The primary objective of the assignment, as articulated in the Terms of Reference (ToR), is to undertake the necessary due diligence to confirm relevance of progressing to the transaction stage and, when confirmed, to recommend on the alternatives and best option for a potential transaction for the involvement of the private sector in each one of the three following areas (the “Three Areas”): • The operation of freight and passenger vessels on Lake Victoria on point to point services between ports across the Lake (“Influence Area A”). • The development and operation of stage passenger and ferry services, and required landing sites, on scheduled services to connect the islands to the mainland within Uganda, on routes currently operated by MoWT or not serviced (“Influence Area B”). • The operation of the inland ports of Port Bell and Jinja in Uganda, under a ‘landlord’ arrangement (“Influence Area C”). These three areas are shortly elaborated on in Appendix I. Furthermore, the report is structured as follows: • Section 1 provides a contextual framework for the assignment, outlining the current situation and any identified developments of the overall EAC transport system and specifically for the Lake Victoria transport system. • Section 2 provides a discussion of Uganda’s trade profile and further details commodity groups that provide opportunities for Lake Victoria transport. • Section 3 comprises demand forecasts for both cargo (Influence Area A and C) and passenger (Influence Area B) flows on Lake Victoria. • Section 4 identifies and assesses potential technical implementation options for each of the Influence Areas, in line with the traffic projections. Following selection of preferred implementation options, cost estimates and further technical elaborations are provided. • Section 5 comprises a tariff benchmark, which is aimed at identifying feasible and optimal tariffs for the Lake Victoria cargo and passenger projects outlined in earlier sections. • Section 6 comprises an initial Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), which is aimed at identifying key environmental and social risks concerned with the development projects outlined in earlier sections. • Section 7 covers a Legal Due Diligence, consisting of a review of (i) the relevant legal framework for implementing the envisioned projects; (ii) Uganda’s general experience with implementing PPP projects; and (iii) contracts of current operational ferry PPP projects in Uganda. • Section 8 comprises the project-level business case, assessing the project-level feasibility and bankability of the envisioned projects for each of the three influence areas. Assessment of the feasibility and bankability is based on financial metrics such as a Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and payback period. • Following the project business case, the economic performance of the envisioned projects is assessed and presented in section 9. • Section 10 comprises an elaboration of potential Public-Private Partnership (PPP) structures for each of the three influence areas. From the identified options, a preferred PPP option is subsequently selected for each of the influence areas. • Based on the PPP structures selected in Section 10, Section 11 presents a Value for Money (VfM) analysis. The VfM compares the financial performance of the project as implemented through a PPP structure or through traditional public procurement (Public Sector Comparator). • Section 12 comprises a high-level implementation plan for the identified projects, providing an overview of steps that need to be taken, key stakeholders of each of the steps, milestones, timelines, and potential risks. confidential Lake Victoria Transport PPP Due Diligence | 17th of October 2017 Page I In order to harmonize the report structure with the activities as outlined in the ToR, a matching matrix is provided below.

Tucker’s immediate response to this news of the loss of one of the Mombasa missionaries was to acknowledge “the intense anguish of my mind when with such tidings ringing in my ears and feeling physically weak and ill I set foot for the first time on the shores of Africa.”1 It would be far from the last death among the Church Missionary Society personnel in his twenty-one year episcopacy in East Africa but, with the history of death in the East African endeavour and the uncertainty of his own well-being so close at hand, the gravity of the greeting elicited the anxiety laden response recorded above.

    Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 515 Kalangala District Structure of Budget Framework Paper Foreword Executive Summary A: Revenue Performance and Plans B: Summary of Performance by Department Page 1 Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 515 Kalangala District Foreword In accordance with Section 36 of the Local Government Act (Cap 243), Local Governments prepare appropriate plans and documents in conformity with Central Government guidelines and formats.In pursuance of the said Act, Kalangala District Local Government has prepared a Local Government Budget Framework Paper for the period 2017/18. This document was developed through a participatory process that brought on board different stakeholders in a bottom up planning approach starting at village level and climaxed by the District Budget conference held on 3rd November 2016 in which development partners participated among others. This document is derived from the approved 5 year District Development Plan for 2015/16 -2019/20. The Development Plans focuses on the following key strategic objectives; • To improve household incomes and promote food security, • To promote good governance, • To enhance local revenue collection using best practices, • To improve the stock and quality of water and road infrastructure. • To increase safe water coverage and sanitation in the District, • To increase access, quality and equity of education for girls and boys • To improvement in the quality of health care services, The District has however continued to experience Challenges; The allocation formular which the Government uses when allocating funds does not favour the District because it considers land area and not surface coverage yet the District has a total area of 9,066.8 sq km of which 432.1 sq km (4.8%) is land, the rest is water mass about 8,634.7 sq km(95.2%) without putting into consideration the many peculiar challeges including connectivity problems of moving from one Island to another which makes the costs of service delivery very high.
