BACKGROUND
3
Investment of €52bn under the NDP 2000-06
Integration of four Horizontal Principles
equal opportunities social inclusion
rural development the environment
Mid-term evaluations of Operational Programmes
Mid-term review process

MTE ISSUES TO BE EVALUATED
4
Assess how the HPs are addressed
Assess how the HPs are reported on
Examine the extent to which the HPs are captured by indicators
Express a view as to the likely impact on the HPs

APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
5
Reviewed programme literature
Examined monitoring indicators and other data
Consulted with relevant stakeholders
Assessed Measures/Sub-measures against TOR criteria
![Page 6: 1 Incorporating New Concepts into Programme Planning: the Experience of the Horizontal Principles in the NDP Friday 24 th September 2004 IEN Conference.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022072014/56649e865503460f94b88d45/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
KEY MTE FINDINGS ON THE HPs
6
Integration Difficulties
Poor quality and unclear ex-ante analysis of the relevance of the HPs
Poor quality and formulaic reporting of progress on HPs
Absence of indicators or other data to capture progress
Lack of understanding of goals and how to integrate
Lack of guidance or support to implementing bodies
Difficult to make substantive conclusions on impact
Way Forward
Prioritise a smaller number of Measures for greater integration effort

UNIT’S APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
7
Assessed each Measure against five criteria
Produced an initial list of measures most relevant to each principle
Held consultations
Re-examined certain Measures
Refined prioritisation lists

UNIT’S RESULTS
8
Most Measures selected meet at least three of the five criteria
Few Measures were selected under more than two principles
All the measures under the NDP/CSF are selected for examination
under at least one horizontal principle.

LESSONS
Need to undertake detailed ex-ante analysis
Relevance, prioritisation, objectives, possible actions, measurement
Need to effectively incorporate into programme design and monitoring
arrangements
Reporting procedures, indicators, capacity (data collection, analysis), “stick and
carrot”
Need to plan for future evaluations
Appropriate evaluation framework, evaluate “process” and “impacts”.
