Result Based Management Framework - METAC

56
Work Program
Objectives
Before the events of 2011, TA in external statistics was considered necessary in the
following areas: conducting a DI survey, improving collection and compilation methods
for remittances including identifying countries of origin and transmission channels, and
developing an IIP.
In the area of price statistics, follow-up TA would help consolidate achievements
regarding the CPI and the PPI.
It is unclear at this stage what the consequences of the political changes will be for
statistics. A new assessment will be necessary when the situation returns to normal.
Outcomes
The main outcomes of TA on external statistics are:
The quality of BOP has improved gradually, in particular regarding remittances.
A DI survey has been conducted.
Libya compiles and publishes an IIP for the country.
BPM6 methodology has been implemented.
The main outcomes of TA on price statistics are:
The CPI weights have been updated based on the results of a new household
budget survey (HBS) that needs to be conducted.
In the medium-term, the GAFI should expand coverage of the PPI to include
agriculture (currently the PPI is limited to manufacturing, mining, and utilities).
In the long term, the GAFI should continue expanding coverage to include
construction, services, and other activities to align with the production accounts
compiled by the NA staff.
Outputs
The main outputs of TA on external statistics are:
Mission reports.
Hands-on training on the compilation of the IIP.
