All the critical actions agreed during the restructuring mission (April 2013) have been met. The project is on track to meet its development objective (PDO). Particularly impressive progress was made with activities in the Authority for Legal and Property Affairs, as they completed renovations of 24 offices, contracted the delivery and installation of equipment and the networking, developed the Management Information System and started the training of the staff. On the other hand, the challenge of having the project uninterrupted funding ensured seems to remain. There are still serious budget constraints that impact project's day-to -day implementation.
