SELECTION CRITERIA FOR PRIORITIZATION
OF BENCHMARKS
• Alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals
• Measurable indicators (clear targets) that data is assessed at least on a
yearly basis
• Benchmark has implications for access to funding both loan and grant
• Reporting structure has already been established
• There are identifiable indictors that are not processes
• Should not be a perception survey based benchmark given that those
are more an evaluation tool of Government’s performance
• Available sources

SLIBs WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE PRESIDENT’S
RECOVERY PRIORITIES
• The indicators have been linked to the Agenda for Prosperity and the
President’s Recovery Priorities which are the shorter term deliverables
within the A4P.
• Some indicators that have been selected as part of this process are also
being tracked as part of the President’s Recovery Priorities as an example
of domestication of these international benchmarks to improve
governance, business climate, etc towards economic recovery

Sources
• After identification of the indicators, each indicator is linked to its
unique source(s)
• This process allows us to identify where indicators are the same
across Benchmarks because they are assessed in the same way
using the same sources
• This allows us to better prioritize scarce resources by focusing on
the sources and pooling resources across MDAs to identify
targeted action to improve performance
MDAs
• MDAs will be responsible for monitoring and submitting data to the
assessors.
•
• MDAs have been linked to each indicator and we are in the process of
identifying responsible persons within those MDAs that will submit data
on these indicators based on reporting requirements

• Note that these Benchmarks will be monitored separately given that they have established teams (more
than one) that have been designated to report on implementation of relevant indicators. SLIBs will simply
provide ancillary support to problem solve and encourage collaboration and coordination where necessary to
support implementation
FINDINGS
1. The # of indicators will reduce as some indicators are similar across
benchmarks with similar sources that assess Government data.
2. The list is a “working document” and can be expanded or reduced
based on the priorities of Government.
3. Government need’s to prioritize resources to improving these
indicators because fundamentally doing these things result in
stronger governance, a healthy business environment, a more
resilient economy
