RWANDA BORDER TO THE COMMITTEE OF PARLIAMENT ON EAST AFRICAN COMMUNITY AFFAIRS 1 1.0 Introduction Following the closure of Cyanika, Katuna and Mirama Hills Border Posts on the 27'h Feb 2019 by the Republic of Rwanda, as part of their mandate, the Ministry of East African Community 411ur.s (MEACA) has undertaken a number of steps as indicated below. 1.1 Mission to assess the situation at Uganda-Rwanda One Stop Border Posts (OSBPS), lsr-2nd March, 2019. The Ministry sent officers on ground to assess the situation. The officers wrote a report. This report was presented in a meeting of all responsible MDAs that was convened by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has been the Official Government Ministry handling this matter. 1.2 Mission to assess the post-closure situation at Uganda-Rwanda Borders, 9'h- 10'h August, 2019. The Ministry undertook an assessment of the post-closure situation at the borders. It emerged that; i. There is still free rnovement of persons (Ugandan Nationals and other Nationalities) to and from Rwanda save for the Rwandan citizens who are only allowed entry and no ex;.t from Rwanda. ii. The only Rwandan nationals allowed exit from Rwanda from the borders above are the drivers on transit to Kenya and not to Uganda. iii. It was also noted that the Ugandans who cross to Rwanda only go there mostly to attend Parties or Funerals, and not business as the environment for Ugandan goodsTproducts is hostiie. iv. \{hereas Ugandan nationals are allowed to enter Rwanda, it is unfortunate that Ugandan goods/products arc not allowed entry. These are rejected \ rith no reasons given, no rejection notes/documents are provided. Many drivers have suffered the disappointment of being told to turn back to Uganda. 2. V It has also been observed that smuggling is on the increase on both sides. This has seen many citizens especially of Rwanda being shot dead by their own police. VI. A number of schools around the borders have been rendered redundant as result of the closure. It was observed that a big number of students were crossing on a daily basis to receive education in Uganda and this has completely stopped thus not only affecting the population in schools but also the logisticai arrangements of many schools. \,11. Following the closure, cooperation among the agencies has broken dor,rm. Joint border meetings are no longer held, there is completely no communication between the agencies. This situation has fuelled mistrust among the border comrlunities. vlu. The security agencies observed that the rate of crime has increased as a result of no business as many youth have resorted to theft and murder. A number of such cases have been reported. The parents now have a burden of taking care of youth lvho would otherwise be working for themselves. 3.0 Uganda's Trade with the EAC 3.1 Imports The table below shows Ugancla's imports by value from the EAC for the period JuIy 2018 to June 20i9.

    STATEMENT by H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of the Republic of Uganda At The Annual Budget Conference - Financial Year 2016/17 For Ministers, Ministers of State, Head of Public Agencies and Representatives of Local Governments November11, 2015 - UICC Serena 1 H.E. Vice President Edward Ssekandi, Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Ruhakana Rugunda, I was informed that there is a Budgeting Conference going on in Kampala. My campaign schedule does not permit me to attend that conference. I will, instead, put my views on paper regarding the next cycle of budgeting. As you know, I always emphasize prioritization in budgeting. Since 2006, when the Statistics House Conference by the Cabinet and the NRM Caucus agreed on prioritization, you have seen the impact. Using the Uganda Government money, since 2006, we have either partially or wholly funded the reconstruction, rehabilitation of the following roads: Matugga-Semuto-Kapeeka (41kms); Gayaza-Zirobwe (30km); Kabale-Kisoro-Bunagana/Kyanika (101 km); Fort Portal- Bundibugyo-Lamia (103km); Busega-Mityana (57km); Kampala –Kalerwe (1.5km); Kalerwe-Gayaza (13km); Bugiri- Malaba/Busia (82km); Kampala-Masaka-Mbarara (416km); Mbarara-Ntungamo-Katuna (124km); Gulu-Atiak (74km); Hoima-Kaiso-Tonya (92km); Jinja-Mukono (52km); Jinja- Kamuli (58km); Kawempe-Kafu (166km); Mbarara-Kikagati- Murongo Bridge (74km); Nyakahita-Kazo-Ibanda-Kamwenge (143km); Tororo-Mbale-Soroti (152km); Vurra-Arua-Koboko- Oraba (92km). 2 We are also, either planning or are in the process of constructing, re-constructing or rehabilitating

  • The Informal Cross Border Trade Qualitative Baseline Study 2008 Uganda Bureau of Statistics
    UGANDA BUREAU OF STATISTICS THE INFORMAL CROSS BORDER TRADE QUALIT ATIVE BASELINE STUDY 2008 February 2009 FOREWORD The Qualitative Module of the Informal Cross Border Trade (ICBT) Survey is the first comprehensive Study of its kind to be conducted in Uganda to bridge information gaps regarding informal trade environment. The study was carried out at Busia, Mirama Hills, Mpondwe and Mutukula border posts. The ICBT Qualitative study collected information on informal trade environment and the constraints traders’ experience in order to guide policy formulation, planning and decision making in the informal cross border sub-sector. The study focused specifically on gender roles in ICBT, access to financial services, marketing information, food security, and tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade among others. This study was conducted alongside the ICBT Quantitative Module that collected information on the nature of products transacted, their volumes and value, and, the direction of trade. Notwithstanding the significant contribution informal cross border trade has made to the welfare of the people of the East African region (in terms of employment creation, economic empowerment of women, food security, regional and social integration), there are no appropriate policies designed to guide players in the informal trade sector. The information gathered, therefore, will provide an insight into the challenges informal traders face in their day to day business and will guide policy and decision makers to enact appropriate policies to harness the potential benefits of informal cross border trade. The Bureau is grateful to the Integrated Framework (IF) through TRACE Project of the Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Industry for the financial contribution that facilitated the study.

  • Transport Sector Policy
    REPUBLIC OF RWANDA MINISTRY OF INFRASTRUCTURE TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY December 2008 1 TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY I. INTRODUCTION 1. The transport sector is a strategic sector for Rwanda, and the situation of being landlocked has a negative impact on economic growth and development of the country. The exceptionally high cost of transport at national as well as international levels, as well as insufficient affordable and accessible modes of transport for people in both urban and rural areas, constitute a major constraint which must be taken into account with the sector policy to achieve the short medium and long-term development goals that Rwanda has mandated. 2. The present sectoral policy defines the vision of the Government for the sector as well as its strategic orientations, which will guide its actions during the next five years. These are summarized in the Transport Sector Policy Matrix (Appendix 1). The implementation of the sector policy is ensured through medium term programmes such as the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) for the period 2009-2012 as annexed in Appendix 2. 3. The transport sector policy is inspired by the planning tools available in Rwanda, such as the Vision 2020, the Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS), the National Investment Strategy and the Medium Term Expenditure Framework. It takes into account other tools of reference such as the Millennium Development Objectives and the action plan of the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy (SSATP). It also takes into account cross-cutting issues such as HIV/AIDS and environmental protection. I.1. Definition of the Transport Sector 4.

    MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) prepared this General Management Plan with total funding from Uganda Wildlife Authority. Consultations were held with all relevant stakeholders both at Resource use level, Subcounty level, District level and at National Level. Furthermore an analysis of stakeholders was done which gave guidance on the consultations made. Uganda Wildlife Authority highly acknowledges the Local Communities and the entire Kisoro district leadership, who contributed to the proposals during the Planning process. Prepared by: Uganda Wildlife Authority Input from: BMCA field staff, Senior UWA staff and stakeholders Guidance from: Uganda Wildlife Authority Top Management staff Drafted by: The Planning team Edited by: Edgar Buhanga and Richard Kapere as a secretariat of the planning team i MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 FOREWORD Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (33.7 km2) is contiguous with Parc National des Virunga (240 km2) in the DRC, and Parc National des Volcans (160 km2) in Rwanda, all forming the proposed transbound- ary PA known as the Virunga Conservation Area covering an area of 434 km2. The park includes three of the Virunga volcanoes - Mt Muhabura (4,127 m), Mt Gahinga (3,474 m) from which the park derives its name, and Mt Sabinyo (3,645 m). This park forms part of the home of the world’s Moun- tain Gorilla population and the Golden Monkey species. This document presents a ten-year management plan for Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (MGNP). Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) is committed to the continued sustainable management of the Park ecosystem. This can only be achieved through proper long term planning which government has already identified and provided for in the Uganda Wildlife Act (Cap 200).
