Description
1.

Pursuant to the terms of the Compact, the Government committed to provide funding as a Government contribution to support implementation of the Compact in an amount equal to no less than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the amount of funding provided by MCC in the Compact (the �Government Contribution�). 2. The Government of Ghana (�GoG�), acting through the Millennium Development Authority (�MiDA�), intends to apply a portion of the MCC Funding to eligible payments under a contract for which this Invitation for Bids (�IFB�) is issued.

The Compact and its related documents can be found on the MCC website (www.mcc.gov) and on the website of the MiDA. 3.
