National Oversight Committees (NOCs)

National Oversight Committees (NOCs) have been established in each of TMA’s country of operation in order to assure ownership and oversight at a national level. A Programme Coordinating Committee (PCC) has also been established with a similar purpose for EAC and regional programmes. These Committees are responsible for quarterly oversight and review of the performance of TMA programmes, and making recommendations to the Board. The Committees are composed of key partner institutions implementing TMA programmes at a national level, as well as private sector and civil society representatives from the relevant country, and representatives of investors. In the case of PCC, the key members are representatives of the institutions and senior staff of the EAC Secretariat. Chairs of the Committees interact with Board members at least twice a year.
