8. Yi Soktha Conclusions on the importance of the platform division Platforms will create a base foundation: (1) Reflect the practical nature of implementation of the reform program; (2) Take into account the amount of time it will take to adjust, coordinate, and adopt individual and institutional changes; and (3)Provide sufficient time for a fair assessment of efforts and necessary adjustment.

9. Yi Soktha How to know the progress of the results achieved in each platform? M&E framework will be established in which it links to Program Areas and D&D Objectives. Donor alignment with NP- M&E framework.

10. Yi Soktha The M&E Strategy in Platform 1 (2011-2013) 1- Program evaluation: Evaluation includes assessing and evaluating: a)Programme outcomes; b)Programme impacts; and c)Policy options. 2- Program implementation monitoring includes: a)Monitoring capacity development outputs, activities and inputs, as programmed under the annual work plan and budgets. b)Tracking SNA capacity and performance (i.e. SNA activities and outputs; and

Yi Soktha The M&E strategy in Platform 1 (continued) c) Supporting the development of central Government arrangements and information gathering for oversight of SNA performance, tracking of public expenditure, HR management and public asset management. Note: The M&E used for the NP-SNDD will not only include measurement of both outputs and outcomes (results), but also use this information to help manage and improve programs and services. Thus it will serve two key purposes: (1) Providing Accountability; and (2) Improving programs and services so as to make them more effective.
