B. Follow-up Measures, Time Frame for Action and Primary Responsibilities

115. The Task Force has also identified follow-up and monitorable measures related to each key recommendation. While some of the measures can be implemented quickly, a few will need to be evaluated further, before a final decision can be taken on their implementation. The latter approach is unavoidable, because the Task Force has evolved its recommendations primarily on the basis of project quality considerations, and some recommendations may have implications for other aspects of the Bank's operations.

116. The Task Force has recommended a time frame for accomplishing action on the proposed key recommendations. Some of the proposed recommendations can be implemented immediately. For others, a time frame of six months, one year or two years has been recommended as guideposts for completing action on the further steps, depending on the effort needed to accomplish the measures concerned. It is proposed that the status of implementation of the recommendations be updated from time to time, and steadily convergent estimates be made for completion of action. The Task Force also recognizes that the responsibility for implementing the recommendations is Bankwide, but it has determined the primary responsibility centers for implementation. These primary responsibility centers will initiate and coordinate the actions required to implement the proposals.
