The poor performance noted under other Government Grant was due to None Release of NUSAF II Grant for quarter 4 by office of the Prime Minister reason for not releasing may best be explained by OPM. Donor funds on the other hand performed at only 27.3% were due to low release of Donor fund who fund their activities using different budget cycles which does not match with Government release cycle i.e UNICEF , WHO, Globle Fund etcL which releases their support base on their funding cycle which is diffenrance from Central Government Quarterly release cycle. While other Government Grant have generally performs at an average of 73.3%. The conditional grant transfers from Central government performed at 92.53% this was due to none release of quarter 4 development release to local Governments. Local Revenue performed at 86.7% of the budgeted amount Entire Cummulative Receipts were disbursed to the benefiting Deparments of the district. The cumulative Expenditure by the various department amounted to UGX 13,653,600,000 the over all expenditures represents perfomance of 100% leaving unspent cumulative balance of UGX 0 representing absorbtion of 100%. The absorbtion of fund was made possible by continouse dialogues with the service Providers who had initially loss hope due to the the none returns of the unspent fund for financial year 2011/12. Planned Revenues for 2014/15 During Financial year 2014/15 The District Budget is estimated and forecast to be at UGX 34,759,825,000. the estimated revenue represent an increase from the prior year Budget by a small amount of UGX 178,656,000/= the increase represents 11.86% of the prior year estimates . The reason for the increase was due to increased in civil servant salaries and funding by development Partners notably DANIDA for improvement of the roads, and orther government releases like NUSAF II locai Revenue projection for fy 2014/15 has increased from Shs 430,000,000/= in the previous year to Shs 431,000,000/= we have identified new revenue sources in Fisheries,, forestry and creation of new markets/landing sites , Central Government conditionalTrasnfer is projected to be at UGX 20,122,940,000/=, Discreational gov't transfers Shs 3,309,436,000/=, other Gov't transfers of Shs 7,053,716,000/=, Local development grant of shs 669,133,000/= and Donor funds of Shs 3,173,600,000/= this was as per the Final IPFs for Financial year 2014/15 and the third Budget call circular for financial year 2014/15 from Ministry of Finance Planning and Economic Development..The total Budget estimate for 2014/15 stands at Shs 34,759,825,000/= .

This is because much of the donor funds and other government transfers were budgeted for under this department and yet we only realised Government Transfers at 73.3%, Local Gov't Grant at 71.1% and Donor Funding at 27.3%. under other Government Grant was due to late Release of NUSAF II Grant by OPM. Likewise the release of donor funds is erratic hence affecting expenditures during the year for instance UNICEF which releases their support base on their funding cycle which is different from Central Government Quarterly release cycle. While other Government Grant have generally performs at an average of 73.3%. We also registered under performance under Production & marketing due to reduced donor funding to the sector at only 85% , Health at 83% which was across all sectors Planned Expenditures for 2014/15 The District has estimated total expenditures at Shs 34,759,825,000/=(9% increase) this increase is due to recruitment of more primary school teachers in the education department raising their wage bill by 9% as compared to the one for last financial year. The roads sector allocation also rose by 31% due to increased fundin by DANIDA. Community Development sector had an increase of 18% due to increased funding from SAGE and other donors to the sector. Planning unit has adecrease in its allocation due to reduction in Unicef contribution to the sector. The wage bill for the entire district has increased by 34% from the previous budget, Nonwage has decreased by a smaller percentage. Domestic Development grant has been increase by abigger percentage of 44% The funds have been allocated to the eleven departments for the implementation of the district planned activities as follows: spend greatly in the sectors of Education, Health, roads & water and Production and marketing since these are key areas of development in any community. Challenges in Implementation 1 - In adequate human capacity in local governments especially in LLG. 2 - Frequent structural and institutional changes and challenges which limit services delivery. Page 3 Local Government Performance Contract Vote: 502 Apac District Executive Summary 3 - Low local revenue which makes LG’s heavily dependent on central Gov’t transfers. 4 - Weak Coordination amongst sectors and lower local governments for effective implementation of programmes. 5 - Inadequate capacity to plan and manage disasters that occur in the district. 6- Low motivation, remuneration of civil servants, Poor road conditions which was made warseby the recent floods inadequate infrastructure limiting community access to productive land , increasing cost of production and access to markets and social services, inadequate and limited supply of electricity that hinders promotion of value addition and food processing, inadequate skilled manpower and understaffing, negative community attitudes and cultural practices that impact negatively on health seeking behavior and access to education, high population growth rate which is slightly above the national average, boarder conflicts,Negative atitude by the Hotel Owners to levy Local Hotel Tax, low rates of Local Service tax.Understaffing especially agricultural advisery Service Providers, Poor Transport means at sub County level,inadequate operation funding at all levels Page 4 Local Government Performance Contract Vote: 502 Apac District A.

    The Feasibility of Promoting Livestock Interventions in the Conflict Affected Areas of Northern Uganda Food Security Monitoring In Gulu, Amuru, Oyam, Northern Apac and Lira Districts Newsletter #12 Action Against Hunger / Mission Uganda 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW Action Against Hunger (ACF) is an international NGO implementing nutrition, water and sanitation and food security programmes in Northern Uganda. Since 2004, ACF has been conducting periodic monitoring on specific food security topics relevant to the conflict affected areas in Gulu, Amuru, Apac (Oyam) and Lira districts. This newsletter seeks to examine the factors still challenging households—IDP and returnee—in engaging and / or expanding their animal husbandry activities and what agencies can do to assist in fostering the sustainable re-growth of the activity in Northern Uganda. The study is meant to capture trends more so than precision. The field assessment took place over 17 days in July and August 2007 by ACF food security staff. Interviews were conducted with 150 households in 15 areas, 14 agencies implementing animal based programmes or involved in marketing, and 14 veterinary service providers in Gulu, Amuru, Oyam, Lira and Northern Apac districts. Transect walks were completed in 17 areas and observations done in eight markets. MAJOR FINDINGS • Livestock ownership is primary goats and poultry in both sub-regions followed by cattle and pigs • Methods of upkeep are generally free range and some tethering with little provision of shelters for animals • Most

Introduction There have been reports of persistent human rights violations in 1991 in the northern Ugandan districts of Gulu, Kitgum, Lira and Apac, committed in particular by the Ugandan army, known as the National Resistance Army (NRA). Rebel forces have been active in these districts for many years and have been responsible for abductions, torture and killing of civilians. Human rights violations by the Ugandan authorities include the imprisonment of 18 prisoners of conscience, the detention without charge or trial of civilians suspected of involvement in rebel activities, the administrative sentencing of 1,100 others for "desertion", the ill-treatment of prisoners in military custody, and extrajudicial executions. In March and April 1991 18 local and national northern political leaders, many of them sympathizers of the Democratic Party (DP), were arrested by the NRA. They were charged with treason on 7 May, after being held without charge for periods ranging from three to six weeks, but the state has proved unable to present details of their alleged treasonable activity to the courts.

    www.ugandainvest.go.ug Invest in Lango Background This investment profile is aimed at promoting the potential of the Greater Lango region so as to propel its economic potential and attract both local and foreign investors to stimulate the development of the region. The profile takes a multi-sectoral analysis approach so as to support the relevant value chains players in harnessing the different opportunities. The sectors of focus are those which are positioned to develop the region such as agriculture (and agro-processing), tourism, trade, manufacturing and services such as education, health and finances. There are some incentives which specific districts are willing to give investors such as industrial and agricultural land for easy location of their businesses. These can be coupled with the National incentives especially for investors willing to set up upcountry. The Lango sub-region is currently divided into 9 districts of Alebtong, Amolatar, Apac, Dokolo, Kole, Lira, Oyam, Otuke and Kwania District. It’s a relatively urbanized region with two Municipalities in Lira and Apac districts where manufacturing, trade and services are evidently booming. The region is situated within the annual cropping and cattle-farming systems that are primarily found in Northern Uganda. The region is dry compared to the rest of the country and experiences one long rainy season also called the unimodal type of rainfall, yet farmers can still grow two crops in a year. The country’s grain basket and in fact contributing to the GDP. The profile shows the crucial facilitating role played by both the Government agencies and local authorities whose main role is to propel Local Economic Development.
