The GOSL have shown good commitment and ownership of the project. Since project approval, several key procurement items have progressed slowly and the Secretary has taken appropriate action to mitigate the delays. The PMU and DPD Offices will be fully functional by August 01, 2019. Baseline surveys in all eleven hotspot areas have commenced. Hydrological assessments in the three pilot hotspot areas and participatory rural appraisals in all eleven hotspot areas will commence soon. A budgetary allocations of LKR 200 million (FA) and LKR 25 million (CF) have been allocated under the Ministry of Agriculture for the project in the GOSL annual budget estimates of 2019. The PMU is of the view that the budgetary provision will not be enough to meet the requirement and additional provision has already been requested from the MOF. The Project 6/27/2019 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Climate Smart Irrigated Agriculture Project (P163742) has opened a USD denominated Designated Account (DA)and an initial advance of USD 2.3 million has been received.
