Due to time limitations, the findings from the HLA are not based on assessments of all HH but rather on a desk review of all resettled HH and interviews with a sample of resettled HH (see Section 3.2 for details). In this regard this document is referred to as an Intermediate Household Level Audit (Intermediate HLA). The Intermediate HLA includes a set of recommendations which will facilitate the finalisation of the resettlement activities in a way consistent with national regulation and the World Bank OP 4.12. In order to identify the compensation gaps and necessary remedial measures for individual resettled HH a full household level survey will be undertaken within the first six months of 2015. The full survey will guide the individual HH retroactive payments and support (as necessary) and facilitate the implementation of the recommendations listed in this Intermediate HLA. The objective of the Intermediate HLA is to establish a basis on which the formulation of a program of retro-active support and/or compensation payments will be based and therefore will provide a basis to ensure that entitlements under the projects’ Resettlement Action Plan (2014) are applied to those affected. 1.2 Scope The Intermediate HLA applies to the HH:  Affected by Stage 1 resettlement activities of Rogun HPP;  that have already received compensation payments (in part or in whole); and  have initiated or completed the resettlement process. In the framework of the Intermediate HLA, the following interrelated tasks have been implemented: 1. A listing of all HH that have received compensation payments and that have initiated or completed the resettlement process in Stage 1; 2. A desk review of compensation provided to affected HH (based on a sample of the total affected HH) to provide details on when and in what form payments have been made, and whether they comply with applicable Tajik requirements and the entitlement matrix within the projects Resettlement Action Plan (RAP); and 3. A detailed household survey of a sample of the affected HH to determine any specific issues, compensation gaps or problems typically experienced by those affected. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 2 2 PROJECT BACKGROUND 2.1 Project overview The proposed Rogun HPP is located approximately 110 km from Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan. The Project is located on the Vakhsh River, which merges with the Pyanj River to form the Amu Darya River. The selected dam site is in a narrow gorge with steep flanks, approximately 6.5 km from Rogun town and 70 km upstream of the Nurek Dam. The Rogun dam site is located in the Rasht region which has 7 districts: Fayzabad, Rogun, Rasht, Tavildara, Tojikobod and Jirgital. Figure 1 - Outline of Rogun reservoir with affected districts Source: RAP, 2014 2.2 Project history and current status The Rogun HPP was first conceived in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s as part of the regional development of what are now several independent states. The original purpose of the Rogun project has evolved from supporting regional irrigation and hydropower generation, to the present plan, which calls for Rogun to serve as a multi- purpose project providing power, flow regulation, flood control and sediment retention. Construction of Rogun HPP began in 1982 and was interrupted in 1993 after a dam failure, in addition to the hard economic and political situation of the Republic of Tajikistan at that time. Construction re-started in 2008, but since 2012 only care and maintenance activities have been carried out pending finalisation of the technical, economic, environmental and social studies. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 3 The original design for the Rogun HPP comprised the following key components:  A 335m high embankment dam with a clay core and a crest at elevation 1300 masl;  An underground power house (installed capacity per the original design: 3,600 MW) and transformer units, with associated diversion tunnels. The Directorate of the Flooding Zone of Rogun HPP, herein referred to as the Resettlement Unit (RU), is responsible for the design, implementation and monitoring of the resettlement activities of Rogun HPP in coordination with other government ministries and agencies. 2.3 Project Area interested by the Household Level Audit: Stage 1 resettlement Stage 1 resettlement area covers 6 villages located within the construction site for dam and power house, and 1 village at a low elevation which will be submerged as soon as impoundment will start (villages located in the so-called "risk zone").

Rogun HPP dam Source: Elaboration from RAP, 2014 Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 4 3 METHODOLOGY 3.1 Secondary data collection and analysis Evidence from the RU on the number of HH relocated to date and the percentage of compensation delivered has been collected and analysed in December 2014. An inventory of all HH that have received compensation payments and initiated or completed the resettlement process in Stage 1 has been compiled using the following information:  A list of all the HH affected by Stage 1 resettlement activities and their relocation status (i.e. relocated or not relocated);  the level of compensation payment per village and per HH as a percentage of the total HH compensation payment;  40 Technical Household Passport (THP) out of 289 listing the compensation of assets provided to those affected. A desk review was carried out on 40 THP and on all the HH listed in the inventory compiled. The information provided by the RU allowed the identification of 3 key groups of HH, as shown in Figure 3 below. Each group gives an indicative overview of the status of the compensation received and resettlement progress of each HH (see section 4.1.1 for details). Group 1 and 2 include the HH that have received partial or full compensation and started or completed the resettlement activities. Based on this criteria, 287 HH represent the sampling frame used to drawn a representative sample of the population for the administration of the socio-economic survey questionnaire. Figure 3 - Household Sampling Groups GROUP 1 GROUP 2 Resettlement process NO Resettlement process completed and partial COMPLETED and full compensation delivered compensation delivered 30 to 99 % payment 100% pamynet delivered 124 HH delivered 163 HH GROUP 3 Resettlement process NO completed and compensation NO delived Total HH affected 289 Total HH selected as sampling frame for the HLA 287 0% payment 2 HH Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 5 A total of 2 HH have not initiated the resettlement process and compensation has not been delivered. These two HH have therefore been excluded from the sampling frame1. 3.2 Primary data collection and analysis A stratified sampling design has been used to draw a representative sample of the population to be interviewed with the socio-economic survey questionnaire2. The HH selected for the Intermediate HLA have been divided into 5 strata (i.e. groups). These groups show the level of payment delivered to each HH, which is directly linked to progress in the construction of the HH main premises and indirectly linked to the resettlement progress (i.e. 60% second payment and 90% third payment indicate an advancement in the construction activities and 100% the completion of the HH premises with the consequent relocation to the new site). Each HH has been assigned to one group and separate samples have been selected from each group. The sample size of each group was proportional to the population size of the group, with the aim of increasing the precision of the survey estimates. Each HH has been assigned a code number and then randomly selected. Table 1 – Intermediate HLA sample frame and sample size per stratum TOTAL HH Sample size per stratum 0-30 first payment 2 1 31-60 second payment 53 22 61-90 third payment 25 10 91-99 last payment ongoing to closure 44 18 100 completed 163 68 TOTAL 287 120 Source: Elaboration of RU data A sample of 120 HH (41% of the total number of HH affected by Stage 1 resettlement) have been interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire3 by a team of 6 1 The ToR indicates the following: “The HLA does not include those households which have not received any payments to date and have not initiated the resettlement process. These are covered under a separate census and socio-economic survey. (…)The consultant will update the draft RAP to incorporate findings from the census. This may include updating additional sections of the RAP”. Following the review of the data provided by the RU only 2 HH out of 289 responded to the census requirements as described in the ToR, therefore a different approach has been used in the administration and analysis of the census data (See Annex 1, Intermediate HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis). Additionally, in order to understand why these 2 HH did not start the relocation process vis-à-vis interviews have been carried out and potential grievances and recommendations to address the grievances shared with the RU (see Annex 4). 2 See Annex 3, Intermediate HLA Questionnaire. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 6 enumerators and 1 survey coordinator, between December 1 and 7, 2014. The team visited all six original villages and all the resettlement sites.4 The questionnaire was structured in 7 sections: 1. HH overview and modification. 2. Land and agriculture. 3. HH compensation package. 4. Transportation. 5. HH income and project impact. 6. Resettlement site and relocation status. 7. Engagement. 3 See Annex 3, Intermediate HLA Questionnaire. 4 See Annex 2, Intermediate HLA Site visit photos. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 7 4 FINDINGS 4.1 Affected households and resettlement status in December 2014, Stage 1 The data provided by the RU shows the status of the resettlement process as partially completed with 163 HH (56%) relocated to the new site in 2014 and 126 HH (44%) expecting to be relocated in 2015 (see Figure 4). Table 2 shows the distribution per Village of origin of the HH that will be affected by Stage 1 resettlement.

Each HH has been given the option to choose the site of destination, as confirmed by 97% of the HH interviewed. The same 97% of the HH interviewed indicated that they had been given information on the resettlement site. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 8 Figure 5- Schematic outlook of the village of origin and destination under Stage 1 resettlement 5 Source: Team elaboration 4.1.1 Status of compensation and progress in the resettlement activities 287 out of 289 HH have received compensation (in part or in whole) and have initiated or completed the resettlement process. The status of the construction activities of the HH premises is monitored by the RU and directly linked with the disbursement of the compensation package allocated to each HH, therefore the payment status from the RU data gives an indirect indication of the status of resettlement of each HH:  1% HH received 30% of the compensation package, which indicates the starting point for the construction activities.  19% HH received 60% of the total compensation package, which indicates some advancement in the construction process.  9% received 90% of the total compensation package, which indicates advancement in the construction process.  15% are in the process of closing the construction activities and reaching 100% of the total amount due by the Project.  56% received 100% of their compensation package and represent those who relocated in 2014. 5 5 out of 38 HH from Kishrog and Mirog selected Toychi and Tursunzade as site of relocation.

The Intermediate HLA data shows the following scenario (based on the perception of the HH):  43% HH have relocated.  35% HH feel they will relocate in 2015.  22% HH feel they are likely to relocate between 2016-2019. The main reason given by the HH interviewed to justify potential delays in the expected date of relocation (i.e. relocation between 2016-2019) is the high cost of the construction materials and labour force needed to finalise the construction of their premises.

No one ha s the right to deprive [a citizen of] and limit the citizen's right to property. The confiscation of private property by the State for public needs is permitted only on the basis of law and with the consent of the owner with the full compensation of its value. Material and moral damage inflicted on a person (личности) as a result of illegal actions by State organs, social associations, political parties, or individuals is compensated in accordance with the law at their expense” Article 13 “the land, its resources, water, airspace, fauna and flora, and other natural resources are exclusively the property of the State, and the State guarantees their effective use in the interests of the people”. Land Code and Civil Code Compensation for land withdrawal and other impacts due to public interest projects are regulated by the Land Code RT (LC), the Civil Code RT (CC) and various normative-legal acts, which govern land withdrawal, land allotment and impacts compensation to the citizens. The withdrawal/allotment of lands and resettlement is based on the principles for compensation for losses incurred by land users or users of other registered rights connected to land when the land plot is withdrawn for state and public need. Evidence has been collected in collaboration with the RU about the compensation process and the level of support given by the Project to those affected by Stage 1 resettlement (this includes both secondary and primary data). A particular focus has been applied to the following items:  Cash for lost housing and associated lost assets including trees.  Land for land.  Transportation.  One-time payment and Lex credit6.  Salvage material from the original house.  Construction material (selected villages).  Right to use the timber.  Utilities and infrastructure in the village of destination (reconstruction of all social, economic and cultural infrastructure, for example water supply, health centres, education facilities, markets, roads and paths, electricity lines, etc.). More clarity will be needed from the full HLA on the following items:  Special (official) support to vulnerable groups.  Harvest/crops compensation.  Cash for seedlings for planting new trees. 4.2.1 Compensation in cash and Technical Household Passport Relevant authorities have calculated the amount of compensation to be received by each HH affected by Stage 1 resettlement, based on an asset inventory and the items listed in the individual Technical Household Passport (THP). 6 See par. 4.2.1.6. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 11 The 40 THP analysed were finalised between 2009 and 2013, with an increase in the level and quality of information over time. Table 3 and 4 show a sample of a THP. The list of items and related values included in each THP comprises compensation for lost housing and associated assets, including fruit trees. Houses and structures are valued at market value at the time of loss and the cost of labour is included in the figure. No direct references to transition expenses and costs, and number of years to regrow fruit trees are included in the THP.7 Table 3- Valuation table extracted from one technical passport Table for the revaluation of the house of Mr.XXXX situated in Murabad district, Komsomolobod village counsel, Chorsada Street, 12.11.2012 The primary cost in the year of starting of the use total area constructed in m2 quantity year of starting of use according to the technical market value passport n. 582 dated name of buildings and facilities 25.06.2012 1 main building 97 1 0 8739 140553 2 corridor 43.2 1 0 3125 31320 3 hen coop hen house 11.8 1 0 496 566 4 front balcony 22 1 0 409 2134 5 cow house 19.2 1 0 308 2784 6 cow house 51 1 0 1785 9395 7 shed 84 1 0 1562 8148 8 bath (not toilet) 18 1 0 824 6338 9 storeroom, tool shade 24 1 0 1116 7784 10 storeroom, tool shade 12 1 0 558 2892 11 toilet 1 0 319 300 12 traditional bread hoven 4 0 298 400 13 water supply point 1 0 61 250 14 wall made of iron net (fence) with wooden poales 248 0 1350 1240 15 apple 27 0 0 1215 16 pear 17 0 0 1020 17 nut tree 7 0 0 560 18 peach tree 5 0 0 120 19 apricot 10 0 0 500 20 mulberry tree 49 0 0 1470 21 sour cherries 22 0 0 440 total x x x 20950 219429 Table 4-List of some of the types of items included and evaluated in the THP Asphalt Hen-house Veranda (terrace) Basement Inventory room Wall (stone made) Bathroom Kitchen Water pipe Baton path Living rooms (living space) WC Cattle or shed, livestock-house National stone for bread making Garage Corridors Shed Gate Door (iron made) Trees (forward) Grid 7 Replacement cost as indicated in the RAP: “For houses and other structures, replacement cost is the market cost of the materials to build a replacement structure with an area and quality equivalent to the affected structure, or to repair a partially affected structure, plus the cost of transporting building materials to the construction site, plus the cost of any labour and contractors' fees, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes. It also includes costs for levelling or other preparation for new construction or use. Costs are calculated based on the time at which the asset is being replaced, if not, inflation is taken into account in calculating costs.” The RU stated that the replacement costs as per RAP have been included in the compensation package and that evidence can be provided. The outstanding issue identified during the intermediate HLA and that will be addressed in the full HLA is the inflation, as described in the following sections. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 12 4.2.1.1 Gaps in the asset evaluation and access to compensation There is an average gap of approximately 30 months between the date of finalisation of the assets evaluation of a sample of 16 THP8 and the date of access to the compensation provided to these HH during the survey. The gap between the valuation of the compensation amount and the access to the payment declared by the HH interviewed (if due to the Project administrative timeframe), could trigger the need for retroactive compensation due to market price increases (i.e. adjustment in compensation value for inflation to reflect local market conditions). The determination of the need for retroactive compensation will be made through the full HLA. 4.2.1.2 Compensation amount When interviewed, HH recalled discrepancies between the amount officially allocated in each respective THP and the amount received. Three out of 16 HH declaring a lower amount than the one assigned and the remaining 13 HH an amount higher than the one assigned. This information could be biased due to the sensitivity of the question (compensation) or result from a lack of knowledge of the total compensation amount, which is disbursed in phases and agreed in a few cases several years before the finalisation of construction activities (see section 4.2.1.5). Table 5 – Time laps between access to compensation and finalisation (expected or achieved) of construction activities Frequency % Less than 1 month 20 16.7 From 2 to 7 months 27 22.5 From 8 months to 1 year 27 22.5 From 1 year to 3 years 24 20 More than 3 years 22 18.3 TOTAL 120 100 Source: Survey data 4.2.1.3 Compensation management There are often a number of families within each household. House plots on the relocation site were distributed to each family within an affected HH (see section 4.2.2.3). During the site visit it became evident that a number of families have started to construct several individual houses on the assigned plots. This approach is likely to elicit delays in the construction activities and in the relocation process, as the compensation provided for the re- construction of one individual house may not be sufficient for the completion of more than 8 To identify the time-lapse between the evaluation of the assets and the access to compensation, the dates of evaluation of assets indicated in 40 THP have been crossed with the dates of access to compensation declared by the HH interviewed with the intermediate HLA questionnaire. Only 16 HH out of 40 provided the answer to this question and to the question related to the amount of compensation received (see also section 4.2.1.2.). Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 13 one unit. It also means that newly constructed houses are likely to be smaller in size as the funds provided for one house are divided amongst family members. The RU is monitoring the construction activities of each HH and family to try to manage this issue. 4.2.1.4 Delays and lack of funds for construction activities 94% of the HH interviewed with the survey questionnaire declared that the compensation received for the house is/was no sufficient to build the new house. The key reasons provided by this are the cost for material and labour. With the aim of understanding this issue, data relating to the, “amount allocated”, “amount still available in the compensation package” and “money still to be spent by the HH to finalise the house construction” has been assessed and led to the following findings:  44% of those who did not relocate yet claim/declare that an average of 30,000 TJS (5,847USD9) will be spent in the finalisation of the relocation and construction activities.  56% of those who relocated already claim/declared that an average of 45,000 TJS (8,771USD) was spent in the finalisation of the relocation and construction activities. Table 6 - Average amount needed to finalise the relocation and construction activities % Average amount needed to Average amount needed to complete house construction complete house construction TJS USD Relocated 56 45,000 8,771 Not relocated 44 30,000 5,847 TOTAL 100 Source: Survey data It is evident from these findings that there is a discrepancy between estimated costs for relocation and construction and actual costs. The key reason is likely to be one or more of the following:  Compensation value does not reflect the local market conditions due to the impact of inflation (i.e. increased cost of labour and material).  Higher grade building material has been used in a few cases for the construction of the new HH premises.  Families are building in a few cases more than one unit in parallel with the compensation received for the construction of the main HH premises. 4.2.1.5 Payment process With regard to the payment system of cash compensation defined in the THP, each HH has been given access to a bank account in which the amount reported in the THP is deposited 9 Conversion rate at December 14, 2014 (1TJS 0.194928USD). Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 14 and disbursed in 4 phases (30%, 30%, 30% and 10%). At the start of construction the HH is entitled to access the 1st 30%. Each HH will have access to the next tranche of payment if the RU, which monitors the construction activities, recognises progress in the construction of the HH main premises. The last tranche of 10% is disbursed once the house is completed and the HH can relocate. The construction progress monitoring system is in place to mitigate the risk of mismanagement of the compensation allocated for the construction activities. Right of property for the new house will be provided when the old house is torn down. This is a mitigation measure to discourage attempts to sell or rent the compensated asset. 4.2.1.6 Lex credits and one-time payment The Ministry of Labour makes available to each family a Lex Credit for the total amount of 3000 TJS (584USD). Requesting such credit is an option. In cases when the Lex credit is requested, there is no obligation to pay back 50% of the amount received, while the remaining 50% shall be repaid with no interest rate. A One Time Payment is also provided and comprises 100 TJS (19USD) for the HH and 50 TJS (9USD) per family member, with no obligation to pay back the amount received. From survey data 90% of the HH interviewed claim that they have not received such credits/amounts, while the RU claims that these credits have been disbursed. This discrepancy should be explored further in the full HLA. 4.2.2 Compensation in kind 4.2.2.1 Material In addition to the compensation calculated in the THP, HH have been allowed to use part of their original housing material for the construction of the new house. Specific measures also apply to Kishrog and Mirog10 where the original housing is of low market value, so sand, gravel, and stone11 have been provided to encourage the building of new houses on the host site. HH also have the right to use the timber of all trees owned and already compensated. All the HH interviewed confirmed that they have been allowed to use the material of their previous premises. HH in Kishrog and Mirog also declared that they will receive compensation in kind in the form of construction material on top of cash compensation in 60% of the cases. In the remaining 40% of cases HH declared that they will receive compensation in cash. 10 The relocation activities of 32 out of 38 HH which will relocate from Kishrog and Mirog to Yoli Garmoba will be managed directly by Rogun Hydropower Power Plant (HPP) which will provide additional support to those who received a low amount of cash compensation due to the lower value of the premises they occupy. The RU will work in close collaboration with HPP, where possible, monitoring the status of the relocation activities and payments. 5 out of 38 HH from Kishrog and Mirog selected as site of relocation Toychi and Tursunzade, and therefore the relocation process will be managed by the RU. 11 5 tons cement (5000 TJS or nearly 1000USD), plus sand, gravel and stone as much as HH needs, including delivery, at no cost. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 15 4.2.2.2 Transportation Improvements in the provision of transportation services to move HH have been recorded. The service is now directly managed by the Project and tailored to the HH needs, which where underestimated in the initial stages. The survey data shows that 41% of the HH interviewed will use this support in a later stage, when the main HH premise construction will be finalised. Additionally, 85% of the HH interviewed declared that the transportation service was/will be provided to them free of charge, 81% of those who used the service so far are very or completely satisfied with the service provided, 5% declared that the service provided was not sufficient to transport their belongings. The full HLA should examine the impacts of the deficiencies in provision of transport – identifying any household level losses and required compensation to cover losses.

From the date of assignment, a family has up to 2 years to start activities to keep such rights12. All the structures constructed on the assigned plots are the property of the family and can be sold or rented. Each family in the HH affected by Stage 1 resettlement has been provided a house plot in the site of relocation. The project offered alternative relocation villages prior to assigning the house plot and provided information about the new location. However, the extent to which the information was sufficient vis-à-vis availability of land, cost of living, etc., is not known. Additionally, each family will be provided with legal user right documents without the obligation to build a structure on the house plots assigned by the Project and provision of replacement land will include agricultural land, and pasture land13. The HHs that chose a location near urban centres have had to take into account the possibility of less available land for agricultural and pasture activities, due to increased land 12 Land Code, Article 37. Grounds for termination of the right of land use: “The right to use the whole plot of land or its part shall be terminated in the following cases: (…) if land users discontinue their activities (…) non -use of the land plot assigned for agricultural production for one year and for two years for non- agricultural purposes (…)”. 13 See RAP, and LRP 2014. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 16 pressures and values. However, building a new house close to an urban centre will have a higher market value. The survey data confirmed that house plots have been assigned to each individual family. However, it is clear that there are differences in size of land being used which the HH consider to be smaller in the new location. During the site visit it was recorded that a few HH in the village of origin are informally using land close to their house plots. Therefore in a few cases the affected house plots were larger than those in the resettlement sites because the HHs were using both their official allocation and informally using additional land as their house plot. On the other hand, house plots assigned to families relocating in Tursunzade, Dangara, Novi Saidon, Yoligarmova, and Rogun are 800 m2 whereas house plots assigned in Rudaki are 1000 m2, therefore depending on the site of relocation chosen by those affected differences in the size of the house plots were expected14. To be further assessed by the RU if HH have been properly informed about the procedure for accessing agricultural and pasture land and about the size of the house plots in the site of relocation. Further outreach on accessing land is required and included in the implementation of the Livelihood Restoration Plan (to be implemented in 2015). Figure 10 shows that the documentation related to the right of use over the house plot has been provided to 33% of the HH interviewed, independently from their relocation status. The RU stated that they give documentation to the HH when all members have fully moved. In addition, the documents are provided only to the head of households many of whom are migrants out of the country. Additionally, for the rights over the house it will be provided only when the previous premises will be destroyed to avoid them renting what was compensated already. Details on provision of documents at the household level will need to be assessed during the detailed household level survey. Figure 10 – Rights of use on the allocated house plots Yes, I obtained them at no cost 33% No 67% Source: Survey data 4.2.2.4 Harvesting Under the RAP, HH are entitled to cash compensation equalling an annual harvest from each tree for a number of years, until the new trees planted at the new site can replaced these harvests. 14 See RAP, 2014. Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 17 Additionally, the affected HH are allowed the use the land plot in the village of origin until the relocation process is completed and/or the Project construction activities started. Therefore, HH are encouraged to start cultivation activities in the new site while still using the site of origin. Survey data shows that 92% of the HH interviewed cultivated their land in the village of origin, but only 20% have continued/plan on continuing this activities after relocation. Only 5 HH gave a reason for this decision, such as the size of the land in the new site that is smaller than in the previous location and the lack of water for irrigation. Remedial measures detailed in Chapter 6 include the provision of replacement land taking into consideration the definition of replacement cost. 78% of the HH cultivating the land in the village of origin declared that the Project provided in cash and in kind compensation for the impact on harvesting, the remaining 14% compensation in cash only. This was in a form of i) allowing the HH to cut the trees already compensated, ii) use the land in the old site for cultivation activities in parallel with the land assigned in the new site, and iii) the compensation in cash for trees listed in the THP.

Health service, school, electricity, and accessibility for drinking water have been evaluated by a majority of the HH interviewed as better than before. The site visit confirmed consistent advancement in the finalisation of a few new sites of relocation16. 15 The Livelihood Restoration Plan (LRP) prepared for the Project will address this issue if it will be confirmed that this impact is directly due to the project activities. 16 See Annex 2, Site visit photos.

As noted in section 4.2 more details on the support to those vulnerable is required and should be explored in the full HLA. The support provided is mostly the one prescribed by the national legislation. The list will be finalised by the RU at the end of February 2015. 5.1.4 Stakeholder Engagement The level of disclosure of information provided by the project has received mixed ratings. . Table 7 shows the level of satisfaction on the information provided to the affected HH in Household Level Resettlement Audit - Intermediate Page 20 relation to entitlement under the RAP prepared by the Project. 25.8% of the HH interviewed do not know the procedure that should be followed to raise comments and concerns about the Project.

Household Level Resettlement Audit (HLA), Annex 1 Intermediate HLA ANNEX 1 CENSUS AND SURVEY SOCIO- ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA ANALYSIS Household Level Resettlement Audit (HLA), Annex 1 PRINTING BLANK PAGE HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1 ANNEX 1. HLA CENSUS AND SURVEY SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA ANALYSIS 1. Introduction Following the review of the data provided by the Resettlement Unite (RU) only 2 households out of 289 responded to the census requirements as described in the HLA Term of Reference (ToR)19, therefore the approach selected was the following: i) Households were selected based on whether they have received less than 60% of the agreed compensation. ii) A representative sample of 21 households was selected for inclusion in the census and questions were asked relating to demographics, education, health care, occupations, access to land, income and expenditure. iii) The data analysis was carried out using the data collected with the census questionnaire (21 Households HH) and when relevant the survey questionnaire (120 HH) 20. For comparative purposes, specific information is also included from the 2011 census. The aim of this approach is to understand any differences or similarities between households that are either in the process of relocation or have already completed the resettlement process. Information is presented on household composition, income and expenditure, occupation, land use and access, education and vulnerable groups21. 2. Summary of principal findings  Generally household size is bigger and access to land is less in the relocation site than village of origin. This is primarily due to an increase in the number of births and the relocation of families into an urban setting, where there is less space available to each household.  Those that have not completed resettlement continue to have access to more than one area of land, which is primarily an area for housing, in addition to an area of farmland.  Wages and remittances are a key source of income for all households, although income levels vary from less than 500 Somoni to over 3000 Somoni a month.  Despite only a small number of households reporting farming as their main occupation, all households have livestock and grow produce for household consumption. This is primarily staples such as potatoes, tomatoes and onions. Produce is only sold if there is a surplus. 19 The ToR indicates the following: “The HLA does not include those households which have not received any payments to date and have not initiated the resettlement process. These are covered under a separate census and socio-economic survey. (…) The consultant will update the draft RAP to incorporate findings from the census. This may include updating additional sections of the RAP”. 20 The census questionnaire includes the same set of variables, with a few exceptions, of the questionnaire used in the census carried out in 2011 to keep consistency in the approach and allow longitudinal data analysis. The survey questionnaire is included in Annex 3 of the HLA. 21 The HLA Annex 1 was prepared in collaboration of Katie Thompson. Page 39 HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1  A quarter of households reported having a vulnerable member of the household and 14% of census households reported being very poor.  All of the women household members reported being housewives, with 15% of male respondents reporting ‘worker’ as their main occupation and an additional 15% unemployed. 3. Detailed findings 3.1 Household Composition Households are comprised of family members, usually parents and their children. A quarter of households have 5 or fewer members, with almost half of all households reporting between 6 and 8 members. This was found to be the same for respondents to both the survey and the census.

This is primarily due to two or more families living together in one household. Forty-three percent of survey respondents reported living with more than one family in the same household. This figure has not changed when compared with information from the 2011 census where the majority of households consisted of 2 families. In 2011, the only location where there are on average 3 families per household is Chorsada.

Of those that reported a change in household size, only 5% have seen a decrease with the majority of change resulting in an increase in household size (44%). This is as a result of an increase in births within families resulting in a higher number of children in the surveyed population. Figure 3: Change in Household Size Yes, increased 44% Yes, decreased 51% No, is the same 5% Source: Survey Women and men are evenly divided within the local population and the majority of households have a male head (80%). The number of female-headed households is significantly higher in the surveyed households, when compared with the census information where a female household head was only found in one incidence, compared to 20% of surveyed households. Page 41 HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1 The high number of female-headed households in the surveyed population could be a result of the large number of male household members working abroad in order to support the families that remain in the study area. This is discussed in more detail in Section 0 below. Over three quarters of household heads are aged over 40 (77%), with almost half aged between 40 and 60 years old (46%). 3.2 Income and Expenditure Waged employment is a significant source of income for census households, followed by labour migration. Remittances received from family members working abroad are the main income source of income for 22% of census households, however, in total 38% of households reported receiving money from abroad. The amount received every year varies from 3000 Somoni to 40,000 Somoni. Figure 4: Source of Income 4% 11% Wages Labour Migration 11% Farming 52% Pension & Grants Other 22% Source: Household Census Households included in the census reported that, although waged employment is an important income source, it is common for only one member of the household to earn an income (57% of census households).

Over half of households reported earning less than 1000 Somoni (56%), with just 11% earning 3000 Somoni or more.

The majority of households (87%) spend between 200 and 1000 on food each month. The second largest expenditure is clothing, with 30% of households spending between 500-1000 Somoni per month. Although incomes are relatively low, the majority of households (74%) reported in the census that they are middle class, neither rich nor poor. Poor households were reported in 10% of households, with an additional 14% considering themselves very poor. Page 44 HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1 Figure 9: Socioeconomic Status 10% 14% Poor Very poor Middle 76% Source: Household Census 3.3 Occupation Occupations are divided amongst genders, with all women reporting their main occupation as ‘housewife’, although this does include agricultural duties, in addition to working in the home. Unemployment amongst male respondents is relatively high with 15% of household members currently not in work, as show in Figure 10 below. Figure 10: Occupation Other Student Unemployed Occupation Worker Housewife Labur Migrant Pensioner Teacher (servant) Farmer 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Number of HH Members Source: Household Census Only a small number of respondents reported farming as their main occupation, however, agricultural production for household consumption was reported in all households. All census households have livestock, which are primarily cattle, goats, sheep and chickens. Agricultural production for household consumption includes staples such as potatoes, tomatoes and onions. Page 45 HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1 Livestock are also an important source of security and a form of saving for households. The majority of households (90%) reported that if they do not have sufficient food they sell livestock, over all other income generating activities. Households that have been relocated reported a change in their agricultural activities following resettlement. Survey respondents reported that of the 93% of the households that were cultivating land prior to the relocation, only 20% have continued after they have been resettled. 3.4 Land Access and Use The land used for housing is all less than 1ha, with almost a quarter of household survey respondents (24%) stating that their homes are on a 0.15ha plot of land and an additional 15% on a plot of 0.5ha. Figure 11: Size of Land per Household .50 .40 .30 Size of Land (ha) .25 .20 .19 .15 .14 .10 .08 .07 0,0 5,0 10,0 15,0 20,0 % of Households Source: Household Census The majority of households reported having access to land outside of the area surrounding the homestead, which is often used for farming or presidential land. The size of this additional land varies, although over half is under 1ha (53%). The largest proportion of households reported that the land is exactly 1ha and only 7% has access to 2ha. Households that have already been relocated reported that in general they have access to less land in the new location when compared to their area of origin. Page 46 HLA Census and Survey socio-economic and demographic data analysis – Annex 1 Figure 12: HH Plot Size Before Figure 13: HH Plot Size After Relocation Relocation 0% 17% 24% 33% 0.61 - 0.7 <0.10 ha 0.71 - 0.8 0.11 - 0.5 ha 0.81 - 0.9 0.51 - 1 ha >1.00 76% >1.00 ha 50% Source: Survey 3.5 Education Over half of all census respondents (60%) reported completing secondary education, either to grade 9 or 11 and an additional 19% have a primary level education. Only a small number of household members reported having a higher education, either through vocational training or a degree and 9% of respondents have no formal education at all. Figure 14: Level of Education Degree Higher Education Level Vocational Secondary (11th Grade) Secondary (9th Grade) Primary None 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 % of Household Members Source: Household Census Educational attainment can be linked to the distance needed to travel to schools or colleges. The majority of households have to travel less than 1km to reach a school, with only 5% travelling 2Km and an additional 10% travelling 3km.

An additional 14% of census households are also considered vulnerable as they are considered very poor. This means that they often do not have the resources required to cope with change.
