This BFP highlights the Annual workplan revenues and expenditure layout for the district for financial year in view. However, the expected key issues to address in 2019/2020 FY still include continued efforts of looking for alternative sources of revenue for the District; Reaching out more to the poverty pockets in the District; and implementation of planned activities, especially the roads and Education sector. Other issues to address include High cases of resistant malaria and HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B; Fight against the Rota virus plague; Increased numbers of orphans & vulnerable Children; High interest rates charged by Micro finance Institutions, which is an obstacle to progressive farmers; Low prices for farm products; disaster preparedness and the electricity power problem. The salient issue is to advocate for an increase of the unconditional grant to the District, which is insufficient to cater for salaries for traditional civil servants and departmental operational expenses; while among the top priorities is still the completion of construction of the District Administration Block [Lukhobo] and Lobbying for more funding. In addition, the NUSAF III project commenced financial year 2017/2018 and is to benefit the district with 4.53 billion Uganda Shillings for a period of 5 years.
