Change of management arrangements for ESP
- 07 Jul 2010DFID is in the process of changing the management arrangements of ESP (including RDIF) by the end of August 2010; a new service provider will be selected through a global competition. The new service provider will be required to provide technical/advisory assistance in governance, as well as programme and fund management, day-to-day management support, and to oversee implementation of ESP and RDIF in Nepal on behalf of DFID, and to disburse grant funds to third parties. This is an administrative change only and will have no impact on ESP/RDIF’s delivery.
