringbytheFinancierInthecapacityofStrategicPartnertotheproject,theFinancierwill routinely fieldmonitoring teamswhowill screen theproject for overall adherence toconditionsforeffectiveness.

• PostProjectMonitoring:Inordertodeterminefinalimpactsoftheresettlementactivity,afinalevaluationcumanimpactassessmentwillbeundertaken6-12monthsafterconclusionofresettlementtoevaluatewhethertheintendedobjectiveswererealized.Forthis,suitablebaseline indicators related to income, assets, land ownership, expenditure pattern of keyactivities, housing conditions, access to basic amenities, demogaphic characteristics,indebtedness,etcwillbeapplied.Table10.2outlinesthecriteriathatwillbeappliedtowardsgauginganddocumentingprojectimpacts.

SupportforExternalMonitoring: It isexpectedthatDoNMEDinthecapacityof ImplementingAgencywill identifyandprocuretheservicesofacompetentagencytoundertakePostProjectMonitoring. Independent external evaluation will preferably be undertaken by an outsideresearch or consulting agency, university department or development NGO. The tasks of theexternalagencyareto:

• Verifyresultsofinternalmonitoring;

• Assesswhetherresettlementobjectiveshavebeenmet;specifically,whether

• Livelihoodsandlivingstandardshavebeenrestoredorenhanced;
