Affected Households is basically identical to AHs, but except those whose will lose rice bins and bamboo fence.

Compensation is payment in cash or in-kind at replacement cost for an asset to be acquired by the Project.

Corridor of Impact is the area required for permanent works plus a minimum additional width for operation of construction equipment to build the required permanent works.

Cut-Off Date means the date prior to which the occupation or use of the project area makes residents/users of the project area eligible to be categorized as AHs. The cut-off date for this Project will be the date of completion of the census and inventory of losses survey but subject to verification during detailed measurement survey. Persons not covered in the census of AHs are not eligible for compensation and other entitlements are not eligible for compensation and other entitlements

Entitlement means a range of measures comprising compensation in cash or in kind, relocation cost, income rehabilitation assistance, transfer assistance, income substitution, and business restoration which are due to AHs, depending on the type and degree of their losses, to restore their social and economic base.

Household means all persons living and eating together as a single social unit. The census used this definition and the data generated by the census forms the basis for identifying the household unit.

Income Restoration means re-establishing income sources and livelihoods of AHs to their pre-project levels.

Land Acquisition is the process whereby a person is compelled by the Government through the Executing Agency of the Project to alienate all or part of the land s/he owns or possesses in favor of the State in the implementation of the Project or any of its components in return for fair compensation.

Rehabilitation means assistance provided to severely affected AHs due to the loss of 10% or more productive assets (i.e., farmland, fishpond, vegetable garden, etc.), incomes, employment or sources of living such as shops and place of employment have to be reconstructed and/or relocated. The livelihood support may be given in cash or in kind or a

pg. viii

combination of the two in order to improve, or at least achieve full restoration of living standards to pre-project levels.

Relocation is the physical shifting of an AP from his/her pre-project place of residence and/or business.

Replacement Cost is the amount in cash or in-kind needed to replace an asset and is the value determined as compensation for:

i） Agricultural land and fishpond based on market prices that reflect recent land sales prior to the commencement of the Project or displacement, and in the absence of such recent sales, based on productive value;

ii） Residential land based on market prices that reflect recent land sales prior to the commencement of the Project or displacement, and in the absence of such recent land sales, based on similar location attributes;

iii） Houses and other related structures based on current market prices of materials and labor without depreciation nor deductions for salvaged building materials;

iv） Annual crops equivalent to the highest production of crop over last three years multiplied by the current market value of crops;

v） Perennials crops and trees and other based on current market value based on type, age, diameter at breast height and productive capacity; and

vi） Other assets (i.e., cultural, aesthetic) based on current market value for repairing and/or replacing assets or the cost of mitigating measures.

Resettlement refers to all measures taken by the Project proponents to mitigate any and all adverse social impacts of the Project on the AHs, including compensation for lost assets and incomes, and the provision of other entitlements, income restoration assistance, and relocation as needed.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Project The Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), with the assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) will implement the Second Northern GMS Transport Network Improvement Project (the Project). The road improvement is part of a regional development program for Second Northern GMS Transport Network Improvement Project, with the Project as a whole designed to connect Northern provinces of Lao PDR, to connect to the Vietnam. The Project is intended to enhance transport connection among the GMS members so as to promote economic growth and poverty reduction through increasing inter-country trade and cooperation. The civil works includes the upgrading of approximately 86km of two road sections of National Highway N6A and 6B located in Huaphanh Province in northeastern Lao PDR. This Updated RP covers the NR6A portion of the project located in ViengXai and Sop Bao District. NR6A is covered under a separate updated RP. The NR6A section of the Project is approximately 60 km in length through mostly mountainous terrain and traverses 25 villages. The corridor of impacts (COI) is 15 m in residential and flat areas and 50m in mountainous areas.

This Updated Resettlement Plan (URP) covers the upgrading of the above-mentioned sections of NR6A and presents the strategy to address the impacts of land acquisition and resettlement resulting from this project. This URP has been prepared by the Department of Roads (DOR) of MPWT with assistance from consultants under ADB Grant 0234-LAO (Lao Second Northern GMS Transport Network Improvement Project). The URP forms part of the Grant Agreement condition and is based on the laws and regulations of Lao PDR and the resettlement policy of ADB. The purpose of this document is to set out both a policy framework and an action plan for the resettlement activities of the Project to ensure Affected Households (AHs) standards of living are improved or at least restored to pre-project levels. MPWT, through its Department of Roads (DOR) will be responsible to ensure the RP is adequately financed and will coordinate the resettlement committees in Huaphanh Province and in ViengXai and Sop Bao Districts to implement in accordance with the approved RP.

There are 25 villages affected by the Project located in ViengXai and Sop Bao Districts of Huaphanh Province in northeastern Laos comprising Na Pung, Pong, Pa KhokNgai and Pa Hang. Based on the detailed design for two lanes of the NR6A road project the COI will be 15m in populated village areas as well as flat sections and 50m in mountainous sections. Other temporary impacts that may occur during civil works for construction requirements such as construction camps and work areas outside the COI will also be compensated in accordance with the provisions set out in the RP.

Land Acquisition and Resettlement Impacts A detailed measurement survey was conducted October to November 2012 based on the project design to enumerate impacted persons and losses, such as affected land and non-land assets. The DMS was subdequently reconducted April to August 2013 to incorporate minimization measures due to reduction in COI. A total of 161 households will be affected by various forms of losses. In addition Electricity of Laos (EDL) is included in the RP an entitled entity being the owner of the affected electricity poles. A total of 132,674m2 land will be permanently acquired consisting of 39plots of residential land (3,277m2), 73 plots of paddy field (127,336 m2) affecting 40 households, 4 plots of garden land (1,599 m2) affecting 3 households and 7 fish ponds (463 m2). Of the affected households, 98 will be physically displaced, 13 will need to relocate their shops, 40 will lose productive land and 6 will lose fishponds. Other non-land assets include loss of trees, crops and secondary structures.

There are 30 vulnerable households requiring special assistance consisting of 26 households living below the poverty line and 4 severely affected female headed households.

Socio-Economic Conditions Huaphanh Province is located in the northeast part of the country bordering with Vietnam. It has the jurisdiction of 8 districts and 739 villages with 16,500 square kilometers of land area. The total population was 0.286 million in 2008, with an average population density of just 17.3 persons per square kilometer. There were 44,658 households in the province, with an average household size of 6.4 persons. Among them, only 11.8% are residing in urban towns while the majority of 88.2% are living in rural areas. Among the total rural population, only 58% have access to roads by 2008. The average GDP in 2008 was approximately US$ 392 per capita. In the same year, the province had about 43,616 ha of farmland under cultivation, averaging 0.16 ha per capita.

ViengXai District, where whole NR6 and part of NR6A are located, is located in the east of Huaphanh Province. It is bordering with XamNeua District to the south, Sop Bao District to the north, and Vietnam to the east. The district has a total area of 1,587 square kilometers. The district had 107 villages, 5,839 HHs and 34,339 persons by 2008. Female population accounted for 49.1%. ViengXai is an officially recognized poverty district in Lao PDR, 44.6% of the HH were poor, with per capita monthly income below 82,000 kips (or US$ 120 annually) in 2008. The average per capita agricultural land was 0.09 ha per capita and the grain production was 370 kg per capita in 2008. Its major agricultural products include rice, corn, soybeans, vegetables and fruits.

Sop Bao District, where part of NR6A and whole NR6B are located, is in the northern part of Huaphanh Province. It borders ViengXai District to the south, XiengKhor District to the east, and Vietnam to the north and east. The district has a total area of 1,058 square kilometers. In 2008, the district had 68 villages, 4,307 HHs and 26,414 persons. The female population accounted for 50.0% of the total population. The average population density was 17 persons/m2. Sop Bao is one of the two non-poor districts, out of a total of eight, in Huaphan Province, with only 26.5% of the HHs classified as poor in 2008. The average GDP per capita was $292. In the same year the district had 2,800 ha of farmland, averaging 0.11 ha per capita. This district has a larger portion of flat land and better irrigation conditions than most of the province. The average grain production was 413 kg per capita in 2008, the highest in the province. Its major agricultural products include rice, maize, soybeans, vegetables and fruit.

The 25 villages traversed by the project road have a total population of 8,357 with a population density of 139 persons per square kilometer. The population is comprised of three ethnic groups: Hmong, Lao Loum, and K’mou. . Agriculture is dominant employment sector, and 1,558 HHs (100%) are reliant on farming as their main income source. There are two main types of land used for farming in the project areas: (i) commune managed agricultural land (typically paddy) for which the land use rights are exclusively on a temporary basis and reallocated amongst households on a 3-5 year cycle; (ii) public land used for slash and burn cultivation, which is typically hilly land used informally by individual households for mainly maize or vegetable cultivation. Another type is garden land is individually held and typically adjoins residential land and along the riverbanks. Garden land typically comprises small plots used to household consumption.

The socio-economic survey All HHs in the project area have access to electricity as well as communal water supplies (gravity fed public taps). All villages have primary schools. However, only Na Pung has a high school. Children from the other villages are required to travel 5 to 9 km to go to high school. Access to a health center requires travelling distances ranging from 4 to 9 km The total numbers of poor HHs are 116 HHs in Sop Bao District and


Resettlement Report

3

90 HHs in ViengXay District. The poorest village is Phone Thong (25 poor HHs) of ViengXai District and in Sop Bao District it is Na Yom (19 poor HHs). The months per year food shortage in ViengXay District are about 2-6 months, in Sop Bao District are about 1 to 6 months, especially with respect to rice. All residential houses are predominating simple and wooden structured.

Legal and Policy Framework The legal framework and entitlements are developed from the laws of the Government of Lao PDR, principally the Constitution (1991), the Land Law (2003), the Road Law (1999), the Draft National Resettlement Policy Decree No. 192/PM(7July, 2005) and Decree No. 699/PMO-WREA (12 March 2010) on Compensation and Resettlement of Development Project as well as ADB’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement (2009) as articulated under its Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS). ADB’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement and Government approved resettlement plans for other ADB and World Bank projects. Provisions and principles adopted in this RP will supplement the provisions of relevant decrees currently in force in Lao PDR wherever a gap exists. The compensation and entitlement policy is designed to cover compensation for lost assets and assistance to restore or enhance livelihoods of all APs. Affected people will receive compensations at replacement costs for land and non-land assets in cash or in-kind. Moreover, various assistances will be available to severely affected and vulnerable APs, if any. Various compensation measures and entitlements have been determined for all categories of land acquisition and resettlement impacts resulting from the Project. Entitled persons or AHs are those who satisfy the cut-off-date on 31 December 2012. An Entitlement Matrix is prepared and included in the RP.

Relocation and Rehabilitation Strategy The Project will fully affect 137 main structures, consisting of 121 houses (belonging to 98 households) and 15 shops (belonging 10 13 households). The Districts will provide replacement residential land for the physically displaced households. Semi-permanent and wooden houses can typically be wholly relocated to new sites without damaging the structures, if the distance of the new site is not too far. If the houses cannot be relocated without causing significant damage, the structures will be compensated at replacement cost. The replacement land will be provided in the same village and the house construction site will be fully prepared (e.g. leveling, filling, etc.) by the project. Relocation and transitional assistance will be provided, including transportation assistance, transition allowance, and business loss allowance. There are 40 households that will experience partial loss of village owned communal farming land and an additional 24 households experiencing permanent loss loss of productive land held under individual land user right certificates. . Of these 17 will experience significant losses of 10% or more. For those losing use of village communal farm land, replacement land will be provided and affected households provided with cash assistance equivalent to 1.5 times the annual value of crops otherwise grown on the land for the duration of the period until replacement land is provided. Those losing productive land with land user right certificates will be provided compensation at replacement cost, income stablization support for 3-6 months as well as income restoration assistance. Vulnerable households will be provided with additional stabilization assistance.

Gender Strategy Preparation of the RP included a gender analysis. Specific gender sensitive measure are included in the RP to ensure women fully participate and are not marginalized, including ensuring meaningful consultation; participation in surveys; joint-receipt of compensation; joint-registration of any new land user rights certificates; and active involvement of the Women’s Union in RP planning and implementation.

Ethnic Groups in the Project Areas In Lao PDR there are 49 different ethnic groups. The official terminology for the classification of “ethnic groups” is in accordance with the Lao Constitution (1991). There is no main ethnic group, which forms a main or dominant society or culture significantly distinct from the various constituent ethnic groups in the country. In the project area the population is comprised of three ethnic groups: Lao Lum, Hmong, and Khmou. While all three groups self-identify as distinctive ethnic groups, the Lao national language is commonly spoken amongst all groups.

Local communities have been consulted on project related matters through preparation of resettlement, environment and social development plans preparations. Consultations will continue throughout project implementation. A consultation and participation plan has been prepared for the project. All groups are fully fluent in Lao. As such the mode of delivery of information was in a form suitable to them. Traditional community elders have also been actively engaged in all the consultation meetings at the local level. The grievance redress mechanism is also culturally appropriate for the local communities.

Consultation, Participation and Disclosure Meaningful consultation and information dissemination has been an integral component of the preparation of the RP and commenced during the preparation of the RP as well as updating of this RP. It has been, and will continue to be held with stakeholders and affected households. Consultations have included affected households, local communities and project stakeholders, such as government authorities and agencies from the provincial, district and village levels. Issues raised have been noted and measures to address these are indicated in the RP. Essential elements of the RP, including impacts, entitlement policy, assistance measures, implementation arrangements and grievance redress mechanism have been disclosed to affected households at various times in consultation meetings and through the dissemination of a public information brochure. The approved RP will be disclosed to affected households as well as publically disclosed. A consultation, participation and disclosure plan is included in the RP to guide ongoing consultation and disclosure throughout RP implementation.

Grievance Redress A four-stage grievance redress mechanism (GRM) has been prepared for the project to address any project related concern, including resettlement related matters. The GRM is accessible (commencing at the village level) and is culturally appropriate. Complainants also have the option to seek redress through the court system at any stage. Arrangements are set out to monitor grievances and grievance redress. The grievance redress mechanism has been disclosed to local communities and affected households.

Institutional and Implementation Arrangements The MPWT is the executing agency of the project. Responsibility for resettlement spans various government agencies of various levels and they include the DOR (with PMU on behalf of it) of MPWT, Provincial Governor’s Office and relevant departments, district governor’s office and relevant sectors and authorities of affected villages. The involved agencies at provincial and district levels formed their respective resettlement committees while taskforces are established at PMU and in affected villages. In addition, management, design and contract supervision consultants are also involved in the planning and implementation of the resettlement, as needed. Capacity building measures have been conducted in the past, including during the preparation of the RP and will continue as part of the project activities.

PMU will only issue notices to commence civil works, for any particular length of the project road following approval of the updated RP and when: i) satisfactory arrangements of land redistribution and relocation sites are places; ii) satisfactory compensation payments to

non-land losses with necessary assistances are provided; and iii) the area required for civil works is free of all obstructions. The estimated schedule for land acquisition and resettlement is from February 2014 to August 2014. Monitoring and operation of the grievance redress mechanism will continue throughout the project implementation period.

Monitoring and Evaluation Monitoring and evaluation will be conducted through both internal and external arrangements to ensure that the RP is satisfactorily implemented and its objectives achieved. The PMU with support of the PSC will have main responsibility for internal monitoring and report regularly as part of the project implementation reporting requirements. External monitoring will be conducted by an external monitor engaged by the DOR. The external monitor will produce semi-annual report (or more frequent as required by DOR). Both internal and external monitoring reports will be publically disclosed. Specific monitoring indicators are included in the RP to provide the means to measure and verify the provision of compensation and assistance measures to mitigate the project’s involuntary resettlement impacts.

Budget and Financing Arrangements The total cost will be approximately Kip 9,470,621,639 (approx. $1,183,828) . The cost for the external monitor ($50,000) is financed by ADB as a separate consulting package. The PMU will be responsible for the financing of the resettlement, administration, internal monitoring.

The Resettlement Plan for the Project was prepared in November 2010 under ADB financed regional technical assistance project TA-6478 (Preparing the Second Northern Greater Mekong Subregion Transport Network Improvement Project). The 2010 resettlement plan provides the basis (including entitlements) for the final updated resettlement plans, including entitlements. This Updated Resettlement Plan (URP) updates the resettlement plan for the upgrading of road sections of NR6A from Sam Phanxay village to Sop Bao Town (hereafter referred to as the Project in this URP). A separate URP is prepared for NR6B.

5. This URP presents the strategy of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT) of Lao PDR in addressing the adverse impacts of the improvement of NR6A on AHs’ land and non-land assets as well as livelihoods and incomes. This URP has been prepared by the Department of Roads (DOR) of MPWT with assistance from consultants under ADB Grant 0234-LAO (Lao Second Northern GMS Transport Network Improvement Project). The URP outlines: i) the scope of involuntary resettlement impacts on land, non-land assets and livelihoods; ii) measures to be taken to minimize these adverse impacts; iii) specific mitigations measures to compensate, assist and resettle the AHs; iv) the legal and institutional framework for implementing the URP; v) mechanisms to facilitate stakeholder consultation and participation, including grievance procedures; and vi) administrative issues related to URP implementation, budgeting, supervision, monitoring and evaluation.

6. This URP forms part of the Grant Agreement condition and is based on the laws and regulations of Lao PDR and the resettlement policy of ADB. The purpose of this document is to set out both a policy framework and an action plan for the resettlement activities of the Project to ensure Affected Households (AHs) standards of living are improved or at least restored to pre-project levels. MPWT, through its Department of Roads (DOR) will be responsible to ensure the RP is adequately financed and will coordinate the resettlement committees in Huaphanh Province and in Sop Bao Districts to implement in accordance with the approved RP.

C. Project Villages 7. There are 25 villages affected by the Project located in ViengXai and Sop Bao Districts of Huaphanh Province in northeastern Laos. The names and locations of the affected villages are shown in Table 1 and Figure 2 below.

D. Corridor of Impact Definition 8. The corridor of Impact (COI) is the area where land is required for the civil works to upgrade the project road and is the area in which permanent impacts will be experienced. Based on the detailed design for two lanes of the NR6A road project the COI will be 15m in populated village areas as well as flat sections and 50m in mountainous sections (outside the village residential areas). The COI is summarized in Table 2 and the detailed cross section can be seen in Figure 3.

9. Other temporary impacts may occur during civil works for construction requirements such as construction camps and work areas outside the COI. These temporary impacts will also be compensated in accordance with the provisions set out in the RP.

II. RESETTLEMENT IMPACTS 10. This chapter presents the involuntary resettlement impacts associated with the upgrading of NR6A.

A. Measures to Minimize Resettlement Impacts 11. Efforts have been made to reduce the width of the COI as much as possible to minimize impacts as much as feasible. The typical corridor of impact (COI), including road carriageway width, shoulders, side drainage and safety area, for this Project is 13.7m -15 m for settlement areas, flat and rolling sections; and 50m for mountain sections (where realignment of some curves is required). The curves to be improved are located on mountains where there are no residents and productive land. Civil works will be confined within these COIs. This represents a reduction over previously considered designs for which a typical COI 18m for settled and 22m for flat areas. The current COI excludes acquisition of land for diversion roads during construction, which will be temporarily rather than permanently acquired in the current design. This COI width is consistent with the 15m COI for the World Bank financed road improvements on a contiguos section of NH 6A. Furthermore, construction will as much as possible take place during the dry season which would also minimize impacts on farming activities.

B. Affected Population 12. A total of 161 households will be affected by various forms of losses (approximately 966 persons). In addition Electricity of Laos (EDL) is included in the RP an entitled entity being the owner of the affected electricity poles.

13. Of the affected households, 98 will be physically displaced, 13 will need to relocate their shop, 40 will lose paddy land, 3 will lose garden land and 6 will lose a fishpond. A summary of the affected households by village and by key impact is presented in the table below.

C. Detail Measurement Survey (DMS) 14. A detailed measurement survey (DMS) was conducted October to November 2012 based on the initial project detailed design and then reconducted May to August 2013 based on the final revised detailed design which incorporated minimizing features of reduced COI. The DMS was conducted by a resettlement plan preparation team under guidance from the Project Supervision Consultant and with support of the Department of Public Works and Transport (DPWT) of Huaphanh Province and district authorities. All affected assets have been classified by land type, main structure, secondary structure, fishpond, trees and public facilities (such as irrigation canal, electricity poles). A summary of the affected assets is set out in the table below.

6. Loss of Productive Land

22. A total of 12.7ha (consisting of 73 plots) of productive land will be permanently acquired. Most of the affected land is communal and is a village asset. The total loss of productive land in the vast majority of villages is less than 1% of total productive land. The greater proportions of losses are experienced in Na Ngoua (9.5%), HaoSaen and Vieng Hang (3.5% each) and Hard San (1.4%). Only 1.01ha is under individual land user right certificate and is individually held by 24 households. Of these, 17 AHs will lose more than 10% of their affected land. The distribution of individually held private land by number of AHs and severity of loss is set out in the table below:

7. Impacts on Business and Income Loss

23. The project will require the relocation of 16 small shops belonging to 13 AHs. Of these five can move back behind the COI while the remaining 11 will require replacement land. The owners of the shops are expected to lose income during the three-day period of relocating their shops.

8. Impact on Female-headed and Vulnerable Cases

24. The DMS and survey of social conditions of affected households, indicates that there are 9 female headed households and 26 households (18 in ViengXai and 6 in Sop Bao District) living below the poverty line. Of the female headed households, 4 are severely affected being required to relocate and the other 5 are marginally affected.

B. ViengXai and Sop Bao Districts 28. ViengXai District, where whole NR6 and part of NR6A are located, is located in the east of Huaphanh Province. It is bordering with XamNeua District to the south, Sop Bao District to the north, and Vietnam to the east. The district has a total area of 1,587 square kilometers. The district had 107 villages, 5,839 HHs and 34,339 persons by 2008. Female population accounted for 49.1%. ViengXai is an officially recognized poverty district in Lao PDR, 44.6% of the HH were poor, with per capita monthly income below 82,000 kips (or US$ 120 annually) in 2008. The average per capita agricultural land was 0.09 ha per capita and the grain production was 370 kg per capita in 2008. Its major agricultural products include rice, corn, soybeans, vegetables and fruits.

29. Sop Bao District, where part of NR6A and whole NR6B are located, is in the northern part of Huaphanh Province. It borders ViengXai District to the south, XiengKhor District to the east, and Vietnam to the north and east. The district has a total area of 1,058 square kilometers.

Source: Field survey of each villages along the road NR 6A & NRA 6B in April-May 2013 D. Profiles of Affected Households 32. This section presents the profiles of affected households (AHs) obtained through sample household socio-economic survey (SES) of NR6A.

1. SES and Household Selection 33. Socio-economic data was collected through two survey instruments. The first was the project socio-economic survey, which covered the entire project area in November 2012. The sample for this survey included both affected and non-affected households. The survey sample included approximately 20% of affected households. The second data collection source was a separate socio-economic survey for project-affected households conducted in May 2013, which covered 100% of affected households. The surveys were conducted by ISAN/LTEC consultants and a locally mobilized survey team.

2. Structure, Composition, Employment and Education 34. The 25 villages have 1,558 HHs and 8,357 members in total. The average household size is 5.90. Among the1,558 HHs have three ethnic groups: Lao Lum 1,216 HHs, Hmong 265 HHs and khmou 77 HHs. Agriculture is dominant employment sector, and 1,558HHs (100%) are basically engaged in farming. All HH heads have no formal education due to living in remote areas and no teachers servicing these villages in the past.

3. Farmland Holding and Agriculture 35. There are two main types of land used for farming in the project areas. The first type is commune managed agricultural land (typically paddy). The land use rights for this are exclusively on a temporary basis and the land is reallocated and rotated amongst households on a 3-5 year cycle. The average per capita agricultural land area was 0.007 ha in 2012. The second main type of land used for agriculture is public land used for slash and burn cultivation 2F

3. This land is typically hilly land used informally by individual households. This is mostly under maize or vegetable cultivation. Approximately 17% of land under slash and burn cultivation is paddy providing an average of 0.01 ha of paddy land per capita. Another type is garden land is individually held and typically adjoins residential land and along the riverbanks. Garden land is typically small plots used to household consumption.

4. Land Tenure 36. All surveyed HHs reported using their paddy land on a short-term and temporary basis, with no title. Garden lands attached to houses and nearby the villages are mostly on a long-term basis, but some HHs just obtained their garden lands in 2006 and 2007. Local people are entitled to use their garden lands on a long-term basis, but they do not have permanent land title.

37. Agricultural land belongs to the state with land allocated for farming through land user rights. In Huaphanh Province, there is a long-standing practice of equitable distribution of farmland, especially paddy land. Farmland in each village is re-distributed every 3 to 5 years to village households on an equitable basis determined on a per capita basis. Households with more family members are thus apportioned larger areas of farming land than those with fewer members. The location of land appropriated to each HH is also rotated every time the land appropriation is re-calculated, so that no household permanently occupies the same piece of land after every 3 or 5 years. Different land classifications are appropriated similarly in this manner. This practice assures that every household is allocated a proportionate piece of land to till for crop production as source of food and income as well as equalize the use of every parcel of land owned by the whole village. To an extent, this may discourage individual efforts to invest on assigned lands because usage is temporary in nature. However this practice is an institutionalized tradition and is accepted by the people in the area.

3Farmers cut the trees and bushes on the mountain slope and burning after that they cultivate thrice, maize or other crops on the slope of mountain for 2-3 years and then rotate to another mountain slope in every 3 years.

5. Household Assets 38. The 2012 SES collected information on household assets. All households have mosquito nets and almost all have motorbikes (89%), fans (64%) and TVs (77%). The data regarding household assets is presented in the table below. The living standards of people who live in the center of districts along this road are similar to people who live in more remote areas because they are able to fulfill basic human needs such as having enough food, adequate clothing, having permanent housing, and access to health care, education and transportation service. Government programs are in place to ensure provision of basic social services (Prime Minister Instruction No. 010/PM, June 25, 2001).

10. Ethnic Groups 47. In Lao PDR there are 49 different ethnic groups. The official terminology for the classification of “ethnic groups” is in accordance with the Lao Constitution (1991) and a review by the National Edification Committee (August 2000) consists of a two-tiered system with 49 main ethnic groups and over 100 sub-groups. There are four main ethno linguistic categories in the country: Lao-Tai, Mone-Khmer, and Sino-Tibetan and Hmong-Iewmien groups. The term ‘ethnic group’ is used in place of the term ‘indigenous peoples’ used in the ADB SPS. In the project area population is comprised of three ethnic groups: Lao Lum 78.05% (1,216 HHs), Hmong 17.01% (256 HHs), and Khmou 4.94 % (77 HHs). While all three

groups self-identify as distinctive ethnic groups, the Lao national language is commonly spoken amongst all groups.

IV. POLICY FRAMEWORK

A. Introduction 48. The policy framework for this updated resettlement plan is based on the laws and decrees of the Government of Laos PDR and ADB’s Safeguards Policy Statement (2009) and in consistent with the resettlement plan prepared for the project under TA No. 6478 (Preparing the Second Northern Greater Mekong Sub-region Transport Network Improvement Project) in November 2010. There are several legal instruments related to the use and management of land in Lao PDR. Most relevant to this project are the Constitution (1991), the Land Law (04/NA 2003) and the Road Law (03/NA 1999). Additionally, the 2005 Decree 192/PM on Compensation and Resettlement for International Development Projects clearly outlines the required processes and actions for expropriation of land and compensation for other impacts. Subsequent Regulations for Implementing Decree 192/PM and Technical Guidelines for Compensation and Resettlement of People Affected by Development Projects were also issued in November 2005. This decree and its associated regulations and guidelines represent significant improvements in Lao PDR’s legal framework vis-a-vis ADB’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement. The relevant contents of each of these instruments are discussed in the following sections.

B. The Constitution 49. Article 14 of the Constitution declares that the State protects and promotes all forms of state, collective and individual ownerships. Article 15 declares that the land within the Lao PDR is owned by the national community and that the State ensures the rights to citizens to use transfer and inherit it in accordance with the law. Article 8 establishes the right of all ethnic groups relative to the preservation and promotion of their customs and heritage. All acts of division and discrimination among ethnic groups are prohibited.

50. These principles of protection, property ownership and land use are further elucidated and defined in the Road Law (1999 & 2003), all of which have bearing on current resettlement practices.

C. The Land Law 51. The Land Law, adopted by the National Assembly in 2003, is the principal legislation by which the State exercises its constitutional responsibility for tenure, access, use and management, and preservation of land. Several articles of particular importance to resettlement are summarized below: i） Article 3 reaffirms that all land in the Lao PDR is the property of the national

community (as stated in the Constitution, Article 15) for whom the State is the uniform central administrative representative throughout the Country and individuals are assigned to effectively use the land (only non-forest land in private title or land held under a long-term lease can be transferred).

ii） Article 5 protects the legal rights and benefits of those who have effectively received the right to use land including the right to transfer it.

iii） Article 11 classifies land into eight categories, and subsequent chapters of the Law are concerned with the management of each. The categories are: a) agricultural land, b) forest land, c) water area land, d) industrial land, e) communication land, f) cultural land, 9) defense and security land, and h) construction land.


Resettlement Report

32

iv） Article 31 defines that communication land is land used for roads and bridges, drainage channels, footpaths, electric lines, and etc. The management of which is under the MPWT.

v） Article 43, refers to the certification of the lawful land use rights of persons or entities. There are two land registration methods (Article 44) by which individuals can register the land, which they are using lawfully. First is systematic land registration, which is carried out throughout a designated area where land allocation, zoning, or classification is required. Systematic registration confers a Land Title. Second, persons or entities can make applications to certify their right to use certain land.

vi） Under Article 48, land certificates are issued by district level authorities for temporary right to use agricultural or forestland. These land certificates can be inherited, but cannot be transferred or used as collateral.

vii） Article 53 states that persons who have received the right to use the land have the following rights: to protect land for use for a specific objective, to use land for a specific purpose in accordance with the State’s allocation plan, to enjoy usufruct or income from the land, to transfer and inherit the use right.

viii） Article 63 states that the land use right shall terminate either through voluntary relinquishment of the land or if the State retrieves the land for public purposes. However, the landholder is entitled to just compensation for the taking over (Article 70)

ix） Compensation is treated in Articles 68 to 72 of the Land Law. Article 70 states that persons or entities requiring a right-of-way and thereby cause damage to crops or buildings must make appropriate compensation. Article 71 states that when the use of land belonging to other persons or organizations becomes necessary for the public interest, the State will compensate any damage suffered by the rightful user of the requisitioned land, as appropriate. Furthermore, the Law requires that each village, province, municipality, or special zone keep five percent of its total land area in reserve to ensure the compensation of requisitioned land.

x） Article 72 states that the evaluation of damages will be done by a committee composed of representatives of the various concerned parties.

52. The Land Law does not specifically address itself to unregistered land users. It does, however, provide the registration and certification methods described above by which individuals can register the land which they are using lawfully. Article 82 further provides that persons or entities that are lawfully keeping, using, and developing land with efficiency will be awarded the right to use that land.

D. The Road Law 53. The Road Law was adopted by the National Assembly on the 3rd of April 1999 and has been developed to define principles of management, use, planning, design, construction, maintenance and safety of public roads in the Lao PDR. The law outlines several issues in relation to the land required for these roads, and the management and use of these lands.

The Road Law defines that the “road” includes the corridor of land over which the traffic passes, and also the land on either side of the surface, which is reserved for extension of the road or for security activities of the road. Articles of the Road Law, which are relevant to land acquisition and resettlement for the Project, are: i） Article 19 states that privately owned land or land under permitted land use required

for road construction will be expropriated, and the owner will receive reasonable compensation.


Resettlement Report

33

ii） Article 20 defines the road limit for each class of road: i) 25 m either side of the center line for national roads, ii) 15 m either side of the center line for provincial roads, iii)10 m either side for district roads; and v) 5 m either side for community/rural roads.

iii） Article 21 states that no construction is permitted in the reserved areas. In Cases of necessity, the construction must be authorized by the Road Authority.

E. Decree on Compensation and Resettlement for Development Projects 54. This decree was issued on the 7th of July 2005 by the Office of the Prime Minister. Along with the decree’s Regulation on Implementation (November 2005) and Technical Guidelines (November 2005), they provide a comprehensive framework on resettlement planning in Lao PDR. Some of the more pertinent articles of relevance to the Project’s resettlement are: i） Article 6. Compensation principles state that before compensation, a joint committee

will be established to assess loss to Cases. Cases will be entitled to compensation for structures at replacement costs, compensation will be payable for losses of income due to projects, and those without documented legal titles will still be entitled to compensation for lost structures and other support so as not to be negatively impacted.

ii） Article 6 states that Cases who are living in rural or remote areas, who do not have any legal Land Use Certificate or any other acceptable proof indicating land use right to the affected land and assets they occupy shall be compensated for their lost rights to use land and for their other assets at replacement costs and provided additional assistances to ensure that they are not worse-off due to the project. Cases in urban areas, who do not have any legal Land Use Certificate or any other acceptable proof indicating land use right to the affected land and assets they occupy and who have no land at other places will be compensated for their lost rights to use land and for their other assets at replacement cost and other additional assistance to ensure they are not worse off due to a project.

iii） Article 8 states that Cases are entitled to economic rehabilitation measures if more than 20% of their income-generating assets are lost due to a development project.

iv） Article 11 states that voluntary donation of land by Cases is only acceptable if the impact on their income generation is not significant (less than 20% reduction), no physical displacement is caused, and Cases are fully aware of their entitlements before relinquishing them.

v） Article 11 also states that project proponents will define mitigations measures and socioeconomic benefits to improve the status of ethnic minority communities, which will be developed in consultation with the communities and in harmony with their cultural preferences.

vi） Article 17 requires a separate section on ethnic minority people’s issues and mitigation measures in the RP. Where impacts on them are more significant an Ethnic Minority Peoples Development Plan (EMDP) will be prepared.

55. The decree and its guidelines rectify key areas of the Land and Road Laws which would prevent informal land users from any eligibility, and also sets a clear definition of the “reasonable compensation” mentioned in the Land and Road Laws and determines these as replacement cost. The remaining gap between these regulations and ADB policy are discussed later.

F. ADB Policies and Requirements 56. The ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (2009) consolidates three existing safeguard policies: involuntary resettlement (IR), indigenous peoples (IP), and environment. The objectives of the IR policy are to (i) avoid involuntary resettlement, (ii) explore alternatives to avoid, (iii) restore livelihoods and (iv) improve living standards of poor and vulnerable households. The IP (or ethnic group in the Lao PDR context) policy objectives are to (i) design and implement projects that fosters full respect for ethnic group's identity, dignity, human rights, livelihoods systems, and cultural uniqueness as defined by the ethnic group themselves and (ii) ensure that ethnic groups receive culturally appropriate social and economic benefits, do not suffer adverse impacts as a result of projects, and can participate actively in projects that affect them. The policy on environment is discussed in a separate environment report. 57. The ADB Policy on Gender and Development (1998) adopts gender mainstreaming as a key strategy for promoting gender equity, and for ensuring that women participate in and that their needs are explicitly addressed in the decision-making process for development activities. The new safeguard policy and requirements also reiterates the importance of including gender issues in the preparation of safeguards documents at all stages to ensure that gender concerns are incorporated, including gender-specific consultation and information disclosure. This includes special attention to guarantee women’s assets, property, and land-use rights and restoration/improvement of their living standards; and to ensure that women will receive project benefits. Other policies of the ADB that have bearing on resettlement planning and implementation are the (i) Public Communications Policy (March 2005), and (ii) Accountability Mechanism (2003). 58. The SPS sets out the following principles3F4 to be delivered in the area of involuntary resettlement in all projects in which ADB is involved: i） Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary

resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks.

ii） Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernment organizations. Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and Indigenous Peoples, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations. Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the affected persons’ concerns. Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by a social preparation phase.

iii） Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through (a) land-based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods, (b) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value, (c) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for

4ADB,Involuntary Resettlement Safeguards, page 17 of the SPS.


Resettlement Report

35

assets that cannot be restored, and (d) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible.

iv） Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance, including the following: (a) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities, integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (b) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (c) civic infrastructure and community services, as required.

v） Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing.

vi） Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement to ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status.

vii） Ensure those displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets.

viii） Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule.

ix） Disclose a draft resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders.

x） Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of projects costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation.

xi） Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation.

xii） Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.

G. Key Differences between GOL and ADB Policies 59. The recent changes in the Government of Lao PDR (GOL) legislation related to compensation and resettlement in development represents a significant improvement in the


Resettlement Report

36

rights of citizens when their livelihoods, possessions and society are affected by development projects. Due to the recent changes, GOL’s and ADB’s policies on resettlement are now highly compatible. Keys gaps in policies on resettlement relevant to this Project are: i） Definition of severely affected persons varies between ADB (OMF1/OPpara9, 2010)

at 10% and Lao Decree 192/PM (Article 8) at 20% of income generating assets affected. However in accordance with Decree 192/PM (Article 6) which entitles all APs to economic rehabilitation assistance to ensure they are not worse off due to the Project, the 10% definition of severely affected will be adopted as part of the Project’s resettlement policy.

ii） GOL implicitly or even explicitly encourages voluntary donation of land (Article 11 of 192/PM- Decree on Compensation and Resettlement for Development Projects) if an AP’s loss of income is less than 20%. ADB SPS requires that all losses are to be compensated and impacts mitigated to ensure that the living standards of affected persons are maintained, if not improved, compared to pre-project conditions.

60. This RP uses the ADB criteria for defining severely AHs and does not encourage land donation.

H. Project Principles and Objectives 61. In line with GOL and ADB resettlement policies, the fundamental resettlement principles in this RP are: i） Involuntary resettlement and impacts on land, structures and other fixed assets will be

minimized where possible. ii） Affected Households (AHs) residing, doing businesses and cultivating land within the

required area as of cut-off date but verified during DMS (based on detailed design) will be entitled to compensation and rehabilitation assistance.

iii） Lack of formal legal title or rights will not be a barrier to eligibility for compensation and assistance under the Project.

iv） AHs will not be displaced from affected land until their villages allocate suitable alternative sites or compensation is paid that is sufficient to purchase suitable land within the same or neighboring villages. The district resettlement committees and relevant villages will ensure that AHs are able to find alternative sites or income sources.

v） All compensations will be based on the principle of replacement costs at the time of compensation. For houses and other structures, this will involve the costs for materials and labor at the time of acquisition, with no deduction for depreciation or for salvageable materials. Compensation for land will be replacement land as a priority, or where this is not possible, in cash adequate to purchase land locally of equivalent size and quality, and where required to improve land to achieve suitable quality.

vi） The process and timing of land and other asset acquisition will be determined in consultation with AHs to minimize disturbance. AHs will also be systematically informed and consulted about the Project, the rights and options available to them and proposed mitigating measures. The comments and suggestions of AHs and communities will be taken into account.

vii） Where houses and structures are partially affected to the degree that the remaining portion is not viable for its intended use, the Project will acquire the entire asset, and AHs will be entitled to compensation at replacement cost for the entire asset.

viii） The key information in the RP such as measurement of losses, detailed asset valuation, compensation and resettlement options, detailed entitlements and special


Resettlement Report

37

provisions, grievance procedures, timing of payments and displacement schedule will be disclosed to AHs in the form of public information booklet (PIB) before loan appraisal. In addition, notices in the form of information posters will also be placed in conspicuous and accessible locations such as district and village offices. The PIB and posters will be in local language.

ix） Resettlement identification, planning and management will ensure that gender concerns are incorporated, including gender-specific consultation and information disclosure. This includes special attention to guarantee women’s assets, property, and land-use rights, and to ensure the restoration of their income and living standards.

x） Existing cultural and religious practices will be respected and, to the maximum extent practical, preserved.

xi） Special measures will be incorporated in the resettlement plan to protect socially and economically vulnerable groups such as ethnic minority (EM) people, women-headed AHs, AHs headed by the disabled, the elderly, landless and people living below the generally accepted poverty line. Vulnerable AHs will be provided with appropriate assistance to help them improve their standard of living through asset building strategies such as provision of land, replacement housing of minimum standards and increased security of tenure.

xii） There will be effective mechanisms for hearing and resolving grievances during updating and implementation of the RP. Resettlement taskforce at village level will include representatives from AHs especially women and vulnerable groups.

xiii） Institutional arrangements will be in place to timely and effectively design, plan, consult and implement the land acquisition, compensation, resettlement, and rehabilitation programs.

xiv） Adequate budgetary support will be fully committed and made available to cover the costs of land acquisition and resettlement within the agreed implementation period.

xv） Appropriate reporting, monitoring and evaluation mechanisms will be identified and set in place as part of the resettlement management system. Monitoring and evaluation of the land acquisition, resettlement and rehabilitation processes and the final outcomes will be conducted by an independent monitor.

xvi） Voluntary donation will not be applied for any assets.

I. Project Entitlements 62. Various compensation measures and entitlements have been determined for all categories of land acquisition and resettlement impacts resulting from the Project. Entitled persons or AHs are those who satisfy the cut-off-date on 31 December 2012, which was publically announced in each of the project villages in December 2012 following completion of the census and intial DMS in November 2012. Project entitlements are shown in the entitlement matrix below.

V. RELOCATION AND REHABILITATION STRATEGY

63. This section of the RP presents the strategies to address impacts of physical economic displacement caused by land acquisition for the project in the area covered under the scope of this RP. There are 121 house structures belonging to 98 households and 15 shop structures belonging to 13 households, which will require relocation. Amongst the physically displaced households there are four female headed households. In addition there are 64 households which will be affected by the loss of productive land. Verification of provision of the specified allowances and assistance measures are detailed in the monitoring indicators for this updated RP (refer to Table 28.). The details of the impacts and strategies to address their needs are set out below.

1. Relocation of Houses and Shops 64. The Project will fully affect 137 main structures, consisting of 121 houses and 15 shops. Table 21 shows summary of affected main structures and relocation plan for each AH.

4 Permanent houses 26 40

• 2 houses can move back to behind land but the project should be grade their land or leveling,

• 38 houses have no residential land to move back, require the project to allocate the new land.

5 Wooden houses 55 64

• 6 houses can move back to their original land within 3-5 m, 6 houses have to dismantled and rebuild in new land (project should provide the land),

• 52 house required new land for relocating and rebuild their houses

6 Shops 13 15

• 5 shops can move back to their remaining land,

• 10 shops requested the project to provide them the new land.

Total 111 137

65. All above structures shall be removed from the site and the Districts will provide replacement residential land for the physically displaced households. Semi-permanent and wooden houses can typically be wholly relocated to new sites without damaging the


Resettlement Report

43

structures, if the distance of the new site is not too far. The district authorities have experience with similar projects, such as the WB’s road project (at the end of NR6B) and ADB 9 road project. If the houses cannot be relocated without causing significant damage, the structures will be compensated at replacement cost. Of the fully affected houses, 11 can moved back behind the COI and reconstruct on remaining land. Replacement land will be required for 100 households.

66. All affected residential land lots have Form 01 certificates. All AHs were given the option of cash compensation or replacement land. All AHs opted for replacement land. The replacement land will be provided in the same village and the house construction site will be fully prepared (e.g. leveling, filling, etc.) by the project.

2. Business and Income Loss 67. The project will require the relocation of 15 small shops. Of these 5 can move back behind the COI and reconstruct on remaining land. The remainder will be provided with replacement land. The owner of the shops are expected to lose income during the three-day period of relocating their shops. In view thereof, the shop owners will receive the cash equivalent of 3 days of work using the minimum daily wage of Kip 40,000, or an aggregate amount of Kip120,000 in compensation for loss of business income4F

5as well as other transitional assistance to which they are otherwise entitled, including relocation assistance. The affected households will receive compensation for the permanently acquired land. In addition the shop owners will receive assistance for site preparation of the remaining land upon which they will relocate.

68. The affected businesses will be given one-month advance notice to assist them to manage their affairs and prepare for relocation.

69. As for income loss from fruit trees, the Project will pay compensation at replacement cost to the APs and the APs may retain any materials from the trees to use as they see fit.Any standing crops affected by the project will be compensated at 1.5 times the annual value as indicated in the entitlement matrix.

3. Loss of Productive Land 70. A total of 12.7ha (consisting of 73 plots) of productive land will be permanently acquired. There are two categories of productive land acquired – village communal land and farming land held under individual land user rights certificates. Most of the affected land is communal and is a village asset. The total loss of productive land in the vast majority of villages is less than 1% of total productive land. The greater proportions of losses are experienced in Na Ngoua (9.5%), Hao Saen and Vieng Hang (3.5% each) and Hard San (1.4%). All the communal paddy land within the project villages allocated to village households on a 3-5 year basis after which the land is redistributed. The reallocation is equitable and is based on the number of persons per household. Only 1.01ha is under individual land user right certificate and is individually held by 24 households. Of these, 17 AHs will lose more than 10% of their affected land. The two categories of households losing productive land – those losing use of village communal land and those losing farming land are entitled to different forms of assistance due to the different nature of the impacts.

5The socioeconomic survey indicated that the net income of these shops is 450,000-700,000 Kips monthly or 15,000-23,000 Kips daily.


Resettlement Report

44

3.1 Loss of Village Communal Farming Land

71. Two forms of compensation and rehabilitation are provided for these households under this RP. First, as all paddy land within the affected villages is routinely redistributed amongst village households every 3-5 years, those losing use of productive land will have their full land allocation restored the next time paddy land is redistributed within the village. Land redistribution in any given affected village is to take place within the project period and no later than September 2016. Second, in the interim period, while waiting for land redistribution, affected households will receive a form of income stabilization support that is equivalent to 1.5 times the value of crops which otherwise would have been produced on the affected land. The income stabilization support will be paid in advance on an annual basis until the land redistribution. Specific monitoring indicators for both of these mitigation measures are included in the RP monitoring framework and will be reported on quarterly.

72. The long term impacts of loss of productive land per affected village is an impact shared by the village community as a whole given that productive land is routinely redistributed. However, this loss overall is marginal. Nevertheless, there are two forms of addressing the long term impact on the affected villages. First, priority will be given to replacing lost productive land where this is feasible. One option is the allocation of new land for farming which may require leveling unproductive land to convert to productive land where possible. The project is to undertake this work. Where provision of replacement land is not feasible, the project will provide compensation for the permanently lost land at replacement value, which will be paid to the village welfare fund. This fund will be used to assist poor households in meaningful ways, such as improving their income generating capacity. The provision of replacement land and/or the use of the funds paid to the village welfare fund will be monitored by the project.

3.2 Loss of Farming Land Held Under Individual Land User Rights Certificates

73. There are 24 households who will lose part of their productive land which is held under individual land user right certificates. Of these 17 will lose 10% or more of their productive land. The project will provide compensation at replacement cost for the affected land, income stablization support for a period of 3-6 months as well as income restoration assistance to assist them to restore their income levels over the longer term.

74. For households losing fishponds, the project will replace the fishpond by excavating a new fishpond on an alternative site.

4. Assistance for Vulnerable Households 75. There are 30 vulnerable households amongst the affected households requiring supplementary assistance. These consist of 4 severely affected female headed households and 26 households living below the poverty line. The information regarding vulnerable households will be reviewed and updated prior to the finalization of individual household compensation and assistance decisions by the district resettlement committees together with the village leaders and resettlement specialist to ensure that the list of vulnerable households is current situation at the time of displacement.

5. Allowances 76. The following table summarizes key allowances to support relocation and livelihood restoration.


Resettlement Report

45

Table 22 : Summary of Allowances for Relocation and Livelihood Rehabilitation

6. Income Restoration Program 77. An income restoration program consisting of training in income generation and agricultural extension (intesified farming and farming diversification) will be implemented to provide assistance to households experiencing permanent loss of productive land to assist them to restore their income levels to at least pre-project levels. The detailed program will be prepared by the PMU with support of the Project Management Consultant and in consultation with the Provincial Resettlement Committee, Provincial Department of

The program activities will be delivered by the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Forestry and District Agriculture and Foresty Offices in the respective project villages. The services will be provided to eligible APs free of charge and a provisional sum has been allocated in the resettlement budget to implement these activities.

78. Huapanh Province Department of Agriculture and Foresty has experience in implementing agricultural extension and rural livelihood diversification and has received ADB support in capacity development in these areas through two recent project: -Alternative Livelihood for Upland Ethnic Groups in Huaphanh Province (Grant No. 9117); and Northern Region Sustainable Livelihoods Through Livestock Development Project (Loan No. 2259; Grant No. 0055; Grant No. 0056; Loan No. 8229).

79. The schedule for key milestones for the income restoration program is set out below.

VI. GENDER STRATEGY

80. Special attention has paid to the women’s position in the affected area in the process of RP preparation, especially during the village level consultations and SES. In addition, household interviews were conducted to understand women’s position in the family and their participation in social public affairs. In general, women’s position in the family is increasing and men and women are basically equal. Women among the affected villages play important roles in every aspect of their families’ daily life and decision-making. However, due to the under developed local economy and the influence of traditional customs, the level of women’s participation in public affairs is still low in comparison with men.

81. Women as well as Women’s Union actively participated in the consultations and their views sought through various means. Women in the project villages are very supportive of the project and expect significant benefits of improved health (due to reduced dust and better access to health services) and improved access to markets and social services. (Please refer to RP chapter – Consultation, Participation and Disclosure for further details.)

82. Specific gender sensitive measures are included in the RP as set out below:

i） Women will be meaningfully consulted throughout RP preparation and implementation, including resettlement and livelihood restoration preferences where applicable. As needed separate consultation meetings will be organized for women to ensure their participation;

ii） Women are to be present during household surveys, such as DMS, and are required to jointly sign documentation related to confirmation of affected assets, compensation and assistance;

iii） Women are to be present during compensation payment and jointly sign compensation agreements and notices;

iv） New land user rights certificates, where issued, are to be in the names of both spouses heading households;

v） The Women’s Union will be actively involved in RP preparation and implementation, including forming a constituent member of the resettlement and grievance redress committees.

VII. ETHNIC GROUP SPECIFIC MEASURES AND PROJECT IMPACTS

83. The ADB SPS objective regarding indigenous people is to design and implement projects in a way that fosters full respect for Indigenous Peoples’ identity, dignity, human rights, livelihood systems, and cultural uniqueness as defined by the Indigenous Peoples themselves so that they (i) receive culturally appropriate social and economic benefits, (ii) do not suffer adverse impacts as a result of projects, and (iii) can participate actively in projects that affect them.

84. In Lao PDR there are 49 different ethnic groups. The official terminology for the classification of “ethnic groups” is in accordance with the Lao Constitution (1991) and a review by the National Edification Committee (August 2000) consists of a two-tiered system with 49 main ethnic groups and over 100 sub-groups. There are four main ethno linguistic categories in the country: Lao-Tai, Mone-Khmer, and Sino-Tibetan and Hmong-Iewmien groups. While Laos is composed of various ethnic groups there is no main ethnic group, which forms a main or dominant society or culture significantly distinct from the various constituent ethnic groups in the country. The term ‘ethnic group’ is used in place of the term ‘indigenous peoples’ used in the ADB SPS. Aspects of vulnerability or marginalization within the country are associated with geographical remoteness and access to resources or opportunities rather than related ethnicity.

85. In the project area population is comprised of three ethnic groups: Lao Lum 78.05% (1,216 HHs), Hmong 17.01% (256 HHs), and Khmou 4.94 % (77 HHs). While all three groups self-identify as distinctive ethnic groups, the Lao national language is commonly spoken amongst all groups.

86. Local communities have been consulted on project related matters through preparation of resettlement, environment and social development plans preparations. Consultations will continue throughout project implementation. A consultation and participation plan has been prepared for the project. All groups are fully fluent in Lao. As such the mode of delivery of information was in a form suitable to them. Traditional community elders have also been actively engaged in all the consultation meetings at the local level. The grievance redress mechanism is also culturally appropriate for the local communities.

87. Negative and positive impacts associated with the project as well as respective mitigation measures and channels of benefits delivery are set out in the table below.

Table 24 : Summary of Project Impacts

Impact Positive/ Negative

(+/-) Mitigation Measure/ Benefit Channel

VIII. CONSULTATION, PARTICIPATION AND DISCLOSURE

88. Meaningful consultation and information dissemination has been an integral component of the preparation of the RP. Meaningful consultation is a process that (i) begins early in the project preparation stage and is carried out on an ongoing basis throughout the project cycle; (ii) provides timely disclosure of relevant and adequate information that is understandable and readily accessible to affected people; (iii) is undertaken in an atmosphere free of intimidation or coercion; (iv) is gender inclusive and responsive, and tailored to the needs of disadvantaged and vulnerable groups; and (v) enables the incorporation of all relevant views of affected people and other stakeholders into decision making, such as project design, mitigation measures, the sharing of development benefits and opportunities, and implementation issues. Meaningful consultation commenced during the preparation of the RP as well as updating of this RP. It has been, and will continue to be held with stakeholders and affected households. It is most crucial during the final DMS when the inventory of affected assets is finalized and compensation and other resettlement concerns are sorted out with the AHs.

1. Mechanisms for Consultation 89. During the preparation of the updated RP, significant information dissemination and consultation with primary stakeholders were undertaken from October 2012, through DMS, village level meetings, sample household surveys, and meetings with key stakeholders.

90. Table 22 below summarizes the scope and extent of the surveys and consultations undertaken from October 2012 to June2013.

91. Of particular significance to resettlement, meetings were held in 25 villages on NR6A providing project information, advising of the DMS being undertaken and discussing issues of relocation, eligibility and safety. In total, 428 people attended these meetings. Besides that, DMS team consulted and gave PIB to each AH. Further, in preparing the RP, consultation meetings have been held with government agencies responsible for planning and implementing the Project resettlement at central, provincial and district levels. In total, 15 government officials from provincial and district level participated in the consultation meetings. Follow-up meetings on implementation preparation were also held with village leaders in May – June 2013.

2. Village Meetings 92. As indicated above, village meetings have already been held among the total 25villages along the road alignment. These meetings facilitated preparation for the awareness building for the proposed Project.

93. These meetings were specifically aimed at APs, but were also open to non-AP villagers, and provided an opportunity to discuss relocation options and other village level support. The meetings provided a forum for open discussion of these aspects and also plans and issues related to allocation of replacement land, where relevant.

94. All villagers in both consultation meetings as well as individual interviews expressed their support for the Project and for the civil works to start as soon as possible. The existing road is steep, in poor condition and muddy during the rainy season, which greatly affects the travel time required to access the district and provincial centers and services located there. Villagers view the project as means of improving their living conditions by improving access to services and transport of goods.

95. Key issues of concern and recommendations presented in the village consultation meetings included issues related to compensation, scheduling of civil works, pavement of village access roads, project-related work opportunities, and advance notice prior to land acquisition. A summary of the issues and project responses to these are set out below. Table 26 : Summary of Issues Raised by Villagers and Project Response

ISSUES RAISED BY APs PROJECT RESPONSE

Direct payment of compensation from Project to AHs; To facilitate streamlined disbursement of compensation, funds will be transferred by the MPWT to the DPWT provincial project office, which will in turn oversee disbursement of the compensation to AHs.

Civil works should be done during the dry or non-production season, or construct in unencumbered areas if construction takes place during production season (the engineer should identify these area for construction in early);

Most civil works activities will be undertaken during the dry season. Any works undertaken during the rainy season will endeavour to avoid or minimize disruptions.

Pavement of village access roads; The scope of works for the project includes pavement of approximately 20m of junction roads, but not pavement of other village access roads.

Participation in project construction; The works contract includes provisions to encourage the contractor to favour locally sourced unskilled labour. There is also a


Resettlement Report

52

requirement in the works contract for the contractor to meet a target of 25% women representation in unskilled labour.

Early notice to enable them relocate assets. AHs will be given a minimum one-month advance notice prior to relocation.

3. Involvement of AP Women and Ethnic Groups 96. In accordance with the requirements of technical guidelines, one of the objectives of consultations and participation has been to ensure the active participation of women and all ethnic groups as well as any vulnerable persons in the project areas.

97. Women actively participated in the public consultation meetings. In addition, separate focus group discussions were held with women in each of the project villages in preparation of the RP. The Women’s Union has also participated actively in the provincial and district level consultation meetings and is also a constituent member of the resettlement and grievance redress committees. During village consultations, women at difference ages were represented in the meetings. They all voiced their support of the Project and indicated that with road improvement, their health condition could be enhanced greatly due to: i) reduction of road dust, ii) better and easy access to healthcare facilities at district towns. Their agricultural products could be more easily transported to the market all year round, which could bring in more cash income for their families. Group consultations revealed that all women support the Project, and they agreed the roads to go throughout their village land areas, because in the rainy season is very hard to go to market and service centers.

98. Women household members participated in the DMS and both spouses of an affected household are required to be present during the compensation payment and both sign the compensation agreements.

99. The project area communities are comprised of various ethnic groups. All groups are fully fluent in Lao. As such the mode of delivery of information was in a form suitable to them. Traditional community elders have also been actively engaged in all the consultation meetings at the local level.

B. Public Information and Disclosure

100. A public information booklet (PIB) has been prepared (Annex 1). The PIB summarizes key information from this URP, policy principles and entitlements and special provisions, grievance procedures, timing for payments and displacement schedule. The PIB was distributed by the provincial and district authorities to Ahs during the DMS. Key elements of the RP were also disclosed to APs through public consultation meetings during the preparation and updating of the RP. This URP itself will be also made available at public accessible places, after ADB’s approval (provincial and district governor offices and affected villages)as well as be publically disclosed on the DOR project website and ADB website.

101. During DMS and RP preparation, relevant consultation meetings were organized in affected villages to disclose latest project and resettlement information and to provide AHs a forum to raise their further concerns and to participate in various processes of decision-making regarding their resettlement issues.

102. Details of finalized losses of individual Ahs are to be publicized in their respective villages by information sheets. When agreements are made and signed, AHs will be provided a copy of the final signed documents for their records.

IX. GRIEVANCE REDRESS

104. Article 13 of Decree 192/PM requires the Project to establish an effective mechanism for grievance resolution. Lao legal requirements for this mechanism are further described in Part VI of the Decree’s Implementing Regulations, and in detail in the Technical Guidelines.

105. The objectives of this mechanism are to ensure AHs’ satisfaction with implementation of the RP, and in effect provide for on the ground monitoring by AHs of the adequate implementation of the RP.

106. Decree 192/PM determines that the prime responsibility for grievance resolution is the Project proponent. As they are responsible for carrying out Project works which are likely the source of grievances (such as the DMS, establishing replacement costs, determining other allowances as well as any other project related matters) they are best placed to respond to and resolve grievances in the most timely and acceptable method. However, should AHs remain dissatisfied, they may bring up their complaints through other approaches as described below.

107. At the central level (PMU on behalf of DOR), within 6 months of ADB loan effectiveness, a taskforce will be established to receive and resolve complaints/grievances or act upon reports from stakeholders on misuse of funds and other irregularities, including grievances due to resettlement issues. The taskforce will: (i) make public the existence of this Grievance Redress Mechanism, through public awareness campaign, (ii) review and address grievances of stakeholders of the Project, in relation to either the Project, any of the service providers, or any person responsible for carrying out any aspect of the Project; and (iii) proactively and constructively responding to them. The PMU will be responsible for the resettlement grievances.

108. The provincial and district resettlement committees will serve as grievance redress committees at the respective levels for resettlement- related matters. The resettlement committees at the district and provincial levels, composed of concerned departments, local officials, village chiefs, AP representatives, women representatives, mass organizations will act as grievance officers.

109. The Resettlement Specialist in particular will take a proactive role in seeing that Village Chiefs and AHs are able to utilize the Project Problem Report Register form (Annex 3) informed the Village Chief during the Public Awareness Meeting and will use a database on problems reported to DPWT and their solutions, acting as a liaison as necessary between the villages and DPWT and between DPWT, the RC, and the PMU.

110. The project grievance redress procedure for this Project will operate as follows:

i） Step 1: Village Level. Initial points of contact will be between AHs and their village officials. The resettlement specialist will maintain regular contact with all village offices and represent the Project in consultations with grieved parties. All complaints and grievances will be properly documented by both the village offices and the resettlement specialist and addressed through consultations in a transparent manner aimed at resolving matters through consensus. Where the complaint is verbal, the village authorities are responsible for keeping a written record of the grievance.

If within 15 days of lodging the grievance, participants are not able to reach an amicable decision, or complainants are not satisfied with the Project’s decision, the complaint will be forwarded to the District Resettlement Committee (DRC). AHs may


Resettlement Report

56

forward their grievance directly to the DRC. It will be the role of the resettlement specialist to ensure that any unresolved grievance is forwarded in a timely manner to the DRC.

ii） Step 2: District Level. If AHs are not satisfied with, or do not receive a response from the DRC within 15 days of their complaint being lodged with the DRC, then the complaint can be forwarded to the Provincial Resettlement Committee (PRC). Again, forwarding the complaint to these bodies can be undertaken by the AP or with the assistance of the resettlement consultant or any others. It will be the role of the resettlement specialist to ensure that any unresolved grievance from the DRC is forwarded in a timely manner to the PRC.

iii） Step 3: Provincial Level. If the complaint still remains unresolved within 20 days of being lodged to PRC, AHs may forward their grievance directly to the PMU Taskforce on Grievance Redress.

iv） Step 4: Central Level. PMU Taskforce on Grievance Redress Mechanism will ensure to review and resolve all complaints within 15 days.

111. The complainant may lodge their complaint with the Civil Court at any stage of the grievance redress process.

112. All administrative costs incurred by AHs and their representatives are to be covered by the Project.

113. In addition to the above, any concerned community member may lodge a complaint or suggestion (anonymous or otherwise) in grievance boxes located in each village cluster (Khum Ban). These grievance boxes are opened on a regular basis by the village authorities of the Khum Ban together with the resettlement specialist. These complaints will then be referred and discussed with the district grievance committee for resolution and/or referring to relevant agencies.

114. The grievance committees will provide quarterly reports to the PMU on grievances received, including names and pertinent information about the AHs, nature of complaint, dates the complaints are lodged, and resolution of the same. Grievances not resolved will also be recorded, detailing negotiations and proposals which could not be agreed on, and the date of these negotiations.

115. In addition to the grievance mechanism described above, AHs may also (or permit representatives on their behalf) bring their concern to the attention of ADB through the ADB Resident Mission Office in Vientiane if AHs are still not satisfied with the resolution of their complaints at the Project central level.

X. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

116. Responsibility for resettlement spans various government agencies of various levels and they include the DOR (with PMU on behalf of it) of MPWT, Provincial Governor’s Office and relevant departments, district governor’s office and relevant sectors and authorities of affected villages. The involved agencies at provincial and district levels formed their respective resettlement committees while taskforces are established at PMU and in affected villages. In addition, management, design and contract supervision consultants are also involved in the planning and implementation of the resettlement, as needed.

A. Ministry of Public Works and Transport

117. The MPWT is the executing agency and will be responsible for the overall technical supervision and execution of the Project. DOR will be the Implementing Agency and will be responsible for the direct supervision and execution of the Project.

B. Department of Roads

118. DOR formed a management body named as PMU (project management unit) before loan effectiveness. This management body has five members and is headed by a project management director (PMD). PMU is responsible for: i) preparation of the overall project implementation plan, ii) providing overall construction supervision, iii) carrying out public awareness campaign on resettlement and other social issues, iv) supervising all project management activities at project sites, v) carrying out procurement, vi) organizing internal monitoring and evaluation activities, vii) preparing necessary project progress and project completion reports to be submitted to MBWT and ADB; and viii) ensuring full compliance with ADB’s resettlement, environment and other safeguards and policies.

119. A taskforce is formed within PMU for the overall coordination and management of RP preparation and updating, RP implementation and monitoring. This task force provides overall guidance and technical support to the PRC and DRCs.

120. DOR has gained considerable experience and capacity development in management of resettlement over the past decade through implementing a number of technical assistance and loan/grant projects of ADB, WB, KfW, SIDA and other international donor/banking organizations. Consequently, experienced staff have been appointed to fulfill the tasks of managing the overall resettlement implementation and monitoring.

121. A local level of project management unit has also been established at DPWT of the Province. This body is responsible for local management of all the construction works of the project on behalf of and under the director guidance of the DOR through the PMU.

C. Provincial Resettlement Committee

122. A provincial resettlement committee (PRC) has been established in the province with members from relevant departments including the DPWT, Lao Women’s Union (LWU), Department of Agriculture and Forestry (DAF), Department of Finance and Investment, and Planning. The PRC undertakes critical roles for RP updating and implementation including: i) conducting consultation meetings with DRCs, ii) establishing compensation rates (replacement costs) for affected assets; iii) conducting, reviewing and confirming final DMS data; (v) undertaking final agreement with AHs on compensation; v) managing funds disbursed from the Provincial Department of Finance for disbursement to AHs, vi) monitoring and reporting on all RP activities; and vii) acting as grievance officers. The PRC is supported by the DRCs, which are further supported by village heads. More details regarding the PRCare presented in Annex 8.


Resettlement Report

58

D. District Resettlement Committee

123. Similarly to that of the province, district resettlement committee (DRC) has been established with representatives of various sectors. The main responsibilities of the DRC are to facilitate various activities including: i) conducting DMS, facilitating public information and consultation by ensuring villages and AHs’ awareness at all stages of project planning and implementation, ii) assisting in the identification of alternative land for compensating AHs; iii) facilitating the affected villagers to adjust and redistribute paddy land among all AHs so as to minimize project impact; iv) assisting affected villages to organize labor and other support for AHs to remove and resettle their structures on site; v) assisting in the identification of special needs of vulnerable AHs and providing timely assistance, if any; vi) assisting and participating in DMS and confirmation of the results; vii) providing first point of contact in the Grievance Mechanism, and recording all grievances; and viii) coordination with the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Forestry to prepare and deliver income restoration program activities to eligible APs.

E. Village Head

124. The roles of the village heads include: i) assisting DRC to handle resettlement related work within the village; ii) assisting AHs to organize labor to move and relocate their structures onsite; iii) timely readjusting or relocating paddy land so as to compensate the AHs; and iv) allocating garden land to AHs.

F. Provincial Department of Agriculture and Forestry

125. Collaborate with the Provincial and District Resettlement Committees as well as PMU and Project Management Consultants to prepare the detailed income restoration program, including conducting consultations with eligible APs regarding their needs and preferences. Implement the income restoration program activities in the relevant project villages and report on program progress to the Provincial Resettlement Committee. Assist the PMU, Project Management Consultant and external monitor in their monitoring responsibilities.

G. Project Implementation Consultants

126. The PMU is assisted by 3 consultant teams, the first; the Project Management Consultant (PMC) oversaw the design modification; the second, a design consultant modified the design; and the third, the Contract Supervision Consultant (CSC) is engaged to supervise the road upgrading contracts and construction contracts.

127. These consultants are also responsible for assisting in the preparation and updating of the RP, support RP implementation as well as ensuring the contractor adheres to the RP, and are resourced with staff to facilitate this compliance.

H. Capacity Building for Implementing Bodies

128. The DOR has benefited from numerous capacity building programs. Before implementation of resettlement in this Project, the DOR gained more practical experience through implementation of the ADB 9-11 projects. The PRC and DRCs have likewise obtained previous exposure and experience in international best practice requirements for safeguards through implementation of ADB 9, WB and KfW road projects.

129. An Environmental and Social Operations Manual was produced for MPWT with technical assistance from WB in collaboration with ADB and SIDA in 2010. This Operational Manual was recently updated in October 2013. MPWT provided training to the provincial


Resettlement Report

59

and district agencies involved in the project in quarter 1, 2013 and provided copies of this manual. The training provided by MPWT also included training of trainer skill training.

130. For this specific project capacity building training on social safeguards has been provided to provincial, district and village authorities during the RP preparation and updating process. MPWT with support from PSC will provide follow up workshops along with on the job training to institutional stakeholders during project implementation.

131. Huapanh Province Department of Agriculture and Foresty has experience in implementing agricultural extension and rural livelihood diversification and has received ADB support in capacity development in these areas through two recent project: -Alternative Livelihood for Upland Ethnic Groups in Huaphanh Province (Grant No. 9117); and Northern Region Sustainable Livelihoods Through Livestock Development Project (Loan No. 2259; Grant No. 0055; Grant No. 0056; Loan No. 8229).

XI. IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS

132. This chapter describes the arrangements for disbursement of compensation and assistance as well as implementation schedule for key activities. Details on relocation, livelihood restoration, institutional arrangements and operation of the grievance redress mechanism are described in the respective separate RP chapters on these aspects.

A. Institutional Setting

133. Resettlement taskforce within PMU, PRC and DRCs already establishes on 22th August 2012 and on 20th September 2012 established additional RC for this Project. More details are provided in Annex 8.

B. Agreements with Affected Households (AHs)

134. DRCs, on behalf of PRC, will sign agreements with AHs prior to compensation and land clearance. The contents of agreement include: i) scope of impact; ii) land for land compensation arrangement; iii) compensation arrangements; iv) grievance redress procedures; and others. More detailed options for compensation payment to AH form can be seen in Annex 4.

C. Disbursement of Payment to AHs

135. Disbursement of payment to AHs will be done based on the Resettlement Implementation and Supervision Milestones (table 24) and PRC and AHs agreement. Replacement land will be provided before house relocating and civil works commencement in order to minimize disruption to AHs livelihoods. See Annex 11.

136. The Provincial Resettlement Committee (PRC), District Resettlement Committee (DRC), Village Resettlement Committee (VRC), PMU, Consultants and other related offices in the District will be involved during the compensation payment and all of them will be required to sign and stamp the compensation receipt form as witnesses. Photos will also be taken during the compensation handing-over. The payment of compensation will also be monitored carefully by the external monitor and be included in the external monitoring reports.

D. Implementation Schedule

137. For construction work, PMU will only issue notices to commence, for a particular length of the project road following approval of the updated RP and when: i) satisfactory arrangements of land redistribution and relocation sites are places; ii) satisfactory compensation payments to non-land losses with necessary assistances are provided; and iii) the area required for civil works is free of all obstructions.

138. Therefore, the smooth and satisfactory implementation of this updated RP is a precondition for commencement of civil works of the Project. The estimated schedule for land acquisition and resettlement is fromFebruary2014 to August 2014.

139. The expected schedule for key activities and milestones are set out in the table below.

XIII. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET A. Compensation Rates & Allowances

176. Compensation rates for this project are to be based on replacement cost values applicable at the time of payment of compensation. A replacement cost study was conducted during the preparation of the updated RP in September 2012. The replacement cost study was conducted by the provincial and district resettlement committees together with the project resettlement specialists and in consultation with village leaders and other relevant sources such building material suppliers. The results of the replacement cost study are presented in Annex 10 of the RP. To ensure that the compensation rates are at replacement value at the time of compensation, an updated replacement cost study will be conducted following approval of the updated resettlement plan and the unit rates revised accordingly. The results of the updated replacement cost study together with revised compensation rates will be disclosed to affected households prior to finalization of individual household compensation decisions.

B. Budget

178. The total cost will be approximately Kip 9,470,621,639 (approx. $1,183,828) comprising: i) compensation cost of Kip 5,540,674,400; (ii) Allowance Kip 1,314,600,888; (iii) Administration cost (10%) kip 701,527,529; (iv) Internal monitoring (10%) kip 701,527,529 ; (v) contingency (15%) kip 1,052,291,293. The cost for the external monitor ($50,000) is financed as a separate consulting package by ADB (contract awarded in March 2014). Accordingly the costs of the EMA are not indicated in the resettlement budget summary below. The budget summary is presented in this chapter in the table below. Details of compensation estimates for each AH are set out in Annex 7.

C. Flow of Funds

179. The PMU will be responsible for the financing of the resettlement, administration, internal monitoring and external monitoring. In accordance with the compensation policies and rates given in the RP, the PRC (on behalf of PMU) will sign agreements with affected villages and AHs and disburse the payments accordingly. The flow of funds will be: i) Ministry of Finance to an imprest account of PMU; ii) PMU to PRC; and iii) PRC to AHs.

180. The table below shows a summary of the resettlement budget for NR6A. All affected types of structures, trees, land areas, public facilities, included compensation cost, allowances and administration cost and project management is also included in the following table.

Annex 1: Public Information Booklet ADB TA 6478 REG Preparing the Second Northern GMS Transport Network Improvement Project Public Information Booklet Prepared by: Department of Roads Ministry of Public Works and Transportation August 2009 1. QUESTION: WHAT IS THE PROJECT

The Government of Lao PDR, with assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), intends to upgrade National Rood 6, 6A and 6B, in order to provide an alternate northern route through Laos, for both domestic and regional trade and traffic. The road improvement is expected to increase trade and tourism, expanding the economy and collectively bringing job creation, growth in incomes and poverty reduction.

2. QUESTION: IF THERE WILL BE ROAD IMPROVEMENTS ALONG OUR ROAD, WILL WE BE AFFECTED.

Yes. There will be both positive and negative impacts from the road development, and all possible efforts will be made to increase the positive, and avoid or minimize or make amends for the negative. Several planning and survey works will soon be undertaken for this purpose in 2010, including a Detailed Measurement Survey which will measure all affected assets, and include questions on household economics and activities. If your land, assets or livelihood will be negatively affected by the project, you will be entitled to support or compensation so that you are not worse off than you were before the road improvements.

3. QUESTION: WHEN WILL THIS DETAILED MEASUREMENT SURVEY BE, AND WHAT WILL IT MEAN?

The Detailed Measurement Survey will begin in early July 2010, and may extend into August. It will involve the measurement and inventory of your land if, with detailed alignment design, it would be affected by road development. Project staff, project design consultants, together with local village and district resettlement committee will come to you, record the affected areas and assets in the presence of yourself or/and other family members of yours. If your land or assets are recorded, it means that when the road is upgraded, your land may be affected, and if it is, then you will be eligible for compensation for any affected land or assets. This survey marks the official cut-off date for eligibility for compensation for affected people. This information will help the Government plan for the road, and perhaps change the engineering to reduce the impact on people, so it is also possible that in the end you may not be affected.

4. QUESTION: DO WE NEED TO CLEAR THE AFFECTED AREA IMMEDIATELY ONCE OUR LAND, HOUSES OR STRUCTURES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS AFFECTED?



67

No. When the Government is able to go ahead with the road upgrading, they will undertake more studies, including detailed engineering, and another, Final Detailed Measurement Survey for the final road alignment. For this reason, it is important that you don’t do anything differently with your land and assets in anticipation of the road upgrading or of compensation.

Clearing the project corridor of impact will only take place after agreement had been made with and compensation has been delivered to affected people, either as replacement land, assistance in moving affected structures, materials for rebuilding, or cash for losses and relocation costs. After the affected people have acknowledged receipt of support or compensation, the Project will provide a reasonable time and assistance for them to clear the area in order for construction activities to commence.

5. QUESTION: IF THERE WILL BE DISAGREEMENTS OR PROBLEMS THAT ARISE DURING PROJECT PLANNING OR IMPLEMENTATION SUCH AS COMPENSATION, TECHNICAL AND GENERAL PROJECT-RELATED DISPUTES, DO I HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOICE OUT MY COMPLAINT?

Yes. Any affected person may lodge a complaint. You may present your complaints to the concerned local administrative officials and resettlement committees. The complaint can be filed first at the village level and can be elevated to the highest or provincial level if you are not satisfied with the decisions made by the village and district level committees. Affected people lodging grievances will be exempted from all taxes, administrative and legal fees.

Attempts will be made to settle the issues at the village level through consultations, involvement of social experts as required, NGOs and mediators and facilitators if required. The concerned resettlement committees will properly document all complaints and resolutions.

7. QUESTION: WHEN IS THE PROJECT EXPECTED TO COMMENCE?

Preliminary planning for the road upgrading started in September, and will be ongoing until the end of 2012 if there is no delay.

8. QUESTION: WHAT IF MY LAND WILL BE AFFECTED BY THE PROJECT?

If your residential land is affected, you will have several entitlement options. If you are able to move your house back and remain on the same land, you would be entitled to be compensated with cash for the lost land or provided replacement land. If you must relocate, you would be entitled to a new residential site within the village, or cash compensation to relocate elsewhere, as well as assistance for the actual move.

Affected agricultural land would be compensated for with replacement land of equal or better quality.

9. QUESTION: DO WE NEED TO HAVE A LAND TITLE IN ORDER TO BE COMPENSATED?

No. Lack of formal legal rights to land does not prevent you from receiving compensation and rehabilitation assistance. All people who were occupying or using the affected land at the time of the official cut-off date will be entitled to full compensation and assistance under the Project.

10. QUESTION: DOES COMPENSATION APPLY TO MY AFFECTED HOUSES OR STRUCTURES?



68

Yes. Owners of all houses and structures that will be affected by the project will be entitled to compensation at replacement cost so as to enable the owners to have a house or structure of the same size and standard. If the houses can be moved or dismantled and rebuilt, the Project will provide assistance to do so and owners will be entitled to compensation for any costs for moving, dismantling and rebuilding.

11. QUESTION: WHAT ABOUT MY TREES?

Affected crops and trees will be eligible for compensation at current market value. Compensation for crops will be based on the anticipated harvest at market value, while trees will be based on the type, age and productivity.

12. QUESTION: WHAT ABOUT OUR COMMON PROPERTY RESOURCES?

For common property resources, the affected land will be replaced in areas identified in consultation with affected communities and relevant organizations. Affected buildings and structures will be restored to original or better condition.

13. QUESTION: IN CASE THERE WILL BE RELOCATION OF HOUSES OR BUSINESS INVOLVED, HOW CAN THE PROJECT HELP ME REBUILD MY HOUSE DURING RELOCATION?

Adequate time will be allowed between the time of compensation and the date for clearing the Project area for houses and businesses to be built and established while still operating in the original site. In addition, apart from the compensation for loss of land and other assets at replacement costs, the Project will provide additional entitlements to affected people to ensure their standard of living is maintained or improved after the Project.

14. QUESTION: DOES THAT MEAN THAT ANYBODY IN OUR COMMUNITY CAN CLAIM FOR COMPENSATION?

No. The Project will soon undertake a Detailed Measurement Survey to identify all those people whose land or other assets will be affected by the project. This survey will act as a cut-off date for entitlement to any compensation, and only those people surveyed will be eligible for compensation. People who encroach the area after the cut-off-date will not be entitled to compensation or any other form of resettlement assistance.
