Mid-Term PMSP Assessment
The Sectoral Commission, through its Technical Secretariat under the General Office of Social
Management of the Ministry of Energy and Mines, published in January the document “Mid-Term
Assessment of the Mining Programme of Solidarity with the People) (PMSP) pertaining to the 2007 –
2009 period”, with the aim of requesting the mining companies part of the PMSP to make their mid- term
PMSP results assessments as provided in the document “Lines of Action of the Mining Programme of
Solidarity with the People 2007-2011”.
The Technical Secretariat requested the companies participating in the PMSP, by Standard Request
No.003-2011-MEM/OGGS, to conduct their respective Mid-Term Assessments, so as to have information
on the positive impacts that are being achieved since projects executed with PMSP funds are
implemented.
These Mid-Term Assessments have a strong qualitative component intended to measure the quality of the
investments made in the projects implemented within PMSP framework, promoting thus an assessment
culture for implemented social intervention strategies in order to contribute to the economic and social
development in line with the Government policies combating poverty, PMSP ultimate target.
Lastly, mention must be made that the Mining Programme of Solidarity People comes to an end with the
2011 contribution made in April 2011, and that outstanding balances must be integrally spent in
compliance with the programme regulations. Such outstanding balances must be used for the PMSP
social closure strategy, given the fact that most investment projects have been directly identified and
developed with PMSP beneficiaries.
