  • Lwengo District Local Government Statistical Abstract 2018-2019
    THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA LWENGO DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT STATISTICAL ABSTRACT 2018-2019 Figure 1 Lwengo District Local Government P.O Box 1330, Masaka Tel: +256-0772454754 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.lwengo.go.ug August 2019 ii | P a g e FOREWORD The importance of statistics in informing planning and monitoring of government programmes cannot be over emphasised. We need to know where we are, determine where we want to reach and also know whether we have reached there. The monitoring of socio-economic progress is not possible without measuring how we progress and establishing whether human, financial and other resources are being used efficiently. However, these statistics in many occasions have been National in outlook and less District specific. The development of a District-based Statistical Abstract shall go a long way to solve this gap and provide District tailored statistics and will reflect the peculiar nature of the District by looking at specific statistics which would not be possible to provide at a higher level. Data and statistics are required for designing, planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluating development programmes. For instance, statistics on school enrolment, completion rates and dropout rates etc. are vital in the monitoring of Universal Primary Education (UPE) and Universal Secondary Education (USE) programmes. Statistics are also needed for establishing grant aid to community schools, staff levels and other investments in the education programmes. The collection and use of statistics and performance indicators is critical for both the successful management and operation of the sectors, including Lower Local Governments. For data to inform planning and service delivery it should be effectively disseminated to the various users and stakeholders.

  • 2-2-4 Implementation Plan 2-2-4-1 Implementation Policy the Project
    2-2-4 Implementation Plan 2-2-4-1 Implementation Policy The Project will be implemented in accordance with Japan's Grant Aid scheme. Accordingly, its implementation will only take place after approval of the Project by the Government of Japan and the conclusion of Exchange of Notes (E/N) between both governments. Basic issues and points to be noted in the process of implementing the Project are described as follows. (1) Implementing Agency The implementing Agency of the Project on the Ugandan side is the Rural Electrification Agency (REA). After completing the installation work for the Project, the planning department at REA entrusts the relevant work to a private-sector company called operator(s) in a similar manner as other areas. It will, therefore, be necessary for REA to maintain close contact and consultation with Japanese consultants and contractors (equipment suppliers) and to appoint a person responsible for the Project to ensure its smooth progress. The appointed person responsible for the Project at REA will be required to fully explain the contents of the Project to other REA staff, concerned parties of districts, etc. and local residents at the project sites in order to facilitate their understanding of the Project and to encourage their cooperation in its implementation. (2) Consultant A Japanese consultant will conclude a consulting services agreement with REA and will provide a detail design and work supervision concerning the Project in order to implement procurement and installation of the equipment under the Project. The consultant will also prepare tender documents and open tender(s) for REA, the implementing agency of Project.
