Total Revenues shares 24,289,174 5,881,062 24 % Cumulative Performance for Locally Raised Revenues By 30th September 2017, the district had only collected a total of 73,524,133/= out of the planned 299,257,000/= for the quarter. the district did not collect any revenues from registration of business, ground rent, business license, Park fees and market/gate charges. some of these fees like market/gate charges were paid to Rakai District (mother district)just before the start of Kyotera, a newly created district hence the deviations in receipt performance. Application fees and land fees received were more than what was planned hence the over performance in that area Cumulative Performance for Central Government Transfers N/A Cumulative Performance for Other Government Transfers The district only received 107,031,661/= of the planned 178,034,421/= during the quarter and this was only 60.1%. this was because the district did not get any revenues under support to PLE (UNEB),Youth Livelihood program and Uganda Women Entrepreneurship program hence the deviations in receipt performance against the approved budget. Cumulative Performance for Donor Funding The District had planned to get 58,000,000/= from Donors during the quarter but by end of quarter 1, the district had realized nothing from Donors. this was mainly because most of them were still operating accounts under Rakai District, the mother district though implementing activities in Kyotera District. 4 Local Government Quarterly Performance Report FY 2017/18 Vote:621 Kyotera District Quarter1 Expenditure Performance by Sector and Programme Uganda Shillings Thousands &XPXODWLYH([SHQGLWXUH 4XDUWHUO\([SHQGLWXUH 3HUIRUPDQFH 3HUIRUPDQFH Approved Cumulative % Budget Plan for Quarter %Quarter Budget Expenditure Spent the outturn Plan quarter Sector: Agriculture District Production Services 358,659 20,279 6 % 77,807 20,279 26 % District Commercial Services 13,788 1,451 11 % 1,451 1,451 100 % Sub- Total 372,447 21,730 6 % 79,258 21,730 27 % Sector: Works and Transport District, Urban and Community Access Roads 1,427,116 117,290 8 % 117,290 117,290 100 % District Engineering Services 56,000 0 0 % 0 0 0 % Sub- Total 1,483,116 117,290 8 % 117,290 117,290 100 % Sector: Education Pre-Primary and Primary Education 658,222 181,919 28 % 181,919 181,919 100 % Secondary Education 1,744,783 573,295 33 % 573,295 573,295 100 % Skills Development 216,931 0 0 % 0 0 0 % Education & Sports Management and Inspection 10,381,622 13,205 0 % 2,549,846 13,205 1 % Special Needs Education 5,000 0 0 % 0 0 0 % Sub- Total 13,006,558 768,420 6 % 3,305,060 768,420 23 % Sector: Health Primary Healthcare 343,416 53,125 15 % 53,125 53,125 100 % District Hospital Services 433,688 0 0 % 0 0 0 % Health Management and Supervision 3,612,983 0 0 % 896,599 0 0 % Sub- Total 4,390,086 53,125 1 % 949,724 53,125 6 % Sector: Water and Environment Rural Water Supply and Sanitation 581,527 38,785 7 % 43,423 38,785 89 % Natural Resources Management 58,744 10,692 18 % 10,692 10,692 100 % Sub- Total 640,272 49,478 8 % 54,116 49,478 91 % Sector: Social Development Community Mobilisation and Empowerment 802,123 21,113 3 % 21,114 21,113 100 % Sub- Total 802,123 21,113 3 % 21,114 21,113 100 % Sector: Public Sector Management District and Urban Administration 2,684,370 138,461 5 % 161,165 138,461 86 % Local Statutory Bodies 436,197 28,672 7 % 28,672 28,672 100 % Local Government Planning Services 291,123 7,305 3 % 7,305 7,305 100 % Sub- Total 3,411,690 174,438 5 % 197,142 174,438 88 % Sector: Accountability Financial Management and Accountability(LG) 127,524 44,876 35 % 44,876 44,876 100 % Internal Audit Services 55,359 9,340 17 % 9,340 9,340 100 % 5 Local Government Quarterly Performance Report FY 2017/18 Vote:621 Kyotera District Quarter1 Sub- Total 182,883 54,215 30 % 54,215 54,215 100 % Grand Total 24,289,174 1,259,808 5 % 4,777,919 1,259,808 26 % 6 Local Government Quarterly Performance Report FY 2017/18 Vote:621 Kyotera District Quarter1 SECTION B : Workplan Summary Administration B1: Overview of Workplan Revenues and Expenditures by source Ushs Thousands Approved Cumulative % Budget Plan for the Quarter %Quarter Budget Outturn Spent quarter outturn Plan A: Breakdown of Workplan Revenues Recurrent Revenues 1,574,686 152,572 10% 393,673 152,572 39% District Unconditional 80,921 25,310 31% 20,230 25,310 125% Grant (Non-Wage) District Unconditional 60,909 2,805 5% 15,227 2,805 18% Grant (Wage) Gratuity for Local 147,939 36,985 25% 36,985 36,985 100% Governments Locally Raised Revenues 128,302 0 0% 32,076 0 0% Multi-Sectoral Transfers to 1,078,615 67,972 6% 269,655 67,972 25% LLGs_NonWage Pension for Local 48,000 12,000 25% 12,000 12,000 100% Governments Urban Unconditional
