Corporation.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
This report to Congress is
provided in accordance with Section
608(b) of the Millennium Challenge Act
of 2003, as amended, 22 U.S.C. 7707(b)
(the ‘‘Act’’).
SUMMARY:
Dated: September 29, 2011.
Melvin F. Williams, Jr.,
VP/General Counsel and Corporate Secretary,
Millennium Challenge Corporation.
Report on the Criteria and Methodology
for Determining the Eligibility of
Candidate Countries for Millennium
Challenge Account Assistance in Fiscal
Year 2012
Summary
This report to Congress is provided in
accordance with section 608(b) of the
Millennium Challenge Act of 2003, as
amended, 22 U.S.C. 7707(b) (the ‘‘Act’’).
The Act authorizes the provision of
Millennium Challenge Account
(‘‘MCA’’) assistance to countries that
enter into a Millennium Challenge
Compact with the United States to
PO 00000
Frm 00047
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
support policies and programs that
advance the prospects of such countries
achieving lasting economic growth and
poverty reduction. The Act requires the
Millennium Challenge Corporation
(‘‘MCC’’) to take a number of steps in
determining what countries will be
selected as eligible for MCA compact
assistance for fiscal year 2012 (‘‘FY12’’)
based on the countries’ demonstrated
commitment to just and democratic
governance, economic freedom, and
investing in their people, as well as
MCC’s opportunity to reduce poverty
and generate economic growth in the
country. These steps include the
submission of reports to the
congressional committees specified in
the Act and publication of notices in the
Federal Register that identify:
The countries that are ‘‘candidate
countries’’ for MCA assistance for FY12
based on their per-capita income levels
and their eligibility to receive assistance
under U.S. law. This report also
identifies countries that would be
candidate countries but for specified
legal prohibitions on assistance (section
608(a) of the Act; 22 U.S.C. § 7707(a));
The criteria and methodology that
MCC’s Board of Directors (‘‘the Board’’)
will use to measure and evaluate the
policy performance of the candidate
countries consistent with the
requirements of section 607 of the Act
(22 U.S.C. 7706) in order to determine
‘‘MCA eligible countries’’ from among
the ‘‘candidate countries’’ (section
608(b) of the Act); and
The list of countries determined by
the Board to be ‘‘MCA eligible
countries’’ for FY12, with justification
for eligibility determination and
selection for compact negotiation,
including which of the MCA eligible
countries the Board will seek to enter
into MCA compacts (section 608(d) of
the Act).
This report sets out the criteria and
methodology to be applied in
determining eligibility for FY12 MCA
assistance.
Criteria and Methodology for FY12
The Board will base its selection of
eligible countries on several factors
including the country’s overall
performance in three broad policy
categories—Ruling Justly, Encouraging
Economic Freedom, and Investing in
People; MCC’s opportunity to reduce
poverty and generate economic growth
in a country; and the availability of
funds to MCC.
Section 607 of the Act requires that
the Board’s determination of eligibility
be based ‘‘to the maximum extent
possible, upon objective and
quantifiable indicators of a country’s
