Dear Volkan,

I apologize for delay in replying to your e-mail.  I am happy that we are proceeding with the health project and that retroactive financing is possible.  We will be happy to host your mission the week of May 7th.  Please let me know if the timing is acceptable to you.

Best regards,

Tamuna

Dear Tamuna,

I hope this email finds you well. Regarding your question about retroactive financing for GMP trainings (i.e. reimbursement for the activities completed before the project), I found out that it is possible. Here is the conditions:

If requested by the Borrower, the Bank may provide retroactive financing under a Bank Loan.  Retroactive financing may only be provided when:  (a) the activities financed by retroactive financing are related to the development objectives and are included in the Project description; (b) the payments are for items procured in accordance with the applicable Bank procurement rules; (c) the total amount of retroactive financing is 20 percent or less of the Bank Loan amount (40 percent for Projects covered by paragraph 12 of Section III of the IPF Policy); and (d) the payments are made by the Borrower not more than 12 months before the expected date of the signing of the legal agreements for the Bank Loan.

I am planning to come to Tbilisi with a consultant, Peeter Ross from Estonia, who has been involved in many e-health projects globally. Before the mission, we can provide him materials about the current system so that he can do some background work.

Are you available for the week of May 28? Or the week of May 7?

Best regards,

Volkan
