Since the last supervision mission, a new Deputy Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources has been appointed as well as a new Project Director. Of major significance for the project was also the partial cancellation of Bank funds for ICB1-2 Lot 2 (Bustan Canal - construction of the new western half). This is to be now financed through Government Resources. The team understands that supervision of Lot 2 will remain under the purview of the Project and that implementation will be according to Bank procedures and compliance requirements. During the mission, the team had extensive discussions with counterparts (at various levels of government) on options to get the project back on track. It was agreed that three items are on the critical path: re-tender and issuance of contracts for Lot 1 and Lot 2 (Bustan Canal) and preparation of design and bid documents for the secondary canals. The Project and more broadly the Government and the World Bank, remain under scrutiny regarding the risk of forced labor in the three Districts of South Karakalpasktan. Early November, the World Bank received a complaint from International NGOs flagging some cotton-picking malpractices indicating a potential risk of forced labor in the Project Area. The MAWR and local stakeholders are receptive and willing to develop approaches to expand harvest mechanization in the project areas and subsequently mitigate the risk of forced labor. Among other actions, a workshop will be organized in the next month to prepare an action plan to enhance cotton mechanization adoption.
