The report is premised on an analysis of commitments in the National Development Plan, Ministerial Policy Statement, Budget Framework Paper, the HSSIP, the 20th JRM Aide Memoire and the annual sector workplans at various levels. The report is discussed at the Annual Health Sector Joint Review Mission, and is based on the assessment of what has been achieved and what has not, and reasons why, to guide future programming. The sector is committed to refocusing priorities to interventions aimed at making positive progress towards implementing the strategies of the National Health Policy II, and achieving the National Development Plan targets and Millennium Development Goals. The sector continues to prioritize interventions defined in the Uganda National Minimum Health Care Package under a Sector-Wide Approach arrangement, with emphasis on recommendations of the HSSIP 2010/11 -2014/15 Mid-Term review. This is further supported by the resolutions of the World Health Assembly, the International Health Partnerships, the Paris Declaration on Harmonization and Alignment and the Accra Agenda for Action and related initiatives. The Government of Uganda recognizes the contribution of Health Development Partners, Civil Society, the Private Sector and the community in the reported sector performance. Sector performance cannot be improved and sustained without the dedicated efforts of all categories of health workers, working under sometimes challenging conditions, especially in the rural and hard-to-reach parts of the Country. I commend the dedicated and productive health workers, and I implore those health workers whose work ethic, behaviour and conduct hold back sector progress, to improve. I wish to thank the Health Policy Advisory Committee members for always giving policy guidance to the sector and for their contribution in the preparation of the Joint Review Mission. Special gratitude goes to the JRM Secretariat, Task Force and Subcommittees that ensured that this annual report was compiled. For God and My Country Hon.
