# REPORT OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL

**ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF KALANGALA DISTRICT**

# LOCAL GOVERNMENT

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 TH JUNE 2019**

# THE RT. HON. SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT

# Opinion

I have audited the accompanying financial statements of Kalangala District Local Government, which comprise the Statement of Financial Position as at 30 th June 2019, the Statement of Financial Performance, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows, together with other accompanying statements for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In my opinion, the financial statements of Kalangala District Local Government for the year ended 30 th June 2019 are prepared, in all material respects, following section 51 of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2015 and the Local Government Financial and Accounting Manual (LGFAM), 2007.

**Basis for Opinion**  
I conducted my audit following the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions (ISSAIs). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of the District following the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda (1995) as amended, the National Audit Act, 2008, the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) Code of Ethics, the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of Financial Statements in Uganda. I have fulfilled my ethical responsibilities following the other requirements and the IESBA Code. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.

**Key Audit Matters**  
Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the financial statements as a whole, and when forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

I have determined the matters described below as the key audit matters to be communicated in my report:

**1.0**

# Implementation of Budget approved by Parliament

It has been observed over years that activities that are planned and budgeted for by Local Governments are either poorly implemented or not implemented at all, which affects service delivery, the improvement of the people’s wellbeing and the country’s ability to attain the National Development Plan (NDP) II goals. Also, there have been increased requests from Parliament, Local Leaders and the citizenry in general for special audits, all pointing to the ineffective implementation of various programmes. I, therefore, considered the risk that there may be challenges in budget and programme implementation.

It is against this background that budget implementation was considered as a key audit matter for the audit year. The focus was on the attainment of planned outputs,

---

which greatly affect the wellbeing of communities and have a bearing on the attainment of programme objectives.

Consequently, I developed specific audit procedures to;

- Establish the revenue performance for the year under review (extent of revenue collection, including local revenue).
- Ascertain the extent of absorption of released funds, including conditional grants and donor funds.
- Assess the extent of attainment of key planned outputs.

Based on the procedures performed, I made the following observations;

| **Issue/Observation** |<|<|<|<|<|<|<| **Recommendation** |

Paragraph 3.4.1(4) further requires realistic revenue forecasting as a precondition for successful budgeting. I reviewed the Statement of Appropriation account and noted that out of the budgeted total revenue of UGX.19,419,741,000, for the year 2018/2019, only UGX.15,247,976,182 was realized representing a performance of 79% of the target. The performance of each revenue source is summarised in the **table** below; |<|<|<|<|<|<|<|<|

| Section 15 (1) of the Public Finance and Management Act, 2015 states that after approval of the annual budget by Parliament, the Secretary to Treasury shall issue the annual cash flow plan of Government, based on the procurement plans, work plans and recruitment plans approved by Parliament. Section 15 (2) states that the annual cash flow plan issued under subsection (1) shall be the basis for release of funds by the Accountant General to the Accounting Officers. Further to this, section 15 (3) requires an Accounting Officer to commit the budget of a vote, based on the annual cash flow plan issued under this section. I noted that out of the total warrants of UGX.15,247,976,182, UGX.15,167,287,386 was absorbed by the entity representing an absorption level of 99.47% as shown in the **Table** below;  **Released Funds [A] Expenditure [B]** Unspent [A-B]** **Billion** **15.247** **Billion** **15.167** **Billion 0.08** implies that the entity nearly absorbed all the released funds.

A review of the statement of performance on page 31 of the financial statements and Education sector work plans revealed that most of the planned key outputs were implemented except for the construction of teacher’s house and latrines at Sserwanga Lwanga senior secondary school, Kibanga and Kachanga primary schools which were still work in progress at the end of the financial year as shown in **appendix 1.** I also noted that 14 youth groups’ projects were not supported.

The Accounting Officer explained that the partial implementations were a result of failure to receive all the planned funds from Iceland International Development Agency within the financial year.

# Other Information

The Accounting Officer is responsible for the Other Information. The Other Information comprises the statement of responsibilities of the Accounting Officer and the commentaries by the Head of Accounts and the Accounting Officer, and other supplementary information.

The Other Information does not include the financial statements and my auditors’ report thereon. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the Other Information and I do not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the Other Information and, in doing so, consider whether the Other Information is materially consistent with the financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; I am required to report that fact. I have nothing to report in this regard.

# Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Under Article 164 of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, 1995 (as amended) and Section 45 of the PFMA, 2015, the Accounting Officer is accountable to Parliament for the funds and resources of Mubende District Local Government.

The Accounting Officer is also responsible for the preparation of financial statements following the requirements of the LGFAM, 2007 and the PFMA, 2015 and for such internal control as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Accounting Officer is responsible for assessing the District’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting, unless the Accounting Officer has a realistic alternative to the contrary.

The Accounting Officer is responsible for overseeing the District’s financial reporting process.

# Auditor’s Responsibility

My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted following ISSAIs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken based on these financial statements.  
As part of an audit following ISSAI’s, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also:

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

---

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the District’s ability to deliver its mandate. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the District to fail to deliver its mandate.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

I communicate with the Accounting Officer regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit.

I also provide the Accounting Officer with a statement that I have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with him/her all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Accounting Officer, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

**Other Reporting Responsibilities**  
Following Section 19 (1) of the National Audit Act, 2008, I report to you, based on my work described on the audit of Financial Statements, that; except for the matters raised in compliance with legislation section below, and whose effect has been considered in forming my opinion on financial statements, the activities, financial transactions and information reflected in the financial statements that have come to my notice during the audit, are in all material respects, in compliance with the authorities which govern them.

# Report on the Audit of Compliance with Legislation

The material findings in respect of the compliance criteria for the applicable subject matters are as follows;

**2.0** Implementation of Uganda Inter-Governmental Fiscal Transfer Programme** The Uganda Intergovernmental Fiscal Transfers Program for Results (UgIFT) is a Government Program being implemented under the Ministries of Health and Education through the Districts and Municipal Councils. The program which started in the financial year 2018/19 was designed to address the financing gaps in service delivery specifically in the Health and Education Sectors.

---

The District budgeted to receive UGX.2,125,417,275 Central Government Grant for the construction of Kachanga Seed School in Bufumira Sub-county and there was no funding to upgrade the Health Centre II.

The audit objective was to establish whether; Project funds were budgeted, disbursed and utilized in the implementation of planned project activities.

**2.1**

# Delayed implementation of the Construction of Kachanga Seed School

The district awarded a contract to construct Kachanga Seed school to Mmacks Investment Ltd on 25 th May, 2019 at a contract sum of UGX.2,125,417,275. Audit evaluated the project and noted the following;

A documentation review revealed that the construction works at the seed school had not commenced although the contractor was advanced UGX.312,551,284 (15%) on 13 th of June 2019.

Delays in the commencement of the construction work negatively affect service delivery to the community.

The Accounting Officer explained that failure to commence the works on the Seed School was caused by delays in the procurement process, land acquisition and late receipt of funds.

I advised the Accounting Officer to ensure that funds released are utilized within the financial year for which it is released.

# 3.0 Uganda Road Fund

Uganda Road Fund (URF) is a Government of Uganda programme with an overall purpose of ensuring that all public roads are maintained at all times through the provision of adequate and stable financing for routine and periodic maintenance undertaken by designated agencies. Road maintenance is essential to: preserve the roads in their originally constructed condition; protect adjacent resources; provide reliable transport at reduced costs along the routes and contribute to economic welfare of the communities.

The objectives of my audit were to ascertain whether the budgeted amounts were fully released and spent in line with the intended purposes and assess whether the programme activities were implemented following the work plan and to the desired quality. The following was noted;

**3.1**

# Budget Performance of URF

Regulation 18 (3) of Local Government Financial Accounting and Regulations, 2007 states that the budget estimates shall be based on the objectives to be achieved for the financial year and during implementation efforts shall be made to achieve the agreed Objectives or targets, as the Programme of the Council.

I observed that the Council budgeted and received UGX.746,389,536 for maintenance of District, Urban and Community access roads as shown in **Appendix 2.**

---

**3.2 Unrepaired road equipment**  
I noted that some two road maintenance equipment with mechanical problems were not repaired although UGX.68,202,000 was received for Plant/Vehicle repairs during the year as shown below;

|||  
|---|---|  
| The Truck has been packed for the last 3 Years without being repaired | This Truck has been packed since 2018 but not repaired |  


![](assets_AuditReports%5CKalangala%20District%5CKalangala%20DLG%20Report%20of%20Auditor%20General%202019/img-0068.jpg)

![](assets_AuditReports%5CKalangala%20District%5CKalangala%20DLG%20Report%20of%20Auditor%20General%202019/img-0069.jpg)

Failure to maintain plants/vehicles affects implementation of planned road works and exposes the equipment to deterioration.

The Accounting Officer explained that a request for additional funds for the repairs was sent to URF.

I await the outcome of the Accounting Officer’s actions.

# 3.3 Status of Implementation

A review of planned outputs against actual performance and other underlying activities revealed the following anomalies:

# 3.1.1 Routine Mechanized Maintenance of Kibale - Kasekulo - Ttubi Road

Section 23 (1) of URF Act, 2008 as amended; requires each designated agency to prepare, annually, and at least three months before the start of each financial year, an Annual Road Maintenance Programme in such form and containing such details as may be prescribed by the Board.

During the year, the district budgeted and spent a sum of UGX.88,163,680 on routine mechanized maintenance of Kibale - Kasekulo - Ttubi Road of 10 Kms.

I observed that the section of the road indicated in the picture below required culverts for proper drainage; however, they were not installed.

---

![](assets_AuditReports%5CKalangala%20District%5CKalangala%20DLG%20Report%20of%20Auditor%20General%202019/img-0071.jpg)

The Road Section that required culverts to make it easily passable.

There is a risk that the condition of the road section may deteriorate making it completely inaccessible for the community.

Management explained that the road section is on the sinking low land, where the culvert line could not be installed as it cannot dissipate off the storm water. The section was scarified, formed, raised with additional imported earth, compacted and is currently passable. However, Kibaale-Kasekulo-Tubi road was included under Mechanized Routine Maintenance in the work plan of FY 2019/20 for further improvement.

I await the outcome of the accounting officer’s decisions.

**4.0**

# Implementation of the Youth Livelihood Program

The Youth Livelihood Programme (YLP) is a Government Programme implemented under the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development (MoGLSD), aimed at responding to the existing challenge of unemployment among the Youths.  
The programme provides support to the vulnerable youth in form of revolving funds for skills development projects and income generating activities initiated by youth groups.

The audit objective was to establish whether all funds budgeted for YLP during the period under review were released and used only for the program, outstanding advances to the youth groups were repaid following the agreed repayment schedule and to establish reasons for failure or delays to repay the funds.  
The following observations were made;

**4.1**

# Low recovery of YLP funds

Guideline 6.0 of the Ministry of Gender Youth Livelihood programme document (2013) requires Youth Grants under YLP to be administered as Interest-free revolving Funds to ensure the sustainability of the Programme. The grace period and repayment period will depend on the nature of the enterprise. Any repayment that goes beyond one year will attract a Service fee of 5% to cater for inflation. Overall, the Principal and Service fee will be paid within a period not exceeding 3 years.

A review of payment schedules revealed that only UGX.129,590,500 out of UGX.631,253,500 disbursed to the youth groups for the financial year 2014/15 to 2016/17 has been recovered resulting to an outstanding balance of UGX.504,395,250.

Failure to repay timely denies other eligible groups’ access to the funds.

---

The Accounting Officer explained that the default rate has not allowed Council to account for interest since groups are under-performing.

I advised the Accounting Officer to initiate measures to recover all outstanding funds.

**4.2**

# Performance of YLP Groups

Physical inspection was carried out on six selected youth projects; that were funded in FY 2014/2015, to ascertain whether they were being implemented in accordance with the operational guidelines. I made the following observations;

| **S/N** | **Name of group** | **Audit Observation** |<| **Managements explanation** |

In view of the various challenges observed above, there is risk of failure to recover all the funds that were disbursed to the groups.

The Accounting Officer explained that strategies have been devised to mitigate the challenges of non-recovery. The strategies are;

a) Use of National Identification Numbers (NIN) for registering and tracking of group members on subsequent disbursements.  
b) Liaise with Stanbic Bank and code all projects to enable the youth banking recoveries to use project codes to eliminate un-explained deposits.

I advised the Accounting Officer to initiate measures to recover all the outstanding funds.
