Computation: 30,317,020 x 100 = 42.2%

71,942,506

The relatively impressive performance in revenue collection was attributed to:

(i) Sensitisation of tax payers on the purpose of paying tax.

(ii) Effective monitoring and control of local revenue collections that was instituted by the district coupled with regular verification of revenue records in all the sub counties under the district.

It was noted that sub counties collected the local revenue on behalf of the district and remitted the 35% to the district head quarters as required by the law but retained 65% for each one of them.

Sec 85 of LGA (2) CAP 243 “In rural areas, revenue shallbe collected by the sub county councils, and a sub county council shall retain 65%, or any otherhigher percentage as the district council mayapprove, of the revenue collected by it and pass theremaining percentage over to the district”.

On the other hand, the DLG head quarters collected Local Service Tax and remitted the 65% component to all the sub counties.

Examples of the LST collected by the District and remitted (65%) to sub counties during FY 2018/2019:

(i) Katebwa sub county received shs 120,000 on voucher number 6/12 dated 13th December, 2018.

(ii) Shs 380,000 was remitted to Kibiito sub county on voucher number 7/12 dated 13th December, 2018.

(iii) Rwimi sub county received shs 250,000 as 65% remittance to the LLGs on LST as per voucher number 45/10 dated 24th October, 2018.

(iv) Shs 180,000 was remitted to Buheesi sub county on voucher number 42/10 dated 24th October, 2018 as the 65% component on the LST.

Amounts remitted to the District Head Quarters were verified and confirmed through the official district receipts acknowledging the 35% component of the local revenue from various sub counties.
