Sources of revenue included; locally raised revenue, conditional government transfers, discretionary transfers, other government transfers, local development grant and donor funds. The best performing revenue sources were ; other Government transfers at 51%), Local Development Grant at 50%, discretionary Government transfers 48% , locally raised revenues at 46%, Conditional Government transfers at 42% and Donor funding at 22% . However, there was also no realization for some transfers like CAIIP from Ministry of Local Government, funds for BBW control expected from Ministry of Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries and Support to Cooperative expected from Ministry of Trade and Industry. The District also realized local revenue of shs. 482,714,000= out of Shs 1,045,836,000= representing 46% performance of the budgeted revenue. The low local revenue performance was a result of failure by some tenderers to observe tender terms and conditions. The district also realized 22% of revenue expected from donors. Only Shs 122,011,000= and shs 16,880,000/= was realized from Strengthening Decentralization for Sustainability (SDS) and Donor-foreign government respectively , while for HAIP and Uganda Coffee Development Authority and Mild May there was no communication made as the result of non release of funds. Disbursements and Departmental Expenditures Out of Shs 9,824,525,000= realized, Shs 9,509,196,000= had been disbursed to departments as sector funding leaving a balance of Shs 1,705,423,000= on the General Fund Collection Account and collection accounts for LLGs. However the OBT tool does not capture balances at lower local government (LLG) level therefore they appear as undisbursed funds yet they had already been disbursed to the recipient LLGs. A total of Shs.9,509,196,000= was disbursed to departments for sector funding, out of which Shs 7,803,773,000= was utilized resulting into an absorption rate of 42%% according to the budget. Overall expenditure by District Departments was Shs 7,803,773,000/=. The expenditure was mainly done on payment of staff salaries worth Shs 5,349,640,000/= representing 39% of the overall expenditure. The District also spent Shs 2,260,049,000/= out of Shs 2,991,048,000/= realized on non wage recurrent costs indicating an absorption rate of 39%.Expenditure was mainly done on logistical support to service delivery like fuel, stationery, facilitating Executives, Councils and committees at all levels. On development, the district spent shs. 125,224,000/= out of shs 1,070,870,000/= indicating an absorption rate of 13%, low absorption rate is due to the ongoing procurement process. The district had unspent balances of Shs 1,705,423,000/= for both recurrent and development revenue due to delays in the procurement process. Planned Revenues for 2015/16 The District Final performance contract for Financial Year 2015/2016 was prepared in line with the current financial management system introduced by Ministry of Finance Planning and Economic Development. The District expects a total of shs. 20,139,761,000/= of which local revenue and donor funding constitute only 5.2% & 2.8% respectively of the entire budget. As compared to FY 2014/2015, there has been a decline in revenue of Shs. 2,500,597,000/= Page 3 Local Government Workplan Vote: 540 Mpigi District Executive Summary representing 11% drop in revenue.

The decrease is as a result of the uncertainty of the donor funding to support execution of developmental activities. There has been a slight increase in local revenue due to revision of reserve prices for some local revenue sources; the district expects approximately the same revenue as it was planned in FY 2014/2015.

Vogt2,3, William Gombya-Ssembajjwe1, and Joseph Bahati1 1Faculty of Forestry and Nature Conservation, Makerere University, P.O. Box 7062, Kampala, UGANDA 2School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA), Bloomington, Indiana, 47405 USA 3Center for the Study of Institutions, Populations, and Environmental Change (CIPEC), Bloomington, Indiana, 47405 USA Send correspondence to: Abwoli Y. Banana (E-mail: [email protected]) April, 2004 Local Governance and Forest Conditions: The Case of Forests in Mpigi District of Uganda Introduction Uganda, with a total population of 26 million people has 4.9 million hectares of natural forests and woodlands, which cover 24% of the land area (MLWE 2002). In terms of land ownership, the government holds in trust for the citizens of Uganda only 30% of the forestland. This include 15% of the land managed by the newly established National Forest Authority as Central Government Forest reserves and 15% managed as National Parks by the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA). Local, private and customary forests make up 70% of all forests and woodlands in Uganda. Thoughts of decentralizing the Uganda forest sector to better provide for local needs are not new.
