NACOMA Project – Preparation PhaseReview of Policy and Legislation Pertaining to Coastal Zone ManagementANNEX 5: TERMS OF REFERENCEConsultancy to review the policy and legislation pertainingto Coastal Zone Management in Namibia.1. BackgroundThe Namibian Government (GRN) is preparing the "Namib Coast BiodiversityConservation and Management Project" (NACOMA), with grant funds from the GlobalEnvironment Facility. The project intends to support Integrated Coastal ZoneManagement and biodiversity conservation implemented through an effective coastalzone planning framework. The project will be implemented in two phases, an initial 15month preparatory phase and a five year implementation phase. The project will beimplemented through the Regional Councils in Kunene, Hardap. Erongo, and Karas.The project has three components targeting: (i) Policy and Planning for SustainableManagement of the Namib Coast (including capacity building and institutionalstrengthening of the Regional Councils); (ii) Biodiversity Conservation and Monitoring& Evaluation; and (iii) Project Coordination Support.The Integrated Coastal Zone Management Committee (ICZMC) and its Secretariat willfacilitate and coordinate the preparation phase activities and project formulation. TheICZMC is representing the four Regional Councils of the coastal regions of Namibia aswell as the Ministry of Environment and Tourism, the Ministry of Regional LocalGovernment and Housing, the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources, and theMinistry of Mines and Energy. The ICZMC’s Secretariat is currently located in theErongo Regional Council. The main output of the preparatory phase is the projectdocument and project implementation manual, on which 4 year project implementationwill be based.During the preparation phase, there is a need to update and bring together the informationon policy and legislation referring to the Coastal Zone, to gain an overview of the Actsand Ordinances applicable for planning and management, with a future view to adaptingthese in a larger coordinated framework.The existing legal framework is fragmented, overlapping and scattered, as most of theActs and Ordinances pertaining to environment is the responsibility of a large number ofline ministries. Although great progress has been made, many are laws are outdated andnot revised since before the independence.There is no clearly defined policy framework for CZM, which results in a situation whereministries only define environmental standards once proposals for new developmentprojects are submitted within coastal areas, and thus inconsistent planning results. Certaininitiatives (such as NAMPAB, IMSCLUP, LUEB have in the past attempted to integratepolicies for improved planning, but there still seems to be lack of integration, as eachregion (and local authority) are undertaking planning in isolation from each other.47
