There are four components to the project. The first component of the project is trade policy formulation and implementation. This component will support the Government's trade strategy, in particular: (i) technical barriers to trade and sanitary and photo-sanitary measures; (ii) trade facilitation; and (iii) other legal reforms and World Trade Organization obligations. The second component of the project is performance monitoring. This component will support to surveys and monitoring tools to assess progress in implementing the Government's trade strategy and provide evidenced-based feedback. The third component of the project is institutional and human capacity. This component will support to the development of strengthened institutions, stronger incentives, and improved technical ability to formulate and implement the Government's trade policy. The fourth component of the project is implementation support to TDSP. This component will support the development of the Ministry of Commerce's implementation capacity to act as a Secretariat for the trade sector wide approach (SWAp) and program manager for the TDSP. This will include support to assist it in meeting its fiduciary responsibilities. This will also support other departments' and agencies' capacity in implementing the TDSP.
