The bulk of the funds were for salaries which consumed 52% of the total receipts. Of these releases, Local revenues accounted for the least outturn posting a paltry 56% attributed to unrealistic estimation and poor assessment of revenue sources by the LLGs. Transfers from the centre under discretionary and conditional grants averaged at 80% and 89% respectively. Local Development Grant and Other transfers from the centre posted 100% and 104% mainly released and utilized in Q.1-Q.2 for Census 2014 activities. Budgetary support from our development partners (donors) registered 87% outturn and these were channelled into sanitation and hygiene promotion, HIV/AIDS mitigation and capacity building. Despite the low Local revenue turnover, overall budget performance was good. Page 2 Local Government Quarterly Performance Report Vote: 582 Buikwe District 2014/15 Quarter 4 Summary: Overview of Revenues and Expenditures Accordingly, Ushs. 26.72bn was transferred to the respective departments retaining a balance of Ushs.15.56m on the general fund account which included Local revenues earmaked for administrative expenses for both District and LLGs. In regard to expenditure performance, of the cummulative receipts to departments totalling to Ushs.26.72bn, overall departments managed to utilize 84% of the funds released save for Health which had unspent balances specifically, due to delayed delivery and installation of the solar system. Overall, the District managed to deliver nearly on all planned outputs for the year ending June 2015.

  • The Least Cost Generation Plan 2016
    THE LEAST COST GENERATION PLAN 2016 – 2025 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2013, the Authority developed a 5 year Least Cost Generation Plan (LCGP) that covered the period 2013 to 2018. An update of the LCGP has been undertaken covering a 10 year period of 2016 to 2025. The update involved review of the load forecast in light of changed parameters, commissioning dates for committed projects, costs of generation plants, transmission and distribution system investment requirements. In the update of the plan, similar to the Power Sector Investment Plan, prepared by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development, the ”Econometric Demand” forecasting method was used at distribution level to forecast Commercial, Medium Industry and Large Industry customer category demand. A bottom up approach was used for Domestic customer category using the end-user method. A Base Case, Low Case and High Case scenario were developed for sensitivity analysis. The resultant demand forecast was 6.5%, 3.6% and 12% growth rate in energy demand for the Base Case, Low Case and High Case scenarios respectively. This growth rate is lower than the projection in the 2013 LCGP of 10%, 5% and 14% for Base Case, Low Case and High Case respectively. A number of energy supply options were considered including Hydro, Peat, Solar PV, Bagasse Cogeneration, Wind and Natural Gas. The planned supply considered already existing, committed and candidate generation plants/projects with their estimated commissioning dates aligned. We note that more than 80% of the generation will come from hydro. 1 In the demand supply balance, Figure E1 shows the demand and supply balance over the planning period.

This report, for the first time, coincides with the Government financial year. 2. From the financial point of view the year has again been one of considerable difficulty since, as a result of the Economy Commission Report, it was necessary to restrict the money available for recurrent expenditure to the same level as the previous year. Although an additional sum was available to cover normal increases in salaries, the general effect was that many economies had to in all be made grades of staff; some important vacancies could not be filled, and expansion was out of the question.
