Lesson
The status of completion should be carefully examined before loan closure. In the event that there are outstanding activities, the contractual arrangements for completion should be carefully defined and committed before loan closure. It is a risk to assume that completion can take place under another loan with an unknown time frame and be dependent on a third-party consultant. Preparation of detailed design and bidding documents for the equipment packages should not have been included in the scope of the TA loan.
