PAD - LGED

19. This component will be managed primarily by the Central Road Safety Unit (CRSU) of
the LGED, with support from PMC and internationally-experienced TA, with specific progress
milestones and measurable results for monitoring and evaluation.
20. The Component will finance (i) technical assistance (TA) and/or consultancy services;
(ii) training programs, research program, workshops, surveys, campaigns and associated
consumables; (iii) goods, materials and/or logistics.
D. Component D: Contingent Emergency Response Component (US$0 million)
21. Should an adverse natural disaster event occur that causes a major calamity, the GoB may
request the Bank to re-allocate project funds to support response and reconstruction. This
component would draw resources from the unallocated expenditure category and/or allow the
GoB to request the Bank to re-categorize and reallocate financing from other project components
to partially cover emergency response and recovery costs. This component could also be used to
channel additional funds should they become available through as a result of the emergency.
22. Disbursements would be made against a positive list of critical goods or the procurement
of goods, works, and consultant services required to support the immediate response and
recovery needs of the GoB. All expenditures under this component, should it be triggered, will
be in accordance with BP/OP 8.0 in combination with the Bank’s Immediate Response
Mechanism (IRM) guidelines dated November 3, 2011, and will be appraised, reviewed and
found to be acceptable to the Bank before any disbursement is made. In addition to reallocation
of funds from other project components, the contingent component may also serve as a conduit
for additional funds to be channeled to the project in the event of an emergency.
