Schedule 2 of the Act spell out the roles and responsibilities of the respective Local Governments under the decentralization policy. In line with Government's macroeconomic plan and fiscal strategy, the Local Government Budget Framework Paper outlines district interventions for social and economic development in FY 2014/2015 and the medium term. District macroeconomic policies and expenditure framework programmes are guided by the investment priorities of the National Development Plan and Ministerial policies and strategies. Therefore, the development budget proposals earmarked in this 2014/2015 Budget Framework Paper focus on the key priorities of; Increasing household incomes and promoting equity, Enhancing the availability of gainful employment, Enhancing Human capital, Improving livestock and quality of economic infrastructure, Promoting Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) and ICT to enhance competiveness, Increasing access to quality social services, Strengthening good governance, defence and security and Promoting a sustainable population and use of environment and natural resources in a bid to accelerate prosperity for all. The Budget is the key instrument through which District implements its policies while the Budget Framework Paper links between District's overall policy plans and the Annual Budget. This policy framework sets out how the District intends to achieve its policy objectives over the medium term through the budget and annual work plan. This policy framework indentifies preliminary revenue projections and expenditure allocation priorities. This sets out the basis for preparation of detailed estimates of revenue and expenditure to be presented to District Council in June 2014. In the medium term, the District will be committed to implement its policies and strategies towards achieving its Mission statement "To serve the Community through the coordinated delivery of services which focus on National and Local priorities and contribute to sustainable improvement of the quality of life of the people in the District". The mission of the district will be achieved based on the following priority interventions that aim at poverty reduction. The district priorities in the medium term will focus on following; Rehabilitation and maintenance of rural feeder roads and bridges, Provision of Primary Health Care minimum packages and other assorted services, Construction of VIP latrines, staff house and classroom blocks as well as supply of iron sheets at primary schools. Protection of springs, construction of rain water harvesting tanks and water jars, construction and rehabilitation of GFSs, construction of Ecosan toilets at RGCs and rehabilitation of non functional boreholes. Expand tax base, identify new sources and maximization of revenue collection. Enhance Human Resources Development through training, attachment and mentoring of LLGs. Protection of children and other marginalized section of the population. Conduct education on land and environmental management issues, Tourism development and enhancement of physical planning. Ensure cross-cutting issues of; HIV/AIDS, poverty, gender, human rights and environment are integrated into development planning and budgeting process. Use of environmental resources in sustainable manner and enhance agricultural advisory services through demonstration and quality farm inputs.

The district receives direct support from SDS, UNICEF, Global Fund and WHO while the rest provide indirect budget support towards implementation of district programs and interventions. I wish to thank all those who worked tirelessly in producing this policy framework, more especially the Heads of Departments and the Budget Desk in particular. On submission of this policy framework, I am appealing to all Development Partners, the District Council, Technical Staff, participating organization and well wishers for concerted effort and resources to make real what has been prepared as activities in this Local Government Budget Framework Paper 2014/2015. Finally, I wish to urge all the elected and appointed officials of Kabale District to use this policy framework as a guiding tool in preparation of 2014/2015 budget estimates of revenue and expenditure and annual work plan.

Low local revenue collection was due to failure to complete the sale of KMC plots as Court put an injunction. Others that performed less than 20% include Advertisement, Hotel Tax, land fees, rent KDA houses, royalties and sale of scrap. Other factors that affected local revenue performance include; quarantine on livestock movement, banana bacterial wilt, political interference on business licenses and weak tax enforcement structures at district and LLGs. All Central government grants performed apart from chairperson DSC salary that performed at 0%. Donor funding performed at 27.3% of the planned revenue. This poor performance was due to failure to receive funds under Wash-Plus during the financial year which had the highest budget. Overall, the district performed at 50.6% of the total district budget for the financial year 2013/2014. Planned Revenues for 2014/15 The district is anticipating to receive total revenue of 45,630,324,000 in 2014/2015 compared to 42,159,694,000 of financial year 2013/2014 reflecting a budget increase of 8.2%. This increased is a result of staff salary enhancement, increase in education capitation grants to primary, secondary and tertiary institutions. The district is anticipating to collect 1,555,958,000 from local revenue which forms 3.4% of the total budget reflecting a drop of 0.4% while 93.6% of the total budget from Central Government transfers under Conditional Transfers, Discretionary Government Transfers and Other Central Government Transfers. The district is anticipating a budget increase of Ug. Shs 3,470,630,000 compared to 2013/2014 financial year reflecting an increase of 8.2%. This increase is a result of staff salary enhancement, urban water grant and capitation grants for primary, secondary and tertiary education institutions. The district is forecasting to receive 3.0% of the total budget from Donor funding and reflecting a budget increase of 26.2% compared to last financial year. This increase was attributed by Donor support from UNICEF to support nutrition activities.

Washington, D.C. 20006 September 2002 Strategic Criteria for Rural Investments in Productivity (SCRIP) is a USAID-funded program in Uganda implemented by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in collaboration with Makerere University Faculty of Agriculture and Institute for Environment and Natural Resources. The key objective is to provide spatially-explicit strategic assessments of sustainable rural livelihood and land use options for Uganda, taking account of geographical and household factors such as asset endowments, human capacity, institutions, infrastructure, technology, markets & trade, and natural resources (ecosystem goods and services). It is the hope that this information will help improve the quality of policies and investment programs for the sustainable development of rural areas in Uganda. SCRIP builds in part on the IFPRI project Policies for Improved Land Management in Uganda (1999-2002). SCRIP started in March 2001 and is scheduled to run until 2006. The origin of SCRIP lies in a challenge that the USAID Uganda Mission set itself in designing a new strategic objective (SO) targeted at increasing rural incomes. The Expanded Sustainable Economic Opportunities for Rural Sector Growth strategic objective will be implemented over the period 2002-2007. This new SO is a combination of previously separate strategies and country programs on enhancing agricultural productivity, market and trade development, and improved environmental management.

  • Brief: Rwanda – DRC Cross Border Dynamics, April 2019
    Social Science in Humanitarian Action www.socialscienceinaction.org Brief: Rwanda – DRC cross border dynamics, April 2019 This brief summarises key considerations concerning cross-border dynamics between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in the context of the outbreak of Ebola in North Kivu and Ituri provinces. It is the second in a series of four briefs focusing on the at risk border areas between DRC and the four high priority neighbouring countries (including Uganda, South Sudan and Burundi).1 As of April 2019, there had been no case of Ebola imported from the DRC into Rwanda, although alerts had been triggered on the roads leading from North Kivu towards neighbouring Rwanda and at least one high-risk contact was described as being a Rwandan national. Cross-border movement has been identified as a significant risk to transmission. This brief provides details about cross-border relations, the political and economic dynamics likely to influence these, and specific areas and actors most at risk. The brief is based on a rapid review of existing published and grey literature, previous ethnographic research in Rwanda and DRC, and informal discussions with colleagues from the Rwanda Ministry of Health, UNHCR, UNICEF, WHO, DFID, IOM, USAID, CDC and others. The brief was developed by Hugh Lamarque (The University of Edinburgh’s Social and Political Science Department - Centre for African Studies) with support from Ingrid Gercama, Emelie Yonally and Juliet Bedford (Anthrologica). Additional review and inputs were provided by Patricia Stys (London School of Economics), Jean-Benoît Falisse (University of Edinburgh), Benjamin Chemouni (University of Cambridge), David Peyton (Northwestern University), Papy Muzuri (London School of Economics) and colleagues from DFID (Rwanda Country Office) and UNICEF (Rwanda Country Office and East and Southern Africa Regional Office).
