Recurrent: Wage Only 3.2% (UGX 1.137Bn) of the half year cumulative released recurrent wage bill (UGX 35.553Bn) was unspent by close of the quarter (Q2) of FY 2020/21. UNRA did not absorb 100% of the cumulative half year releases because the recruitment process was hampered by the partial lock down and in order to maintain the Standard Operating Procedures, the recruitment was suspended for about five (05) months. However, recruitment resumed through online interviews and is expected to conclude before the end of the FY 2020/21. 2. Recurrent: Non-Wage. 15.4% (UGX 2.196Bn) of the half year cumulative released recurrent non-wage budget (UGX 14.221Bn) was unspent by close of the quarter (Q2) of FY 202021. The inability to absorb 100% of the releases is mainly attributable to: UGX 1,571,090,326 under medical insurance. The invoices for the medical insurance service providers were still undergoing the approval processes by close of the quarter which explains the low absorption of the released funds. UGX 309,108,417 under employer contribution to the Social Security and Retirement Benefits Scheme contribution. The low absorption is attributed to the delays in recruitment which has a direct impact on the absorption of both NSSF and RBS. Refer to table V1.3 for the explanations of other expenditure lines. 3. Development Budget UNRA was appropriated a total of UGX 3,402.211 billion for development of the National Road network, with financing from the Government of Uganda (GoU) consolidated fund in the amount of UGX 1,724.552 billion and External Financing in the amount of UGX 1,643.998 billion for projects directly supported by the Development Partners. UNRA was also appropriated a total of UGX 33.662 billion for domestic arrears under the Development budget. 3.1 Performance of Development - GoU Financed Budget 11.3% (UGX 106.481Bn) of the half year cumulative GoU Development budget (945.787Bn) was unspent by the close of the second quarter (Q2) of FY 2020/21. UNRA¶s inability to absorb 100% of the released funds is largely attributed to the following; UGX 53.759Bn for advance payment to contractors for mobilization; UGX 53.759Bn was released for payment of advance to contractors along Kira-Kasangati-Matugga, Najjanankumbi-Busabala and Masaka City town roads. However, the advance securities in respect to these projects were still under review by close of the quarter. It should be noted that these funds have already been spent within January-2021. UGX 29.118Bn relates to payments on IPCs and Invoices under approval process. A number of IPCs and invoices related to a variety of projects including Nakalama Tirinyi Mbale, Fortportal-Hima andf Tirinyi-Pallisa-Kamonkoli among others were still in approval process by close of the second quarter of the FY 2020/21. 3.2 Arrears Budget 1.6% (0.612Bn) of the half year cumulative released funds for payment of arrears amounting to UGX 39.36Bn was unspent by close of the second quarter. The arrears relating to the remittances to East African Community Secretariat was still in approval process and hence, the under absorption. 3.3 Performance of Development - Externally Financed Budget 86.3% (874.479Bn) of the half year cumulative released Development External budget (UGX 1,012.861Bn) was spent by end of the second quarter. The cumulative cash limit amounting to UGX 1,012.861Bn represents 61.6% of the approved annual External Financing budget released. The absorption was mainly boosted by the payment for the Loan Insurance and works under the Critical Oil Roads projects. We expect the absorption to increase above 86% once the advance to the contractors of Lot 1 and 2 for Rwenkunye- Apac- Lira-Acholibur road is paid and Loan for Package 5 of the Oil roads is approved and payments processed.

The unspent funds mainly relate to Medical Insurance, Social security contributions, allowances, Electricity and Telecommunication. The explanations for the low absorption on these item lines are elaborated below.

Casuals, Temporary) Reason: Out of UGX 235m cumulatively released for the first half of the FY, UGX 166.528m was spent by the end of the second quarter leaving UGX 68.472m unspent. The need to maintain the Standard Operating Procedures required to prevent the spread of covid-19 has resulted in the spacing of the planned activities. As a result, some of the activities planned for Q2 were rescheduled to Q3. 60,789,671.000 UShs 223005 Electricity Reason: Out of UGX 206.9m cumulatively released for the first half of the FY, UGX 146.110m was spent by the end of the second quarter leaving UGX 60.790m unspent.

The unspent funds amounting to UGX 291.312m relates to the funds for the supervision consultant. Items 291,312,000.000 UShs 281504 Monitoring, Supervision & Appraisal of Capital work Reason: UGX 291.312m was cumulatively released for the first half of the FY, however, no expenditure was incurred by the close of the quarter. The funds were released for payment of counterpart financing for the advance of the supervision consultant. The consultant bills UNRA every 6 months. By the end of December 2020, the invoice was still undergoing the approval process. However, adequate provision of GOU counterpart funding is necessary to ensure that the EU fulfills their obligations. 0.758 Bn Shs SubProgram/Project :0267 Improvement of Ferry Services Reason: Out of UGX 24.681Bn cumulatively released for the first half of the FY, UGX 23.530Bn was spent by the end of the quarter leaving UGX 1.151Bn unspent.

  • Albertine Region Sustainable Development Project (Arsdp)
    Republic of Uganda ALBERTINE REGION SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (ARSDP) RESETTLEMENT POLICY FRAMEWORK (RPF) VOLUME 1 FINAL DRAFT REPORT NOVEMBER 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background The Government of Uganda (GoU) with support of the World Bank (IDA) is preparing the Albertine Region Sustainable Development Project. The Albertine Rift Valley is a center for rapid growth which is likely to accelerate with the oil development underway in the region. To ensure that the benefits of the oil development reach the residents of the area, GoU is keen to improve connectivity to and within the region and local economic infrastructure. The two Districts of Buliisa and Hoima are the focus of the project as well as the Town Council of Buliisa. Hoima Municipality is already included in the USMID project, which is shortly to commence, and is thus not included in the ARSDP. Project Components The Project has three components which are outlined below. Component 1. upgrading of 238km of Kyenjojo-Kabwoya-Hoima-Masindi-Kigumba is to be funded by both the AfDB (138km) and The World Bank (IDA) (100km). The RAP for this component has already been prepared, comments reviewed by the Bank and an update of PAPs and property is on going therefore this RPF does not cover component 1. The project coverage for component 2 and 3 will be as described below but in the event that additional districts are added under component 2 and any additioanl technical colleges are added under component 3 this RPF will apply. Component 1: Regional Connectivity: Improvement of the Kyenjojo-Kabwoya-Hoima- Kigumba National Road.
