Background
The Revenue Mobilisation, Investment and Trade (REMIT) Programme, funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth &amp; Development Office (FCDO) and implemented by Adam Smith International (ASI), provides technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan to improve the business environment, attract investment, and support sustainable economic growth.
Pakistan's Special Economic Zones (SEZs) framework is governed through a complex legal and regulatory architecture spanning federal and provincial legislation, rules, notifications, contractual arrangements, and administrative instruments. As part of Pakistan's commitments under the IMF programme, the Government is undertaking a comprehensive SEZ Phase-Out Implementation Plan to transition away from profit-based incentives toward a rules-based, fiscally sustainable framework anchored in cost- and performance-based facilitation.
The implementation of this transition requires a detailed review of the legal and contractual framework governing SEZs to assess the implications of proposed reforms, identify legal risks and constraints, and ensure compliance with domestic laws, investor protections, and existing contractual commitments. This includes analysing the legal basis of existing incentives, grandfathering provisions, contractual obligations, and the legislative changes required to support the transition process.

<div>SEZ Incentives Phase Out &amp; Transition Plan &ndash; Institutional Analysis Expert
Background
The Revenue Mobilisation, Investment and Trade (REMIT) Programme, funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth &amp; Development Office (FCDO) and implemented by Adam Smith International (ASI), provides technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan to improve the business environment, attract investment, and support sustainable economic growth.
Pakistan's Special Economic Zones (SEZs) framework has delivered limited results due to a range of institutional, governance, and coordination challenges. Fragmented responsibilities across federal and provincial authorities, weak monitoring mechanisms, overlapping mandates, and inconsistent implementation arrangements have constrained the effectiveness of the SEZ regime. These institutional weaknesses have contributed to delays in zone development, investor grievances, underutilisation of land and infrastructure, and limited progress toward achieving intended investment, industrialisation, and export objectives.
In response to these challenges, and in line with commitments under Pakistan's IMF programme, the Government of Pakistan is undertaking a comprehensive SEZ Phase-Out Implementation Plan to transition away from profit-based incentives toward a rules-based, fiscally sustainable framework anchored in cost- and performance-based facilitation. This transition requires a detailed assessment of the institutional architecture governing SEZs to identify governance gaps, coordination constraints, and implementation bottlenecks, while defining an effective institutional framework for the transition process.
As part of this effort, REMIT seeks to engage an SEZ Institutional Analysis Expert (Workstream-I Lead) to lead the institutional and governance assessment of Pakistan's SEZ regime and support the development of practical and implementable institutional reform recommendations.

The Expert will work closely with the SEZ Policy &amp; Governance Lead, Fiscal &amp; Incentives Expert, Legal &amp; Contractual Expert, and other members of the technical team to ensure that the proposed transition framework is institutionally feasible, effectively coordinated, and aligned with broader investment and economic reform objectives.

Background 
The Revenue Mobilisation, Investment and Trade (REMIT) is a multi-year (2021&ndash;2027) programme funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and implemented by Adam Smith International (ASI). REMIT provides technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan to strengthen macroeconomic stability, improve growth conditions, and enhance poverty reduction efforts.
A central part of this work is the development and institutionalisation of Climate Budget Tagging (CBT) and Gender Budget Tagging (GDT), which systematically classify, track, and report climate- and gender-relevant public expenditures at the federal and provincial levels. CBT and GDT aim to strengthen transparency, accountability, and alignment of public spending with Pakistan's commitments under frameworks such as the IMF's Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF), the Paris Agreement, the Sendai Framework, and SDG 5 on gender equality.
Activity Context 
The Government of Pakistan has prioritised transparent, accountable, and climate-resilient public financial management. As part of this agenda, REMIT is supporting the institutionalisation of Climate Budget Tagging (CBT) and Gender Budget Tagging (GDT) &ndash; systems for identifying, classifying, and reporting on climate- and gender-related public expenditures across all levels of government.
Following successful implementation at the federal level across three budget cycles (FY 2022&ndash;23 to FY 2024&ndash;25), and in line with the IMF's Extended Fund Facility (EFF) benchmarks, REMIT has expanded the initiative to all four provinces and two regions. The Ministry of Finance has requested REMIT to work with the provincial and regional governments of Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Azad Jammu &amp; Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan to carry out climate and gender budget tagging of their budgets.
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa faces significant climate vulnerabilities including glacial lake outburst floods and extreme weather events. As part of this REMIT-supported activity, the KP Finance Department has nominated focal persons, integrated CBT and GDT provisions into the Budget Call Circular, and conducted training for line agencies. Tagging of the non-development budget has been completed.
The remaining work covers: tagging of development budgets (PC-1s), finalization of the FY 2026-27 tagged budget, preparation of climate and gender budget statements, institutionalisation workshops, FABS integration, and analytical reporting.
