Although the initial impetus for this
poverty and social impact analysis (PSIA) was to inform the
Gecamines retrenchment program, it quickly became evident
during the scoping that the policy issues fell into two
broad categories: a) Short term which involved the key
issues of inquiry focusing on what the impact of this
program might be, how to mitigate negative effects, and,
according to the standard methodology for PSIA, whether the
alternatives to restructuring were better or worse than the
reform itself. Accordingly, a central question concerned
the degree to which Gecamines' degradation had already
caused adjustments in income and services and whether the
alternative of not restructuring would have been preferable;
and b) Medium term which stressed plans to restructure the
sector included re-centering on the company's core
activity and competency (ore extraction and production of
copper and cobalt metal), and minimizing its role as a
social service provider. The DRC Government had set a
timetable of 2 years for this transfer, but viable options
for the future provision of these services still had yet to
be defined. Upstream work on the degree to which
Gecamines' financial collapse has affected the
provision of these ancillary services (and therefore the
degree of impact from such a shift), as well as the design
of mitigatory mechanisms and institutional options was
essential as part of the PSIA. |
