The Project was restructured in January 2014. The objective of the restructuring was to improve implementation performance, which had suffered from the start of the Project due to the uncertainty regarding the proposed devolution of the HEC following the 18th Amendment and changes in the HEC senior management. The restructuring included the cancellation of US$77.82 million and the revision of selected DLI targets to allow the HEC to accelerate implementation and focus on the remaining, unmet DLIs. Project implementation progress has improved significantly, jump-started by Project restructuring. The HEC has made progress in the achievement of several DLIs and has Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Report No: ISR14772 considerably improved its implementation capacity making this a moderately satisfactory project in terms of implementation progress and reaching its Project Development Objectives.
