conditionality for submission to and agreement with USAID.  Contract personnel will advise the
IMCC on the suggested means for implementing and verifying the compliance with each year's
conditionality prior to the release of each tranche of NPA.  To assist with the process of
verification, this monitoring plan includes provisions to monitor compliance with the NPA
conditions.  The first  year's NPA conditions are:
1.
The GOG will develop a plan of action to establish a national multiparty consultative process
that includes broad representation from the public sector, the private sector, and civil society
in general.  This process will provide for open and transparent consultations on at least an
annual basis, and the plan will contain the specific economic issues to be addressed by the
process.
2.
The GOG will implement the plan of action for the consultative process, which will result in a
macro and trade policy agenda with specific recommendations, timetables, targets and
expected results to help increase Ghana's international competitiveness.
3.
The GOG will conduct analyses and develop an action plan eliminating exchange controls for
non traditional exporters.
4.
The GOG will undertake studies on the effects of bans and controls on commodities such as
rubber, yams and cotton, and develop an action plan to eliminate their negative impact on
production and exports of these products.
The work plan for the first year's activities under the Sigma One USAID contract includes
activities encompassing the NPA conditionality and, thus, the monitoring for contract processes
includes procedures for verifying NPA conditionality compliance.  Specifically, accomplishment of 
Milestone 2.13 (deliver annual draft documents to assist the GOG to develop evidence of NPA
conditionality) will generally serve as evidence that contract personnel are working with the GOG
to assure NPA conditionality.  Complinace with conditionalities 1 and 2 for the first year will be
assisted through accomplishment of Milestones 1.5, 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10 (see Section III). 
Conditionality number 3 will be assisted through Milestone 2.12 and number 4 through Milestone
2.19.  Thus, much of the dialogue process during year one of the program will contribute to
processes that will help assure NPA conditionality compliance.  The monitoring plan for
subsequent years will be modified to take account of the new NPA conditionalities as they are
developed and approved..
VI. Participation of Customers/Clients
The monitoring of policy changes and their impacts will incorporate a high degree of involvement
by customers (GOG and Ghanaian Civil Society).  This process will include involvement in
collecting, analyzing, reviewing and evaluating performance indicators based on customers' needs. 
Perceptions and beliefs of public officials and employees as well as those of private sector entities,
firms, customers and others will be solicited and incorporated into the monitoring and evaluation
reports.
