Independent Review of
RBD
Bangladesh's Development
Redesigning support measures
□ The transparency and accountability of Bangladesh's COVID-19 stimulus
plan will be the key to its successful operationalization and implementation.
Hence it is critical to make sure that the beneficiaries are selected
based on clear, objective and quantitative criteria and vested
interests are not allowed to intervene.
☐ Beneficiary targeting, or to bring in the right group of people, has been a major
weakness of SSNPs in Bangladesh.
Reducing leakages and proper targeting can help release significant amount of
resources that can serve the more vulnerable and deserving groups more
effectively.
□ The general problems of errors in the listing of poor who need relief will
deprive several poor including women.
Without connections with the local powerful people, it has been
proved to be difficult to get included on the list of beneficiaries.
Such malpractices have been reported in the media even during COVID-19
crisis.
