-ac G 1 2 PART ONE 4.O MACRO.LEVEL OBSERVATIONS AND RBCOMMENDATIONS 4.1 Proposed Annual Budget FY 2OLA|L9 6.

The total proposed annual budget for FY 2018119, as originally submitted to Parliament by the Minister of Finance, Planning and Economic Development on 29th March, 2018, amounted to shs.

3O,9O5.5 billion, of which shs.

2O,745.83 billion (67.13% to the total) was for appropriation and shs.

10,159.67 billion (32.87% of the total) was for statutory expenditure.

7.
7.

However, on 9tr M"y, 2Ol8 the Minister of Finance, Planning and Economic Development submitted Corrigenda to the Draft Estimates, and an addendum to the Corrigenda, which revised the total proposed annual budget for FY 2ot8ll9 to shs.

3.2,367.49 billion, of which shs.

22,258.796 billion is for appropriation and shs.

1O,108.633 billion is for statutory expenditure.

8.

The annual budget for FY 20l8ll9 will be at 11.60/o above the approved budget for FY 2Ol7 ll8, which amounted to Shs.
29,OO8.5 billion, indicating that government demand has increased in the economy.

The main contributor to the budget growth is Government Consumption (at 5.8%) and Government Investment will contribute 4.loh.

9.

The Committee notes that the growth of the annual budget or government demand (at ll.6%l is higher than the projected growth in the entire economy (at 5.5%).
This implies that growth of other economic agents activities (such as private Consumption and private Investment), will be constrained and/or the current account deficit will widen .2 Budget Strategy for the FY 2OL8l Lg 10.The Budget strategic priorities for FY 2ol8l19 will focus on the following key interventions.

a) Enhancing Production and Productivity of the key primary growth sectors, lfoft!

\N including Agriculture, Tourism and Oil and Gas.


b) Interventions to speed-up implementation of Infrastructure.

c) Support to Private Sector Investments.

d) Improving Service Delivery, especially in the health sector e) Salary Enhancement for tJM- categories of Public Servants Roads and Enerry 61* A3 I D 11.
The Committee notes that, whereas the Budget Strategr Fy 2018/lg is well focused to address the current and medium term economic challenges, it is short of addressing the critical factors contributing to the low economic growth for the last three years of implementing the NDPIL The Committee notes that there is stitl lack of efficiency, effectively and economy in the utilization of the national resources and this implies that the country may not be able to achieve the lower middre-income status by 2o2o.
12.

The Committee notes that there is need to rationalize the budget strategr to be harmonized with the national planning.

According to the NpA compliance assessment report, implementation of most NDPII core projects is well behind schedule.

There is an urgent need to streamline and harmonize the national planning and budgeting.

13.

The Committee notes that a number of key interventions in the Budget Strategr are either partially funded or not funded at all.
For instance, financing to empower the Cooperative movements and SACCOs to provide cheap loanable funds for the growth of the private sector, is not adequately catered for in the annual budget.

Government should quickly revitalize the Uganda Development Bank (UDB) by providing sufficient recapitalization and functional management.

14.
14.

The Committee notes that while Government indicates that salary enhancement for some selected categories of Public servants will improve service delivery, no sufficient funds have been allocated in the Fy 20lSllg budget.

15.

The Committee observes that the Pension sector is running out of hand and there is an urgent need to review the pension and retirement bill, in order to bring the informal sector on board.
It has become increasingly difficult for the pensioners from the public sector, to access their retirement and pension benefits, hence the need to revert to a contributory scheme and to open up the market for competition in the pension sector.

4.3 Consistency of the Annual Budget with the Charter of Fiscal Responsibility (CFR) 16.

On 21"t December, 2016, Parliament approved the Charter for Fiscal Responsibility (cFR) for this country for a period Fy 2016lrr Fy 2O2O 121.
The CFR presents Government's stratery for operating a fiscal policy which is consistent with sustainable fiscal balances over the medium term and the maintenance of prudent and sustainable levels of public debt.
The approved cFR specifies the following measurabre fiscal o bjectives: J 4 a) The Government fiscal balance (including grants) is reduced to a deficit of no greater than 3oh of GDP by FY2O2O l2l; b) Public debt in net present value terms is maintained below 50% of GDP; of which the net present value of external debt is maintained below 3ooh of GDP and the net present value of domestic debt maintained below 2Oo/o of GDP.

17.
17.

Subject to Section 13 (6) of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015 (as Amended) the Committee assessed the fiscal measurable objectives of the CFR against the proposed annual budget FY 2ol8ll9 and made the following observations: af The overall fiscal deficit projected to rise to 6.70/o of GDP in FY 2OLgl19 from 6.20/o projected for FY2OLTlLa; bf The public debt in net present value (NPVI terms, is projected to increase to 360/o of GDP in FY 20l8l19 from 29.5o/o projected for FY 2Ot7 I L8.

18.
18.

The Committee was able to confirm that the Annual Budget for FY 2OLBlL9 is consistent with the Charter of Fiscal Responsibility as required by section 13(6) of the PFM Act (2015).

However, the Committee observes that, the Fiscal deficit is still on the upward trend, instead of reversing the trend in preparation to converge at no greater than 3oh of GDP by FY 2O2O I 2t.

19.
19.

The fiscal deficit projection of 6.7 percent of GDP for FY 2ol8l19 is above the CFR and EAC monetary convergence criteria of 3 percent of GDP.

Government will have to adopt austerity measures to minimize resource wastage as well as promoting efficient use of resources in order to meet the CFR and EAC monetary criteria threshold on fiscal deficit by FY 2O2O/21.

4.4 Compliance of the Annual Budget to the NDPII 20.
Overall, the compliance of the FY 2Ol7 118 annual budget to NDP[[ was assessed at 54.2o/o, hence unsatisfactory.

The score is below the one registered the previous FY at58.8%.The declined score was attributed to the poor performance at the macroeconomic level, National Strategic Direction level and at the Sectoral level (refer to Table 1).
However, there was improvement at the Local Gove nt level from 51.8% to 62.20/o Table 1: Compliance Bof the Annual Score 5 l) to the NDPII Remark.on\^rr Level of Assessment Macroeconomic National Strategic Direction Sectors/ MDAs FY 20L6 I t7 48.t 74.2 60.1 FY 2OL7 I t8 assessment 41.9 Unsatisfactory Moderately satisfactory 68.1 53.2 Unsatisfactory Local Government Overall Score (weighted) 51.8 58.8 Source: CoC to NDP II, National Planning Authoity (2018) 62.2 54.2 Unsatisfactory Moderately satisfactory 21.
The compliance assessment at the sectoral level indicates that only four (4) out of the seventeen (17) sectors achieved some improvement (refer to Table 2)..

The Committee observes that the compliance assessment points to a serious declining trend in budget implementation and Government needs to identify and address issues that constrain compliance to the NDPII.
The four sectors which improved on their compliance should be commended and these include Health, Works and Transport, Social Development and Defence and Security.

22.

The weak level of compliance was mainly attributed to the challenge in translating sector strategic plans into budget actions that contribute to achieving the NDP II targets due to some weaknesses in planning.
The Compliance assessment revealed that budget macro-economic targets were significantly differing from the NDP II targets; an indication that achieving a middle-income status by 2O2O is quite unlikely.

Nevertheless, NPA advises that the country should remain focused on the middle-income agenda by pragmatically and prudently implementing the prioritized interventions in the Vision 2O4O and its attendant plans.

23.
23.

The Committee notes that, Out of the sixteen (16) sectors, fifteen (15) have development plans approved and aligned to the NDPII; out of the 13S MDAs, eight-nine (89) have approved plans that are aligned to the NDPII strategic direction and time frame; eighteen (18) have existing plans though not aligned to NDPII time frame, eighteen (18) have draft plans and; ten (10) have no strategic plans.

The Committee notes that, a certificate confirming L is Gender and @ in the House by the 7 t t ster as per the requirement of section 13(11)(e) of the PFM Act, 2OlS.

What was submitted to the Rt.

Hon.

Speaker's office was a certificate of Gender and Equity Compliance for Ministerial Policy Statements in response to section 13(1sxg) of the PFM Act, 2OtS.

26.
26.

The gender and equit5r assessment of the annual budget is expected to point out Sectoral and Geographical imbalances in various areas including Education, Health, Water and sanitation, Energr, Roads and transport.

The gender and equit5r assessment is supposed to provide measures that could guide Government on how to address the identified imbalances.

27.
27.

The Committee recommends that in future, the Minister should comply with section 13(11)(e) of the PFM Act, 2OI5, and provide an assessment of the annual budget, in order to provide Parliament with a bigger picture of the gender and equity considerations of the budget.

4.6 Compliance of the Ministerial Policy Statements to Gender and Equity Requirements 28. on 05ft Aprir, 2018, however, under section 13(1sxg) of the pFM Act, 2oLS, the Minister submitted to the Rt.

Hon.
Hon.

Speaker of Parliament a certificate of Gender and Equity Compliance certifying that some Ministerial policy Statements were compliant with the Gender and Equity requirements.

The Committee noted, however, that the certificate was short or measures taken to equalize opportunities for men, women, persons with disabilities and other marginalized groups as required by the law.

29.
29.

The assessment indicates that Out of the 138 MDAs, 85 MDAs (61.6%o of the total) achieved the required pass mark of 5Oo/o,21 MDAs (15.2% of the total) performed below the Pass Mark and,;32 MDAs (28.2o/o of the total) did not submit their Ministerial Policy Statements and were not assessed.

The best MDAs scored 88% and the worst scored llo/o, with the majority falling between 59o/o - sOVo.

30.
30.

The Committee recommends that, in the subsequent financial year, the pass mark should be raised from 50% to 6Ooh, to 31.

As Parliament observed in the previous years, some Accounting Officers, have not fully appreciated the requirements under the PFM Act (2015).

This perhaps explains why some of the MDAs scored poorly with regard to gender and equity issues and others never submitted statements for assessment.
The Committee observes that there is need for the MFpED to carry out a deliberate sensitization and awareness programme of the pFM Act to all Accounting Officers 8 I 32.

The Committee recommends that EOC publishes and sensitizes all MDAs and Local Governments on the guidelines for Gender and Equity assessment.

33.
33.

The Committee recommends that, to ensure effective implementation of the PFM Act, on Gender and Equity issues, Sectoral Committees of Parliament should take interest in monitoring progress of the Gender and Equity interventions.

34.
34.

In the previous year, Parliament recommended that, the Accounting Officer for a Vote that fails to submit its MPS to the EOC for Gender and Equity assessment and for a Vote, whose score is below 5oo/o, should be tasked to make a detailed explanation to the House and their appropriation withheld until necessary scores are attained.

The Committee recommends that appropriation be withheld for Votes that did not pass the assessment and Votes that did not submit their policy statements for assessment.
4.7 Multi-Year Commitments of Government FY 20l8lL9 35.

The Committee observes that the total financing requirement the multi-year commitments of Government for the FY 2ol8l19 - FY 2022123, amounts to shs.

3.4.963 trillion, of which shs.

18.527 trillion (53%) is GoU and shs.

L6.436 trillion $7%ol is External financing.

36.


However, Multi-year Commitments in FY 20l8ll9 for new and ongoing projects amounts to Shs 8.064 trillion, of which Shs 2.739 trillion (321%) is GoU financing and Shs.5.324 trillion (660/ol is external.The Committee notes thatthe total development budget under the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (FY 2018l19 - FY 2O22l23) stands at Shs 11.79,6 trillion in FY 2Ol8l19.
This implies that, the Multiyear Commitments are well covered by the MTEF provisions for FY 2ol8l19.

37.

The Committee noted, however, that some key projects that are covered in the MTEF, do not appear in the multiyear commitments, and these include: a) Multinational Lake Victoria Maritime Communication ""dlJ-n , JZJ V/ Transport project (shs.

1 1.084 billion) New Standard Gauge Railway Line (shs.

72.2 billion) c) Development of new Kampala Port in Bukasa (shs.

According to the statement made by the Minister, a total of 7 new projects have been granted project codes for inclusion in the plp for Fy 2OLg l lg and for subsequent appropriation by Parliament in line with Section (13) of the PFMA Act 2OI5.

Notable among these projects is the revival of the Uganda Airlines, Kiira Motors Corporation, Land Acquisition and a number of retooling projects for UNRA and Office of the President.
These projects are expected to impose financial obligations on the Budget of Fy 2OlSllg to a tune of shs.

1.138 trillion.

The rest of the externally funded projects under this category which include National Oil Palm project and Local Economic Growth Support Project await final approval by parliament.
4.8 Budgets of Public corporations and state Enterprises Fy 20r8l L9 4O.In compliance with Section 13(3) and Section 13(11X0 of the Fublic Finance Management Act, 2015(as amended), the Minister for Finance, planning and Economic Development laid before Parliament, the proposed budgets for Public Corporations and State Enterprises for Fy 2}lg l lg.

The Committee notes that budgets for thirty four (34), out of the sixty four (64), Public Corporations and State En submitted to Parliament.
10 c) ( Therefore, 30 Public Corporations and State Enterprises did not comply with the PFM Act, 201S(as amended).

41.

The Committee notes that during the FY 2ol8ll9, the 34 Public Corporations and State Enterprises are projected to collect a total revenue of shs.

1,689 billion.

Although much of the collection will be utilized for their operations, some State Enterprises will generate some surplus amounting to shs.

23.3 billion (refer to Table 4).

Section 13(6) of the Public Finance Management Act (2015) provides that the annual budget shall be consistent with the National Development the Charter of Fiscal Responsibility and the Budget Framework Paper.

3.

The Committee notes that there were inconsistencies in sectoral allocation between the approved BFP and the Annual Budget as demonstrated in Table 5, below.

The total allocation (excluding Arrean and AiA), reduced by 3o/o from shs.

The Committee notes that the projected budget discretionary resources for FY 20l8l19 amounts to shs.

14,309.4 billion which is just 44.9o/o of the annual resource envelope.

Although the discretionary resources in FY 2ol8l19 will increase by shs.

I,492.9 billion (11.65%) compared to the current FY 2017 l18, the percentage share of the discretionary budget over the total resource envelope will not change significantly (refer to Table 9).
The Committee observes that the low share of the discretionary resources in the Government budget raises a question of fiscal space and fiscal sustainability in the short and medium term.

55.

The Committee notes that the percentage share of the interest payments to the total resource envelope will remain high at8.27%o in FY 2ol8l19.

The high interest payments constrain resources that would otherwise be utilized in the productive and social service sectors of the economy.
The increased spending in the productive and social service sectors will trickle to the majority of the citizens and ensure inclusive growth and sustainable development.

Since 2OOl, Government has implemented the fiscal decen strategr with the objective of empowering local governments in service delivery.

However, Local Governments are challenged as most of them do not have capacity to mobilize locally generated funds and cannot attract donor funding, hence heavily relying on conditional grants from the Central Government.

The Local Government Grants are inadequate to fund cri and unique outputs for effective delivery of decentralized services.

60.
60.

It is projected that in FY 2OI8l19 shs.

3,o,92.132 billior (whichis 9.60/o to the Local Governments of the national budgetl, s 19 for recurrent and development operations.

This is far below the 30% share of the national budget, as envisaged under the NDp II.

61.
61.

The Committee observes that six (06) new Local Governments have been brought on board starting FY 2018/19.Despite the expansion of the Local Governments, the share of the national budget that is transferred to the Local Governments remains stagnant.

This defeats the whole purpose and intent of the decentralization policy.

62.
62.

The Committee observes that of recent there have been agitations to recentralize recruitment and supervision of some of the professional cadres at local Governments for instance the Health and the Veterinary services.

The Committee recommends that instead of calling for recentralization of these services, government should instead build capacity of these cadres and ensure effective supervision at Local Government.

63.
63.

The Committee observes that a number of programs continue to be designed, budgeted and managed at the Central Government Level but implemented at the Local Government level and yet these services can be offered by Local Government at a lower cost and more optimally.

Examples include Operation Wealth Creation, Youth Livelihood Program, Water for production program among others.

This practice continues to undermine the whole notion of Decentralization.
Decentralization is premised on the idea that Local Leaders understand well their community challenges and therefore can design better solutions to address them.

4.15 Output Gap and Inflation projections for Fy 2O18l19 64.

Output Gap is defined as the economic measure of the difference between potential Gross Domestic Product (GDP)I and actual GDP for a given period of time.
Determination of the level of Output Gap is a key benchmark against which to assess inflationary or disinflationary pressures and the cyclical position of the economy.

When the actual output is greater than the potential output, this implies that an economy is experiencing excess demand.

Table 11: Uganda's Output Gap F'Y 2OO8 lO9 - 2OI.9l2O Actual GDP Potential GDP Period t lPotenual ouput is the maxrmum output an economy could sustain without generating rise in Inflation.

It can be noted from Table 1 1, that for the period FY 20121 13 to 2OI5l 16, the output gap has been negative which implied that the economy has been operating below Uganda's estimated potential productive capacity.

A negative output gap is an indicator of inefficient use of resources.

A similar trend is projected in FY 2017 I 18 assuming Real GDP growth remains within the bound of 5% as envisaged at the beginning of the financial year (Table 11 and Figure 1).

66.
66.

However, the trend is projected to reverse to a positive output gap in the next two fiscal years.

This is on assumption that the projected economic growth rates remain within the levels of 5.5% and 6%o for FY 2ol8l19 {nd 2Ol9 l20 respectively.

This trend is an indication of a scenario where aftual productivity with exceed the efficient economic level of production.

Hence there is a possibility of the economy overheating and a likely inflationary situation.

Following the Ministry's proposed policy on enhancing salaries of science teachers in secondary schools, Parliament disagreed with this policy as it would create disparities among the teachers, demotivate the Arts teachers and also found it unconstitutional as per Article 40(18) "Parliament uitl enact lanas to ensure equal pagment for equal utork uithout discrimination".
Therefore, in order to avoid these disparities and unconstitutionalism, Parliament adopted the following recommendations as per the Committee of Education and Sports; from the allocation of UShs 98,51410471919 that was meant for the increment; The Committee Recommends as follows: i) haenrmcnt halts the dlscrlmlnatory so,lo;ry increment for the science teachers ln and adopts the follouting changes ln FY2O78/7e; ii, ushs 78rooo'ooo,ooo should be used to recntlt 2rooo science teachers ln order to reduce on the shoraage of scrence teachers and.

23 TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER AND APPLICATION 69.

The committee obsenzed that there has been huge expenditures on technologr, science and innovation but without tangible benefits.

The technologr and innovations have not been translated into realizable results.
The committee recommends that since there is no legal framework for the innovation funds, Ushs.

10 billion is provided for establishment of technologr transfer and application project.

The Ministry should use existing institutions like Uganda industrial research institute.

The primary focus should be on importing technologies and recruiting experts in the division so that there is technologr multiplication through research so that this can be translated into realizable results.
The committee recommends thqt tlsh 70 bn be reallocated, from the Innouation fund technologg transfer and appllcatron proJect OPERATION WEALTH CREATION AND NAADS 70.

The Committee noted with concern that OWC and NAADS relationship has not been explained to the general public for them to appreciate the different roles of the two entities.

The committee was noted that the Bulk of the NAADS funds are channeled to OWC in form of agriculture inputs and Operations.
Whereas the NAADS Secretariat handles all procurements, the responsibility of monitoring the inputs and activities is left to the OWC team at the expense of agriculture extension staff.

Some of the OWC personnel lack the knowledge and skitls to offer technical support to the farmers.

This has led to a mismatch between what farmers need in terms of inputs and what actually is supplied in their areas.

The country has lost colossal sums of money in the process.

The committee recommends tho;t owc and.

COFFEE PRODUCTION ROADMAP 71.

The committee was informed that in April 2OI7 HE the President launched the coffee Roadmap comprising of 9 key transformative initiatives to achieve t!l,e 20 million bags target.
The 9 initiatives are: i) Building structured demand ii) Brand Ugandan coffee iii) Support local value addition iv) strengthen farmer organizations Coffee S /-, 24 t) ( { and producer cooperatives v) support joint ventures vi) promote concessions for large scale coffee production vii) improve the quality of planting materials through strengthening coffee research viii) improve access to quality inputs and ix) develop a coffee finance program with the central bank and treasury.
72.1t is hoped that with this road ffiop, the coffee sector is line with the Government Budget Stratery of attaining a lower middle income status by 2O2O.

This will be achieved by increasing coffee production and productivity which requires financial support in the areas identifies by the UCDA including rising of coffee seedlings, water for production, coffee rehabilitation, pest and disease management, and strengthening farmer organizations.
Some of these areas have been underfunded due to the limited resource envelope.

The commlttee recommends thqt the Mtntstry of ?lnance, Plannlng and Economlc Deaelopment should ensure thaI the most crttlco,l acthtltles o, the Coffee Roadmr;p are fl,nanced in the Medlum tenn so that coffee production ts reaamlred.

The Committee was informed that the Service Coverage Acceleration Project (SCAP 100) which is a project financed by NWSC together with the Government, aimed at providing safe water to lOOo/o of the population targeting all villages under NWSC jurisdiction (at least 12,000 villages) started in July 2017.
The project is being implemented over a period of three years (2OI7-2O2O) at a cost of UGX 213bn out of which Government committed to contribute UGX 90Bn (UGX 30 bn per annum) and NWSC Contributes UGX 123 bn (an average of UGX 4lBn per annum).

The commlttee supports this proJect slnce tt hcs a natlonal couerage and recommend.s that an addltlonal 75.9 billton ols PorA of be proulded this FY 2078/79 AUTHORITY OF ,.
25 v I 74.T}:,e committee was informed that the funding requirement for pAU for the Financial Year 2Ol8l19 is UGX 89.38 billion, however; only UGX 20 billion has been allocated leaving a budget shortfall of UGX 69.38.
Some of the activities not funded due to the shortfall include recruitment of additional 94 staff for effective implementation of PAU work plan, investment in IT infrastructure by setting up a data center and to acquire IT systems for effective management of petroleum data, regulation and monitoring operations of licensed oil companies.
The benefits that will arise if the funding is provided include; i) Business opportunities of USD 5.4 billion to local suppliers, ii) Employment of Ugandans,iii) increased government take from oil the oil and gas sector and i.r) Support to the collection of Government revenue from the sector.

On the hand, failure to increase funding may curtail the PAU from monitoring the activities of the oil companies.
The likely impacts of this include; i) Potential social and environmental risk, ii) Metering risks, iii) High Export Pipeline Tariff, iv) An unacceptable refinery designs, v) Inadequate reservoir management, vi) Inadequate capaciff to determine the potential of petroleum basins , vii) lack of one stop data centre and limited Nationar content.

The committee recommends that given the importance attached to the oil and gas sector in the realization of the country's long term development objective enshrined in the Vision 2Ol4O and achieving the lower middle income status as envisaged in the NDP II, adequate funding should be provided to this Authority.

Thc committee noted that the Economy slowed down with low economic growth performance registered for the last three years of NDPII implementation with an outturn of 4.8 percent and 4.0 percent in FY 2OI5l16 and 2016117, respectively and is projected to grow at 5.5 percent in FY20l7 I 18 against the NDPII targeted growth rates were 5.8 percent, 5.9 percent and 6.6 percent for the periods.
It is unlikely that Country will achieve lower middle-income status in the remaining 2 years of NDPII implementation The Committee recommends that the country should remain focuspd on the middle-income agenda by pragmatically and prudently implem(ntlng the prioritized intenrentions in the Vision 2O4O and its attendant pl4ns.

Domestic Revenue 77.


T}:e committee noted that mobilization of domestic revenue will witness an increase from UGX15.187tri11ion in FY2O|7 l18 to UGX l6.4lltrillion in Ol8l19 equivalent to revenue to GDP ratio of 14.3o/o however this will below the Sub Saharan average of 160/o.
This low domestic revenqe as a ratio to GDP is largely contributed to the structure of the economy with a large informal sector The Committee recommends that government expedites the development of strategy for domestic revenue mobilization which can enhance rqvenue performance over the medium term.

In addition, government from the large establish new measures aimed at sector.

The Uganda Free Zones Authority was established in 2OI4.
The policy direction to the development of free zones in Uganda is premised on the need to cater for the earnings, increase industrialisation and create employment opportunities to cater for the country's growing population.

97.
97.

Government is required to pay a total of USD20O,O00 equivalent to about UGX 740,000,000 per year to the APRM Trust Fund.

However, due to budget constraints occasioned by failure to get extra resources, the Authority has not been able to pay this obligation for 2018.

Therefore, a payment of UGX 74O,OOO,000 Million is required to meet the subscription requirement for FY2018l 19.

98.

Government should prioritise payment of fees to international organisations where they have commitments.
Failure to fulfil our international obligations affects the image of the country.

Funds should be provided to NPA to the tune of UGX 74OI0tr to cater for the subscription of APRM Trust Fund AGRICULTURE, ANIMAL INDUSTRY AND FISHERIES Agricultural Extension Ulorkers 99.

The Committee noted that there is inadequate Agricultural Extension services across the country mainly attributed to the low extension to farmer ratio of 1:1800 yet the recommended ratio is 1:500.
This has undermined the role of extension services in Agriculture leading to poor/ low yields and hence making Agriculture less productive.

Besides the recruited extension have not been well facilitated to enable them perform their roles effectively.

The Committee recommends that Government allocates more funds amounting to UGX 25.75 billion to support recruitment and faciiitatlon of extension workers in FY 207.8119 for effective extension senrice deliVery.

Coffee Development 100.


The Committee noted that Coffee is one of the major cash cropS and exports of the country and contributes a lot to the country's GDP.

For example coffee exports increased from 3.6 million (60 kg) bags in FY 2015116 valued at USD 352million to 4.2 million (60 kg) bags in FY 2016l17 valued at USD 478mi11ion.

Besides, the Ministry has a target of exporting 20 million bags of coffee per year by 2025.

1O1.
1O1.

However, the coffee sub-sector still remains underfunded which will not enable Uganda Coffee Development Authority to achieve its target.

Committee H President gave a directive to gi 33 ( coffee seedlings to farmers above the budgetary allocation.

Many nursery operators who supplied the seedlings have not been paid and the money has accumulated to UGX 57bn.
The Committee recommends that Ministry of Finance, planning and Economic Development provides UGX 3O bn out of the UGX S?zbn due to the coffee sub-sector to enable it pay the outstanding arrears to nursery operators and achieve its target of exporting 2O million bags of coffee per year by 20.25 and contribute to the country's econony.

EDUCATION AND SPORTS SECTOR Salary Disparities at Universities 102.
The Committee noted that while government increased salary for University lectures in FY 20161 17, the Salary structure at public Universities were yet to be fully harmonized.

Some Universities still rely on part time lecturers whom they pay at their own rates.
The Committee observes that the public Universities' total wage enhancement for both teaching and non-teaching staff was UGX 78.5bn in Fy2O lT l lg, however, only UGX 19bn was allocated leaving a shortfall of UGX 59.5bn.In FY20l8ll9 UGX 33bn has been allocated leaving a shortfall of UGX 45.Sbn.This totals to a short fall of UGX 105bn in public Universities, salaries, if not adequately handled this could bring about unrest at the Universities.
The Committee recommends that the MoES together with MFPED should harmonize the salaty structure in all public Universities and halt the creation of new Universities until funds are got for full payment of the University staff salaries.

MFPED should ensure that funds are sourced to provide for UGX lo5bn shortfall in the salaries of pubtic Universities to avert unrest at the Universities.
Government should ensure fulfillment of the commitment and the University staff are argued to continue with the dialogue as resources are being mobilized subsequently.

Funds inspection function at M \ffi p 34 LL ( ---/// inistry .t 103.

The Committee observed that the funding of this function has always been undermined by under budgeting and many times cuts in actual budget releases.

An analysis of the budget proposal for FY 2ol8ll9 for the Inspectorate function reveals a greatly underfunded priority.
104.

In our early report to this House on the state of Private Secondary schools in the country, we indicated that there were few inspectors, with poor facilitation and lack of transport (motorcycles or vehicles) to carry out their work.
The Commlttee recommends that a total of UGX7.3bn be relnstqted a.s nonuage recutrent for the lnspectorate functlon and UGX O.9bn be prould,ed to procure addltlonal motorcgcles for lnspectors' transporA, The commlttee also recomm.end.s thqt UGX inspectlon at the Mintstry Headquarters.

The Committee observes that the budget for UPE and USE examinations had remained the same over the last three years notwithstanding the increase in student enrollment over the period.

Conducting National examinations is such a huge and fundamental undertaking which requires adequate funding to avoid any leakages and compromising of the education quality.

UNEB exams are key in ensuring the sanctity of our cherished academic standards at both local and international levels.

Besides, the universiqr's general physical infrastructure including lecture rooms, roads and Sewage Systems are outdated and dilapidated beyond repair and needs reconstruction.

118.

The committee recommends that the universit5r be provided with an additional UGX.15 billion to work on critical infrastructure and replace the dilapidated sewerage system.
In addition, 5.0 billion should be provided to enable the university recruit critical staff which would only bring it to a 50% staffing level.

VOTE 149: GULU UNMRSITY 119.

Rehabilitation of the Tororo-Gulu railway line I42.

As part of the undertakings to improve the MetreGuage Railway, URC plans to rehabilitate the 500km railway track between Tororo and Gulu to harness the immense socio-economic potential of Northern and Eastern regions of Uganda.

This will involve fitting the upgraded railway track with stone ballast to replace the initial murrum.

This project requires Euros 32m of which Euros 23.5m will be sought from the EU.
The Committee recognizes this as a prudent undertaking to ease the movement of people and goods and spur the socio-economic re-invigoration of the Northern and Eastern parts of the country.
The Commlttee recomfitends that Gorrerrtment expedites the process of sourclng tor fundtng for the rehabllttatton of the Tororo-Gttlu ralluag llne qnd the allocation of the requlslte counterpart fundtng of Euros 73m" UGANDA ROAD FUND The cost of maintaining unpaved roads versus the use sealing technology &\v&-' 3.The committee observed that in FY 2ol8l19 UGX 255 has been allocated for maintenance of the DUCAR network for both paved and from UGX 138 unpaved roads which is an increase of UGX 116 of low cost l 45 1'// billion approved in FY 2017118.
The committee was however, concerned that every year billions of Uganda Shillings are washed away by the rains under the maintenance of unpaved roads.

Moreover, for some terrains, when the rains come, the roads are completely washed away.

In Fy 2OI8119, the maintenance budget for Community access roads alone is proposed to increase to UGX 20 billion from 7.8 billion in Fy 2OlT llg.

The committee recommends that the addttlonal funds for malntenance of unpaued.

Inadequate financing of the Uganda Road Fund l44.Uganda Road Fund (URF) was established in 20O8 with the objective of improving routine and periodic maintenance of public roads through devoting steady and reliable funding for mainly from road user charges as provided by section 2l (3) of the Road Fund Act, 200g.

However, the aforementioned sections of the law are not adhered to citing Section 14 of the Uganda Revenue Authority Act and the first schedule there-to.

145.
145.

As such Uganda Road Fund is starved of resources and yet if the Uganda Road Fund Act had been fully implemented, there would be surplus funds as the Petroleum Duty alone would raise over I trillion which has been the trend since FY 2014/15, and UGX l,609.6 billion was realized from that duty in FY 2016l17.
146' The Committee notes that in a bid to enhance the budget allocation for the road fund by at least UGX 2OObn in the FY 20l8llg, the proposal to levy an additional 1o0 l- on every liter of fuel has been made.

The committee therefore recommends that tlganda Road, tr1tnd ls qvalled, the UGX 72obn.
UGANADA NATIONAL ROAD AUTHORITY The cost of compensation and inherent challenges l47.The committee observed that most recurring reason for proj delayed acquisition of right of way due to challenges in con ect delays is cluding land property compensation.
The committee notes that while the power to pulsorily acquire Land by Government is enshrined in the 6) vq\r 46 t Acquisition Act, 1965 and Article 26 of the 1995 Constitution, compensation remains riddled with numerous challenges notably cost, institutional weaknesses in the Off,rce of the Chief Government Valuer, titigation and contestation.

The end result transcends project delays to the inflation of project costs.

148.
148.

In addition, the Committee notes inherent challenges in valuation due to institutional weaknesses in the Office of the Chief Government Valuer which include understaffing and under-resourcing- a matter that has been extensively handled in the segment of this report that deals with the MoLHUD.
The Committee recommend.s tho;t haernment ensures thqt the comlrensatlon processes are adequatelg planed., budgeted .for and financed, ln timc to ensure tlmelg acqulsltlon of the right of uag to torestall ang attendant delags ln proJect implementatlon.

Road infrastructural designs 149.


The Committee notes that the nature of road infrastructure is a replica of their designs and hence the design function in the roads sector shoUld be responsive to the national aspirations of the kind of roads the country wants.

The Committee notes that many of the major roads are devoid of sanitary facilities which ordinarily should be catered for in the designs.

In addition, the cost of designing roads has been high because most of it is outsourced.
The committee further notes the correlation between the efficacy of designs and cost of construction.

Where designs are not done well and professionally, there is a high likelihood of future variations in both design and project costs leading to hemorrhage of public resources and delays in project completion.

The committee recomfitends thqt UNRA thelr capacitg to deaelop excellent minimlze on uariation of price qnd.

The Committee was informed that most of the supplementary requests in the FY 2017 I 18 are a result of directives to acquire land for government use.

There is need to engender predictability and planning in the functioning of the ULC.

The Committee was informed that Government's acquisition of land for the Amuru Sugar Project in return for 51%o shareholding in Amuru Sugar works- a private company belonging to Madhvani, has a funding gap of UGX.

9.9billion.

The said funds are required for the compensation of additional land owners who had initially rejected the surveying and demarcation of their land.

The commlttee recommends thqt qn qddlttonal 9.9bn be allocated.

for this purpose.

The Commlttee recommends that UGX 6.00 blllion should be qnlled tor the smooth lmplementatlon of the Yumbe Kagunga huerttment proJects.

National Ambulance Senzice System 154.

The Committee noted that Injury and medical emergencies are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Uganda.

The burden has cost the country enormously both in terms of human life and resources.
Currently, pre-hospital care is given on an ad hoc basis, by fragmented providers namely the Police and community by-standers near crash scenes in case of road traffic crashes.

155.

To avert the above situation Government, in 2014, through the Ministry of Health tried to establish the Uganda National Ambulance Service (UNAS) to address the need for emergency pre-hospital care in Uganda.
The main goal of UNAS is to provide prompt quality Pre-hospital care for the acutely ill and injured and support the population's emergency healthcare by utilizing effective principles and practices of patient care while maintaining the dignity of those served.

However, whereas this type of service very critical in health service delivery, no funding for this activity was provided in the budget for FY 20181 19.
The committee recommends thqt UGX 67.O7billton (USD 18.64A be qaalled tor the esta.blishment of the National Ambulance Senld,ce Sgstem mandated to offer Pre-hospltal care and Emcrgencg serrtice ln Ugand,a.

The Committee was informed that Kawempe will be connected to the main sewer line in the next Financial Year whereas there is need to construct a lagoon for Kiruddu hospital because it does not have a sewer line.

The cost for the above interventions is UGX.

MINISTRY OF'DEFENCE AND VETERANS AFFAIRS Shortfall in Food and Clothing: 164.

The Committee observed that the key items that persistently lead to supplementary requests in the Ministry of Defense budget are food, fuel, medical and clothing for the military.

Continuous Under funding to these items has led to the vicious cycle of domestic arrears since the Army has to feed and dress.
The Ministry requires additional UGX.75.86Bn to adequately feed and dress the Military and the Committee believes these items are critical to their welfare.

The Commlttee recommends tho;t Gpluentment allocates addltlonal UGX.SOOBn prouided in the corrigenda shou qnd clothing of the Mllttary.

The Committee appreciates government effort to reduce domestic arrears as reflected in the increased budget allocation to arrears from the approved UGX.l8Bn to the proposed UGX.36.6Bn in FY 2018/19.

The Committee also noted that during FY 2Ol7 ll8, government provided UGX.16.5Bn as supplementary funding to partly settle land compensation claims.

This is however a drop in the ocean compared to the current UGX.222.9 bn in domestic arrears.
The Committee recommends the use part of the addltlonal funds ln the corrigenda to offset part of the domestlc anreo;rs especlallg tor utilltles.

In the meantime a hollstic approach to clear the arrears should be establlshed.

The current stoclc of domestlc o;rreo;rs should be consolldated and recognized q,s part of publtc debt and cleqred under treasury operations becquse theg are crippltng the economg espeaid,llg for the priuate sector.

The Committee observed that currently 4,000 recruits are undergoing training and they are expected to access the wage bill in August 2Ol8; however, their wage worth UGX.24.1Bn has not been provided in the current budget proposals yet wage is statutory.
The Committee recomntend.s that MOD prtorttlzes uages in the addltlonal funds prouided to cater tor uages of the neut recrttlts.

The committee was informed that the ministry continues to face mounting pressure from claimants for compensation.
Whereas the Committee appreciates the allocation afid the funding Baps, it explores the Ministry to ration alize the allocation iof the compensation so that long standing claimants are given first priority.

The allocation should also take into consideration regional spread so that not only few claimants are paid.

MINISTRY OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS Operationalization of NGO Act, 2O16 168.

Parliament enacted the NGO Act,2016 which establishes the NGO Bureau among others.

The Committee observed that the NGO Sector is dynamic and has been operating without a firm regulatory framework.

The level of transparency and accountability is not upheld as envisioned by the Act.

Currently, the number of NGOs is estimated to be 12,400.

This requires oversight and enforcement.


The Committee further noted that NGOs receive funding directly from external financiers which require monitoring and supervision to avoid possible security and macroeconomic risks as well as duplication of services.

The NGO bureau requires UGX.S.Bn to enable it carry out its critical activities.
The Commifree upholds the sectoral commtttee recomfitendation that UGX 2Bn should be req.llocated from Vote 3O9 and Vote 72O tn fannr of the IIGO Bureau @s a stara-up to enoble the MO Bureau carryout crltical actlaitles next FY 2018/19.

The Committee observed that H. E the President extended the life of Amnesty Commission to carryout unfinished pending works before the expiry of its term.

The Committee further observed that due to financial constraints, the Commission could not Demobilize, Resettle and Re- integrate the Reporters.

Although H.E the President gave the Commission an extension, it is not matched with the requisite funding.
The Committee was informed that out of 27,5OO reporters demobilized; only 8,875 reporters have been re-integrated.

There is need to provide resettlement and socio-economic re-integration support to the remaining 18,625 ex- combatants.

UGX 4.5Bn is required to implement the above activity in the FY 2018119.
The Commlttee therefore upholds the sectoral commlttee recommend.atlon that based on the extension of the term of ofJice bg H.E the Presldent, UGX 4Bn should be reallocated from Vote 3O9 and 72O for Resettlement and.

VOTE L44z UGANDA POLICE FORCE Inadequate Accommodation l74.The Committee observed that the demand for Police services in newly created Districts and Sub-counties has overstretched Police's capacity.

These demands require that accommodation for both office and Officers is secured including other attendant facilities which are costly.
Currently, Uganda Police is renting over 302 offices and staff houses at a total of UGX 5.1bn; yet only ucx 4.5bn has been earmarked for this purpose next FY 2Ol8l19 leaving a funding gap of UGX O.6bn.

VOTE l24z EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES Inadequate Staffing 181.

The Committee observed that Ministry of Public Service (MOPS) has approved a new staffing structure for the Equal Opportunities Commission.

Currently there is a gap of 30 staff and a wage bill shortfall of UGX.1.7bi11ion.
The Committee further observed that delayed recruitment of staff will hinder the ro11 out plan of ensuring compliance to equal opportunities and affirmative action in both state and non-state institutions and consequently make limited contribution to sustainable inclusive growth and development.

The Committee recommends thqt MoFPED prouides UGX.

MINISTRY OF EAST AFRICAN COMMUNITY AFFAIRS Inadequate Nlocations for Headquarter Operations 182.

The Committee observes that out of the total budget allocation of UGX.28.242bn, UGX.18.39bn 165%l is for Contributions to EAC 59 r S y'' and Institutions, ucx 1.14Bn g%) is for wage and UGX 0.53 Bn (2%l is for development.

This leaves a balance of UGX.8.37bn as non-wage for core activities at the headquarters.
Of this balance, only 6.9%o (UGX 0.S8 Bn) is left for enhancing public awareness and public participation in EAC regional integration; 2.5Vo (UGX O.2lBn) for domesticating Regional Policies, Laws and Strategic Frameworks and 5%o ( UGX O.42 Bn) for providing Strategic leadership, Guidance and Support for EAC regional Integration.

The Committee notes that these allocations to the core functions of MEACA are inadequate and cannot make the desired impact.
The Committee further observes that Government's failure to allocate adequate funds to MEACA undermines the existence of the Ministry and will fail the purpose and spirit of EAC integration.

Arrears to EAC organs and Institutions, and former staff of EAC 183.The Committee notes that for the FY 2018119, no budget provision was made for settlement of arrears: gratuit5r arrears for former staff of the defunct East African Community [UGx.O.7O7bn]; and domestic arrears for EAC Contributions to the Inter-University Council for East Africa (IUCEA) [[UGX.10.9bn].The Committee observes that the arrears listed among MEACA's unfunded priorities could cause litigation to be brought against the Ministry.
The Committee further observes that Parliament's recommendation in its FY 2ol4l 15 Report on the Ministerial policy Statemdnt and Budget Estimates that "MEACA should set an annual schedule of payments to clear the arrears in a phased manner within the next three financial years", has not been considered.

The Committee recommends that for each financlal gear, begtnning Fy 2078/79, at leq.st UGX.3.9bn should.

The Committee observed that the revamp process is ongoing despite being constrained by inadequate funding.

By the end of Quarter 2 of FY 2Ol7 12018, only UGX 6.4 billion had been released out of UGX18 billion that was appropriated which has greatly affected the exercise.

The categories of cadres include Medical Workers, Scientists, Science Teachers, Police, Prisons and UPDF in lower ranks and External Security Organization (ESO), Judicial Officers and State Prosecutors, Local Government Political Leaders, Head Teachers and Deputies of Secondary Schools, Principals and Deputies of Vocational and Tertiary Institutions and Public Universities.

The Committee also learnt that the government was able to identify UGX568bn to cover the wage enhancement in FY 2Ot8lt9.

The Committee learnt that there is gross disparity and irregularity for payment of allowance and retainer fee to DSC in the Local Governments.

The pay for the DSCs comes from Local Government local revenue.

It was also found out that it is only the Chairperson DSC who is paid a retainer fee of 1.5m monthly from Consolidated Fund while other Members are paid as low as between UGX 10,000/: to UGX 100,000/= per sitting depending on the revenue of the LG.
The poor pay breeds corruption and inefficiency in the Local Government and affects the DSC's independence in doing their work.

The committee observed that 9S%budget funding of MTAC is generated from fees paid by students and other internal sources.

The centre has been receiving 50 million allocations as Government subvention for the last 3 years.

The committee further observes that the 3 laboratories under construction with a funding requirement of UGX 60 billion are urgently needed to mitigate the dangers of substandard goods.
The committee further observed that UNBS staffing level stan d at 49o/o of the total required with only 295 employees out of the required 64Ostaff.

Hence creating a need to recruit an extra 100 staff in the FY 20 l8l2Ol9.

Often artisanal and small-scale mining are faced with land ownership and land use conflicts.

Artisanal and Small scale mining has also been associated with child labour, school dropouts, occupational health and safety risks.
The Committee also noted that Artisan and small-scale miners use rudimentary and labour-intensive mining methods that involve dredging of underground tunnels and using mercury to recover fine gold from the crashed rock which poses health risks and environmental damage as a result of poor management practices.

, 78 VOTE OO6: MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFNRS CLASSIFICATION OF THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFNRS 223.The Committee observes that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is classified in the Public Administration Sector as a consumptive Ministry, yet it has a major role in mobilizing external resources and attracting foreign investors.
For example, in FY 2016l17 and FY 2017l18 Missions Abroad that were availed funds for economic and commercial diplomacy registered a number of key achievements that included, among others: the Mission in Germanymobilized US$48 million for construction on an inland Port at Bukasa on the shores of Lake Victoria; the Mission in Beijing secured a grant agreement of US$3O million for modernization of customs in Uganda Revenue Authority (URA); the Mission in London engaged UK Export Finance (UKEF) to provide a loan of 27O million Euros for the new airport in Kabaale, Hoima; the Mission in India secured an investor (UMC Victoria Hospital Company), whose construction of a 15-bed capacity hospital has commenced in Bukoto, Kampala; and the Missions in China coordinated the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between BIDCO industries and Wuhan Company on food processing in Uganda.

Some of the funding requirements are result of the expenditure on run away maids, under budgeting on wages and salaries and the introduction of 5o/o VAT which is being levied on every payment and purchase.

Also there are Presidential Visits and other VIP which affect the mission budgets and loss of poundage.

The embassy also needs funds for security equipment to secure the premises.
The commlttee recommend.s tlut an qddltlonal 3.9 be prould,ed to cater for rescue accommodatlon, purcltase of securltg equipment buglng of g uehlcles, for fuel and.
