HON. SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT Opinion I have audited the accompanying financial statements of Uganda National Roads Authority for the year ending 30th June 2020, which comprise the Statement of Financial Position as at 30th June 2020, and the Statement of Financial Performance, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows together with other accompanying statements for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In my opinion, except for the possible effect of the matters described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of my report, the financial statements of Uganda National Roads Authority for the year ended 30th June 2020 are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with section 51 of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015 and the Financial Reporting Guide, 2018. Basis for Qualified Opinion 1.0 Improperly maintained Receivables Ledgers Receivables totalling to UGX.604,835,635,481 relating to Development and maintenance projects were reported in the financial statements for the year. However, contracts and receivables ledgers were improperly maintained or not maintained for some of the road projects. Without proper ledgers, I was unable to confirm the accuracy and completeness of the figures reported for the advances and recoveries therefrom. 2.0 Mischarge of Expenditure –UGX 289,157,979,077 Expenditure totalling to UGX 289,157,979,077 (UGX 288,713,825,335 from UNRA TSSA and UGX 444,153,742 from UNRA Road Funds) was charged on budget lines to fund activities that were not planned for without authority. The practice undermines the budgetary process and the intensions of the appropriating authority as funds are not utilized for the intended purpose. The accuracy and completeness of the financial statements is compromised, since the figures reported therein do not reflect the actual amounts and outputs for which the funds were expended. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions (ISSAIs). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of the Uganda National Roads Authority in accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda (1995) as amended, the National Audit Act, 2008, the International Organization of 3 Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) Code of Ethics, the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (Parts A and B) (IESBA Code), and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of Financial Statements in Uganda. I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code, and in accordance with other ethical requirements applicable to performing audits in Uganda. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my qualified opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on this matter. In addition to the matters described in the Basis for Qualified for Opinion section of my report, I have determined the matter described below to be a key audit matter communicated in my report. 3.0 Implementation of the approved budget Every year, Government plans and allocates funds to MDAs for implementation of activities that would enable the country to attain sustainable development. I observed that MDAs have challenges with regard to implementation of planned activities, which negatively affects service delivery and improvement of the people’s wellbeing. As a result, the implementation of the approved budget was considered a key audit matter and during the office-wide planning, I identified risks common with MDAs which include; non-implementation of strategic plans, underperformance of revenue, implementation of off-budget activities, under absorption of funds, insufficient quantification of outputs, partial and non-implementation of outputs, diversion of funds and challenges in budget monitoring and reporting of performance. Uganda National Roads Authority has a constitutional mandate to manage, maintain and develop the national roads network; to advise the Government on policy matters concerning roads generally, and to assist in the co-ordination and implementation of the policies governing road development and maintenance. In order to achieve this mandate, the Authority planned to implement and achieve a number of both recurrent and development outputs under various programmes. A review of the entity’s budget revealed that the UNRA had an approved budget of UGX 4,019,068,912,990, out of

  • Vote: 605 Kibuku District Structure of Budget Framework Paper
    Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 605 Kibuku District Structure of Budget Framework Paper Foreword Executive Summary A: Revenue Performance and Plans B: Summary of Department Performance and Plans by Workplan C: Draft Annual Workplan Outputs for 2013/14 Page 1 Local Government Budget Framework Paper Vote: 605 Kibuku District Foreword In order to keep the development planning process of the District consistent with national policies,planning & budgeting is one way of documenting intervations in line with decentralisation frame work. The completion of the budget frame work process has set the foundation on which the planning and budgeting process for the financial year 2013/14 will be based & thus giving the opportunity to the local Government to identify projects which have a poverty focus approach and which are in harmony with the pillars of PEAP.While coming up with this BFP departments have had to refer to the bench marks set at the beginning of the financial year.This has therefore enabled the harmonisation of the District pririoties with the national ones, bearing in mind the result oriented management principle. The fact that this is an annual exercise, it is a reliable mechanism which provides a yard stick for realistic planning & budgeting in the local government and also provides a basis of comparision of the District achievements compared to national standards. The District is faced with a challenge of inadquate resources,there is need for our local Government to explore more into the existing and new sources of Local Revenue in order to ensure sustainability. Meanwhile we request the central Government to continue making available more resources to Kibuku District such that the gaps are filled in order to improve service delivery with the ultimate aim of reducing disparities and improving on the incomes and quality of life of our people.

The civilian population is vulnerable to being abducted, beaten, maimed, tortured, raped, violated and murdered on a daily basis. Over 20,000 children have been abducted by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) and forced into fighting and sexual slavery. Up to 40,000 children commute nightly to sleep in centres of town and avoid abduction. Victims and perpetrators are often the same person, and currently there is no system of accountability for those most responsible for the atrocities.

  • 1. Introduction
    1. Introduction 1.1 Background to the Case Study This report presents a case study on bicycles, women and rural transport in Uganda. It is the result of field work carried out in the Mbale and Tororo districts of eastern Uganda during a three-week visit in September 1991. The case study forms part of the Rural Travel and Transport Project (RTTP) of the World Bank- financed Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Program (SSATP), a major research program covering transport in SSA. One aspect of this program is the RTTP, which is designed to focus on transport at the level where it has the most direct influence on economic (particularly agricultural) and social development in rural areas of SSA. One of the key aims of the RTTP is to recommend approaches to the improvement of rural transport services, and to the adoption of intermediate technologies to increase personal mobility and agricultural production. This research is being conducted through Village-Level Transport and Travel Surveys (VLTTS) and related case studies. The World Bank has commissioned the International Labor Organization, in collaboration with I.T. Transport, to execute the VLTTS and the related case studies under the RTTP. 1.2 General Objectives of the Case Study The objective of the case study is to investigate two key aspects of rural mobility and accessibility focusing on: (i) The role of intermediate means of transport (IMT) in improving mobility, and the institutional and implementation policy requirements necessary for developing the use of IMT; and (ii) The role of transport in women's daily lives, - given that a major part of the transport burden falls on women in addition to their substantial agricultural and domestic responsibilities, and the impact of improvements in mobility and accessibility upon women.
