Revised CDLD POLICY Implementation Procedures 3


CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO CDLD POLICY AND
PROCEDURES

1.1. Policy Background


The Community Driven Local Development (CDLD) Policy framework, approved by the
Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (GOKP) in 2013, supports the broader reform
agenda of the GOKP for achieving people-centered development, inclusive growth, and
poverty reduction to rebuild the trust between the State and citizens, and indirectly curb
militancy in the region. The overall goal of CDLD Policy is to achieve a sustainable
improvement in the coverage and quality of front-line public service delivery through the
active involvement of local communities. The Policy has been developed to achieve the
following three objectives:

ŸŸ Put in place fiscal and regulatory framework for CDLD where local communities are
in charge of executing local development/service delivery initiatives;

ŸŸ Build the capacity of relevant public sector entities and functionaries at the district
level to operationalize CDLD; and

ŸŸ Provide an enabling environment for CBO to access public funds earmarked for
CDLD initiatives.

This Policy is currently being implemented in thirteen districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa


(Battagram, Buner, Chitral Lower, Chitral Upper, Dir Lower, Dir Upper, Haripur,
Malakand, Nowshera, Shangla, Swabi, Swat, and Torghar) under joint funding of GOKP
and European Union (EU) through budget support with the active engagement of the
Community Based Organizations (CBOs).

1.2. Rationale
The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Community Driven Local Development Policy (CDLD Policy)
document provides an overall framework for any community driven development in
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In compliance with the CDLD Policy, Finance Department issued
instructions in the shape of notification No. FD/EU/CDLD/1-1/2013 dated 15 August
2014, which explains the detailed implementation procedures for any intervention under
the Policy. The CDLD Policy implementation procedures are reviewed on annual basis
for continuous improvement in the quality for CDLD Programme. This is also reflected
in the performance matrix agreed with the European Union. Based on the learnings
of implementation stakeholders, the CDLD Policy implementation procedures were
revised in 2017 and issued by Local Government Election and Rural Development
Department (LGE&RDD) on 23 June 2017 vide NOTIFICATION/LGE&RDD/CDLD
Unit/2017. Likewise, for second review, EU mission’s recommendations, Third Party
Verification (TPV) firm findings, and submission of the annual review workshop held in
June 2019 were presented to PCRC in its 17th meeting which were approved. Based on
the approval, the CDLD policy implementation procedures were revised. Subsequently,

4 Revised CDLD POLICY Implementation Procedures


Secretary LGE&RDD approved the revised CDLD Policy implementation procedures
under section 1.7 of the CDLD Policy.

1.3. Policy Dispensation


Any Programme under the CDLD Policy, including EU and Government of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa (GoKP) funded District Governance and Community Development
(DGCD) Programme (to be referred to henceforth in this notification as the CDLD
Programme), shall be implemented in accordance with these Policy implementation
procedures and other relevant notifications/advisories issued by the GOKP from time to
time. These instructions shall be applicable to each of the districts included in the scope
of the CDLD Policy.

1.4. CDLD Programme Stakeholders


CDLD Programme is being implemented by the Local Government Department of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa with budgetary support of European Union. EU is also providing technical
assistance for capacity building and technical backstopping and third party verification
support for independent review. GoKP is implementing the Programme through its
respective divisional and district administration. For strengthening the capacity of
district administration additional human resource in the shape of social mobilization
and engineering teams are provided. GoKP is also contributing a huge amount of funds
from its own exchequer. All these efforts from Programme stakeholders are intended
to enable the communities participate in the development process in effective manner.
Further details about functions of the key implementers are provided in chapter 2. A
