A SEMINAR FOR MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT TO CONSIDER THE DRAFT NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 12

For the next two days we will unpack the outline of the plan. National Development Plan 12 is presented in three main parts: • Part I has seven (7) chapters that covers national policies and strategies; The first two focuses on General Principles and current economic landscape. Chapters 3 to 6 set out the nine priority sectors that will drive transformation, create jobs, and promote equity. Chapter 7 deals with implementation, monitoring, and evaluation — ensuring that what we promise is delivered. • Part II outlines the programmes and projects that make up the Public Investment Programme (PIP); and • Part III sets out how the Plan will be implemented, monitored, and evaluated. This structure is more than just a planning model; it is a commitment to performance accountability and delivery. ‘The Plan is a roadmap for Botswana’s future, crafted through collaborative efforts and forward-thinking development. It has been anchored around a shift from Botswana’s historic growth model based on Government towards a prioritized sector-based model that is private sector driven,’ Honourable Moeti Mohwasa.
