7 1. Introduction 1. Inception/External Monitoring Report: This is 2 nd monitoring report of section-ii of M-4 project. The 2 nd monitoring report has been provided by M/S Abdul Hameed, External Monitoring Agent (EMA), hired by National Highway Authority (NHA) to undertake external monitoring of the LARPs of, i) National Motorway M-4 Gojra - Shorkot Section Project and ii) National Motorway M-4 Gojra Shorkot - Khenewal Section Project_ Additional Finance to provide semiannual external monitoring reports to NHA and ADB. This report combines two parts of external monitoring contract, i.e. inception part and actual external monitoring work. The inception report provides a methodology of the study, work plan and deliverables, while the monitoring part presents the review and validation of implementation of LARP of Section - II and NHA s internal monitoring report (IMR) of November, The report offers (i) review and analysis of the implementation of LARP, (ii) payments made to DPs by category of impacts including the allowances and (iii) recommendations to address the issues. 1.1 Project Background 2. The Government of Pakistan (GoP) is concentrating on the development of road infrastructure and its major emphasis is on the construction of new motorways/ expressways and improvement of the efficiency of existing roads from single to dual carriageways. The construction of National Motorway M-4 Gojra - Shorkot Section Project and ii) National Motorway M-4 Gojra Shorkot - Khenewal Section Project_ Additional Finance is an effort towards this motive. The M-4 Motorway starts from the end point of M-3 near Faisalabad and ends at Sham Kot (after crossing (N-5) Lahore - Multan, Khanewal. 3. The alignment of the Motorway crosses through four districts of the Punjab Province (Faisalabad, Toba Tek Singh, Jhang and Khanewal. The total length of M-4 is 184 Km (from Faisalabad to Khenewal) is divided into 3 main sections as i) M-4 Section I (Faisalabad Gojra 58 Km), ii) M-4 Section II (Gojra Shorkot 62 Km) and iii) M-4 Section III (Shorkot Khanewal 64 Km). The construction of M-4 Motorway will link major cities of the country like Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore and Faisalabad with Multan and southern areas. 4. The National Highway Authority (NHA) is currently implementing with the financial assistance of Asian Development Bank (ADB). 1.2 Project Description 5. The Section II of M-4 has a total length of 62 km starting from Gojra Interchange at village 304 (chainage km) in Tehsil Gojra, District Toba Tek Singh (Punjab) and ending at village 7 Gagh (chainage km) in Tehsil Shorkot, District Jhang in Punjab, Pakistan. 6. Salient features of Project: Section-II is a green field project that has significant Land Acquisition and Resettlement (LAR) impacts. A LARP was prepared by NHA which is currently under implementation following its approval by ADB in July Figure

8 7. According to the approved LARP, the project design includes (i) construction of new 7.3 meter dual carriageway with New Jersey barrier as median; (ii) 3 interchanges; (iii) 5 bridges including 2 main bridges. The Motorway is fenced from both sides and 15 feet wide service road will also be provided for the use of local people. Total width of Right of Way (ROW) is 100 m for carriageway and 40 m for interchanges, which is acquired using the Land Acquisition Act (LAA) of

9 2 EMA and Scope of Work 8. Need for Monitoring: The ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009) requires the preparation and implementation of Land Acquisition and Resettlement Plans (LARP) which are to be monitored internally as well as externally. Internal monitoring is being undertaken by NHA/EALS (through Social Safeguard Management Consultant-SSMC) on a quarterly basis but external monitoring is done on a semi-annual basis by EMA, hired by NHA. This report has been prepared in accordance with NHA s requirement of an inception cum monitoring report. 9. The EMA was recruited by NHA in July 2016 for two projects, ii) National Motorway M-4 Gojra - Shorkot Section Project and iii) National Motorway M-4 Gojra Shorkot - Khenewal Section Project_ Additional Finance. EMA mobilized to M-4 project in January 31, 2017 to conduct external monitoring of implementation of LARP of National Motorway M-4 Gojra - Shorkot Section Project. The external monitoring report (EMR) is based on the review of reports, discussions with project officials and SSMC, field visits and independent investigations. It assesses the extent to which the LARP is being implemented and objectives of LARF and LARP being met. Major activities/work undertaken by EMA for preparation of this inception cum monitoring report include the following : a. Provide guidance to NHA project offices to improve the Resettlement unit's Management Information System (MIS), recommend improvements and review and very internal monitoring system and findings. b. Conduct independent monitoring of the project implementation including project implementing units (PIUs), local offices and consultations with village leaders, and DPs, especially women and vulnerable groups. c. Prepare independent report based on monitoring visits. d. Suggest major recommendations for remedial actions. e. Identify lessons learned. f. Maintain record for independent monitoring surveys, consultations/discussions with DPs in the field and their views about LARP, its preparation and implementation especially the compensation disbursement and resettlements impacts. g. Suggest remedial actions with time-based actions. h. Support capacity development efforts. i. Share the major lessons from the process both in terms of success and failure. 2.1 Monitoring Methodology and Strategy 10. The EMA will use the following monitoring methodology and strategy after a thorough review of the monitoring Terms of References (TORs) and the scope of work/expected outputs assigned by NHA in the monitoring contract. NHA requires undertaking of external monitor of the implementation of LARP of Section II of ongoing M-4 project, confirmation of payments made to the DPs as specified in the LARP, identification of any deviation observed in the field regarding implementation of LARP and construction work, and discuss actions taken or needed to be taken to address any gaps or deviations from the agreed LAR requirements. 11. The monitoring included the use of qualitative and quantitative data collection tools consistent with monitoring of LARP and monitoring indicators. Review of project information included project documents, LARPs, project design, baseline surveys and internal monitoring reports, efforts made to address the issue of payments impeded due to legal and administrative reasons, field site visits, and sample surveys also formed part of the overall monitoring methodology and strategy. 3

10 2.1.1 Review of Project Information 12. The consultant mobilized the project on January 31, 2017 which is taken as the cut off date for the purpose of monitoring and evaluation of implementation progress. Immediately after mobilization, the EMA reviewed the following documents and collected information needed for preparation of monitoring report of Section II project: a. Internal Monitoring Report b. LARP and baseline survey/ assessment reports/ data c. Project design and drawing d. Compensation payment data e. Details of consultation meetings f. Details of grievance redressed Field Visit 13. The field site visits were conducted in January 2017 to assess if there are any LAR related issues in acquired ROW and hold consultations with DPs other project stakeholders on the issues of payments to DPs and their resettlement and rehabilitation as provided in the LARPs of Section II. The DPs, whose payments are impeded due to several reasons, were analyzed for efforts needed and efforts NHA is making to resolve the issues. The site visits helped to prepare key activities requiring remedial actions which are explained in relevant sections of this report Sampling 14. In order to obtain feedback of DPs, the DPs were sampled for conducting consultations and interviews against interviewing all DPs as this requires spending enormous financial and human recourses in collection of data from all DPs. So the EMA and his team conducted consultations, and interviews with sample of DPs based on different impact categories (with the typology of the impacts). Accordingly, 20% of the villages (with the DPs of multiple project impacts including the vulnerable and women headed households) were consulted. Following approaches were also adopted in this regard; Rapid Appraisal Methods 15. Rapid appraisal method was used to quickly gather the views and feedback of DPs and other relevant stakeholders. Rapid appraisal methods used included: (i) key informant interview, (ii) focus group discussions, (iii) community group interview, and (iv) direct observation. The chairman of the DPC, DPs, and Women DPs were interviewed Participative Approach 16. The participatory approach adopted is as under; A two-ways communication approach was adopted and respondents were given the opportunity to express their views or any concerns about the project; Individual and group meetings were also held to identify and list down the current status of payments and any non-compliance Resettlement Monitoring Framework 17. The following monitoring and evaluation (M&E) framework was applied during the LARP monitoring & evaluation process: 4

The detail is available in the Annex-XX of the report. 2.2 Second Bi-Annual External Monitoring Report 23. This is 2nd bi-annual EMR of LARP implementation of Section II prepared by EMA based on mobilization date, January 31, 2017 which is considered as the cut-off- date. EMR reflects the review of the LARP, IMR for the period of September November, 2017, record of efforts NHA made to address the payment issues, consultation meetings and grievance redress mechanism, and consultations with PIU, SSMC, PMU, ADB and DPs including the women DPs Field Visits 24. The field visits were conducted in selected villages along with the ROW of section II and consultations were made with DPs in the randomly selected 22% villages (07 out of 32 villages), namely, i) 400 JB, ii) Kalo wala iii) 500 JB,iv) 398 JB, v) 396 JB, vi) 304, and vii) 505 JB (Annex-I). The focus group discussions were held with 50 DPs (including males and females) and 70 DPs were contacted for individual interview. The chairman of DPC, common DPs including the payment of meager amount and those DPs who have fully or partially received the compensation payment and un-paid DPs were the target of the visit. The list of persons visited is given in Annex-I to III Approach for Data Collection 25. The information/data was collected from the primary and secondary sources. The primary data was collected through field visits; focus group discussion, individual and group meetings with DPs and in case of further clarification, the DPs were contacted telephonically. The meetings were held with PIU and SSMC in data collection and verification. The second source information (reflected mostly in section 2.1.1) was collected from the SSMC, PIU and ADB. 7

14 2.2.3 Types of Collected Data/Information 26. The types of data collected are discussed as under; Sectoral wise compensation Payment Data; DPs awareness about the consultation meetings; DPs awareness about the Grievance redress Mechanism; DPs views about the usages of compensation amount; DPs willingness about receiving of the meager amount compensation; Capture the DPs issues about the compensation payment and on-going civil work 3 Project Impacts and Status of Implementation 27. The total land required for the project is acres as reflected in the LARP. Among the total land, acres are the private while acres are the government land. As per LARP, the government land is completely barren and no private use of the land is reported, i.e., with no tenants, encroachers or squatters. In addition, carriageway comprised on acres while the interchanges are constructed on 57.8 acres of land. The award has been made for the entire private land. The implementation of LARPs started in July 2015 after ADB approved the LARP. 28. The detail of the impacts and compensation disbursement is discussed in Table 3.1 below while the village wise summary is reflected from Annex-V to XVII. 8

17 3.1 Implementation Analysis 28. The table indicates that by 30 st November 2016, overall disbursement of compensation (land and non-land assets) is 96% (Rs 895 million from the total Rs. 928 million). The resettlement and rehabilitation funds have been disbursed to 76% DPs as reflected in Fig 3.1. NHA/PIU intend to complete the compensation disbursement until March, NHA/PIU assured to complete it until May EMA expects a delay in disbursement of payments due to the amount of payments being meager besides there are other factors such as transfer of land rights, absentee DPs and minors, etc which will cause delay in payments until these issues are resolved. 29. These payments are likely to delay because the DPs are reluctant to open Fig 3.1: Payment Disbursement 24 Paid DPs 96 4 Amount Disbursed Paid Unpaid bank accounts through which they can be compensated. Unfortunately the cost of opening bank accounts is higher than small amounts of compensation and the DPs appear not interested in opening up their bank accounts. The DPs are of the view that they should be provided cash compensation in their villages without requiring them to open the bank accounts (see report about DPs views about meager amounts at Annex IV). 30. The category wise payment status of DPs is reflected in Fig 3.2 Figure indicates that the overall 88 percent of the DPs have been received their compensation payment and other assistances in the form of allowances. The figure also shows that the significant majority have received their payment for the loss of their crop, structures and trees as compared to land and allowances. 31. The section below provides analysis into the disbursement of compensation by category of impact, reasons responsible for delay and actions required to complete the payments. 71 Fig 3.2: Category wise Payment Status of DPs Land Crop Structure Trees Allowance Overall 3.2 Land Compensation and Factors Responsible for Delay 32. The total private land required for the Section-II was 1, acres which has been fully acquired. Payment of land compensation has been achieved by 96.73% (Rs million out of total million) and about 76% DPs (2678 DPs of total 3502 DPs) have been paid so far. The payment to remaining 24% DPs will be made once the legal and administrative impediments are resolved. 12

18 3.3 Meager Amount of Land Payment: There are 379 DPs who have meager amount of compensation. These DPs also have the legal and administrative impediments. However, their payment for meager amountis slow due to the requirement of opening up of bank account by DPs. This is a procedural requirement under the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 in which compensation vouchers are issued to DPs for depositing into their bank account from where the DPs can obtain cash compensation. The EMA found (through field visits, meeting with PIU and DPs and review of IMR and on-going survey records (completed in all 32 villages) that the DPs prefer obtaining direct cash compensation given to them in their villages by NHA because the cost of opening a bank account is higher than the amount of compensation itself. 3.4 Other Reasons of Delay in Payments 33. The EMA found few other reasons, as reported in internal monitoring reports and further reviewed in the field, delaying the compensation that are as below: Inheritance Mutation Absent DPs, i.e., not traceable Lack of ownership titled to DPs DPs have gone under litigation Underage DPs (Juvenile) 34. The Table 5 below indicates the number of DPs whose payments are delayed to various afore-mentioned reasons. Table: 3.2 Reasons for Delay in Payment Unpaid DPs Meager amount Lack of Record Transfer Absent DPs Underage DPs DPs under Litigation/lack of title Actual DPs are 824 although some of them are encountered with multiple impediments. The DPs of meager amount are 379 but they are having other impediments. 3.5 Payment of Meager Amount 35. NHA (through LAC) is seeking the advice of BOR to make the payment of meager amount. The letter sent to BOR is Annexed D of the report. It is suggested that NHA continues to follow up with Punjab board of revenue in identifying an appropriate compensation mechanism which may facilitate payments the payment of meager amount to DPs expeditiously. EMA also suggest that PIU should also facilitate the DPs of meager amount in resolving (through all concerned) their other impediments to ensure their 100% compensation payment. 36. EMA also recommends that SSMC in consultation with LAC, M-4 team at Faisalabad, Director/Assistant Director Land and ADB (for supervising the implementation to ensure consistency of procedures adopted with ADB s policy) to formulate a mechanism of cash compensation directly provided to DPs in their villages, obtain approval from NHA management and plan to make payments to DPs to comply with SPS s requirement of 100% payment to DPs. The progress of payment should be provided in the monthly progress report, and QIMR, to be validated by the EMA. 13

19 37. Transfer of Government Land: In Section II, about acres of total land acquired is owned by government. However as per PIU, it is state land and the process of transfer of government land to NHA is under process and is expected to be transferred in May As per PIU, the letter by LAC (the copy is not available) has been forwarded to DC (who is state representative) for transfer of state land. The following actions are proposed regarding compensation of government owned lands: The head of acquiring agency (NHA) will write a letter to head of the department owing the land. For instance, here in this case the letter will be addressed to BOR; The land identification record indicating on the map along with the Mouza and Kasra numbers will be enclosed with the letter; The head of the department to whom the land will be acquired will nominate the focal person to reach on consensus with the acquiring agency The acquiring agency will pay the compensation to concerned department based on the prevailed government rate or to make the negotiation for the transfer of land; The acquiring agency will get the transfer letter/ NOC from the concerned department on giving the land for the project. 38. The EMA recommends that NHA/PIU/SSMC should make the intensive follow up with the concerned department and the process must be monitored and reported in the IMR. 3.6 Payment of Non-land Assets 39. The status of payment of non-land assets as reviewed and verified by EMA is summarized below: 3.7 Payment for the Structures: 40. A total of 118 structures including residential, commercial, cattle yards, community/public structures and miscellaneous structures including water resources owned by 118 DPs who were entitled to receive Rs million as compensation. The payments have been made to 97% (114) of the DPs while the remaining Rs million will be disbursed among 4 DPs once the impediments are resolved. NHA/PIU is doing its utmost efforts to resolve the impediments to complete the 100% payment to DPs. EMA has seen the efforts made by the PIU (through the SSMC) to complete the payments to unpaid DPs, hence it is recommended that such efforts should be continued, monitored and reported in the IMR. 3.8 Payment for the Crops: 41. A total of Rs million to be paid to 463 DPs. Approximately 99% ( million) of the funds has been disbursed to 99% DPs (459 out of 463). The remaining 1% (4 DPs) is still waiting for the payment. The compensation payment is delayed due to small amounts of payments to individual DPs (termed as meager and other legal and administrative impediments as reflected in the internal monitoring reports) as discussed earlier. 42. However NHA has a plan to complete the crop compensation to DPs up to the end of May 2017, which requires close monitoring and reporting in the IMR (validated by EMA). 14

20 3.9 Payment for the Trees: 43. An amount of Rs million to be paid to 410 DPs on account of loss of trees. However, as per latest internal monitoring report and field verification, 99.9% (Rs million) has been paid to 99% (407) DPs. NHA/PIU is trying to complete the payment at its earliest. 44. NHA confirmed to complete the payments by end of May EMA recommends that this to be monitored and reported in periodic internal monitoring reports by NHA/PIU through SSMC Payment of Allowances - Shifting, Vulnerable, Employment, replacement cost, Additional Crop, Electricity and Livelihood Rehabilitation Allowances: 45. In case of allowances payment for Section-II, 5169 DPs had to be paid an amount of Rs million. However, as per field situation, 71% DPs (3655 in number) have received 90% (Rs million) of allowance on account of assistance for livelihood restoration, vulnerability, employment loss, electricity, house rent and relocation assistance. The remaining 29% DPs (1514) are still waiting for 10% (Rs million) payment. NHA assured to complete the remaining payments by end of May EMA recommends that this is to be monitored and reported in periodic internal monitoring reports by NHA/PIU/SSMC. 46. In term of allowance category, the resettlement allowance, a total of Rs million to be paid to 3502 DPs. Out of which, Rs million (92.50%) have been paid to 2488 DPs (71.05%). The remaining 1014 DPs (28.95%) are yet to be paid an amount of Rs million (7.50%). Among the unpaid DPs, 824 DPs are facing legal and administrative impediments while the leftover payable DPs in this category are 190 only. Similarly, replacement cost allowance was disbursed to 621 DPs and remaining 385 DPs are yet to be paid. Among the total unpaid DPs, the payments of 272 DPs are delayed owing to having legal and administrative impediments. Hence, EMA recommends that NHA/PIU to facilitate the DPs to resolve the legal and administrative impediments so as to confirm the 100% payment. The process must be monitored and reported in the IMR. 47. Regarding the additional crop allowance, 463 DPs were to be paid an amount of Rs million.

The remaining 86 DPs (18.94%) are yet to be provided a total amount of Rs million (13.56%). 48. PIU/ SSMC assured to complete the payment until May 2017, however, for those DPs who are facing the legal and administrative impediments, NHA/PIU/SSMC will facilitate to resolve their issues at the earliest to ensure the 100% payment.

21 4 Institutional Arrangements for Land and Resettlement Activities 49. The NHA has kept all the institutional arrangements as mentioned in the LARP on board for addressing the land acquisition and resettlement requirements. The detail is discussed as under; 4.1 Environment Afforestation Land and Social (EALS) 50. NHA established an Environment Afforestation Land and Social (EALS) wing at Headquarter. The EALS is headed by the General Manager (GM), assisted by the land, environment and social staff. The EALS is responsible for preparing, implementing, monitoring, disclosing, and submitting reports to ADB. 4.2 Project Implementation Unit (PIU) 48. NHA has established a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) under the General Manager M-4 in Faisalabad. The PIU presently comprises of a Project Director, Assistant Director (Engineering), Deputy Director (Land) and Land Acquisition Collector (LAC) with support of land staff. PIU is responsible to prepare and implement the safeguard documents (through SSMC) and submit to ADB though (EALS). 4.3 Grievances Redress Mechanism 49. A grievance redress mechanism has been established in the project since September 21, 2015, copy of notification is not provided. The Grievance Redress Committee is headed by the Director Land and the members are Assistant Director (land), LAC (M-4) assisted by concerned Patwari, Resettlement Specialist and Social Mobilizer (male & female). 50. Presently, 41 complaints were received from the DPs during the reporting period. The detail is given in Table 6. Among 41 registered complaints, 32 complaints were resolved while only 9 complaints are still lying pending. These registered complaints are mostly related to the compensation payment, assessment of prices by the Provincial Revenue Departments while the others are pertinent to civil work. Most of the complaints also related to assessment of the prices. Table 4.1: Details of Registered Complaints for Section-II S# Nature of Complaints Compensation payment issue Access to watercourse Construction of subway Reported Complaints Number of complaint resolved Total Remarks 7 complaints are not resolved yet and are under process The un-resolved complaints (2) are under process. 51 EMA also found (during the field visits) that most of the DPs complaints pertain to the assessment of prices by the Provincial Revenue Department. The complainants have been informed that the prices were assessed/ fixed on the basis of average of the transactions carried out during the last one year and including an independent land valuation study that they were allowed an opportunity by the Land Collector to record the grievances prior to announcement of award. The complainant still can approach the Referee courts for revision of prices. 16

22 52 The verbal complaints were made in the visited villages regarding the access route, under-pass and repairing of dismantled track, though the SSMC staff noted the complaints during the meeting and assured to the local community to take up the issue with the project director and give you the feedback. EMA recommends that PIU/SSMC and the contractors to take up the complaints (those are related to civil work) on regular basis. The process must be monitored and reported in the IMR. 53 In addition, during the visit, i) Sajjad Haider s/o Muhammad Afzal of village 500 Padrianwala and ii) chairman DPC of 396 JB complained that their rooms (tube well and cattle shed respectively) was not included in the compensation list. EMA recommends that PIU through SSMC investigate the matters and process should be reported in the forthcoming IMR. 4.4 Formation of Displaced Persons Committees (DPCs) 55 EMA found through IMR, discussion with the PIU, SSMC and DPs during the field visits that DPC (male) exists in each village. These committees are taken on-board by the project staff in addressing the grievances of the DPs at village level and also coordinating with the PIU in dispute resolution and for the smooth running of project activities. EMA also found that the women committees are existed at village level but are not existed in most of the villages of the project area, eventually the women in those villages are not familiar with their compensation payment status and on-going project activities. 56 EMA also found that few DPs like Shakeela Bano of Chak 304 JB, Ameer and Abdul Khaliq of Chak 400, do not know about the DPC/its composition in their villages. The female DP are unaware where the female DPC is not exited while in case of male ignorant, the DPs were not frequently contacted and as per PIU field teams were busy on section-iii regarding the compensation disbursement. EMA recommends that all the DPs including the females must be contacted regularly and the frequency of the meeting should be increased. This process must be monitored and reported, including the list of contact persons DPs in the IMR. 4.5 Social Safeguards Management Consultant (SSMC) 57 In order to effectively implement the LARP and address the social safeguard issues, NHA employed SSMC. SSMC is staffed by Resettlement Specialist, Gender Specialist, MIS/ M&E and Social Mobilizers and is assisting NHA/ PIU in the LARP implementation and monitoring and capacity building in LAR. SSMC staffs is performing well, however there is need training regarding the safeguard requirements of loan and procedural matters of LAA pertaining to disbursement of payment to DPs. 58 The EMA recommends a refresher workshop for SSMC and PIU on payment related procedures and issues of LAA, SPS 2009 and LARP provisions/implementation requirements of the project. It is good to know that PIU and SSMC already on the same page to organize the training workshop, as in the presence of EMA, PIU (Mr. Imran) asked the SSMC to organize the training workshop and Mr. Shaukat assured to plan it soon. 59 SSMC should also document best practice case studies on resettlement and rehabilitation, compensation delivery, consultations and grievance management, employment creation and productive utilization of compensation money, etc 60 EMA also found that management information system is now functioning well. The information related to project is available in the system. However, there is need to centrally 17

23 control the system, so that the entire information is available at the main system instead the information are available in bits and pieces in different locations Delay in Salary for SSMC s staff 61 EMA also found that the staffs are not receiving their salaries timely, i.e., their salaries are delayed by 2-3 months. PIU reported that the invoices are submitted late by SSMC despite the time and again request. EMA recommends analyzing the contract made between NHA and SSMC to find out payment arrangement, mode and timing of payment as to why payments are so delayed. In addition, NHA/PIU will ensure that all the SSMC staffs receive salaries on the dates as specified in the contract and this should be monitored internally by PIU and validated by EMA. 18

24 5 Consultation and Information Disclosure 64. PIU is conducting consultations with DPs since the LARP planning and implementation. The consultations focused on the compensation assessment, eligibility criterion and entitlements, and compensation disbursement process. These meetings are organized at the village level. A total of 46 (32 M, 14 F) consultation meetings were held in the reporting period and 233 (182 M, 51 F) DPs participated in the village level meetings. 65. The information disclosure has been well achieved by NHA through SSMC. LARP and project information brochures have been disclosed to all DPs. The DPs seem quite aware about their entitled compensation and livelihood restoration allowances and procedures of payments. 66. In terms of gender perspective, the LARP also identified the women DPs regarding the loss of their assets. Like, male DPs the women are also receiving their payment. 67. The consultation meetings are very essential in term of information sharing and disclosure. EMA found that the meetings are not held in each village during the reporting period, even none of the meeting was held in September, 2016, though PIU responded that the entire team was deputed on section-iii of M-4 owing to face the urgency to complete the compensation disbursement process. EMA recommends that these meetings should be organized in routine in the entire villages of the project area, so that the DPs and local people know about their compensation payment and ongoing project civil activities, as in few villages the DPs have concerns related to civil work so that can be addressed through the proper forum/grc. These meetings should be monitored, documented and reported in the IMR. 6 Employment Opportunities 68. The LARP provisioned for employment of local laborers and members of AFs. PIU has been follow up with contractors in providing job opportunities to locals. The EMA visited the project sites and found that the local people are working with the contractor. As per PIU, total employees are 2357 and out of them 57 are Chinese. However, the employee data in term of local employment is not updated yet but PIU assured to monitor the local work force and will be reported in the forth-coming IMR. EMA recommends that PIU (through SSMC) should monitor the direct (through employment) and indirect (in the form of running tea stalls near the camp office etc) project based livelihood sources for the DPs. The database must be developed for all such DPs and figure regularly reported in the IMR. 7 NHA s Good Faith Efforts 69. The EMA minutely reviewed the IMR (for the period September November 2016), the status of compensation to DPs & documents provided by PIU, visited the project sites, held discussion with DPs and detailed discussions with SSMC (Team Leader, MIS Expert, M&E Expert, Social Mobilizers), PIU GM-M4, Director and Deputy Director Land. EMA considers that the efforts made by NHA (Annex-XVIII) for the disbursement of payment to DPs (where the payments unfortunately found to be stuck due to some legal and administrative impediments) seems to be consistent with the ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 related to disbursement of compensation and commencement of civil work. The efforts are discussed as under; a) Contacted DPs of meager amount and informed them about efforts being made to compensate them in cash. A survey by PIU (through SSMC) was conducted to capture the views. 19

25 b) NHA is approaching (through LAC) the BOR and district government to seek the advice to give the cash compensation for meager amount. c) NHA/PIU/SSMC is working closely with revenue department to get the land transfer record corrected/updated following which the DPs will be compensated and verified by EMA. d) NHA and SSMC are making efforts by facilitating DPs of obtaining CNIC. They will be compensated after they are provided with CNIC and their bank accounts are corrected. e) NHA has issued public notices in local newspapers to untraceable DPs and fixed public notices in villages and advertised contact details of officials who the DPs can contact for payments. 8 Stakeholders Consultations and assessment of DPs Feedback 70. A proper questionnaire was established to assess the views of the DPs regarding the compensation payment, uses of the compensation amount and detail is reflected in the Table 8.1. A total of 120 DPs were contacted during the field visits. Among the total contacted DPs, 93 have been received their complete compensation payment and livelihood assistance (in the form of allowances) while 27 DPs were unpaid and their payment was delayed to legal and administrative impediments. The DPs responses are discussed in the below Table 8.1. Table 8.1: Responses of the Contacted DPs S. # Indicators Number of Respondents 1 Status of awareness regarding the compensation payment and livelihood assistances Percentage of the Respondents Constructed the houses Arrange the marriages of their children Households use (in routine expenses) Purchased land Established the business Miscellaneous use (paid back the loan to bank, buy motorbike, cow & Tractor) 8 Compensation rate was assessed on lower side 9 DPs wants the payment for the meager amount Awareness level about the GRM Table indicates that 100% DPs have the awareness about their compensation payment and livelihood assistances. The DPs are generally happy with compensation payments and they made the good use of compensation payment like, 15% of the DPs purchased alternate land to continue their farming activities, 22% of the DPs constructed new houses, 6% DPs started business, 8% arranged the marriages of their children, 24% of the DPs spent their compensation amount on the routine households expenses and remaining 18% of the DPs spent the amount on miscellaneous expenses like paid back their loan to bank, buy motorbike, cow and Tractor. 72. Survey also reveals that all the contacted 120 DPs were not satisfied over the prices by the Provincial Revenue Department. The complainants have been informed that the prices were assessed/ fixed on the basis of average of the transactions carried out during 20

26 the last one year and including an independent land valuation study that they were allowed an opportunity by the Land Collector to record the grievances prior to announcement of award. 73. All 8 contact DPs wants to be compensated in cash but not through district treasury vouchers. NHA in consultation with district revenue authority/deputy Commissioner is in the process of setting up the issue of meager amount to make the cash payments to DPs. 74. As per field investigation, 85% DPs have the knowledge about the GRC while only 15% are unaware about the grievance redress system. As per PIU these people do not have any complaint related to the compensation disbursement hence are least interest regarding the GRC. 75. The people of the Chak 494, 495 & 496 showed the serious concerns over the available underpass that is not spacious to pass the sugarcane trolley, as this is mostly the sugarcane grown area and access to sugarcane factory will become hard in this way. 76. Sajjad Haider s/o Muhammad Afzal of village 500 Padrianwala Mouza Kalowala complained that the room of his tube well was not included in the compensation list, although it was located in the project area before the cut-off-date. 77. The chairman DPC of 396 JB complained that his room was not included in the compensation list despite located in the project area prior to cut-off-date. 21

27 9 Conclusions 78. Based on the review and field verification, the EMA concludes that land for carriageway and interchanges have been fully acquired. 79. Likewise compensation disbursement of carriageway and 3 interchanges has been completed by 96% (Rs 895 million from the total Rs. 928 million) to 76% DPs. 80. NHA has generally demonstrated good faith efforts in its attempt to complete 100% payment to all the DPs. However due to some legal and administrative impediments there are DPs whose payment is either slow or stuck. The efforts for the disbursement of payment to DPs (where the payments unfortunately found to be stuck due to some legal and administrative impediments) seems to be consistent with the ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 related to disbursement of compensation and initiation of construction work. 81. The institutional arrangements and consultation and grievance redress mechanisms as mentioned in the approved LARP are fully in place and generally functioning well. However needs improvement in the functioning of GRM, DPC and SSMC s staff needs trainings for an achievable SSMC work plan, improve outreach to DPs, timely reporting of periodical reports, fully functional management information system. 82. Most of the DPs showed their concerns pertain to the assessment of prices by the Provincial Revenue Departments. The complainants have been informed that the prices were assessed/ fixed on the basis of average of the transactions carried out during the last one year and including an independent land valuation study that they were allowed an opportunity by the Land Collector to record the grievances prior to announcement of award. 83. Status of awareness among the DPs regarding the compensation payment and livelihood assistances was found 100%. The DPs are generally happy with compensation payments and they made the good use of compensation payment like, i) purchased alternate land, ii) constructed a new houses, iii) started business, iv) Paid back the bank loan and vi) arranged the marriages of their children. 84. DPs of meager amount want the cash compensation instead of receiving the compensation vouchers. In addition, these DPs are having other legal and administrative impediments. 85. The people of the Chak 494, 495 & 496 showed the serious concerns over the available underpass that is not spacious to pass the sugarcane trolley, as this is mostly the sugarcane grown area and access to sugarcane factory will become hard in this way. 86. Sajjad Haider s/o Muhammad Afzal of village 500 Padrianwala Mouza Kalowala complained that the room of his tube well was not included in the compensation list, although it was located in the project area before the cut-off-date. 87. The chairman DPC of 396 JB complained that his cattle shed room was not included in the compensation list despite located in the project area prior to cut-off-date. 22

28 10 Recommendations 88. The EMA makes following recommendations to address the payment and nonpayment related issues of DPs: a. The unpaid DPs due to meager amounts need to be paid in cash as per their preference as BOR standing order 28 (Punjab) allows cash compensation to DPs in villages. b. NHA need to continue its efforts to make the payment to DPs of meager compensation and also continues follow up with Punjab board of revenue for a possibility of appropriate compensation mechanism which may facilitate payments to DPs of meager amount expeditiously. c. SSMC in coordination with PIU and revenue department must also continue to facilitate payment of DPs who have problems with CNIC, correction in names/titles and inheritance. Progress on these cases needs to be reported in monitoring reports and verified by EMA; d. PIU is making concerted efforts to address the issues related to compensation disbursement, but needs continued support from SSMC s social mobilizers in the field. PIU may also provide guidance to SSMC s SMs about this can be improved. e. EMA recommends analyzing the contract made between NHA and SSMC to find out payment arrangement, mode and timing of payment as to why payments are so delayed. A joint visit of PIU, SSMC and ADB (for supervises the implementation to ensure consistency of procedures adopted with ADB s policy) should jointly review the agreement to find out payment arrangement, mode and timing of payment as to why payments are so delayed. f. Consultations with DPs should be continued to facilitate them in resolving any grievances and issues pertinent to payment of meager amounts on other payments pending due CNIC and problems with land records, etc. g. PIU/SSMC need to make the follow up for the transfer of government/state land ( acres) to NHA. h. PIU/SSMC should investigate and address the issues/concerns of the DPs highlighted in the section 8. The process must be monitored and reported in the IMR. i. PIU/SSMC should increase the frequency of the meetings in each village so as the DPs should get awareness about the on-going project activities especially the presence of the grievance redress system. 23
