No The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) I. PROJECT STATUS AND RATIONALE FOR RESTRUCTURING A. Project status 1. Project background (a) WARCIP Program (i) Recognizing that inefficient telecommunications services were posing a serious obstacle to the region’s economic transformation, the ECOWAS community was keen to address existing sector constraints and develop an efficient West African telecommunications market as a means of promoting regional integration, better resource allocation, economic growth and competitiveness. (ii) Within this context, in December 2010, the World Bank Group launched the West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Program (WARCIP) structured around two main components: (a) creating an enabling environment and supporting institutional strengthening to remove existing legal and regulatory bottlenecks for private sector participation in both national and regional infrastructure development; and (b) supporting connectivity at the national and regional level on an open access basis between landing parties and the private sector consortium leading the development of the 17,0000 km Africa Coast to Europe (ACE) submarine cable system; financing additional links to national and cable landing points; and leveraging cross- border alternative infrastructure (including roads, railways and power transmission infrastructure) to create a seamless communications network between countries in the region. (b) WARCIP in Togo. In 2013, Togo showed strong commitment to opening the telecommunications market to competition, implementing sectoral reforms and revising its legal and regulatory framework based on international best practice. In addition, the Government committed to implementing a PPP and open access framework for connectivity infrastructure. These commitments are yet to be reflected in policy or regulatory decisions. Through the WARCIP project in Togo, support is provided to help the Government implement further reforms for the sector thereby increasing sectoral efficiency. (c) WARCIP in Mauritania. In 2013, Mauritania showed strong commitment to pursuing the liberalization of the telecommunications market through a second wave of sector reforms, including the revision of the legal and regulatory framework based on international best practice. In parallel, the government committed to comply with the PPP and open access principles in deploying a national terrestrial fiber optic backbone that would complement existing links to strengthen infrastructure redundancy and reach underserved areas. 2. Project status in Togo. (a) Implementation status. Following mid-term review (see Aide-Memoire dated September 2016) and post midterm review missions (see Aide- Memoire dated November 2016 and March 2017), the project shows limited progress and continues to suffer from institutional constraints: (i) none of the disbursement conditions have been fulfilled; (ii) overall disbursements remain low (around 10 percent) and are mostly related to administrative costs (see paragraph (c) below); and The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) (iii) important studies for sector development have not been completed. (iv) Concerns by the lack of tangible commitment from the authorities, despite repeated pledges of goodwill. (b) Results Framework. The current Results Framework shows mixed progress toward PDO achievement. Some indicators have already met their targets, but attribution is not clear. Others show little progress and/or poor performance. The proposed restructuring is necessary to realign the activities with the intermediary and project level objectives. (c) Disbursement. With a disbursement rate of only 10.21% after 4 years of implementation, this operation is facing serious disbursement issues. Moreover, out of the $2.8 million disbursed to date, $1.7 million has been disbursed on component 3 (Project Management) to fund the PIU operating costs. This very low disbursement rate is mostly due to issues pertaining to the structure of the disbursement conditions. The proposed restructuring will aim at adjusting these conditions to remove some of the implementation bottlenecks (see section II below). 3. Project status in Mauritania. (a) Implementation status Through the WARCIP project’s support, a new telecom law, aligned with best practice, has been adopted in 2013, and the PPP and open access principles have been translated into practice. A national holding company (SDIN) has been established to own the infrastructure and is now operational. A lease contract was also established between the SDIN and a consortium of private operators (IMT) to operate the national terrestrial fiber optic backbone. However, 16 months before project closing date (i.e. November 30, 2018), the construction contract for the national backbone infrastructure has still not been signed due to significant delays on the procurement process. On July 19, the World Bank issued the no objection on the Bids Evaluation report. The No objection letter mentioned that signing of the contract is conditional to project restructuring given (i) the disengagement of the European Investment Bank as co-financier of the national terrestrial fiber optic backbone and (ii) the need to extend the project’s closing date by 12 months. In addition: - As of October 12, 2017, 3 of the 5 WB disbursement conditions have been met. Although partially achieved (i.e. documentation has been finalized and agreed on, it is pending signature) the two remaining conditions cannot be fully met until the construction contract for the backbone is signed since the amount of that contract needs to be known. - The beneficiary has complied with all the legal covenants and made the counterparts funds fully available. - All studies critical to sector development have been procured and are ongoing with good progress recorded. Feasibility studies for the construction of the national datacenter infrastructure are also underway. (b) Results Framework. The mid-term review preliminary report shows strong improvements in many DO indicators and significant impacts on the project beneficiaries. These results will be confirmed during the upcoming midterm review. (c) Disbursement While disbursement rate is low (19.46%after 4 years of implementation, disbursement will now accelerate following recent No Objection on the BER (spell) and upcoming signing of the contract for the construction of the national backbone. The backbone construction is the Project most important activity, representing around 75% of the total IDA credit amount. The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) B. Rationale for restructuring the project in Togo In light of the implementation status mentioned above, the team has been providing intensive implementation support since 2015, with 4 supervision missions on average per year, and strong support from the CMU and practice management. A detailed action plan with regular reporting and follow-up actions was also put in place in May 2016 and validated by the implementation agency, the PIU and the Bank. In spite of all these efforts, little implementation progress can be reported to date. The PIU remains an efficient project team. The burdensome national procurement procedures have had some impact on the implementation albeit limited. Delays in implementation mostly come from the policy perspective: significant reforms which were planned in the project design have yet to be undertaken. Unfortunately, the Ministry has shown little commitment to pursuing these reforms. From the operational perspective, the key bottlenecks can be attributed to the Ministry of the ICT (implementing agency): (a) The PIU is sometimes diverted from project implementation, and asked to work on side projects. Thus, only a marginal amount of time is spent on the Bank-funded operation; (b) The validation of every procurement stage, regardless of the threshold, requires formal Ministerial review and approval, usually causing significant delays; (c) The validation of all consulting assignments (all deliverables, including interim versions), regardless of the significance of the study, requires formal Ministerial review and approval, usually causing significant delays and adding minimal value. C. Rationale for restructuring the project in Mauritania The rationale for restructuring the project is twofold: (a) Disengagement of the project co-financier: On May 9, 2017, EIB (Co-financier of the project) officially disengaged from the financing of the national backbone infrastructure. As stated in the IDA credit agreement, Part 1.A is designed to be co-financed at 52.5% by WB and 47.5% by EIB; this financing arrangement applies to both the national backbone and the national datacenter without distinction. On May 31, 2017, the Borrower officially requested the WB to increase the IDA financing of the national backbone infrastructure from 52.5% to 100%. The WB budgeted amount dedicated to part 1.A is sufficient to finance 100% of part 1.A without affecting other project components. On June 22, 2017, the EIB and WB agreed that EIB would remain engaged in Part 1.A through the financing of 100% of the construction of the national datacenter. (b) Extensive delays in the backbone construction contract: The closing date is November 30, 2018 and the mentioned-above changes put the project at risk because the remaining time is insufficient to complete the construction of the national backbone. The signing of the contract is expected by mid November, 2017, and the duration of the construction is estimated at 18 months meaning that the national backbone will not be built before April 2019, at the earliest. For this reason, in its letter dated on May 31 2017, the Borrower officially requested the extension of the project closing date by 12 months. The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES A. Change in Togo’s project components. To improve the situation, restructuring includes: i) adjusting the disbursement conditions (see section B.1 below) in order to accelerate the processing of large construction contracts; ii) streamlining the project components (e.g. reducing the number of activities and bundling them where relevant), in order to focus on selected impactful activities; and iii) extending the project closing date, to factor the slow progress. Streamlining project components would imply the modification of Part 2: Creating an Enabling Environment for Connectivity and more particularly the proposed sub-component to address Policy, Market and Regulatory Bottlenecks to Maximize the Benefits of the Proposed Connectivity Agenda. The proposed new distribution of project funds across category (see below) will de facto modify the amount for Cost project component. In the proposed new cost allocation, the uncommitted balance of about CFAF 2.8 billion will be reallocated to component 2 to finance the following four (4) activities: Component 2 - Creating an Enabling Environment for Connectivity Amount in USD Financing of SIN operating cost for the first two years including the monitoring and the quality control of the 400.000 construction Support to the PPP transaction for the management, commercialization and maintenance of the Carrier Hotel 500.000 Technical assistance to promote and strengthen cross-border coordination, to purchase frequency spectrum management regulatory tools at the borders and to prepare bidding documents for the purchase of spectrum 500.000 management equipment Purchase frequency spectrum management regulatory tools and spectrum management equipment 2.300.000 Installation of the observatory and regional regulatory databases in Togo - Communication and dissemination Acquisition of geographic information system (GIS) servers, technical assistance, support and training for integration 1.000.000 and exploitation of GIS for the sharing of infrastructures for digital development of the territory Total 4.700.000 This new set of activities to be implemented under Component 2 are fully in line with the project objective and will directly contribute to the achievement of the PDO. In addition, these activities are the result of consolidation and simplification of the initial activities and have therefore been fully appraised. These activities are also fully eligible to Regional IDA funding: e.g. the frequency spectrum management mobile tools will allow Togo to address issues of overlapping HF networks along its borders, particularly in the dense populated area of the capital city Lomé, close to the Ghana border. B. Change in the Togo’s Financing Agreement 1. Disbursement conditions The overall list of disbursement conditions will not change. However, the combination of the operationalization of the SPV and the PPP into one single condition (in bold below), makes it impossible to fulfill. Therefore, the proposed restructuring will split this condition into two sub-conditions (in red below) in order to respect the necessary sequencing: first operationalize the SPV (condition remains on Category (1) below), and then operationalize the PPP (condition moved to Category (2) below). The rest of the conditions remain the same. Category of expenditure Before Restructuring (in substance) After Restructuring (in substance)  the SPV has been duly created, registered and made Category (1): Works  the SPV and the PPP have been duly created, operational in the territory of the Recipient, including through under Part 1(a) of the registered and made operational in the the appointment of their managers and the adoption of their The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) project (i.e. territory of the Recipient, including through by-laws, in form and substance satisfactory to the Association; establishment of a the appointment of their managers and the  the Main Contractual Agreement, in form and substance neutral 'carrier hotel' in adoption of their by-laws, in form and satisfactory to the Association, has been entered into Lomé) substance satisfactory to the Association; between the Recipient and the SPV;  the Main Contractual Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Association, has been entered into between the Recipient and the SPV;  the PPP Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Association, has been entered between the SPV and the PPP.  the PPP has been duly created, registered and made Category (2): Lease of  the Capacity Purchase Contract, in form and operational in the territory of the Recipient; capacity under Part 1(b) substance satisfactory to the Association, has  the PPP Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the of the project (i.e. been entered into between the SPV or the Association, has been entered between the SPV and the PPP; purchase of capacity) PPP, as the case may be, and the supplier  the Capacity Purchase Contract, in form and substance selected for the delivery of high capacity satisfactory to the Association, has been entered into bandwidth under Part 1 (b) of the Project; between the SPV or the PPP, as the case may be, and the  there shall be furnished to the Association an supplier selected for the delivery of high capacity bandwidth opinion satisfactory to the Association of under Part 1 (b) of the Project; counsel acceptable to the Association  there shall be furnished to the Association an opinion showing that the Capacity Purchase Contract satisfactory to the Association of counsel acceptable to the has been duly authorized on behalf of the Association showing that the Capacity Purchase Contract has SPV or the PPP, as the case may be, and the been duly authorized on behalf of the SPV or the PPP, as the supplier. case may be, and the supplier. . 2. Implementation Plan and Closing date. Some activities will be dropped, others will be consolidated, as described in section A above. However, the scope of each component will not change, and the current PDO will remain achievable after restructuring by the new closing date. As the overall implementation has been significantly delayed, the closing date will be extended by 18 months to May 31, 2020. A summary of the proposed Implementation Plan is as follows: (a) the Disbursement Condition for Category (1) will be immediately fulfilled; (b) the establishment of the carrier hotel/data center will be implemented; (c) the streamlining and consolidation of key studies will allow for a quick implementation/disbursement of Component 2; (d) Disbursement Condition for Category (2) will be fulfilled. Overall, this plan and new sequencing is expected to quickly improve disbursement. There is no overdue audit report. In order to address the issues mentioned in section I.B above, the project will carry out an in-depth assessment and close monitoring of the PIU operational aspects over the next 6 months (i.e. technical and functional audit). Based on the outcomes of this review, the Bank may propose to change some of the project institutional arrangements to allow the PIU to focus on its core mandate. Two activities remain critical to the project’s success: (a) the completion of the bidding process and recruitment of the contractor for the construction of the carrier hotel; and (b) the finalization of the PPP contract with SIN for the commercialization of the international capacity. The proposed restructuring (reallocation, closing date extension, and change in Disbursement Conditions) as well as the upcoming DPO (see point 4 below) will directly contribute to the execution of these two activities. 3. Reallocation among expenditure categories. As described in Section IV, the proposed restructuring includes a reallocation of undisbursed funds among the expenditure categories to be consistent with the change in activities proposed in Section A above. The proposed reallocation of funds is slightly different from the one proposed in the request letter for the following reason: (i) the initial request is dated January 2017 and proposed a significant rebalance of funds between categories. The team The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) carried out a thorough assessment and appraisal of the proposed reallocation during the February, March and July 2017 missions. This assessment was supported by experts recruited by the Project and the team concluded that the reallocation of funds should be adjusted as presented in the Restructuring Paper. These new estimations were discussed, agreed on, and documented in the Aide Mémoire of the final appraisal mission conducted in Lome July 25- 31. 4. Addressing regulatory issues through the up-coming DPO. The WARCIP and DPO team are closely working together to coordinate both interventions and leverage the budget- support instrument. The proposed DPO focuses on the improvement of the regulation of wholesale (international) capacity, and includes prior actions pertaining to the restructuring of ARCEP, and the development of a reference interconnection offer (RIO) for Togo Telecom. This will result in cheaper international capacity (the objective in the proposed DPO result indicator section is to halve the price for international wholesale bandwidth from 136 to 68 euro/mbps/month), which, in turn, will allow the restructured project to purchase more leased capacity (under Part 1 (b) of the Project), and reallocate some of the savings to the construction of the carrier hotel (under Part 1 (a) of the Project see table below). In addition, these two activities are directly linked to the Disbursement Conditions.

Change in the Mauritania’s Financing Agreement The proposed restructuring of the WARCIP project implies a slight change in project component: Part 1A of the Financing Agreement will no longer finance the Data Center. This activity will be entirely financed by EIB. Following the proposed restructuring, new Part 1A(i) will only finance the backbone infrastructure at 100%. Part 1A(ii) will refer to the Data Center, still part of the project, with no IDA allocation. The Financing Agreement will be revised through an Amendment Letter that provide an updated Disbursement Table (see Disbursement Estimates section at the end of this document) and the new Closing Date of November 30, 2019. The Implementation Plan is not modified. The proposed restructuring will allow the client to sign the construction contract for the backbone. This will in turn allow for the fulfillment of the two remaining disbursement conditions, and thus will speed up project implementation. After the restructuring, the PDO will be achievable by the new closing date. There is no overdue audit report. The new Category Schedule of the Financing Agreement will be modified as follows: Categories before retructuring (in SDR) Before Categories after retructuring (in SDR) After Before restructuring After restructuring restructuring Financing restructuring Financing (%) (%) (1A) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER (1A) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER 100% 14,200,000 52% PART 1A PART 1A(i) 14,200,000 The World Bank West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Project - APL 2 (P123093) (1B) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER 100% (1B) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER 100% 150,000 150,000 PART 1B PART 1B (1C) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER 100% (1C) WORKS & GOODS, UNDER 100% 70,000 70,000 PARTS 2 & 3 PARTS 2 & 3 (2) NON CONSULTING 100% (2) NON CONSULTING 100% SERVICES, CONSULTING SERVICES, CONSULTING 1,300,000 1,300,000 SERVICES, OP COSTS & SERVICES, OP COSTS & TRAINING UNDER PARTS 2 & 3 TRAINING UNDER PARTS 2 & 3 (3) Refund of Preparation 100% (3) Refund of Preparation 100% 1,380,000 1,380,000 Advance Advance TOTAL AMOUNT 20,100,000 TOTAL AMOUNT 20,100,000 III.
