The Constitution of Uganda provides for decentralized local governance and that power belongs to the people. This also means that each one of us in the district has a responsibility to plan, mobilize and participate in the development process of the district to improve the socio-economic well-being of our people especially the rural poor. The District Council is very pleased to release this Annual Work plans and Budget for FY 2013/14. I urge the stakeholders and more especially the Heads of Departments to implement the outputs/activities planned and budgeted for. We acknowledge the technical assistance offered by the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development through the Output Budgeting Tool and training workshops. To all our partners and stakeholders including the District Council, all local councils at various levels, the district Heads of Departments, the CSOs, the Private Sector particularly those supporting us through their, Corporate Social Responsibility, the Faith Based Organizations, the line ministries and the Hoima community we highly urge you to use this Annual Work plans as a guide for the delivery of services to the people of Hoima district and we hope you will find it very useful. I wish to thank all departments and individuals who contributed to putting the Hoima District Local Government Annual Work plans and Budget for FY 2012/2013 together. In particular, I thank the Planning Unit as the Secretariate of the Budget Desk. I sincerely hope that the Annual Work plans will be implemented to bring about development in the development of the district. I once again call upon all the people in Hoima district to embrace the strategies and key outputs stated in the DDP and annual work plans and apply them in the development and implementation of the district programmes and projects.

I wish to pledge that the district management will devote resources towards maintenance of the investments that have been planned for in this annual work plan.

Only 46% of the local revenues (excluding LLGs) was realized because LLGs collections have not been captured, Council had expected to collect 24 million from renting Rural Training Centre but this was not possible because Council donated the Centre to the Nursing School; collection of business license on telecommunication masts faced resistance from telecommunication firms as they considered it double taxation, collection of CESS from the tea growers was resisted by the growers through the Tea Association and the tobacco harvest was poor. 100% of Unconditional Grant Transfers was received while 95% of the Conditional Grant transfers was received because there was a shortfall on second quarter and fourth quarter releases; only 83% of other Government Transfers was realized because of shortfalls in Uganda Road Fund and FIEFOC and information on the value of medicines and medical supplies sent to the district directly by NMS was not availed. 72% of Local Development Grant was received because of non release of the development funds in Quarter 4. Only 28% of the donor funding was realized because donors like OVC, PACE who had promised support to the District did not release budget support but instead they supported activities in kind. Other donors like SSI still have their Fiscal Years running. Overall 89% of the budgeted total revenues had been received by the end of the FY 2012/2013. Planned Revenues for 2013/14 Resource Envelope for FY 2013/14 Total resource inflows in Financial Year 2013/14 will amount to Ushs. 21,224,445,000 representing an increase of Ushs. 1,458,000,000n mainly due to an increase in Conditional Grant transfers in Primary Teachers', Secondary Teachers' and Health Workers' salaries and the general salary enhancement of 4%. On the other hand there is a decrease on other government transfers because the district is not going to receive Luwero Rwenzori Development Programme (LRDP) and Farm Income Enhancement and Forestry Conservation Project (FIEFOC) funds. Locally raised revenue for the District Local, will amount to Ushs. 616 million which is projected to grow by 8.3% at the levels of FY 2012/13. This will contribute only 4.6% of the total budget of the district, there is also a drop by 45.3% in donor funding to Ushs. 242 million (1.1%) because donors have adopted project direct funding modality. However all in all the Central Government Grants have increased by 7.4% to Ushs. 20,003,000,000. Taking into account the total recurrent expenditure (wage and non wage) projected at Ushs. 17,408,668,000 which is 82.1% of the budget; the overall resources available for the development budget will amount to Ushs. 3,815,777,000 including donor funding of Ushs. 242,241,000 for which the District Local Government has no control, the resource envelope to meet the DDP objectives and interventions in FY 2013/14 amounts to Ushs. 3,573,536,000. Therefore, compared to the level of financing this FY 2012/13, there are less resources in the FY 2013/14 for the physical development projects accounting for only 16.9% this is further exacerbated by the fact that due to non release of development funds from the Central Government the district has carried forward many outstanding obligations which will have a first call on the resources thus forcing a scaling down on the projects to be implemented in FY 2013/14.

The District could not realize 100% of the budgeted funds due to constraints like tax apathy and resistance to payment of some taxes by the tax payers for local revenue (45%), and non release of Quarter 4 Development funds including LGMSD (73%) other government transfers (82%) and donor funding (28%). All the cumulative receipt were released to the departments leaving only a small balance of 66,866 un allocated, on the General Fund Account. The cumulative expenditure by departments was Ushs. 17,370,9710,000 leading to unspent balances of Ushs. 131, 379,000 for NAADS and Health Accounts. Whereas the NAADS funds (Ushs. 89,325,000) were released by the Ministry of Finance towards the end of Q4 and imported into the LGOBT as a release for Q4, it was received on the NAADS account in the first week of Q1 of FY 2013/14 when the district had already closed its books, hence considered as a release for FY 2013/14 and will be reflected as an unspent balance.
