EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 9th Annual Joint Water Sector Review Meeting (JWSR) held in Dar es Salaam in 15th - 16th October, 2014 is perhaps the most important event in the dialogue mechanism held once a year. Its objective is to review implementation of the WSDP including status of execution of various planned activities implemented under the Programme, to have joint look at current position of the Programme, and to address outstanding implementation challenges. In the course of its deliberations, the sector review meeting plans setting the course for next actions, and provide guidance to the water sector by identifying the priority sector interventions. Also the level of accomplishment of agreed undertakings are reviewed, which provide the basis for sector planning and operations in the immediate future. The meeting drew 151 participants from the Ministry of Water, PMO-RALG, MoHSW, MoEVT, MoF, Development Partners, Civil Society organisations, Basin Water Offices, Regional Secretariats, Local Government Authorities, Urban and Sanitation Authorities for Regional, District Headquarters and Townships, National Water Projects and the Private sector. Operationalization of Tanzania’s Development Vision 2025 where it concerns the water sector, is done through sector programmes, through MKUKUTA, and the Five Year Development Plan, with the aim of ensuring that the country meets its Millennium Development Goal (MDG) in water sector. The Government formulated the National Water Policy (NWP) and the National Water Sector Development Strategy (NWSDS), and based on these prepared the Water Sector Development Programme (WSDP) launched in July 2007. Since then, two water legislations were enacted, i.e. the Water Resources Management Act Number 11 of 2009 and the Water Supply and Sanitation Act Number 12 of 2009. The NWSDS implements the policy directives by charting out activities selected for implementation countrywide. These logical development frameworks ensure appropriate coordination and execution of interventions. The Ministry undertakes periodic reviews of the status of implementation of the various interventions in the water sector, guided by the WSDP MoU requirements agreed between the Government and DPs. It is from this perspective that the 9th JWSR was held in October 2014, as one of the key events in the WSDP dialogue calendar. The WSDP Phase I started in July 2007 and ended on June 2014 with revised funding commitment reaching US$ 1,438,613,874. Actual disbursements amounted to US$ 1,243,290,727. The official launching of Phase II was done on 22nd September 2014 by the Hon. Minister of Water at the premises of the Ministry. The Programme’s main goal is to strengthen sector institutions for integrated water resources management and improve access to clean and safe water supply and sanitation services in Tanzania. In his opening speech, the Minister of Water detailed the achievements of the Programme Phase I and the challenges encountered, and he highlighted priorities and expectations for a smooth implementation of Phase II. Water sources availability is an issue not only in the urban, but also in rural areas. Protection and conservation of water sources needs to be prioritized during planning and budgeting. The finalization of IWRMD Plans is key to ensuring an integrated and coordinated cross-sector demand management and good water governance. There is serious need to ensure that the IWRMDPs for 6 out of the 9 Basins are completed by December as promised, and that the
P a g e | 5
foundation is laid for ensuring they are prepared in the remaining 3 basins. IWRM needs a broader stakeholder involvement at the different levels. More emphasis should be given to communication and outreach, especially through documenting lessons learnt from WSDP I and its success stories, as a way of building up momentum for WSDP II. Of equally importance, as was repeatedly highlighted during the review meetings, is the issue of climate change adaptation and mitigating actions to be taken, and these must be given more prominence during dialoging and consensus building. The Big Results Now (BRN) agenda is enforcing higher levels of accountability through the monitoring of well-defined time-bound Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). This initiative has already resulted in revolutionary performance improvements, with significant increases in the number of functioning water points, as well as increased numbers of beneficiaries. The BRN interventions have been prominently attached to the rural water supply component, thereby focusing on the areas of expansion of existing rural infrastructures, rehabilitation of dis-functional water points, construction of new infrastructures, and ensuring sustainability through establishment of effective Operation and Maintenance (O&M) systems for community water supply and sanitation schemes, through Community Operated Water Supply Organisations (COWSOs). During the JWSR meeting, the CSOs acknowledged progress and efforts made by the government on sanitation and hygiene interventions. The National Sanitation Campaign (NSC) is now being implemented in 162 LGAs and is making steady progress. There is however a need to expedite the improvement of the communication and collaboration between MoW, MoHSW, MoEVT and PMO-RALG. Under the WSDP, budgetary allocation are provided for improved household sanitation initiatives and School WASH interventions, as parts of the National Sanitation Campaign (NSC). It was emphasized, that such kind of collaborations between the different Government Institutions is praiseworthy, and that this needs to be nurtured and strengthened for an even more efficient and effective implementation of WSDP II. The new PPP policy and strategy, supported by Act and regulations, are making it possible to attract non-conventional financing sources for investments in the water sector. It was pointed out that already US$ 600 million of investments are under negotiations with private sector, which include supplying water to Muheza, Karagwe, Mtwara MC, Arusha MC, and rehabilitation of Wanging’ombe and HTM National Projects to mention a few. It was also revealed that some IAs did not come up with suitable PPP proposals as requested, which highlighted the need for appropriate capacity building and awareness creation on the issue of PPP. On the other hand, there is no shortage of private companies to undertake the implementation of water projects, as, for example, 1,589 projects were implemented by local private companies in rural areas. During the JWSR meeting new Undertakings were discussed and agreed upon for execution by the respective components. The guidance provided by defined sector priorities in the form of agreed Undertakings, are the key operational elements that inform the sector planning and that are the basis for the budgeting processes. These are important tools in the water sector for setting the course towards achieving the goals and targets set in MKUKUTA, MDGs and the TDV 2025.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
Introduction
The Water Sector Development Programme (WSDP) Phase I started in July 2007 and ended on June 2014. The official launching of Phase II was done on 22nd September 2014 by the Hon. Minister of Water. The Programme’s main goal is to strengthen sector institutions for integrated water resources management and improve access to clean and safe water supply and sanitation services in Tanzania. The advancement of this comprehensive framework for sustainable development of country’s water resources is part of recent sector reforms and is based on a sector-wide approach to planning (SWAP). This setup enables and reinforces the execution of water interventions through laid-down institutional arrangements and various dialogue mechanisms. The 9th Annual Joint Water Sector Review Meeting was held at Kunduchi Beach Hotel in Dar es Salaam in 15th - 16th October, 2014. It is an important event in the dialogue mechanism of the WSDP and held once a year. The objective of these meetings is to review implementation of the WSDP, including status of execution of various planned activities implemented under the Programme, to have joint look at the current position of the Programme, to address implementation challenges, and chart the way-forward for Phase II of the Programme. In the course of its deliberations, the sector review plans the course of actions by providing guidance to the water sector by determining the sector’s priority interventions, including the level of accomplishment of agreed Undertakings that provide the basis for sector planning and operations in the immediate future. During the meeting new undertakings were discussed and agreed upon for execution by the respective components. The guidance provided by defined sector priorities in the form of agreed Undertakings, are the key operational elements that inform the sector planning and that are the basis for the budgeting processes. These are important tools in the water sector for setting the course towards achieving the goals and targets set in MKUKUTA, MDGs and the TDV 2025 This report presents a brief account of proceedings of the review forum. The forum attracted over 151 participants. Annex # 13 provides the list of the registered participants, which were composed of representatives from the Ministry of Water (MoW), Line Ministries (PMO-RALG, MoHSW, MoEVT and MoF), Development Partners (DPs), Civil Society organisations (CSOs), Basin Water Offices (BWOs), Regional Secretariats, Local Government Authorities, Urban and Sanitation Authorities for Regional, District Headquarters and Townships, National Water Projects, the Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA), and the Private sector.
Background Concerns about appropriate institutional arrangements for water resources management and development has taken paramount importance in the sectoral reform process of the country. Interventions are sought to ensure conservation and control, protection of resource base, ensuring equitable and sustainable use of water, as well as management of water related conflicts. Water
P a g e | 7
is accorded a special place given its unique life support function. The Tanzania Development Vision (TDV) 2025 (URT 1999) specifies “universal access to safe water“ as one of the specific achievements, aimed at high quality livelihood. The vision amplifies this by pointing out the main challenges that this sector faces, such as improving access to clean and safe water at a reasonably short distance, ensuring adequate funding for maintaining water services and increased utilization of water services (URT 2000). Operationalization of TDV 2025 aspirations for the water sector is done through the sector programmes MKUKUTA (URT 2010) and the Five Year Development Plan (URT 2011). These aim at ensuring that the country meets, in addition to TDV target, critical milestones such as the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) target in water, of reducing by half, by 2015, the 1990 proportion of population without access to potable water. In order to meet the national aspirations, the Government formulated the National Water Policy (NAWAPO 2002), the National Water Sector Development Strategy (NWSDS 2006-2015), and prepared the Water Sector Development Programme (WSDP 2006-2025). Two water legislations were enacted, the Water Resources Management Act Number 11 of 2009 and the Water Supply and Sanitation Act Number 12 of 2009. The NWSDS implements the policy directives by charting out priority activities for implementation countrywide through the WSDP with its sector-wide approach to planning (SWAP). The WSDP Phase II has five components: (i) Water Resources Management implemented in all 9 Basin Water Offices; (ii) Rural Water Supply and Sanitation implemented in all 168 Local Government
Authorities; (iii) Urban Water Supply and Sewerage implemented in all 23 regional headquarters;
DAWASA/DAWASCO, 106 district/ townships’ utilities and 8 National Projects; (iv) Sanitation and Hygiene implemented under the coordination of MoHSW and MoEVT
and implemented in all LGAs; and (v) Programme Delivery Support for ensuring sustained institutional and staff competence
towards efficient programme implementation.
The Ministry of Water undertakes periodic reviews of status of implementation in the various aspects and components of the water sector as per WSDP MoU requirements between the Government and DPs. It is in this context that also this year’s JWSR was held. Presentation of the annual Water Sector Status Report (WSSR) for 2013/2014 is amongst the major agenda points for this forum. It highlights what transpired during implementation of WSDP since its commencement in July 2007 up to June 2014. This sector review meeting was an evaluation of the past achievements and challenges, but it also informed about the programming of WSDP Phase II (2014/2015 -2018/2019). The rest of these proceedings highlight the main issues arising from the sector review meetings. Section two brings out details of the Meeting, while section three delineates the main conclusions.

REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS The main objective of this year’s sector review meeting was to discuss the sector development status and its challenges, review the programme’s direction, and set out an agenda for priority actions. Specifically, the meeting aimed at reviewing the implementation of water sector programme, including sector reforms and the status of implementation of the various projects under the programme. It was expected that at the end of the workshop, a number of Undertakings on key strategic aspects for future water sector development in Tanzania will have been developed and agreed upon.
DAY ONE – 15th October, 2014
The set up of events for first day of the workshop were in the three main stages: (i) Registration of Participants; (ii) Opening Ceremony (welcome remarks, statements from key stakeholders, official
opening); (iii) Presentations and Plenary Discussions covering six papers. The other routine events (group photo, tea/coffee break, lunch break etc) complemented the day one activities. At the high table the following persons were seated:
Hon. Prof. Jumanne A. Maghembe, Minister for Water; Hon. Hawa A. Ghasia, Minister for State, PMO-RALG; His Excellency Egon Kochanke, Ambassador of Federal Republic of Germany to TZ; Eng. Mbogo Futakamba, Permanent Secretary, the Ministry of Water; Hon. Gideon A. Cheyo, Chairman, the National Water Board; Mr. Yitbarek Tessema, Task Team Leader, World Bank; and Ms. Katrin Brandes, Senior Project Manager, KfW.
The meeting was chaired by the Minister of Water and the secretariat function was with the
PCU, coordinated by Mr. Joseph Kakunda, DPC.
DAY-ONE : MORNING SESSION
OPENING CEREMONY A series of introductory speeches marked the opening of the 9th JWSR meeting. Summaries of the speeches are given below: Introductory Remarks by Eng. Mbogo Futakamba, the Principal Secretary - Ministry of Water. Main points:
Objective of this annual meeting, which is part of the WSDP dialogue calendar, is to review with stakeholders the status, progress and challenges in the water sector.
P a g e | 9
He insisted that this annual review meeting would be an interactive process in which participants may present ideas that will chart the progress of the WSDP.
He mentioned two preceding events: the official launching of the WSDP-II on 21/09/14 and the Joint Supervision Mission of 22/09-03/10/14;
As part of BRN initiative, water sector is doing relatively well. He also emphasized cooperation between the stakeholders, in particular between MoW and PMO-RALG, has improved but needs further strengthening;
Statement by H.E. Egon Kochanke, Ambassador to the Federal Republic of Germany, on behalf of DPG–Water. Highlights:
He thanked Government for hosting this review meeting, which builds a joint understanding of the water sector, its status, progress and challenges;
He noted the importance of this sector wide programme as the largest of its kind in sub-Saharan Africa, and aimed at increasing access of safe and clean water to the people. Achievements realized so far include strengthened legal and regulatory frameworks. He lauded the efforts taken by the Ministry to employ sufficient number of staff for the water sector.
Applauded the effort to increase the budget for the water sector in phase II, DPs on their side have sympathy and will do their best in contributing to the development of the sector;
He urged the Ministry to critically look at the issues as monitoring and supervision of projects, looking at the sustainability of projects especially of functionality of water points, and to give focus to Sanitation and hygiene in the Phase II;
Statement by CSOs was delivered by Mr. Deus Masige, TAWASANET. Highlights:
He commends Government for achieving sanitation and hygiene targets in some LGAs where there exists effective coordination and collaboration between actors. However overall sanitation achievements are still insufficient with a low proportion of people having access to improved sanitation, due to unequal and slow distribution of funds;
He highlighted major issues of concern including: o Pollution of water sources (e.g. Ngerengere and Msimbazi Rivers by waste water
from industries and municipal sewage) poses serious human health hazards; o Too often the issuing of water permits takes months or even years; o Coordination of WRM activities is unsatisfactory, due to inadequate capacity at
basin levels, poor coordination and inadequate budget allocations. He called upon Government to ensure that BWBs act against pollution, accelerate
sanitation and hygiene by improved fund allocations, establish a sustainable financial framework for BWBs with also adequate GoT funding for BWBs.
Greeting notes by the Chairman of the National Water Board, Hon Gideon A. Cheyo:
The pace of provision of water services to the people is not enough. There is a need to expedite on increase implementation of projects;
A need for extra efforts on preserving and protecting water resources. Greeting notes by the Minister of State PMO-RALG, Hon. Hawa A. Ghasia. Highlights:
P a g e | 10
Thanks to BRN, access to clean and safe water in the rural areas increased from 40% in 2012/13 to 51% in 2014/15. This has significant impact on school performance, has improved social well-being and reduced workload to women and children;
PMO-RALG fully supports further enhancement of the institutional arrangements and inter-ministerial collaboration in the implementation of water and sanitation projects, which shall benefit the sustainability of water and sanitation services in the rural areas.
Opening Speech by Minister of Water, Hon. Prof. Jumanne A. Maghembe. Highlights:
After detailing achievements of WSDP-I, Minister underscored the need for conservation of existing surface and underground water sources. He cautioned for encroachments of wetlands for agricultural and other uses, which has already caused serious dwindling of previously reliable water sources. This issue needs to be a focus of phase II and require concerted efforts with other ministries (e.g. energy and agriculture), e.g. stimulate the use of cooking-gas to reduce the demand for charcoal;
WRM: WSDP-II emphasis should be on conservation of water resources and preparedness for mitigating the effects of the climate change, e.g. retain water during the rainy periods and regulate river flow by building of dams and water reservoirs in various parts of the country;
RWS: He urged the experts to look on the ways of increasing water coverage in small townships and districts headquarters to 80%, and look at ensuring sustainability of completed projects including alternative energy options;
Urban: especially in the smaller towns also consider alternative energy options to reduce the burden of high electricity bills;
Special note: Hon. Minister invited the participants to discuss and come to consensus on the use of appropriate percentage-figures for the “level of access to clean and safe water supply in the rural areas”. (58% was used in past, 40% after the BRN review, 57% was recorded in the 2012 census which would now be about 68% when adding the WPs completed since 2012).
PRESENTATIONS Six papers were presented in the workshop. To start with three presentations were delivered, and then followed by reactions from participants.

PRESENTATION # 1: Water Sector Status Report (WSSR) 2013/2014
Presentation by Mr. Joseph Kakunda, Director of Programme Coordination, Ministry of Water The presenter highlighted on the six main areas of this year’s WSSR as follows:- The Introductory part of the report clarifies the policy, legal and regulatory environment
which are the foundation blocks of water sector development, and the introduction also provides a scan of the first seven years of WSDP implementation;
The report summarizes the Water Sector Financing situation (Original commitments, revised commitments and actual disbursements from basket partners, earmarked partners and own sources; and Discussed trend on released and used funds and balance in the WSDP implementing agencies). Currently, revised commitments have reached US$ 1,439 million and actual disbursements amount to US$1,243 million.

(a) Source: Water Sector MIS *) Note: Disbursement of earmarked funds seems low, due to still ongoing large projects (e.g. EU/KfW, AFD) while earmarked fund disbursements are effected by direct payments to providers. Satisfactory performance has been recorded for all IAs on achieving the planned targets.
The report summarizes the Water Sector Performance (Physical performance) of the WSDP implementing agencies under each Component as follows: o Successes recorded for Component 1 includes the operationalization of the
National Water Board (NWB), formation of 90 Water User Associations (WUAs), establishment of 38 catchments and 86 sub-catchment committees, and initiating the process for preparing IWRMPs for all Basin. Also joint measures on trans-boundary waters have improved to satisfactory levels, and water quality surveillance and pollution control have improved to satisfactory levels.
P a g e | 12
o For component 2, the achievements recorded surpass the original targets, as number of water points constructed in rural areas exceed the target of 14,790 adopted during restructuring of WSDP in 2011/12, and the Component 2 managed to construct 28,246 water points. The number of water points constructed kept increasing from 2007/2008 to 2013/2014, with substantial increase recorded in 2013/2014 backed by the BRN initiative. The importance of releasing funds planned for sanitation was emphasized since only 35 percent was released for this component during phase I of the WSDP implementation;
o Increase of the number of domestic connections and the construction of additional kiosks, have improved the level of water services in urban centers and townships. The improved water coverage is recorded as the main achievement of Component 3 in WSDP I. Domestic connections for safe and clean water recorded in Dar es Salaam, in the Regional Centers, small towns and national projects have augmented the number of house connections by about 84%, while the number of sewerage connections has increased by about 50 % since the start of the programme.
o The main achievements gained under the component for Institutional Strengthening & Capacity Building, are the Rehabilitation of 69 offices and construction of 98 offices in all IAs, the Procurement and distribution of 250 vehicles, 477 motorcycles, and over 400 computers and other office equipment. Also the recruitment of over 609 staff and training of over 8669 staff especially in MIS and WPM, have positively contributed to improvement of the financial management, procurement management and reporting quality. 182 staff attended short-term and long-term individual trainings. More stakeholder collaboration and coordination through an effective dialogue mechanism have resulted in improved performance. Draft M&E Framework has been prepared. MIS developed and enhancements have been completed and 90% of the testing completed. Water Point Mapping System has been developed and consensus on its updating mechanism is in the pipeline. Periodical Audits were done on time and responses to queries extensively improved. Adherence to safeguards policies and guidelines have improved over time due to series of trainings and monitoring efforts. On procurement, a total of 2235 contracts were planned to be engaged during WSDP phase I implementation of which 1836 (82%) were awarded.
Status of implementation of 8th JWSR Undertakings from November 2013, summarized
as follows. Out of 11 undertakings 7 have been fully implemented (i.e.: training programme, MIS enhancements, Point source sanitation initiatives for UWSAs, WPM enhancements, convening a WRM high level coordination forum, encouraging use of loans by UWSAs and preparation of a conservation program). Three (3) are partially implemented (SESU, gazetting of townships and nomination of Boards and recruitment and deployment of staff to enhance capacity at RS and LGAs). One (1) was not done (WRM financing options study). Generally performance of the undertakings is good.
The following key issues and lessons were identified during implementation of WSDP 1:- o Water Resources Management:
i) IWRMD Plans finalization is a key aspect in ensuring integrated and coordinated crosses sector demand management and water governance;
P a g e | 13
ii) IWRM needs broader stakeholder involvement at different levels; and iii) Climate Change adaptation need to be given more space during dialoging
and consensus building. o Rural Water Supply and Sanitation
i) There is need to ensure that we send fund transfers to LGAs with clear instructions for COWSO registration and capacity building; and
ii) To improve infrastructure monitoring and general rural water supply data management; updating of WPMS needs to be immediately prioritized at all levels.
o Urban Water Supply and Sanitation i) Out of 104 District and Township Authorities; 6 still have no boards and
boards in 23 authorities have expired.; ii) NRW is still high in almost all major towns and old national projects.; iii) Water sources availability is an issue not only in urban areas but also in
rural areas. Protection and conservation needs to be prioritized during planning and budgeting; and
iv) District HQs, Townships and National Projects implementation and managerial capacities requires special focus if appropriate procedural and operational features of envisaged investments is going to be executed.
o Sanitation and Hygiene i) National Sanitation Campaign is now being implemented in 162 LGAs
and is making steady progress. There is need to expedite more communication and collaboration of MoW, MoHSW, MoEVT and PMO-RALG at National level.
o Programme Delivery Support i) WSDP II is comprised of a wishful long list; it requires careful
prioritization and sequencing during next planning and budgeting cycles.
PRESENTATION # 2: WSDP II Priorities
Presentation by Mr. Erasto Ndunguru, Assistant Director-M&E, Ministry of Water Presenter outlined the following areas: the basis of priorities for WSDP Phase II, Financing and Priorities by Components and Conclusion. The basis of setting priorities focused on the immediate need of funds to meet the
desirable WSDP goals by 2019. It was highlighted, that there was little time to mobilize funds for WSDP II, hence not all funding is available yet for implementation.
WSDP II Financing requires a financial outlay in the order of US$ 3.3 billion. As per October 2014, US$ 1.5 billion have been committed/secured. However, it is to be noted, that the phases of WSDP do not always match the funding-cycles of all the DPs. Some can make commitments only some time later, others have committed for only the initial 3 years but indicated that may commit some more at a later stage, in a next funding cycle.

WSDP-II Priorities:
o Water Resources Management: Water Resources priority projects are selected in response to urgent agenda issues such as: Finalisation of IWRM Plans and ensure their Implementation; Achieve WRM targets / KPIs on water source demarcated for conservations
and protection, water quality management and pollution control; Climate change adaptation activities and disaster preparedness; Capacity development of Basin offices including financial sustainability
measures.
o Rural Water Supply and Sanitation: Rural Water and Sanitation projects are prioritised in line with following principles: Contracts signed in BRN spirit, but which have been put on hold awaiting
funding; O&M arrangements, assisted rehabilitation of existing schemes; Preparation of District water and sanitation plans that will re-focus phased
prioritisations; Quick-win projects, value-for-money projects with immediate impacts.
o Urban Water & Sanitation
Dar es Salaam highest priorities: Completion of production capacity (on-going), e.g. Lower/Upper Ruvu,
Kimbiji/Mpera, Transmission mains, Kidunda dam for flow regulation; NRW related projects: finalise strategy and implementation; Expansion of distribution following capacities.
P a g e | 15
Regional Centres highest priorities: Ongoing major projects, e.g. UDOM, Tabora, 7 towns projects (EU/KfW/AFD); New Regional Centres, and projects for which design studies are already ongoing; District/Small Towns and National Projects highest priorities: Project with completed design studies, awaiting funding since Phase-I Project for which funding is being explored or secured
Total estimated value for Urban Water & Sanitation is US$ 1,400 million, estimated for year one is US$ 140 million. DAWASA projects: Total estimated value US$ 508 million, year-1 estimated US$ 56 million
Out of 11 projects: 10 project cost estimates are based on completed design studies, 1 soon confirmed by ongoing design study.
Regional Centres: Total estimated value US$ 379 million, year-1 est. US$ 35 million
Out of 14 projects: 7 cost estimates are based on completed Design Studies, 6 soon confirmed by ongoing design studies; 1 cost estimate yet to be confirmed by design study.
District /Townships & National Projects: Estimated US$ 481 Million, year-1 estimated at US$ 44 million.
Out of 24 projects: 8 cost estimates based on completed Design Studies, 2 soon confirmed by ongoing design studies; and 14 design studies are yet to be carried out.
Mow Management Support: Total estimated value US$ 32 million, year-1 estimated at US$ 4.8 million.
Set aside about 2.5 % of the top priority list in the first financial year FY 2014/2015.
NOTE 1: Priority projects will follow Basket and GoT fund availability, while Earmarked projects also take into account DP focus areas or DP constraints. NOTE 2: Large urban projects have good potentials for funding by non-traditional DPs (China, India, Saudi Arabia, etc.) and under PPP arrangements.
o Sanitation & Hygiene
Priorities under the new Sanitation Component are based on the following principles: Coordination of Sanitation and Hygiene related activities, some under the other
components; Urban Sanitation, promotional activities, solid waste management, storm-water; WASH in institutions, in schools, in and around health facilities, public places,
around high-ways; Coordination and communication between different ministries and other
institutions.
P a g e | 16
o Programme Delivery Support
MIS enhancements and up-scaling, user training, ensuring timely IFRs, Projections to secure timely disbursements, funds availability monitoring;
WPM system and its updating mechanism, especially monitoring of WP functionality and sustainability;
Communication & publicity, improved dialogue tools, improved reporting and presentations, effective meetings, improved communication between stakeholders, and to the larger public;
WSDP financial management & internal controls, procurement and contract management, PIM revision and usage;
Capacity building coordination, and capacity building of WSDP supporting institutions (WDMI, MCS, DDGA) and WSDP lead Ministries.
Conclusion The priority projects/interventions are expected to achieve the set targets of each WSDP II
component and overall goal of WSDP II as their costs were generated under the same assumptions
With the base of WSDP I, much will be done in WSDP II only if commitment of all stakeholders remains high.
PRESENTATION # 3: Enhanced Institutional Arrangement for Improved Delivery of Water
supply Services in Rural Areas
Presentation by Eng. Frida Rweyemamu, Director of Rural Water Supply and Sanitation, Ministry of Water. Presenter has outlined the following: Context setting and agenda, Set up, Work plans, Monitoring, Capacity and Incentive environment. Agenda – based on discussions that have led to identifying 5 key issues for implementing the BRN: Set Up - How does MDU Link to other governance and performance management structures i.e. the MOW and PMO-RALG structures and the PCU/WSDP? Work-Plans - How to integrate of the BRN into current Ministry, PMO-RALG and future WSDP phase 2 work-plans? Monitoring - How to integrate monitoring and reporting at LGA, RS, PMO-RALG ,DRWSS, PCU and MDU levels? Capacity - What are the capacity constraints in the supervising and supporting (PMORALG/ MOW/RS ) agencies and the implementing agencies (LGAs, private sector, COWSOs)?
P a g e | 17
Incentive Environment - What are effective incentives for accountability – where is the soft and hard power/influence? Resolving these issues will go a long way towards implementing BRN:
Set Up Presenter highlighted about the Tanzania NKRA Delivery System which hierarchically start from the President, Transformation & Delivery Council, Inter-Ministerial Technical Committee, President’s Delivery Bureau (PDB) to the Ministerial Delivery Unit in the Sector Ministry She clarified that links between the MDU and PCU relies on MOW, RSs and LGAs for delivery of BRN outputs.
MDU and PCU have common functions but are also different o The MDU provides an alert mechanism with direct links to the highest
decision making level o The PCU has program coordination functions. o DPP/PCU has policy research advise and basket funding functions that also
address sanitation, urban water and water resources The WSDPII will adopt BRN work-plans and reporting formats for component 2 on
RWSS – bottom line WSDP II Component 2= BRN RDU service all BRN sectors RS is a hub for problem solving at implementing level
By setting up temporary supportive arrangements the BRN/WSDP combine to support long term institutional performance. Either institutional option can work depending on the staff. The dedicated option has been selected. For linking the MDU and PCU, there are two options to consider, an integrated or dedicated version

PLENARY DISCUSSIONS
The following were the remarks from the plenary discussions: Participation of private sector in the operations of water projects: The Minister of Water clarified on this issue by pointing out that:
Efforts are underway to engage private sector in the construction and operations of water projects in the country.
To start with, the technical and financial cooperation is sought for KASHWASA, HTM, Makonde and construction of transmission line from Ruvuma River to rapid growing Mtwara town.
Effective involvement of private sector in the water sector: It was observed that:
There is a deliberate need to effective involve private sector in the interventions of water sector
In furthering that thrust, the DEVCOM is in the process of preparation of the annual forum for private sector in the water sector on 19–21 November, 2014 in Dar es Salaam.
P a g e | 24
Deployment of Water Point Mapping System: It was noted that: Although the situation shows that, there is increase trend of water points, it is observed
new water points are not functioning. This occurrence should also be looked at critically. What has been done on 40% of non-functioning water points? It was also queried, what
is the basis for having new system? GPS were not provided. It was recommended, WPM system should not be deployed unless the accessories are ensured to be in place.
As a response: It was pointed out, all data presented are showing increasing trend; nevertheless, the
Ministry is working on updating mechanism. Moreover, process is underway to complete the Sustainability Strategy.
No need of stopping updating the system because of GPS. Other means of updating should be sought of and worked upon.
It was emphasized that, issue of sustainability is the key in the coming interventions and there is urgent need to continue with O&M.
Achievements on Implementation of Water Projects: During implementation of water projects in the country, it was observed that:
Between 2006 and 2011, there is no marked improvement of implementation, but from 2011 to 2014, it was showed, there is significant improvement. What is strategy used to reach these achievements. The success story should be shared to stakeholders.
As a response: It was pointed out that, water sector is one of sector implementing the “Big Result
Now”Programme which is an accountability framework requiring all players for commitment to successful and speedy implementation of projects by signing of performance agreements; waiving of conditionality of No-objections from the Ministry and the World Bank. Also, waiving of requirements for community contributions. Those contributions were directed to meet O&M costs.
Conservation and Protection of Water Resources: Priority should be given to WRM; it was advised that:
For proper protection of water sources, there is a need to ensure issuing of water use permits is properly managed.
It highlighted, upon request, the customer was not issued a water permit for 9 years. As a response: MoW clarified that, efforts to speedy granting of permits which include increase the
frequency of the National Water Board sitting and efficiency performance of Basin Water Boards.
Linking Expenditures with the Targets: It was remarked:
There is a need to link expenditure of funds with the set targets for efficiency implementation of the water schemes.
It was emphasized, a need to initially understand per capita costs of implementing water projects in urban areas so as to appropriately utilize funds designated for those projects.
Sanitation & Hygiene Interventions in the National Projects: The National Projects were once implemented under the RWSS and currently are coordinated under UWSS Framework:
P a g e | 25
It was questioned, how the WSDP Phase II incorporates the National Projects with regard to S&H?
As a response: S&H for the National Projects has been included in WSDP II under UWSS component. It has been emphasized that, at the design stage, there is a need to initiate S&H
component for projects. Use of renewable energy (solar energy) as a source of power in operations of water projects: It was highlighted that, there is less that 1% of solar energy operated water projects in the country. It was emphasized that:
Thrust should be placed on creating awareness for communities and experts to appreciate the use of solar energy in running water schemes.
Minister of Water explicitly highlighted the high cost of energy as a burden for utilities and emphasized the possibility of solar pumping as a partial solution.
It was noted that many utility staff are stuck with an outdated view of 1970s-era solar PV technology in their mind, and need to be updated on the current status of solar technology and its economic benefits.
The World Bank offered support on training to water engineers on the implementation of schemes using solar energy. At that point it was pointed out that training has already been done in this matter, but Engineers were urged to adopt it.
It was noted that, demonstration on using solar energy has been done in Pugu Kajiungeni in Dar es Salaam.
However, it was proposed the Maji Central Stores to take responsibility of supplying the equipment and accessories.
Planning and funding of WSDP Phase II: It was noted that, WSDP I started on July 2007 and completed on June, 2014. The launching of Phase II was done on September, 2014:
It was asked, where the funds for completing WSDP I will come from? What criteria used to come up with the estimated budget of US$ 3.33 billion?
As a response: WSDP II planning has been very participatory in comparison to Phase I. LGAs and other
IAs came up with their proposals. Priorities of interventions have been taken on board. Funds to complete spilled over projects have been sought. Separate arrangement in terms
of the Additional Financing Facility amounting to US$ 102.99 million is in place. On WSDP II: by thorough analysis of projects, MoW estimated the cost at 3.33 billion. Criteria used for planning were the same as in WSDP I which take into account such
parameters as population, type of technology, existing coverage, etc. Adaptation and Mitigation of the Effects of Climate Change: On the question of water resources priorities, it was pointed out;
Too much focus was beamed on adaptation measures to effects of climate change and to a lesser extent mitigation measures.
It was suggested to be more comprehensive to both options i.e. adaptation as well as mitigation measures.

DAY-ONE : AFTERNOON SESSION After the lunch break, the Meeting resumed business with the following three remaining presentations and the followed by discussions:-
PRESENTATION # 4: Coordination of Competing Sectors on Water
Presentation by Mr. Hamza Sadiki, Director of Water Resources, Ministry of Water. Presenter outlined the following aspects in the presentations: policy, legislation and institutional arrangements; rationale and objectives of multi-sectoral coordination; its importance and current status; current perception and understanding of WRM issues in other sectors; and emerging strategies and approaches. The objective of this presentation was to highlight on water resources management (WRM) issues in Tanzania with particular reference to collaboration and coordination of competing sectors on water resources utilization. The legal and institutional arrangements were highlighted to demonstrate how water using sectors are involved in water resources management. Current status and planned strategies of addressing coordination mechanisms for competing sectors on water use were briefly discussed. The National Water Policy (2002) and the Water Resources Management Act No: 11 (2009) provide for the legal and institutional framework for WRM at 5 main levels: National level (National Water Board); Basin level (Basin Water Boards); Catchment level (Catchment Committee); Sub-catchment level (Sub-catchment committees); and Water Users level (Water User Association). Major water using sectors, local government authorities, water users and other stakeholders are members in these institutions. Each level is essentially constituted by multi-sectoral teams representing national and/or local interests. Presenter highlighted the importance of Multi-Sectoral Coordination which include
No duplication of efforts among water related projects. Synergy among sectoral plans, programmes and projects. Right perception/understanding of WRM issues and responsibilities. Coordinated plans leading to common mutual objectives and goals. Timely information exchange/sharing among plans and projects. Sectoral plans/projects supporting each other in their implementation.
Five levels for cross-sectoral coordination in WRM are Water Users Associations (WUAs); Sub-catchment Committees, Catchment Committees; Basin Water Boards (BWBs), and National Water Board.
P a g e | 27
Challenges facing multi-sectoral coordination include few WUAs, few DFTs are active and Catchment/Sub catchment committees are mostly yet to be established; and the preparation of IWRMD Plans which is underway in all basins which involving limited consultations with key local and national level stakeholders. Presenter mentioned the emerging strategies and approaches to enhance the capacity for cross-sectoral water resources management at national, basin catchment and LGA levels. Lastly, presenter concluded that:
We are all part of the water resources community, we all live upstream of one another within a catchment.
The water sector is highly crosscutting coordination is and will continue to be realized through the existing legal and institutional framework.
Coordination among Competing Water Sectors will be improved during implementation of WSDP II.
PRESENTATION # 5: Equity Monitoring Report
Presentation by Gloria Cheche and Jane Joseph, Shahidi wa Maji, NGO. Most of presentation was in pictorial form and the Presenter focused on review to guide the implementation of the National Sanitation Campaign and also review on management of water resources in Morogoro and Dar es Salaam region as case study. The National Sanitation Campaign The objectives of the ongoing review are to guide the distribution of goods and services across society (the targeting aspect); contribute to the follow up and monitoring of the implementation of the NSC; and ensuring fair treatment of all citizens. The review came up with the following key findings:
Sanitation given a low priority by certain districts, particularly the flow of funds from the DWE to the DHO/implementers
The capacity pitfall: limited capacity for implementation The moving target - Funds release against targets is not improving. Coordination hurdles which include poor district level processes and coordination and
ministerial level coordination. Geographic inequity especially accessibility to locations. The monitoring dilemma: Is it sustainable? The district implementers vs the Public: Who is responsible?
Recommendations on the NSC:
Hasten the National Sanitation and Hygiene Policy; Timely release of funds for sanitation and hygiene and to hasten implementation of
the planned activities;
P a g e | 28
Clear mechanisms for effective and sustained coordination especially at the district levels on the implementation of the NSC;
Monitoring and follow up mechanisms need to be improved.
Water Resource Management The presenter highlighted issues of tragedy of uncontrolled pollution, water allocation and permitting at crisis point and capacity, coordination and accountability. Three actions were proposed to enhance the management of water resources at all levels:
To halt the tragedy of uncontrolled pollution, the BWBs should fulfill their legal duties and use their powers to target, advice and enforce action at the worst polluters.
A realistic financial framework must be put in place to establish and sustain the capacity required by the BWBs to coordinate equitable water use against which they must be fully accountable.
To reverse chaotic water use, resource depletion and conflict, the BWBs must deliver their core functions of equitable water allocation set out in the WRMA 2009.
On conclusion, the Presenter stressed that so as to secure a fair and prosperous water future for all Tanzanians; the Ministry of Water should prioritise increased funding and support to the water resource sub-sector so that it can function and deliver its mandate effectively.
PRESENTATION # 6: PPP Experiences – Improving Water Services and Enhancing
Operational Efficiencies
Presentation by Victoria Delmon, Senior Infrastructure Lawyer, Water, World Bank. Presentation covered the following areas:
Why PPPs? International trends and experiences in use of PPPs for improving water services and
enhancing efficiency What can PPPs bring? Tanzania – current structure of sector Tanzania – potential for private sector participation – possible options and challenges PPP in Infrastructure Resource Center WSP Toolkit for structuring PSP contracts for small water projects, Other Resources
On the question of Why public private partnerships, the Presenter cautioned the audience that the PPP is not superhero for solving all water sector issues; but emphasized that Private sector can be an effective partner to help secure supply and improve services (for example, expand coverage/ reduce NRW). On the international trends in PPPs for water sector, the World Bank/WSP looked at over 260 PPPs arrangements for urban water utilities and rural water supply in several African countries.
P a g e | 29
PPPs succeeded in such areas as increasing coverage; it produced significant reductions in water rationing and improvement in service delivery; also, improvement in billing and collection. On Tanzanian experiences in Private Participation
Failed lease PPP – City Water. Tankers is an informal sector, demonstrate the effectiveness of PPPs Sanitation – cesspit emptiers and tank cleaning, also contribute to the success of PPPs at
grass root level. “business” in serving un-served. Street vendors who has own water sources (boreholes)
and have plumbing network to neighbourhood contribute to the success of PPPs. The Presenters pointed out, PPP can bring in water services, Private financing (but mainly in respect of bulk supply and increasingly in combination with public funds); Efficiency gains and technology in distribution e.g usage of power factor; NRW reduction (commercial and physical); Approaching water supply as a business – long term planning, business planning and asset management; and innovation – serve the unserved (perhaps combine with output based aid). Areas of which, PPPs are not good, were highlighted as follows:-
Taking over public functions such as tariff setting, policy making and sector oversight. Public sector needs to have strong capacity for oversight of the public sector.
Distribution aspect such as, trying to resolve commercial losses where public sector has failed or where enforcement is difficult.
Bulk supply, if there is intermittent or uneven need; short term arrangements; unless just operations; and water/energy efficiency (unless specific incentives).
Current water sector structure in Tanzania involves the following:
In Dar es Salaam, separation of asset holding entity (DAWASA) from service providers (DAWASCO); is in place
Outside Dar es Salaam water supply and sanitation is managed by urban and district utilities;
EWURA was established to regulate Water and Energy utilities In Rural areas water schemes are managed by community organizations (COWSOs) .
Potentials for PSP traced in the following areas:
In Water supply private sectors can mainly participate in operations since they are limited on investment: e.g
o Outsourcing some specific tasks of utilities to private companies (eg NRW/ leakage/ performance based contracts) Incentives for coverage, NRW reduction.etc.
o Outsourcing operations of utilities (operations contract) especially in townships. o In Rural water services, sustainable operations can be achieved if we apply
experience – and lessons learnt from Benin, Kenya, Bangladesh and Senegal o Commercialization of Water Utilities bringing in commercial debt/ private equity
e.g Kenya). Water resources
P a g e | 30
o With regards to huge investments to water resources, PPPs may successfully be applied for construction and operation of dams, pumps, large mains and treatment plants through BOT or DBO (off-take change to cover cost of capital expenditure, financing and operations).
o Operation contracts for new or existing assets Sanitation
o PPPs can be applied for construction and operation of sewerage treatment facilities (bulk supply) but only with the injection of public finance.
o PPPs for construction and/ or operation of sewerage networks. o Formalization of tanker collection and disposal.
PLENARY DISCUSSIONS
The following were the observations from the plenary discussions: Serious pollution cases threaten drinking water sources: It was highlighted that, number of serious pollution cases threatening drinking water sources have identified in Ngerengere and Msimbazi Rivers in Wami Ruvu Basin receives waste water discharges from industries and municipal sewage posing significant water quality problems:
The Minister appreciates information with regard to report on pollution in Ngerengere and Msimbazi Rivers. He emphasized the stakeholders to be informed on issues of chemical analysis in those rivers. What chemicals found in Msimbazi river that raises pH to 12 points.
The Minister urged for collaborative actions against pollution and then later takes appropriate actions against polluters. It is not wise to wait for 1 year in order to raise the issue in the JWSR.
Water allocation and permitting: There are evidences showing that the allocation processes receive less priority, with most users not granted the permits even when they have applied and pay for water user fees for several years. It was observed that:
WRM is slow in issuing water permits which is causing a lot of problems and conflicts all over the country. e.g. Mbulu in IDB requesting a permit for 9 years.
The Minister requested the audience with the BWOs to discuss the issue. A need to have a inter-ministerial meeting to organise high level multi-sectoral team so as
to look at competing demand for water. PPP interventions in the water sector: It was noted that:
PPP legislation has necessitated investments in the water sector; US$ 600 million investment negotiations with private sector are underway, which
include supplying Muheza town from Zigi river, Karagwe town from Rwakajunju river, Mtwara MC from Ruvuma river, Arusha MC, and rehabilitation of Wanging’ombe and HTM National Projects.
P a g e | 31
It was revealed that, upon request IAs did not come up with suitable PPP proposals. Emphasis was stressed for a need of capacity building and awareness creation on the issue of PPP.
It was noted, 1,589 projects were implemented by local private companies in rural areas. Therefore, there is no shortage of private companies to undertake implementation of projects.
Inadequate attentions on aspects of Sanitation & Hygiene: It has been noted that:
The report unearthed weak coordination among implementing MDAs and LGAs; this experience hinder implementation of the NSC
The video showed during the course of the meeting indicating the shady impression of sanitation, in particular, latrines. CSOs were as well requested to showcase the good side of the campaign.
The Minister thanked the CSOs for bringing up the issues.
DAY TWO – 16th OCTOBER, 2014
The set up of events for first day of the workshop were in the two arrangements: (i) Recap of Day One presented by Mr. Joseph Kubena from MoW - PCU/Secretariat; (ii) Group work (formation of groups, group presentations, general discussions); (iii) Closing (Closing statements, official closing). The other routine events (registration, tea/coffee break, lunch break) complemented day two activities. Day Two was mainly devoted to the group discussions that should lead to formulation of the undertakings of this year’s JWSR. The discussions should be guided by the key issues highlighted in the provisional WSSR 2014, and issued raised during day one of the meeting.
EMERGING ISSUES IN THE COURSE OF DISCUSSIONS IN DAY ONE AND TWO During the course of discussions, several issues were highlighted by the meeting participants included the following arranged according to WSDP component set up: i) Water Resources Management
IWRMD Plans finalization is a key aspect in ensuring integrated and coordinated crosses sector demand management and water governance. There is serious need to ensure that the 6 IWRMDPs are completed by December as promised and that the foundation for ensuring they are prepared in all basins is laid and sealed;

IWRM needs broader stakeholder involvement at different levels. More emphasis is needed on communication and outreach, especially through documenting WSDP I lessons and success stories as a way of building up momentum for WSDP II; and
Climate Change adaptation (and mitigating actions) need to be given more space during dialoging and consensus building.
ii) Rural Water Supply and Sanitation COWSO registration has been very slow! There is need to ensure that we send fund
transfers to LGAs with clear instructions for COWSO registration and capacity building so as each LGA prioritizes it and the activity need to have its own KPIs and should effectively be monitored; and
To improve infrastructure monitoring and general rural water supply data management; updating of WPMS needs to be immediately prioritized at all levels.
Minister’s desire to come to a consensus on the “Percentage figures to be maintained for the access to water in rural areas”.
Alternative energy options to be more seriously explored (also in smaller urban schemes).
iii) Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Out of 104 District and Small Town Authorities; 6 still have no boards and boards in 23
authorities have expired. There is need to expedite legal procedures so as to have legally mandated boards for governance in all those towns;
NRW is still high in almost all major towns and old national projects. This needs considerable amount of investment of resources to mitigate its impacts in concurrency with other WSDP II priorities;
Water sources availability is an issue not only in urban areas but also in rural areas. Protection and conservation needs to be prioritized during planning and budgeting; and
District HQs, Small Towns and National Projects implementation and managerial capacities requires special focus if appropriate procedural and operational features of envisaged investments is going to be executed.
iv) Sanitation and Hygiene National Sanitation Campaign is now being implemented in 162 LGAs and is making
steady progress. There is need to expedite more communication and collaboration of MoW, MoHSW, MoEVT and PMO-RALG at National level; and between stakeholder departments in all LGAs and RSs through a clear, easy to comprehend sanitation and hygiene funds management guideline; followed with a harmonized monitoring, evaluation and reporting template.
v) Programme Delivery Support WSDP II is comprised of a wishful long list; it requires careful prioritization and
sequencing during next planning and budgeting cycles. Potentials for PPP/PSP interventions in WSDP-II.

ANNEXES
ANNEX # 1: Opening Speech by the Minister of Water SPEECH BY HON. PROF. JUMANNE A. MAGHEMBE (MP), MINISTER OF WATER AT THE OPENING OF THE NINETH JOINT WATER SECTOR REVIEW MEETING
AT THE KUNDUCHI BEACH HOTEL, DAR ES SALAAM, 15 OCTOBER 2014
Honorable Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Water,
Honorable Chairman of the National Water Board,
Honorable Ministers of WSDP Implementing Ministries,
Your Excellency Ambassadors, High Commissioners and Heads of Multilateral Organizations,
Permanent Secretaries,
Development Partners,
Representatives of WSDP Implementing Institutions,
Representatives of Non Governmental Organizations and Civil Society Organizations,
Distinguished Invited Participants,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let me at the outset take this opportunity to welcome you to the 9th Annual Joint Water Sector Review Meeting. I understand that most of you have travelled from upcountry and even from abroad to come to this meeting. I welcome you with sincere heart because we need a great deal of partnership in almost of all the undertakings of WSDP. This review meeting gathers participants from the government, development partners including non-governmental organisations, from civil society organizations and from the private sector. It has the aim of reviewing the progress on the overall implementation of the Water Sector Development Programme, including deliberation on the status of planned activities implemented since the commencement of the Programme to date, so as to provide guidance on the sector’s strategic direction in an immediate future.
Dear Participants, the focus of this forum is to have a joint reflection on our previous efforts, give a detailed analytical assessment of the current position of the Programme, chart out how best to address the implementation challenges, and outline the way-forward for further development of our sector. As normally done in all the previous Joint Water Sector Review meetings, the course of deliberations for this year will also review the accomplishment of last year’s agreed Undertakings, and will come out with agreed undertakings that normally provide the basis for sector planning and operations in the subsequent period. We have invited you because we believe you can discuss productively on the sector key issues and advise the sector on how to go forward in accomplishing the planned strategic interventions so as to meet programme objectives and targets.
P a g e | 36
Dear Participants, on September 22, 2014 I launched the second phase of the Programme, which will be implemented to June 30, 2019. This follows accomplishment of the first phase of the Programme in June 30, 2014. The Main objectives of the Programme are to strengthen the sector institutions for integrated water resources management, and to improve access to clean and safe water supply and sanitation services to the people in this country. The advancement of this comprehensive framework for sustainable development of the country’s water resources is part of sector reforms following the principles of a Sector-Wide-Approach-to-Planning (SWAP). This setup will enable and reinforce the execution of water sector interventions in a well-coordinated manner. The National Water Policy – 2002, which gives the sector direction on how to sustain the achievements and how to address challenges, guides all our sector efforts; and the National Water Sector Development Strategy – 2006, which guides the sector on how best to implement the policy; all envisage at the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals and the targets set by the National Strategy for Growth and Poverty Reduction (MKUKUTA II). The overall purpose is to make sure that the water sector attains the targets enshrined in the Tanzania Development Vision 2025, which aims at increasing access to clean and safe water in the rural areas to 90 percent, and to have universal access to water supply in the urban areas.
Dear Participants, during Phase I of the Programme, we have seen progress in legal and institutional frameworks in the water sector. In fact, the previously existing legislation on water resources and water supply were scrapped to give way to two new legislations: the Water Resources Management Act, and the Water Supply and Sanitation Act which both passed through Parliament in August 2009. The DAWASA Act of 2001 and EWURA Act of 2001 remained in place. The new pieces of legislation have enabled the establishment and strengthening of various institutions, e.g. for protection and conservation of water sources, for granting of water use and waste-water discharge permits, for construction of water infrastructures as well as the institutions responsible for interventions earmarked for the development and provision of clean and safe water in both the rural and urban areas.
Ladies and Gentlemen, under the overall coordination of the Ministry of Water, the Programme aims at increasing the stakeholder collaboration and interactive participation in all water sector activities as prioritized in the second phase of WSDP. We have a well-established dialogue mechanism as clarified by the Permanent Secretary: we meet in technical working groups, steering committee meetings, conduct joint monitoring trips, as well as the annual Joint Water Sector Review meeting like the one we have today. Through increased collaboration, I believe we will steer the Programme into the right direction.
Dear Participants, Let me remind you that we have a very broad programme; its implementation setup involves 320 implementing entities which include, 9 Basin Water Boards; 168 local government authorities; DAWASA/DAWASCO and townships of Kibaha and Bagamoyo, 23 urban water utilities, 104 district urban and small township water utilities and 8 National Water Projects. The Prime Minister’s Office – Local Government Authorities under the umbrella of Decentralization-by-Devolution, a much closer supervision and monitoring of water projects was put in place, with backing of the regional secretariats all over the country. Besides coordinating the mobilization of funds for water sector development projects, the Ministry of Finance from its side also directly coordinates the implementation of water sector interventions through the Millennium Challenge Account. In addition, focus on sanitation has been on the rise since the inception of the programme. Under the WSDP, through the coordination of the
P a g e | 37
Ministry of Health and Social Welfare in collaboration with and the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training; we have been providing budgetary allocation to improved household sanitation initiatives and School WASH interventions as parts of the National Sanitation Campaign. Such kind of collaborations between the different Government Institutions is praiseworthy, and needs to be nurtured and strengthened for even more efficient and effective implementation of the Water Sector Development Programme.
Dear Participants, the Programme’s Mid Term Review (MTR) of April 2010, noted that the Programme was not on track in relation to its targets, due to several operational challenges; Because of this, in June 2011 WSDP was restructured, not only adjusting targets and priority activities, but also extending Phase I completion date to June 2014. The restructured programme was adjusted with more realistic revised targets, with the corresponding revised financing plans, work plans, procurement plans, and disbursement projections.. Also the results-framework, the performance indicators, the implementation arrangements including dialogue mechanisms, as well as the Programme Implementation Manual (PIM), was revised. The restructured plan also elevated the sanitation sub-component into the National Sanitation Campaign (NSC) under the coordination of the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare.
Ladies and Gentlemen, it suffices the purpose of this meeting if we reflect the programme achievements so far. You may recall that at commencement of the Programme in July 2007, the Government and Development Partners had committed a total of US$ 951 million, but during implementation, more commitments were received, which increased the total funding commitments to US$1,423 million at the end of WSDP phase I on 30th June 2014; an increase of almost 50% of the original commitment. Out of the revised total commitment, between July 1st, 2007 and June 30th, 2014 (over the seven years of implementation), a total of US$ 1,230 million, equivalent to 90%, was disbursed. A good part of this amount was used in only the few last years of Phase-I, when the implementation pace really started taking off.
The good disbursement rates are in sync with also good implementation progress made in each of the programme’s Components. Under Water Resources Management (Component 1), the Programme has promoted institutional and legal reforms that have strengthened the integrated water resources management and development in the country; Under Rural Water Supply and Sanitation (Component 2); the Programme has helped achieve 32,846 new water points, benefitting 8,211,500 beneficiaries in rural areas by June 2014. More than 50% of this was a result of the Big Results Now (BRN) initiative, which has increased the pace of implementation such that 16,784 additional rural water points were installed in just one year from July 2013 to June 2014, compared to just 16,062 water points achieved since July 2007 till June 2013. Also under Component 2, the Sanitation Sub-Component has constructed 24,904 household latrines. The Government’s Big Results Now (BRN) agenda, which require clear lines of accountability for speedy delivery of results, have started indicating that big targets can be achieved if the commitment is high. Under Urban Water Supply and Sanitation (Component 3); the Programme has managed to install a total of 244,270 additional house connections and increased the number of active kiosks to 428, which by June 2014 were providing water supply services to additional 2.86 million people in the urban service areas of DAWASA, in 23 major urban regional centers, in 104 district and small towns, and in 8 National Projects. Some 160,830 more people have access to sewerage services, through 13,832 additional connections.
P a g e | 38
Regulation by the Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA) has impacted very positively in supporting UWSAs’ performance efficiency following various indicators.
Under Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building (Component 4), over 500 new staff recruitments and deployments could be secured for WSDP implementing agencies. Training of more than 8,000 staff, and the acquisition and distribution of 250 vehicles and 477 motorcycles, are among the achievements of capacity building in WSDP I. In addition, the sector MIS is now fully operational, and its functionality is being enhanced to cover all aspects of M&E, An improved and user-friendly updating mechanism is being developed for the water point mapping system that puts all water points countrywide in an electronic map and allows close monitoring of their numbers and functionality. With those powerful IT systems, financial management and reporting have been drastically improved. Concerning stakeholder coordination, there has been an increased interaction between MoW and other MDAs (PMO-RALG, MoHSW, MoEVT, RSs, LGAs) as well as with other IAs (BWOs, UWSSAs, MoW Agencies, National Projects); which has resulting into an improved overall performance.
The dialogue meetings were convened and done effectively. Quarterly, semi-annual and annual reports have all been produced on schedule and the quality of these reports has registered modest improvement. Financial statements were submitted to the CAG in a timely manner, facilitated submission of financial audit reports in satisfactory timelines.
The Programme document for Phase II covering the period 2015 to 2019 was launched on 22nd September 2014. The total program estimate is US$ 3.3 billion and follows similar implementation arrangements as those of the programme’s first phase, with slight modifications to the organization of the components, and the inclusion of a dedicated Sanitation and Hygiene component.
Issues that need more focus of implementation during phase II of WSDP
Effective Utilization of the Water Sector Management Information System and the Water Point Mapping System
Ladies and Gentlemen, Major aims of the restructured WSDP were to strengthen planning, budgeting, procurement and reporting processes through the use of the Water Sector Management Information System (MIS) which became operational in 2011, the urban water utilities performance monitoring system (MajIs), and streamlining of rural water infrastructure monitoring through the Water Point Mapping System. Several achievements have been recorded so far, which have led to improvements in both financial and physical progress reporting. The MIS has enhanced the availability of data and information from the implementing entities, especially on expenditures and contract information. What is still required from the implementers is to promptly enter the payments data into the system, thus making that information instantly available to the financial analysts at the Ministry. Based on these data and information, the Ministry prepares various reports which are used for planning, budgeting, for fund disbursement requests to ensure timey cash flow, and for other decision making processes.
Dear Participants, the current and planned MIS enhancements will support a number of features, including linking contracts with their funding source, improving financial projections;
P a g e | 39
facilitating annual financial reports; providing progress in achievement of BRN KPI’s; and linking financial expenditure with physical progress in percentages, and a new module facilitating the monitoring of internal audit reports. The enhancements have been completed and 90% testing has also been completed. It is my expectation that this system will be fully utilized during the course of implementation in Phase II. With regards to the Water Point Mapping System, in 2012, all water point data were entered into the system thus generating an electronic map countrywide. Currently, improved updating mechanisms for the water point mapping system are being worked out. It is my hope that these innovations, such as the water sector MIS and Water Point Mapping will improve planning and budgeting, timely fund disbursements and cash releases, and an improved expenditure and performance monitoring, and reporting in the coming phase of WSDP.
Deployment of the Appropriate M&E Framework
Ladies and Gentlemen, M&E is necessary for an evidence-based decision making process, for programme improvements and for accountability in the Programme. The value of good M&E is recognised, when the process offers reliable data and information, as required for prioritization and quality control of the Programme activities. Although there is evidence of the use of data and information obtained from monitoring sources for decision making, especially at national levels, I have to confess that the Programme monitoring tools and frameworks have been applied in piecemeal manner, and generally lack regular monitoring action plans. Those were challenges in routine data management, and were partly due to the inadequacy of MIS in capturing physical outputs aside of the financial figures. In response, an integrated water sector M&E system was drafted in 2013, which upon it’s full utilization will form the basic tool for a robust results-based management of the Programme, which aims at overall water sector performance improvements. Ultimately, the integrated M&E framework is designed to ensure that the relationships between inputs and outputs are periodically measured and reported upon, through a real-time water sector MIS linked to EWURA’s MajIs database, to the LGAs’ Water Point Mapping system, and to the Basin Water Offices’ monitoring and reporting mechanisms.
Also, to ensure output quality and value for money, the framework provides guidelines for conducting regular field visits, internal and external audits, technical audits, joint supervision missions and other ad-hoc visits by senior ministerial officials. Reports from the field monitoring visits, surveys and sector studies will be shared and discussed in the sector dialogue mechanism. All the efforts to put in place an effective and comprehensive M&E set-up, will ensure that implementation setbacks experienced in the first phase, will in future be countered. I am optimistic through the commitments of the sector stakeholders, to ponder on an appropriate and comprehensive framework for M&E in the coming phase.
The Big Result Now (BRN) Initiative
Ladies and Gentlemen, In May 2013, the Government introduced the Big Results Now (BRN) agenda. This is a three years special programme from 2013/2014 to 2015/2016; famously known as the Big Result Now initiative, for which six sectors were selected including water sector. This initiative has been mainstreamed within WSDP. It aspires to achieve 67% rural water coverage by 2015. Although the water supply coverage that were being reported before the BRN indicated that about 57% of people in rural areas, the detailed lab data analysis of existing water points
P a g e | 40
found that due to degraded infrastructure, the actual baseline coverage was about 40%; this means that about 5.3 million rural residents have lost their water supply because of inadequate maintenance of their infrastructures. Since its commencement in July 2013, the BRN interventions have been attached to the rural water supply component, thereby focusing on the areas of expansion of the existing rural infrastructure, of rehabilitation of dis-functional water points, of construction of new infrastructures; and to ensure sustainability through the establishment of effective Operation and Maintenance systems for community water supply and sanitation schemes, through COWSOs.
Dear Participants, The BRN agenda has galvanized the implementation momentum by enforcing accountability through the monitoring of time-bound Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). This initiative has resulted in a revolution of performance, as it has facilitated installation of a total of 16,784 water points in a span of only one year from July 2013 to June 2014, benefitting a total of 4,195,997 additional people with access to clean and safe water supply; compared to the total achievement of 16,062 water points achieved in all previous 6 years of Programme implementation (July 2007 to June 2013). By June 2014, the programme managed to achieve 32,846 water points, benefitting 8,211,500 people; thanks to the increased focus given to rural water supply under the BRN. The significant increase is a direct indication that BRN can lead us in achieving the targets if commitment remains high. The total cumulative achievement by June 30 2014 was 77,584 water points, serving 19,396,000 people in rural areas of Tanzania Mainland, equivalent to 51% of the rural population. This is an 11% increase in one year and this has been made possible by the following reasons:
i) Waiving of the conditionality of granting no-objection to LGAs from the Ministry of Water and World Bank before implementation of projects that previously existed;
ii) Allowing implementers especially LGAs to utilize funds in their accounts instead of waiting of the whole budgeted funds to be in their accounts; which has been reason for delaying execution of projects;
iii) Waiving of a condition for community to contribute 2.5% to 5% of the project cost. This condition was waived to pave way for the community contributions to be later utilized in O&M costs.
Those measures together with effective accountability and transparency procedures under the BRN have contributed to this big stride in achievements in a period of just one year in the water sector. Given the significant progress realized so far under this accountability initiative, I should insist once again, that this mode of implementation be practised not only in rural water supply but in all other departments of the Ministry. Above all it should be emulated in the entire water sector.
Sustainability on the Implemented Water Projects
Ladies and Gentlemen, let me take this opportunity to emphasize on the issue of sustainability of the implemented water projects, especially those in the rural areas. The prevailing situation of a declining access to clean and safe water in rural areas is a major challenge, seriously affected by the level of sustainability of rural water supply services. Nationwide, it is estimated that from
P a g e | 41
about 37,000 water points built over the last 20 years, more than 40% are currently not functioning. The non-functioning water points, if made functioning properly, would be sufficient to serve about 5.3 million additional people in the rural areas. The reasons behind this lack of sustainability are:-
i) Lack of O & M programs in the designs of rural water supply and sanitation projects;
ii) Choice of technology with respect to affordable and sustainable water source;
iii) Lack of sustainable supply chains for spare parts;
iv) Inappropriate institutional set-up regarding O&M;
v) Inadequate technical oversight and support; and
vi) Poor management of funds at community level.
Dear Participants, the aforementioned statistics are alarming, and a matter of great concern for this Government. Measures have been thought of, how to improve the sustainability of rural water supply and sanitation projects and services, and the following interventions will be prioritized during the implementation of WSDP II:-
i) O&M will be considered as one of major activities towards sustainability of water supply and sanitation services in rural area. This intervention includes data collection, support operations for complicated and sophisticated projects, taking care of major expansion and major breakdowns which are beyond the capacity of COWSOs, facilitate spare-part supply chains, and providing technical support in rural areas;
ii) Autonomous entities – Water User Groups, Water User Associations and Private operators. In some area, they were found to be more successful in achieving sustainability. In particular, autonomy helped to ensure that funds are available when needed for repairs, through improved revenue collection and reduced mismanagement;
iii) A growing need for establishing improved spare-parts supply chains, is partly due to the increasing number of communities preferring piped schemes, which cause an increased demand for water supply equipment, pipes, materials, tools and spare parts covering all technologies. Due to the above shortcomings, it has been decided to assess the current existing capacity, the commitment and business concepts of the private sector, based on supply chains that are required for an effective and sustainable supply of water supply parts, and explores other options such as Public Private Partnership (PPP) based supply chains; and
iv) Having Registrars in place, COWSOs establishment and registration should be streamlined and regularly monitored by village government and LGAs. The LGAs have an important role to play in providing technical support and help reduce the risk of mismanagement, in particular in accessing spare parts and to support for complex maintenance works. The day-to-day operation and maintenance of individual projects has to rest with the COWSOs.
P a g e | 42
Dear Participants, the Ministry of Water is finalizing the Sustainability Strategy for Water Sector; I urge all stakeholders to constructively contribute their comments towards finalization and implementation of this strategy. Of equally importance, focus should also be on sustainability in the water resources management sub-sector. This will be enhanced through awareness creation of stakeholders at all levels, for them to be more involved in water resources management. LGAs are important stakeholders in water resources management; hence these must be sensitized to be more involved in water resources management.
Non Revenue Water (NRW)
Ladies and Gentlemen, the issue of NRW is to be taken care from projects preparation in all levels of interventions for improving water supply systems in urban areas. Increasing Non-revenue water in most urban areas endangers the sustainability of new projects. The different scenario existed for the non revenue water, where it decreased from 37% in 2007 to 35% in 2013 in other towns; it increased from 53% in 2007 to 55% in 2013 in Dar es Salaam; calling for joint concerted efforts to curb the problem during WSDP II. The Ministry of Water has strategized to reduce the NRW from 55% in 2013 to 25% in 2019 for Dar es Salaam. The increase of NRW is due to various reasons including presence of old distribution network in many towns, which need to be replaced. Thus, in order to allow the effective implementation of new projects all utilities, I should urge, to develop a water balance and a corresponding NRW strategy to indicate how they want to combat NRW within their service area. Works contracts, for rehabilitation or expansion of water supply systems in towns to ensure that the older network can be safely connected to new pipelines and higher pressures and longer service hours to avoid increase in NRW. The Use of bulk and domestic meters should also be enhanced, as a means of implementing the new strategy and water balance control.
Challenges in the Course of Programme Implementation
During the course of implementation of the Programme, the Implementing agencies as well as the Ministry of Water encounter several challenges that slow down our endeavours to meet objectives and targets we set. Let me admit we gain a lot of experiences on the process of finding measures to mitigate the limitations. The challenges included the following:-
Operation and Maintenance Costs
Ladies and Gentlemen, O&M costs of water schemes were very high, particularly for schemes using electric power to run. This situation has hampered sustainability and sufficiency in provision of water services to the communities in rural and urban areas countrywide, especially when the electric bills are too high. As this position has to a larger extent affected meagre budgets of implementing entities, particularly, local government authorities; therefore, I have given directives to technical experts in the water sector to alternatively contemplate on using renewable energy such as solar energy and windmills in the areas with potentialities during planning and design stages of projects. During the course of discussions in this two-day review meeting, it will be highly appreciated if the sector stakeholders constructively advise the implementing agencies on this issue.
P a g e | 43
Human Resources Capacity Constraints
Dear Participants, the water sector faced with inadequacy in qualified and skilled staff in the Ministry of Water; PMO-RALG; basin water offices; LGAs; regional and district headquarter and small township utilities as well as national water projects. This shortfall of technical staff is largely experienced in the lower levels, that is, ward and village levels. As this shortcoming is distressing institutional capacity of the entities to perform their respective duties efficiently, the Ministry of Water requesting the relevant employing authorities to grant permission to employ technical personnel directly from the labour market; and for the existing workforce, to enhance their professional capacities by providing training opportunities.
Diminishing Water Resources
Ladies and Gentlemen, the country is perceived to have abundant surface and groundwater resources for meeting its present consumptive and non-consumptive needs. Severe and widespread water shortages exist in many areas both because of climate variability, poor distribution of the resource in time and space, uncoordinated sectoral development plans, inadequate water security infrastructures, diminishing water resources, population growth coupled with increasing social-economic activities, catchment degradation, climate change and water use conflicts. There are interventions have been prepared by to curtail these effects.
Dear Participants, the National Water Climate Change Strategy has been developed under the Vice President Office, which identifies four major environmental problems in relation to water sector for urgent attention. These problems are water catchments degradation; water management technologies; exploration and extraction of groundwater and access to good quality water for both urban and rural inhabitants. The strategic interventions and action plan have been developed to enable water resource management focusing on protection and conservation of water catchments, development of flood protection mechanisms, technical measures to increase water supply for different uses, increasing efficiency of water use, harvesting rain water for different uses, forecasting in particular for hydrological droughts, reinforcing coastal protection infrastructures and development of economic and financial incentives.
Dear Participants, the Ministry has prepared a water sector strategic action plan to implement the climate change strategy. Moreover, with the coordination of the Prime Minister’s Office there is an initiative to establish a National Early Warning System for Disaster Risk Management. Also, the Ministry in collaboration with GIZ has established a Water sector dialogue forum for stakeholders on climate change. The forum serves as a platform for coordination and exchange of experience and its members meet every quarter to share lessons and research findings on climate change.
Conclusions
Ladies and Gentlemen, in the earlier part of my speech, I highlighted achievements realized in the Phase I. Those are WSDP achievements, which we need to sustain while we strive to gain more in phase II. We need to utilize lessons learned during the previous phase to deliver more outputs and outcomes during the next five years. I once again express my appreciation to the
P a g e | 44
participation of both earmarked and Basket Development Partners during WSDP I (2007-2014) and line ministries; while I render my gratitude for the moral support and financial contribution of all Partners; I would like to take this opportunity once more, to make a call for continued support of every stakeholder during WSDP II (2014-2019), specifically Development Partners including the Private Sector, because we are jointly walking towards common goals and targets. I understand that while we immediately need funds from the DPs to reach the ambitious but very desirable WSDP II goals by the end of 2019; time to mobilize the funding for WSDP-II is a challenge, and that not all the required funds will be available immediately.
Dear Participants, now that you are all set for the meeting, Let me take this opportunity to once again thank the organizers of this meeting. With these remarks, I now declare the ninth Joint Water Sector Review is officially open.
With These Words, I Declare the 9th Joint Water Sector Review Meeting officially open. You Are All Welcome.
THANK YOU ALL

Honourable Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Water,
Honourable Ministers,
Honourable Chairman of the National Water Board,
Your Excellency Ambassadors, High Commissioners and Heads of Multilateral Organizations,

Good Morning.
It is indeed a great pleasure to have you all with us here at this very important 9th Water Sector Development Programme annual review meeting. The “Joint Water Sector Review” meetings are part of the programme’s dialogue mechanism, which was designed to ensure that every stakeholder in the water sector has an opportunity to always be on board with policy, strategic and operational issues regarding the implementation of the Water Sector Development Programme. The main purpose of having the water sector dialogue mechanism is to appraise stakeholders on achievements and challenges, and to deliberate together with stakeholders in order to have consensus on the long-term, medium-term, and short-term priorities, as a way of showing joint management and coordination of this very important programme.
Honourable Chairman;
The dialogue mechanism encompasses technical and policy level meetings as follows: a) We have Technical Working Groups under each component, which holds their meetings quarterly; b) we have Steering Committee meeting, which is a decision making body comprised of Permanent Secretaries and high level representatives of Development Partners. The Steering Committee meeting is normally held twice in a year; c) we have internal annual general meetings for each component to review progress and deal with operational challenges normally held once in a year; d) we have semi annual joint supervision missions that have two subsequent meetings, the kick-off meeting at the start of the mission, and a wrap-up meeting at the end of the mission. Normally the mission, which is done jointly in partnership between government and development partners, goes to the project sites to observe field progress; and e) we have the annual joint water sector review, which is an apex of the dialogue mechanism that reviews the general status of WSDP implementation and sets the policy direction that guides programme implementation in an immediate future through agreed “undertakings”.
Honourable Chairman;
Last year’s 8th JWSR had identified undertakings for the 2013/2014 financial year, describing actions that needed to be undertaken in order to move WSDP implementation forward. This year’s 9th JWSR meeting will have the opportunity to review the status of implementation of last year’s undertakings, and share the challenges faced along the way. But most importantly, we must find the way forward from here. Since we have here stakeholders from Government, from DPs, from NGOs and CSOs, and from the private sector, it is our hope that this mixture of expertise and experiences will help us formulate very smart, realistic and implementable undertakings for the next year. Such undertakings should facilitate implementation with regard to setting priorities in the water sector, and help us in addressing implementation challenges. I am confident because this year’s JWSR is done using a new approach. Unlike previous meetings, this year’s JWSR will be more interactive. Apart from the presentation of the Water Sector Status Report by the Ministry of Water, the presentations offered by various other stakeholders will focus on current subjects of interest, and address some of the challenges encountered during WSDP I implementation. Presentations will be followed by discussions and a consensus for a concrete roadmap for improved WSDP implementation, especially during its second phase.
P a g e | 46
Honourable Chairman;
This year’s forum takes place just days after two important events in the sector; a) the official launching of WSDP II done by you, Honourable Chairman, on 22nd September 2014, and b) the 13th Joint Supervision Mission conducted from 23th September to 3rd October 2014. Launching of the second phase of the Water Sector Development Programme, as implemented from July 2014 up to June 2019, reminds us of the great tasks and responsibilities ahead, which every one of us would like to make sure plays his/her part. The new programme arrangements has broadened its framework from 4 components in the first phase to now 5 components being: 1) Water Resources Management; 2) Rural Water Supply and Sanitation; 3) Urban Water Supply and Sanitation; 4) Sanitation and Hygiene and 5) Programme Delivery Support. Each stakeholder is strategically positioned within one of those programme components, although some few stakeholders may appear to have role and responsibilities in more than one component, depending on geographical area or administrative structure. It is very important for every stakeholder to understand his/her roles, and the areas of action in which he/she is required to play part. The Water Sector Development Programme phase II document has been distributed to you all, and I therefore expect a strong participation during this year’s event and thereafter.
During the Joint Supervision Mission, officials from the Ministry of Water, Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, Ministry of Education and Vocational Training, plus representatives of the Development Partners, NGOs, CBOs and other partner institutions, had the opportunity to deliberate in detail the progress and status of implementation of WSDP activities, by observing progress especially on the selected project field sites. Field visit reports were presented and discussed during the Joint Supervision Mission wrap-up meeting on 3rd October 2014, and the outcome of it was formed the basis for the Aide Memoire, which summarises the mission findings, with emphasis on key areas of concern that require special attention. These are translated into “agreed actions”, which are priorities set for the next six months. The Aide Memoire has rated WSDP Implementation in general to be Moderately Satisfactory, pending more efforts in dealing with outstanding challenges, such as adherence to safeguards policies and guidelines, further enhancements in financial and contracts management.
Honourable Chairman;
This event of the Joint Water Sector Review is important for ensuring that the WSDP is being executed as per agreed commitments and in accordance to the overall programme’s development objective, specific objectives, key performance indicators and targets. To us at the Ministry of Water, this annual gathering is perhaps the most important occasion featured in the WSDP Dialogue Calendar. We welcome you to be with us during these two days of 15th – 16th October 2014, and help us making this 9th Joint Water Sector Review meeting a great success.
Honourable Chairman, with this few introductory words
Thank You

Distinguished guests;
Ladies and Gentlemen
Protocol has been observed
Good morning!
I would like to take this opportunity to say just few words. First of all I would like to thank God
for enabling us to be here today.
Honorable Chair;
On behalf of my Ministry, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation the
Development Partners and all other stakeholders involved in water sector for being in the
frontline to support the implementation of the Water Sector Development Programme. As you
are aware that during the preparation of BRN initiative in 2012/2013, the baseline data was at
40%, equivalent to 15.2 million of the rural population. Currently, it is estimated that 51% which
is equivalent to 19.4 million of the rural population has access to clean, safe and adequate water
service.
Honorable Chair;
This has been imposed very significant impacts on school performance, improved social well
being and reduced workload to women and children who are the most victims on the issue of
poor water supply in rural areas. So, we have to congratulate ourselves for this great
achievement.
Honorable Chair;
With this statistical data, we still have a long way to go. Thus more joint efforts are highly
needed in order to accomplish our set target in the phase two of Water Sector Development
Programme.
P a g e | 48
Honorable Chair;
Once again, I call upon for more enhanced institutional arrangements and collaboration in the
implementation of water and sanitation projects in our country. As you aware, there have been
challenges experienced in the implementation of programme. These include the issue of human
resources in terms of number and skills at all levels including Line Ministries, RS and LGAs.
The other issue is on sustainability where COWSOs (Community Water Supply and Sanitation
Organisations) are the key drivers of the rural water supply projects. So, with the enhanced
institutional arrangement will help to sustain water facilities and services in the rural areas.
Honorable Chair;
In our part as the PMORALG, we will continue to collaborate with other key stakeholders to
ensure that smooth implantation is in place by addressing the challenging including of human
resources at all levels.
With this few remarks, I wish you a very fruitfully meeting.
Thank You
ANNEX # 4: Opening Statement by DPG – Water Statement by Egon Kochanke, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to the 9th
Joint Water Sector Review, Kunduchi Beach Hotel, Dar es Salaam on 15th -16th October 2014
Your Excellency Hon. Prof.Maghembe, Minister of Water,
Chairman of the Joint Water Sector Review and Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of
Water, Eng. Mfutakamba,
Distinguished participants from Ministries, Departments and Agencies,
Representatives of Civil Society and Private Sector,
Representatives of Development Partners,
Dear Colleagues and Partners,
P a g e | 49
It is my pleasure to present the opening statement of this 9th Annual Joint Water Sector Review on behalf of the Development Partners. First of all I like to thank the Government of Tanzania for hosting this meeting and the warm welcome. This review constitutes the annual highlight of the water sector dialogue. It brings together the various stakeholders with the aim of reviewing the implementation of the Water Sector Development Programme, including sector reforms and the status of implementation of the various activities under the programme. The aim of this review is to achieve a joint understanding on the situation, the challenges and the way forward in the water sector. Therefore, this review is expected to provide clear guidance to the sector by determining the sector priorities as well as agreed actions on key strategic aspects. The launching of the Water Sector Development Programme (WSDP) in 2007 marked a new era in the Tanzanian water sector. Today, at the starting point of entering into its second phase, this sector-wide programme is of a magnitude never before witnessed in sub-Saharan Africa. We congratulate the Ministry of Water for this. To increase access to clean and safe water and sanitation for the Tanzanian population is a clear priority of the GoT. Today, at this important stakeholder meeting, it is the right moment to critically discuss and evaluate: Where do we stand after 7 years of implementing the first phase of this ambitious programme? Is it possible for Tanzania to achieve the targets of the National Development Vision 2025 which aim at ensuring universal access to water supply services in urban areas and access to water for at least 90% of the rural population by 2025? Let me please refer to some of the achievements and challenges which are of particular importance for the overall progress in the water sector in Tanzania: As part of the WSPD Programme Phase I, the government undertook large efforts to improve the legal and regulatory framework, planning, performance monitoring and financial management. The Big Results Now! agenda launched in 2013 built on these efforts when it sped up performance and facilitated the installation of water points providing access to clean and safe water for more than 4 mio. additional people in rural areas within one year. Under WSDP II the Government aims to double the annual average budget available and the results to be achieved on water resource management, water supply and sanitation. We have sympathy for ambitious targets. But they have to be realistic and endowed with matching budgets. Wise sequencing of projects and prioritization of efforts will be essential for implementing a programme of this scale, and significant additional funding will need to be raised. Delays in transferring funds to the LGAs also continue to be a challenge affecting effective delivery of program. Sustainability of projects and maintenance of the existing assets is another huge challenge. Building new water points is a great achievement but we will also have to monitor closely how many water points are actually functioning.
P a g e | 50
We appreciate that the sub-sector of sanitation will receive more attention during the second Phase of WSDP II. This will need even closer cooperation with the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education and a clear division of labour. Lastly, we encourage the Government to also think about innovative concepts to accelerate implementation e.g. on
involvement of the private sector with all its know-how,
using commercial financing for viable projects to save scarce budget funds,
introducing performance based supply contracts and, incentive schemes for utilities.
All this requires considerable efforts and qualified staff to implement. We appreciate that the Ministry of Water plans to assign 400 new staff and stand ready to further support the capacity building needed. Honorable Minister, Ladies and Gentlemen, Let me say at this junction: It is now the right time to accelerate implementation – for the sake of the urban and rural population in urgent need for better supply of water and sanitation. I therefore invite all participants of this 9thAnnual Joint Water Sector Review to actively contribute to the discussions in order to make this review a success. On behalf of the Development Partners let me end by thanking the Ministry of Water for organizing this meeting. I am aware that many of you have worked extra hours – not only during the last weeks in order to organize an annual event of this size – but throughout the year. I would also like to thank PMO RALG and other line ministries for their active participation in this review. Let me take this opportunity to thank you all for your immense efforts to make the Water Sector Programme a success. Thank you!
ANNEX # 5: Opening Statement by CSOs
CSO STATEMENT FOR THE 9TH JOINT WATER SECTOR REVIEW
15TH - 16TH OCTOBER 2014 Introduction
P a g e | 51
This statement is being presented by the Tanzania Water and Sanitation Network (TAWASANET) on behalf of all CSOs working in the Water and Sanitation Sector in Tanzania. TAWASANET is a network of diverse Tanzanian civil society organizations and other stakeholders which was established in August 2008. Through coordination and collaboration, the network aims to ensure that all citizens have equitable access to safe water and improved sanitation by influencing policy makers and practitioners and promoting good practice. This year, our focus is on improved sanitation and water resources management performance. Our recommendations are based on the analysis for the performance of the ongoing National Sanitation Campaign and Water Resources Management. National Sanitation Campaign Tanzania is among the East and Southern African Countries which are off track in meeting MDG
goal 7 target to half by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to water supply
and basic sanitation. The National Sanitation Campaign was launched by the government in 2012
and is being implemented in 162 Local Government Authorities in Tanzania Mainland with
notably progress being made by the respective actors.
The Network commends the government in achieving sanitation and hygiene targets in some of
LGAs such as Chato District Council (89%) and Kilombero District Council (192%) due to
effective coordination and collaboration of the actors.
However, sanitation’s profile is still very low with only 12% of the proportion of people with
access to improved sanitation. By June 2014, a total of 384,709 improved latrines (25.3% of the
planned 1.52 million) and 128 schools (16% of the planned 812 schools) have been achieved.
Given the remaining one year of the campaign and the MDGs, the country may not reach the
planned targets.
We have noted some issues that hinder implementation of the campaign;
Sanitation investment is less than 0.1% of the country’s GDP and there is no specific
budget line at either the central or local government level.
Inadequate human resources and low capacity of LGA staff to undertake sanitation and
hygiene activities and inadequate effective monitoring by Regional Secretariats.
Delayed/untimely disbursements of funds to respective LGAs attributed with seasonal
climatic risks for the implementers.
Weak coordination among implementing Ministries and LGA’s
Inequitable distribution of funds with regard to geographical location.
National Sanitation Campaign – Menstrual Hygiene Management in School WASH There is little attention on menstrual hygiene management to matured girls in Primary and
Secondary Schools in Tanzania characterized by inadequate water supply and access to sanitary
P a g e | 52
products, clean and sanitation facilities such as special rooms for girls’ secrecy during the
menstrual period. Without such access, girls can miss up to 50 days of school per year, resulting
to their poor performance in class and national exams. The situation is worse in rural settings
where the price of sanitary products is higher compared to urban areas of which rural
communities cannot afford.
What are we calling for on the National Sanitation Campaign? TAWASANET is calling for the government of Tanzania to;
Expedite more communication and collaboration of MoW, MoHSW, MoEVT and PMO-RALG at National level; and between stakeholder departments in all LGAs and RSs through a clear, easy to comprehend sanitation and hygiene funds management guideline; followed with a harmonized monitoring, evaluation and reporting template and using CSO’s as the external venue to assist in the effective monitoring of the implementation of NSC at the LGA’s/district levels.
Fasten approval of the National Sanitation and Hygiene policy. Timely release of funds for sanitation and hygiene in FY 2014/15 to the responsible
implementers to fasten implementation of the planned activities. Set effective mechanisms for subsidization of sanitary pads to the producer to help reduce
selling price that will be affordable by rural communities and include sanitary pads in the
expenditures of capitation grant to improve supply of sanitary pads and sanitation
facilities in schools.
Water Resources Management – findings from the equity report 2014 We appreciate the efforts done by the government on the WRM, but we still believe that something should be done more to add value on the WRM profile in the country. The network focus for this year is based the three major issues of concern;
Pollution control, Water allocation and permitting, and Capacity, Coordination and Financial accountability.
Pollution control We have identified a number of serious pollution cases which threaten drinking water sources,
human health, agriculture and commercial investments. Examples are drawn from Ngerengere
and Msimbazi Rivers in Wami/Ruvu Basin which receives waste water discharges from
industries and municipal sewage posing significant water quality problems.
The Ngerengere River is 1000 times polluted than the typical level for clean rivers and has faecal
coliforms from sewage at up to 8000 times the safe level of drinking water set by WHO. The
pollution endangers the health and livelihoods of downstream users, posing high health risks to
thousands of people in Kingolwira, Kipera and Sangasanga Streets, who have no option than to
use the polluted water for domestic and farming purposes because the area is characterized with
high salinity of groundwater. The Ngerengere river water also enters the Ruvu River, the main
source for drinking water for Dar es Salaam.
P a g e | 53
Msimbazi River poses health risks of more than 200,000 people with a pH as high as 12 causing
severe burns to skin, Chromium (6) levels at 75 times the legal limit posing a threat of cancer
and birth defects through long-term exposure and faecal contamination far above WHO
standards which is 10,000/100mg. We also understand that the river has potential recharge for
local groundwater of which thousands of the residents depend on for domestic use.
We realize that the polluters do not have discharge permits from the Basin Water Boards and do
not comply with legal standards. Water pollution has remained an increasingly water resources
management challenge across the country and its control should not be considered as a burden on
business but an essential pre-requisite for sustainable and equitable growth.
Technical and financial capacities for pollution control including monitoring and compliance,
and a lack of political will and legal authority to take action are identified as bottlenecks towards
reversing the situation.
Water allocation and permitting The network commends the great work of the Basin Water Boards in increasing the number of
permits each year since their establishments. We also praise their good work keeping up with
review of permits as per the WRMA, 2009 for the betterment of the various water users across
the country.
However, there are evidences on the ground showing that the allocation processes receive less
priority, with most users not granted the permits even when they have applied and pay for water
user fees for several years. Examples are drawn from Mbulu in IDB and Kilombero in Rufiji
Basin, but reflect the reality across all the 9 basins. With population and economic growth, new
water investments are underway and pose a huge risk of future water security. Also, lack of EIAs
for most of the planned irrigation projects and limited environmental flows studies by the Basins
might mislead allocation decisions.
Capacity, Coordination and financial accountability We, the CSOs, understand the value of improved water resources management towards achieving the water supply and sanitation targets. Although the WRM sub component contributes highly to achieving water supply and sanitation; it has not been prioritized given its intangible impacts and low profile. This has attributed to inadequate capacity and coordination. For the last seven years, the sector has received up to 9% of the sector’s budget allocations associated with delays and untimely disbursements of funds. In the year 2013/2014, the water sector received only 27% of the allocated budget, leaving the WRM sub component’s performance questionable. Basin Water Boards met on average only 1.5 times in 2013 versus the 4 times annually they are supposed to sit for important decision making including sign off water use and discharge permits. Most basins have less than half the number of required staff they need to function effectively. We draw lessons from Rufiji Basin with only 39 Staff versus the identified need of 81 in their business plan. Delayed catchments/sub catchments gazettement hinders establishment
P a g e | 54
of legal catchment/sub catchments committees and hence full representation of Board members in all the 9 BWBs. Water Users Associations across the country face limited capacity, revenue and confusion about their roles and authority, apart from Upper Kikuletwa in Pangani Basin and Wami in Wami/Ruvu among the few who are performing well. Only 93 WUAs have been established in the whole country but we are already concerned about the costs of their establishment and the effects of this on their viability as sustainable institutions in the WRM institutional framework. Little communication between BWBs and important agencies with development roles in the water sector limits information sharing on water availability which could otherwise inform investment planning and decisions. Also, less number of meetings since establishment by the National Water Board which is mandated with the sectoral coordination at the National level to advise the Division for WRM increases insufficient sectoral undertakings on water development as a centre connecting resource. We have also noted that current ways of reporting undermine financial accountability and performance tracking. There are problems in the way spending is reported in the MIS with expenditure categories not clearly linked with BWB Performance indicators. Our WRM budget analysis work has just begun and will generate important findings and analysis to strengthen the sub sector’s performance of WSDP II. What are we calling for? Based on the above analysis, TAWASANET is calling for the Government to see to the following priority actions;
To halt the tragedy of uncontrolled pollution, the Basin Water Boards should meet their legal duties and use the powers bestowed to them to target advice and enforcement action at the worst polluters in Tanzania.
To reverse the growing crisis of chaotic water use, resource depletion and conflict, the Basin Water Boards must deliver their core functions of equitable water allocation as set out in the Water Resources Management Act 2009.
A realistic financial framework must be put in place to establish and sustain the capacity required by the BWBs to deliver their roles and coordinate equitable water use, against which they must be fully accountable.
The Ministry of Water should prioritise and make a concerted effort to increase funding and support to the water resources sub-sector so that it can function and deliver its mandate effectively.

• Sanitation & Hygiene Priorities under the new Sanitation Component are based on the following principles
P a g e | 66
• Programme Delivery Support • MIS enhancements and up-scaling, user training, ensuring timely IFRs,
Projections to secure timely disbursements, funds availability monitoring; • WPM system and its updating mechanism, especially monitoring of WP
functionality and sustainability; • Communication & publicity, improved dialogue tools, improved reporting and
presentations, effective meetings, improved communication between stakeholders, and to the larger public;
• WSDP financial management & internal controls, procurement and contract management, PIM revision and usage;
• Capacity building coordination, and capacity building of WSDP supporting institutions (WDMI, MCS, DDGA) and WSDP lead Ministries;
Conclusion
• The priority projects/interventions are expected to achieve the set targets of each WSDP II component and overall goal of WSDP II as their costs were generated under the same assumptions
• With the base of WSDP I, much will be done in WSDP II only if commitment of all stakeholders remains high.
It can be done, let everybody play his or her part!

ANNEX # 8: Coordination of Competing Sectors on Water Presented at the 9th JWSR Meeting Held at Kunduchi Beach Hotel on 15th October 2014 by Mr. Hamza Sadiki, Director of Water Resources Outline:
Introduction Policy, legislation and institutional arrangements Rationale and objectives of Multi-sectoral Coordination Importance of Multi-Sectoral Collaboration Current perception and understanding of WRM issues in other sectors Current status on Multi-Sectoral Coordination Emerging strategies and approaches
Introduction
The objective of this presentation is to highlight on water resources management (WRM) issues in Tanzania with particular reference to collaboration and coordination of competing sectors on water resources utilisation.
The legal and institutional arrangements are highlighted to demonstrate how water using sectors are involved in water resources management.
Current status and planned strategies of addressing coordination mechanisms for competing sectors on water use are briefly discussed.
Policy, Legislation and Institutional Arrangements
The National Water Policy (2002) and the Water Resources Management Act No: 11 (2009) provide for the legal and institutional framework for WRM at 5 main levels: o National level (National Water Board) o Basin level (Basin Water Boards) o Catchment level (Catchment Committee) o Sub-catchment level (Sub-catchment committees) o Water Users level (Water User Association)
Major water using sectors, local government authorities, water users and other stakeholders are members in these institutions.
Each level is essentially constituted by multi-sectoral teams representing national and/or local interests.
Rationale and Objectives for Multi-Sectoral Coordination
Water is among the vital natural resources of which its issues cannot be dealt in isolation or sector wise.
Population growth, uncoordinated land use and management plans, increasing deforestation, agricultural & industrial expansions, mining growth, increasing energy needs, pollution and climate change have become a big challenge given the need to conserve the environment
P a g e | 68
Various sectors are involved in WRM. There are many water user entities like; irrigators associations, community owned water supply organizations, hydropower generating entities, the environment and natural resources groups, etc.
All these have a stake in WRM in one way or the other. The traditional sector oriented planning is not appropriate today. A new approach
namely the Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM); is key to multi-sectoral planning in WRM – considering issues holistically.
Cross sectoral coordination for sustainable water resources management and its utilization is therefore of paramount importance.
Lack of cross sectoral coordination has resulted in costly infrastructures/interventions and sometimes rendered useless.
Importance of Multi-Sectoral Coordination Effective coordination at all level would lead to:
No duplication of efforts among water related projects. Synergy among sectoral plans, programmes and projects. Right perception/understanding of WRM issues and responsibilities. Coordinated plans leading to common mutual objectives and goals. Timely information exchange/sharing among plans and projects. Sectoral plans/projects supporting each other in their implementation.
Current Perceptions of WRM Issues in Other Sectors
Water Resources Management (WRM) issues are little known outside the water sector. Knowledge in other sectors exists within those few who participate in WRM
activities/meeting. No proper feedback mechanism to a wider audience back to their sectors/ministries. Thus no decision or plans favorable to WRM are subsequently taken. At the moment there is no established central coordination unit for coordination for
WRM issues in the line ministries/sectors. In some ministries, sectors oriented approach (Silos) mentality still prevails. The concept of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) is yet to be properly
conceived by other water using sectors. Current Status on Multi-Sectoral Coordination
As the Government continues with implementation of key development projects drawn from several initiatives, i.e;
o Tanzania Development Vision (TDV) 2025; o Five Year Development Plan (FYDP) 2011-2016; o Big Result Now (BRN) and SAGCOT; and o Other ambitious sectoral development targets such as ASDP, National Irrigation
Master Plan 2002 and Power Master Plan 2013 among others.
Water resources is an integral input to all these developments plans. However, coordination among sectors is still fragmented i.e. there is weak coordination
between major water related sectors and MoW.
P a g e | 69
Five levels exist for cross-sectoral coordination in WRM
Water Users Associations (WUAs) which are supposed to bring together all water user groups and/or major water users in a river reach.
Sub-catchment Committees, where Districts (through District Facilitation Teams (DFTs)) are directly involved.
Catchment Committees where Districts and Regions and other stakeholders are involved. Basin Water Boards (BWBs) which are multi-sectoral in nature with representative from
Catchment Committees and other stakeholders including LGAs. National Water Board which has representatives from the Sectors, BWBs, Private Sector,
and Prime Minister’s Office. Current Status on Multi-Sectoral Coordination - Challenges
A handful of WUAs exist (about 90), few DFTs are active and Catchment/Sub catchment committees are mostly yet to be established.
This means that cross-sectoral coordination at the local levels is still a huge challenge. The preparation of IWRMD Plans which is underway in all basins which involving
limited consultations with key local and national level stakeholders. District and national plans for water use are being incorporated in preparation of the plans.
BWBs and NWB are multi-sectoral in nature, but need a multi-sectoral technical support for decisions.
Current Status on Multi-Sectoral Coordination – other initiatives Apart from the NWB and BWBs, a number of multi-sectoral working groups that work
jointly and cooperatively towards shared objectives have been established; Water Resources Group (2030) – which is a public and private partnership on WRM is
operational in Tanzania Climate Change Dialogue Forum in water sector is active The BWBs AGMs and WSDP Comp I TWG bring together delegates from different
sectors, NGOs, DPs and other groups interested in WRM Emerging Strategies and Approaches The planned measures are to enhance the capacity for cross-sectoral water resources management at national, basin catchment and LGA levels through;
Strengthening of the National Water Board and Basin Water Boards on water resources management issues
Establishment of a common multi-sectoral database and information system that is easily accessible by key stakeholders
Establishment of a center of excellence for multi-sectoral research, modelling and capacity building in form of the Water Resources Applied Research Institute (WRARI) that will support the NWB, BWBs and other sectors with technical information
Harmonization of the NAWAPO (2002) with other related policies for effective implementation of IWRMD Plans under preparation in each basin.
Establishment of a high level inter-sectoral steering committee on water resources management and development.
P a g e | 70
Creating awareness of tradeoffs on water availability and uses among water competing sectors.
Establishment of WRM forums at Basin and National Levels. Conclusions
We are all part of the water resources community, we all live upstream of one another within a catchment.
Since the water sector is highly crosscutting coordination is and will continue to be realized through the existing legal and institutional framework.
Coordination among Competing Water Sectors will be improved during implementation of WSDP II.

ANNEX # 9: Equity Monitoring Report Presented by Gloria Cheche, and Jane Joseph, Country Programme Manager, Shahidi wa
Maji
Spotlight on: The National Sanitation Campaign and Water Resource Management
P a g e | 71
National Sanitation Campaign
Preliminary Findings:
• TAWASANET’s review to guide the implementation of the NSC
Objective of the Ongoing Review
Guide the distribution of good and services across society (the targeting aspect) Contribute to the follow up and monitoring of the implementation of the NSC Ensuring fair treatment of all citizens.
Key Findings
Provided a low priority by certain districts level implementation, particularly the flow of funds from the DWE to the DHO/implementers
The capacity pitfall: limited capacity for implementation The moving target - Funds release against targets is not improving Coordination humps
o Poor district level processes and coordination
P a g e | 72
o Ministerial level coordination Geographic inequity: Low acknowledgment as transport remains a challenge The monitoring dilemma: Is it sustainable The district implementers vs the Public: Who is responsible
Equity means Every Person
Need for Sustained Improvements and Follow Up
P a g e | 73
Recommendations on the NSC
Hasten the National and Hygiene policy for the future profile of Sanitation and Hygiene particularly Financing;
Timely release of funds for sanitation and hygiene in FY 2014/15 and for the responsible Ministries to hasten implementation of the planned activities;
There should be a clearer mechanisms for effective and sustained coordination especially at the District Levels on the implementation of the NSC;
Monitoring and follow up mechanisms need to be improved.
Spotlight on Water Resource Management
Issue 1: The tragedy of uncontrolled pollution
P a g e | 74
P a g e | 75
ACTION: To halt the tragedy of uncontrolled pollution the BWBs should fulfill their legal duties and use their powers to target advice and enforcement action at the worst polluters in Tanzania. Issue 2: Water allocation and permitting at crisis point
P a g e | 76
P a g e | 77
ACTION: To reverse chaotic water use, resource depletion and conflict, the BWBs must deliver their core functions of equitable water allocation set out in the WRMA 2009. Issue 3: Capacity, coordination and accountability ACTION: A realistic financial framework must be put in place to establish and sustain the capacity required by the BWBs to coordinate equitable water use against which they must be fully accountable. To conclude To secure a fair and prosperous water future for all Tanzanians… The Ministry of Water should prioritise increased funding and support to the water resource sub-sector so that it can function and deliver its mandate effectively.

ANNEX # 10: PPP Experiences: Improving Water Services and Enhancing
Operational Efficiencies Presented by Victoria Delmon, Senior Infrastructure Lawyer, Water, World Bank Presentation will cover:
Why PPPs? International trends and experiences in use of PPPs for improving water services and
enhancing efficiency
P a g e | 78
What can PPPs bring? Tanzania – current structure of sector Tanzania – potential for private sector participation – possible options and challenges PPP in Infrastructure Resource Center – www.worldbank.org/pppirc WSP Toolkit for structuring PSP contracts for small water projects -
http://www.wsp.org/sites/wsp.org/files/publications/PPP-Contracting-Toolkit.pdf Other Resources
Why public private partnerships?
PPP ≠ superhero for solving all water sector issues.
Private sector can be an effective partner to help secure supply and improve services
(expand coverage/ reduce NRW). Think about what challenges you are facing and whether the private sector can be part of
the solution. Common sited concern that water should be a free commodity, private sector is for profit
and so has no place in water sector. Water supply comes at a cost (investment, treatment and pumping). Has to be paid for by someone (tax payer/ user). Operator fees can lead to savings. Poorest end up paying significant premium for water. Whether introduce private sector or not, need to have sustainable revenues (and then
decide where to direct subsidy). Tanzania – Experience in Private participation
Failed lease PPP – City Water. Tankers. Sanitation – septage removal and tank cleaning. “business” in serving un-served.
P a g e | 79
International trends in PPPs in water
PPPs for Urban Water Utilities – Experiences in Developing Countries – World Bank (2009) –looked at over 260 PPPs for urban water utilities.
Building Partnerships for Development – Emerging PPP Trends in water and sanitation sector (2011) – www.partnershipsforwater.net
WSP survey looking at PSP in rural water supply in several African countries http://www.wsp.org/wsp/sites/wsp.org/files/publications/PPPs_for_small_piped_water_schemes_English.pdf.
Many Water PPPs run by private water operators from developing countries (representing 40% market, with over 28 identified as serving populations over 400,000)
Some public utilities winning contracts in other countries (eg ONEP from Morocco won affermage in Cameroon)
Private sector investment has been low – trend away from concessions to management or affermage contracts (unless there is a strong revenue stream)
Use of BOTS for water treatment, wastewater and desalination – China, India, Egypt, North Africa.
Increased use of hybrid financing (IFI + private) – need to get inventive. PPPs succeeded in increasing coverage. PPPs produced significant reductions in water rationing and improvement in service
delivery. Improvements in billing and collection. Discrete services being outsourced – eg Amman, Jordan – billing and collection, leakage
(Vietnam) hybrid affermage supply contracts (West Africa) with public sector investment and
private sector operation – separation of assets and operations. Rural water - operations by private sector – working with communities (Benin, Senegal,
Kenya) – less investment in schemes (accessibility of finance issues). Capacity building of private sector important.
What can PPPs bring in water?
Private financing (but mainly in respect of bulk supply and increasingly in combination with public funds).
Efficiency gains and technology in distribution.
P a g e | 80
NRW reduction (commercial and physical). Approaching water supply as a business – long term planning, business planning and
asset management. Innovation – serve the unserved (perhaps combine with output based aid). Sustainability – incentive to operate and maintain assets (rural?). Sanitation?
What PPPs are not good at?
Taking over public functions such as tariff setting, policy making and sector oversight. o Establishing sustainable sources of revenue – setting tariffs at cost recovery levels
is not a private sector function and PSP should not be used as main reason for setting tariffs at realistic levels.
o Public sector needs to have strong capacity for oversight of the public sector. o Public sector needs to look over long term in developing asset management plans
and recognising need for long term maintenance and rehabilitation. o Law enforcement important – illegal connections, pollution.
Distribution o Trying to resolve commercial losses where public sector has failed or where
enforcement is difficult o Adapting over time to meet new challenges and circumstances – renegotiation o Being brought in where there is a limited or poor data (preparation is important)
Bulk supply o If there is intermittent or uneven need - take or pay. o Short term arrangements – unless just operations. o Water/ energy efficiency (unless specific incentives).
Tanzania – Current sector structure
Dar es Salaam - Separation of asset holding entity (DAWASA) from service providers (DAWASCO)
Outside Dar es Salaam – urban and district utilities Established regulator for urban - EWURA Urban tariffs on the low side Rural – community managed schemes
Potential for PSP
Water supply – mainly operations (limited on investment): o Outsource some specific tasks of utilities to private companies (eg NRW/ leakage/
performance based contracts)? Incentives for coverage, NRW reduction.. o Outsource operations of utilities (operations contract) [possibly smaller cities or
towns?] o Rural water – sustainable operations - apply experience in Benin, Kenya,
Bangladesh, Senegal o Commercialisation of Water Utilities (bringing in commercial debt/ private
equity? Eg Kenya) Water resources –
P a g e | 81
o Investment - PPPs for construction and operation of dams, pumps, large mains and treatment plants (BOT or DBO) (off-take change to cover cost of capex, financing and ops) (combine public with IFI/ other funding)
o Operation contracts for new or existing assets Sanitation
o PPPs for construction and operation of sewerage treatment facilities (bulk supply) [public finance?]
o PPPs for construction and/ or operation of sewerage networks o Formalisation of tanker collection and disposal?
Potential in rural sanitation?

ANNEX # 11: Closing Statement by Development Partners
Tanzania Joint Water Sector Review, Kunduchi Beach Hotel, October 15 - 16, 2014
Closing Statement
Hon. Prof. Jumanne Maghembe, Minister of Water,
Chairman of the Joint Water Sector Review,
Distinguished participants from various Ministries, Departments and Agencies,
Representatives of Civil Societies and Private Sector,
Representatives of Development Partners and colleagues,
Distinguished Guests,
On behalf of the World Bank Country Director Mr. Philippe Dongier who is on mission out of the country, I would like to express my great pleasure and honor to be invited to give a closing statement of this 9th annual joint water sector review workshop on behalf of the development partners.
Let me first of all thank the Ministry of Water for successfully conducting this important workshop which I understand has deliberated on key sector issues and set the way forward.
The theme of this year review is “Marking the end of Water Sector Development Program phase One” as it is happening just after the launch of the second phase of the program. It therefore has dual purposes of ensuring a successful completion of the first phase and setting the pace for beginning of the second phase.
So Honorable Minister, Congratulations for the achievements in implementation of this large sector wide program. This is really a result of persistent commitment and dedication that enabled the sector institutions to overcome a number of challenges and eventually register progress.
Implementation over the last seven years has not been without challenges. There were substantial startup delays and slow pace at the beginning of the program. However, implementation picked up with a positive trajectory following implementation of the recommendations from the midterm review, with substantial improvement in pace of implementation of the rural water supply as a result of the introduction of the Big Result Now (BRN) initiative in 2013.
Through the years, the various implementing agencies have continued to accumulate experience and gain momentum both in program implementation and wining increased political attention. The increase in size and coverage of the first phase program from an initial US$ 951 million to US$ 1.4 billion is a reflection of this progressive growth.
And as a result, about 8 million people in Rural and about 2.8 million people in urban areas of Tanzania have been provided with safe and clean water supply,
P a g e | 84
And about 385,000 improved house hold latrines and 128 school sanitation facilities have been completed. A good foundation has been laid for effective management of the country’s water resources through establishment and capacity building of the basin offices.
Honorable Ministers!
Ladies and Gentlemen:
GOING FORWARD, as the sector embarks on another ambitious phase of the sector program which is more than double the size of its predecessor, commensurate capacity to deliver is critical! Challenges are inevitable!
Let me on behalf of the development partners emphasize on areas that we think will need enhanced attention in the second phase of the program:
i) Program Management and Coordination Capacity: MoW needs to further enhance its capacity for overall program coordination, as well as fiduciary, contract and safeguard management.
ii) Water resource in the country is abundant but finite and unevenly distributed; given the increasing competing demand for water resources by the various economic and social sectors. It is important that the resource be used more efficiently and the basins be climate change resilient. I am happy to note that water resources conservation has been high in the meeting agenda and that MoW reconfirmed its committed and already took the initiative to coordinate and work with relevant sector institutions and stake holders towards addressing the issue!
iii) Rural Water Supply: Tremendous progress has been registered following the launching of the “Big Results Now” (BRN) initiative. Still there is room to speed-up implementation and ensure substantial increase in access to clean and safe water.
Similarly, in Urban Water Supply, efficient management and operation of the urban and small town utilities is also needed.
iv) Sustainability: The achievement registered so far will only have full meaning if and only if the systems are provided in a cost effective manner and kept sustainable for their design life time. This has been and will continue to be a major challenge in the sector. As per the water point mapping conducted in 2011 to 2013, about 40% of the water points were found to be nonfunctional. A serious initiative supported by clear strategy will need to be undertaken under the second phase of the program.
This can’t be done by Government alone: Involvement of the private sector and beneficiaries is needed.
v) Pleased to note that Sanitation and hygiene is given enhanced attention with the incorporation of a dedicated component. This calls for increased involvement of the MoHSW and MoEVT.
vi) Monitoring and Evaluation: Putting in place a reliable monitoring and evaluation system is an important factor for adequate tracking of progress. It is encouraging to note that the initial result from the Water Point Mapping (WPM) exercise has served
P a g e | 85
well in setting the baseline in the design of the rural water supply in BRN. The Management Information System (MIS) established under the program is also an important monitoring tool. Going forward it is important to ensure that these tools are well developed and synchronized with the sector M&E system to serve beyond what they are delivering at the moment.
Finally: Let me once again, on behalf of the development partners, take this opportunity to thank the Ministry of Water for organizing this event and above all to the management and the entire staff of the MoW, PMO-RALG, MOHSW, MoEVT, MoF, as well as implementing agencies and Development Partners for your enormous efforts to improve the water sector management and development and to make the water sector program a success.
Thank you!
Asanteni Sana!
ANNEX # 12: Closing Statement by CSOs
CSOs CLOSING STATEMENT FOR THE 9TH JWSR MEETING 16TH OCTOBER 2014
Introduction- Hon. Chairperson – Prof. Jumanne Maghembe,
Hon. Minister, PMO - RALG – Hawa Ghasia,
Ag. PS (MoW) – Eng. Mbogo Futakamba,
Deputy PS (PMO – RALG) – Dr. Deo Mtasiwa
Hon. Chairperson National Water Board – Gideon Cheyo,
DPS representatives,
CSOs representatives,
Ladies and gentlemen
TAWASANET would like to congratulate the Ministry of Water on a successful review and commends the spirit of collaboration the Government, especially the Ministry of Water, has continued to have. The JWSR is a forum in which TAWASANET has been presenting issues which, constructively, aimed at contributing to the sector development. CSOs are so much grateful with the forum and will continue to present researched evidences to be taken up by actors for the sector strengthening. Commended issues
P a g e | 86
On behalf of WASH CSOs in Tanzania TAWASANET is commending: i. The immediate response given by the Minister of Water, Hon. Prof. Jumanne
Maghembe, in resolving the WRM issues rose in the TAWASANET equity monitoring report. The prompt action and decision motivates us CSOs to continue working tirelessly with confidence that our contribution is taken into action for the improvement of the sector.
ii. The inclusion of sanitation and hygiene component in the WSDP II informs serious
linkages between Water and Sanitation. This suggests, on the one hand, uplifting of the Sanitation and Hygiene profile in Tanzania during the WSDPII implementation.
iii. The evidenced need for timely communication with the Ministry, instead of waiting for the JWSR. CSOs will strengthen its activeness in the TWGs and collaborate closely with the CSOs focal person at the Ministerial level to ensure smooth sharing of information particularly for those issues which need urgent attention and immediate actions.
iv. There was a raised concern over the role of CSOs to the community especially in dealing with problems such as pollution. Our role is to help communities understand their role and their rights on pollution, and to communicate timely and reliable information to the responsible authorities such as we demonstrated at this meeting. In response to the Minister’s queries on the source of the high pH of 12 in the Msimbazi, Luhanga River at Kigogo, Our full report will be submitted to the Ministry for follow up.
Issues which need further attention Toward the adjournment of the 2014, JWSR, CSOs are still calling for the following sensitive issues to be taken on board during the implementation of the WSDP II: Under the sector of Sanitation and Hygiene we are calling for:
i. Addressing the gaps which we highlighted in the CSOs opening statement, including the Menstrual Hygiene Management in School WASH; the financing; human resources; the unnecessary delays in disbursement; and coordination of implementing actors.
ii. Especially hasten the National Sanitation and Hygiene policy for the future profile of Sanitation and Hygiene particularly financing.
iii. Strengthen the Sanitation and Hygiene coordination at the Ministerial level and pay serious attention at the LGA/district level where NSC is widely implemented at the household and school level.
iv. Timely release of funds for sanitation and hygiene in FY 2014/15 and for the responsible Ministries to hasten implementation of the planned activities.
v. The improvement of monitoring and follow up mechanisms especially at the community level
Under the sector of the Water Resource Management we highlight 4 priorities:
P a g e | 87
i. First, the BWBs and officers need additional support, personnel, equipment, and financial resources to handle their growing and challenging workload.
ii. Second, the basins will also need political backing and authority to coordinate and control water use across government and in the private sector. Investment decisions must be made based on knowledge about water availability and existing uses.
iii. Third, priorities set out on for WRM in Phase II need to match needs on the ground. We ask for better compliance monitoring and enforcement across both pollution control and water use, through a modern, risk based system of regulation which guides limited BWB resources to addressing the biggest risks to people, economy and environment.
iv. Lastly, the Ministry should also reflect to the need for quality as well as quantity in the indicators used to track progress.
We further call for affecting the PPP in accordance with the prevailing demand for improving the sector performance Conclusion This JWSR, 2014 is another chapter for improving the sectoral performance for 2014/2015. The collaboration of multiple stakeholders could largely increase the chances of responding to issues timely and efficiently whenever they arise. CSOs could perform the monitoring and oversight role in the implementation of the WSDPII. However, it needs support and collaboration of the Government, Development Partners, and WASH likeminded stakeholders. Again we congratulate the Ministry on achievements to date but it is our role to push for greater and faster progress so that we address the crushing poverty which persists in Tanzania. We would like your feedback through evaluation forms distributed to inform the next JWSR. We are ready to work in partnership to deliver the water security we all need for a fair water future. It can be done, let’s play our part. Thank you for your attention

Distinguished Participants;
Ladies and Gentlemen;
Good Afternoon!
Key Notes:
IWRMD Plans finalization is a key aspect in ensuring integrated and coordinated crosses sector demand management and water governance. There is serious need to ensure that the 6 IWRMDPs are completed by December as promised and that the foundation for ensuring they are prepared in all basins is laid and sealed;
IWRM needs broader stakeholder involvement at different levels. More emphasis is needed on communication and outreach, especially through documenting WSDP I lessons and success stories as a way of building up momentum for WSDP II;
Climate Change adaptation (and mitigating actions) need to be given more space during dialoging and consensus building;
COWSO registration has been very slow! There is need to ensure that we send fund transfers to LGAs with clear instructions for COWSO registration and capacity building so as each LGA prioritizes it and the activity need to have its own KPIs and should effectively be monitored;
To improve infrastructure monitoring and general rural water supply data management;
updating of WPMS needs to be immediately prioritized at all levels;
Desire to come to a consensus on the “Percentage figures to be maintained for the access to water in rural areas”;
P a g e | 89
Alternative energy options to be more seriously explored (also in smaller urban schemes);
Out of 104 District and Small Town Authorities; 6 still have no boards and boards in 23 authorities have expired. There is need to expedite legal procedures so as to have legally mandated boards for governance in all those towns;
NRW is still high in almost all major towns and old national projects. This needs
considerable amount of investment of resources to mitigate its impacts in concurrency with other WSDP II priorities;
Water sources availability is an issue not only in urban areas but also in rural areas.
Protection and conservation needs to be prioritized during planning and budgeting;
District HQs, Small Towns and National Projects implementation and managerial capacities requires special focus if appropriate procedural and operational features of envisaged investments is going to be executed;
National Sanitation Campaign is now being implemented in 162 LGAs and is making steady progress. There is need to expedite more communication and collaboration of MoW, MoHSW, MoEVT and PMO-RALG at National level; and between stakeholder departments in all LGAs and RSs through a clear, easy to comprehend sanitation and hygiene funds management guideline; followed with a harmonized monitoring, evaluation and reporting template; and
Potentials for PPP/PSP interventions in the water sector during the implementation of WSDP-II.
