Annual Health Sector Performance Report
THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA Annual Health Sector Performance Report Financial Year 2006/2007 October 2007 Blank Page Foreword The health sector in FY 2006/07 implemented the 2nd Year of the Health Sector Strategic Plan II (HSSP II). The focus has been on scaling up interventions and consolidating reforms initiated during the HSSP I and in the 1st Year of the HSSP II in order to achieve the Poverty Eradication Action Plan (PEAP) objectives and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The Uganda Demographic and Health Survey 2006 shows that there have been improvements in Infant Mortality Rate, Under5 Mortality Rate and Total Fertility Rate. The data is not conclusive on Maternal Mortality Ratio. These improvements in health outcomes indicate that it is indeed possible to make a difference in the life of Ugandans. The improvements in health outcomes were contributed to by different sectors; however the contribution of the health sector in terms of stewardship and advocacy, and improved coverage with good quality services for preventive, promotive and curative has been key. The AHSPR 2006/07 documents sector performance against agreed HSSP II indicators and Year II targets. The AHSPR 2006/07 indicates fairly good performance as shown by the performance against the 8 PEAP and HSSP II indicators. The sector performance for FY 2006/07 was on or above target for 3 indicators namely: Couple Years of Protection (CYP) a measure of family planning uptake; Proportion of children below 1 year that have received pentavalent vaccine 3rd dose; and New OPD attendance per capita. Sector performance was below target for 3 indicators namely: Proportion of deliveries taking place in government and PNFP health facilities; Proportion of health facilities with tracer medicines all the time (i.e. -

3.3 Current Situation and Key Issues of the Public Transport Sector in Gkma
Final Report The Study on Greater Kampala Road Network and Transport Improvement in the Republic of Uganda November 2010 3.3 CURRENT SITUATION AND KEY ISSUES OF THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT SECTOR IN GKMA 3.3.1 OVERVIEW OF THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT The privately owned Uganda Transport Company (UTC) held the exclusive franchise for bus services in Kampala until its nationalization in 1972. At that time, its only competition came from shared taxis which are saloon or estate cars. Following its nationalization, UTC contracted and focused more closely on its long-distance services. As a result, the market for urban transport services in Kampala became open to private sector operators using small minibus vehicles. In 1994 a commercial vehicle distributor established City Link as a private-sector large bus operation with some 40 vehicles in service. However, UTODA was able to organize an effective competition to this initiative. City Link meanwhile did not succeed by operating similar to that of minibus services based on fill-and-run principle, rather than operating based on scheduled services. Thus, the company shortly collapsed. Feedback from these results indicates that although City Link was popular, its operations were too thinly spread over the network and were not able to provide a reliable service. Public transport passengers within Kampala have very limited choice such as minibus services or motorcycle services with the majority as minibus services locally called taxis. 3.3.2 TAXI/MINIBUS Main supply of public transport in Kampala is now by minibuses, which are known locally as taxi (photographs bellow). KCC estimated that in 2003, there were nearly 7,000 minibuses based in the GKMA. -
