Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 523 Kayunga District Structure of Budget Framework Paper Foreword Executive Summary A: Revenue Performance and Plans B: Summary of Department Performance and Plans by Workplan C: Draft Annual Workplan Outputs for 2014/15 Page 1 Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 523 Kayunga District Foreword The Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 1995 provides for enactment of the Local Government’s Act CAP 243. Article 77(1) of the Local government Act, CAP, 243, empowers local governments to formulate, approve and execute their budgets and Work plans. Also Section.35 of the Act confers planning Authority to the District Council and this is what has been done in the preparation of this Medium Term Expenditure Framework as a basis for annual planning and budgeting. This District has been facing a number of challenges in the process of delivering services to the people. Among these include, lack of Ambulance in the District hospital, Increasing population which do not match with the available resources, Deterioration of Road infrastructures especially during rainy seasons, Lack of enough permanent structures in Primary schools as a result of increasing enrolments in primary schools, high labour turnover especially in Health sector, lack of sanitation facilities in public places like Markets, schools. However, the District has tried through funding from the central Government and Implementing partners to overcome some of the challenges i.e. rehabilitate most of the Roads, Equip Health Units with drugs and other equipments, Recruit and motivate Medical doctors (7 Doctors) through Top-up allowances at Hospital and HCIV level and also acquired an Ambulance for the district hospital, Constructed staff houses for Health workers and Teachers, Facilitated OVC with school fees and health support through donor funding, Construction of Pit latrines in Rural Growth Centres and schools. We undertook a comprehensive stakeholder consultation exercise (Budget conference) involving Donors like SDS, MUWRP, the Central Government and the LLGs to ask people what they felt our priorities should be and this was one of the largest, and far-reaching, consultations in our history and many stakeholders gave us their views during the conference. These views have allowed our Technical staff and Councilors to be fully informed about the community needs. I would like to thank everybody who has taken part in the consultation and assure you that the entire process has been undertaken with the best interest of our communities at heart. l also wish to recognize the technical guidance rendered by the Directorate of Finance and planning to all other departments, which has led to successful preparations of the LGBFP. Besides that, i acknowledge that all of our services are important - and all of them have an impact somewhere for the people of Kayunga. But we are in a financial position where we have had to dramatically prioritize in order to ensure that the most vulnerable members of our community are protected and our most vital services continue to be delivered. Therefore, I call upon all the Development partners to support the District to improve on service delivery directly or indirectly. ENG.
