EVOLUTION OF THE APPROACHES

3.1 Components of the Approach

3.2 Evolution of the Approaches3.2.1 SDS 1996-20003.2.2 SDS 2000-20053.2.3 NSDS 2008-20103.2.4 NSDS 2009-20133.2.5 NSDS 2012-2015


Evolution of the Approaches:3.1 Components of the Approach

3.1.1 Planning launchThis startup step of the process included:The operation’s terms of reference; Implementation of the institutional framework

(decision-making, supervisory and execution bodies);

General orientation (detailed calendar, operational prerequisites, various constraints of the NSI Directorate);

EVOLUTION OF THE APPROACHESEVOLUTION OF THE APPROACHES:3.1 Components of the Approach3.1.2 DiagnosticsThis consisted of: Preparing a review of the existing situation (through a survey of producers, consumers and communicators); Uncovering the strengths and weaknesses of the activities concerned; Fixing strategic objectives; Proposing scenarios on the target statistical production system (from the clear vision);

EVOLUTION OF THE APPROACHESEVOLUTION OF THE APPROACHES:

3.1 Components of the Approach3.1.3. Development scenarios Three scenarios are proposed as classic hypotheses, i.e.: High hypothesis synonymous with rapid development (requiring much imagination); Medium hypothesis, called underlying (letting things happen without influencing their incidence); Low hypothesis, called catastrophic or pessimist (affirming a development of constraints and therefore a rapid degradation of the initial situation).


3.1 Components of the Approach3.1.4 Strategic and Operational PlansThey result from the scenario chosen, which sets:Strategic objectives (strategic positions); Strategies (still general); Operational objectives (measurable); Actions (still grouped together, but identifiable); Activities (which can go to the level of the major tasks).


3.1 Components of the Approach3.1.5. Adoption of the PlanAdoption of the plan seeks to make it official: ; incumbent on the decision-making body.The actors through the institutional framework put in place (who will prepare, decide and benefit from, and the TFPs); Planning approaches (participative, directive, bottom-up or top-down, etc.); Method for estimating Plan costs (accounting budgeting, budgeting by activity, etc.).


3.2. Evolution of the Approaches 3.2.1 SDS 1996-20003.2.2 SDS 2000-20053.2.3 NSDS 2008-20103.2.4 NSDS 2009-20133.2.5 NSDS 2012-20153.2.5. SNDS 2012-2015


1996-2000: Statistics Master Plan (SDS); 2001-2005: Statistics Master Plan (SDS); 2008-2010: National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS); 2009-2013: National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS); 2012-2015: National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS).

ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION


Assessment of the Implementation

1996-2000: Statistics Master Plan (SDS):

Out of 17 large structural projects (intended to redo the NSS), only 5 were completely performed. Concerning the 13 large statistical operational projects (defined by statistical production sector), 7 were completely performed.


Assessment of the Implementation2001-2005: Statistics Master Plan (SDS): Only the restructuring of the NSI intervened with the implementation of a private type accounting and organisational structure set in 2001.



2008-2010: National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS): Only the draft law on statistics was passed by the Government and transmitted to Parliament. 2009-2013: National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS):Nor was this one adopted by the Council of Ministers.


2012-2015: National Strategy for Development of Statistics (NSDS):The 2012-2015 NSDS is being implemented. Large files and operations and statistical work were performed or are being processed or performed: The 2012 annual employment survey;


Assessment of the ImplementationThe 2012-2015 NSDS – Production of several statistical directories (education, health, agriculture, etc.). The national Statistical Law was voted;The African Statistical Charter was ratified; The Emergency Plan for Production of Basic Statistics (PU-PSB) is being completed;


The 2012-2015 NSDS – Production of several statistical directories (Education, health, agriculture, etc.). The national Statistical Law was voted;The African Statistical Charter was ratified; The Emergency Plan for Production of Basic Statistics (PU-PSB) is being completed;



2012-2015: NSDSTechnical, organizational and financial improvement of the NSI underway since August 2011; The 4th Ivory Coast RGPH is in its final phase (counting finished by 14 June 2014),



2012-2015: NSDSThe 2013 Annual Employment and Child Labour Survey is being performed. Preparation of the 2014 ENVEtc.

CONSTRAINTS In view of the above, we can be pleased with:the significant improvement of the approach, the extension of actors and their implication, the involvement of the TFPs next to the State and others,

budgeting by activity with RBM and finally the insertion of the NSDS in the National Development Plan Monitoring – evaluation of implementation. There remains the question of timely and sufficient mobilisation of necessary human, material and financial resources that comply with the budget.

PERSPECTIVES

The NSDS are necessary and even indispensable to guarantee the production of current and reliable statistics in a health legal-social environment . The African Statistical Charter is the result of that.

PERSPECTIVES However, useful improvements can be envisaged in the approach, the buildup, estimates of operational costs (Budget) as well as mobilisation of resources. They can cover: The approach and financing The Approach

Pursuing the participative approach which takes into account decentralisation and completely integrates the development planning process.

BuildupThe popularisation of RBM and integration of accounting budgeting to facilitate expected budget allocations.

PERSPECTIVES Financing

Implementation of sustainable statistical production development funds through the statistical tax envisaged in customs taxes by the Coloniser;Mutualisation of costs.

ConclusionIn conclusion, one can remember that:The Ivory Coast has made progress on the road from the SDS to the NSDS, a difficult but promising road;The road has finally resulted in being part of the NDP;Nevertheless, there remains the question of mobilisation of human, material and financial resources;These must now be treated in the context of the financing of the NDP;Production of statistics based on administrative sources is the main orientation from the methodological point of view.
