EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Central Government is required by Article 193 of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 1995 (as amended) to provide grants to LGs in form of unconditional, conditional and equalisation grants. However, there has been a decline in transfers from Central Government to LGs; the share of the national budget allocated to LG programs reduced to 10 percent in FY2018/19 from 13 percent in 2016/17. The decline is largely attributed to recentralisation of functions and resources that by law are mandated to LGs.Therefore, Advocates Coalition for Development and Environment (ACODE) with support from USAID and UKAID under the Governance, Accountability, Participation and Performance (GAPP) program commissioned this study to analyse the proposed national budget allocations for FY 2019/20 to ascertain budgetary allocations that should be implemented by the Local Governments (LGs) but retained by Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), and recommend for reallocation to LGs with a view of influencing the final budget allocations.The study relied mainly on an extensive document review of all relevant budget documents focusing mainly on the Draft Estimates of Expenditure (Recurrent and Development) FY 2019/20. Identifying budget lines meant for LGs, was done through three stages, by determining whether: budget line was relevant or not to LGs; the identified budget line could be transferred directly to the LGs or not; and the budget line could be rationalized by the MDAs to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs. The exercise explicitly took a ‘prioritised’ approach to identify LG relevant budgets and did not exhaustively review each and every expenditure item within the national budget. The approach was to identify those sectors with decentralised functions as prescribed in the LG Act (schedule 2), which included: Agriculture, Education, Health, Social Development, Water and Environment, and Works and Transport.
Budget Allocation to LG programmes During FY 2019/20, UGX 3.6 trillion, which is 11 percent of the total national budget inclusive of domestic arrears and appropriation-in-aid, will be allocated to LG programmes through unconditional grants, conditional grants, equalisation grants, projects and donor funding. The education sector will take the highest amount at UGX 1.6 trillion; followed by public sector management at UGX 1.1 trillion; health at UGX 521 billion; works and transport at UGX 187 billion; agriculture at UGX 122 billion; water and environment at UGX 59 billion; social development at UGX 8 billion; and trade, industry and cooperatives at UGX 2 billion. These findings, corroborate with the Office of the Auditor General’s 2016 report which found that MDAs retain the biggest proportions of sector budget allocations despite devolving the responsibility of service delivery to LGs.

Budget Allocations to MDAs that are under LG MandateThis study found that UGX 1.066 trillion will be retained by various MDAs during FY 2019/20, yet these funds are supposed to be allocated to LGs as mandated under the Second Schedule of the LGA (CAP 243). The agriculture sector has the highest amount of funds retained by MDAs amounting to UGX 281.4 billion, followed by education and sports sector at UGX 257.2 billion, and health sector at UGX 217.8 billion. Others include water and environment sector at 196.4 billion, works and transport sector at UGX 96.1 billion and social development at UGX 17.1 billion. Over 65 percent of the retained budgets (funds) are financed through external funding. This is because external funding is a major source of development finance for development projects under management of MDAs. Government of Uganda development funds come second at 30 percent, non-wage and wage budgets are 3 percent and 2 percent respectively. In terms of shares, the agriculture sector has the highest share of the budget lines that should be re-allocated to LGs during FY 2019/20 at 28 percent. This is followed by, water and environment at 19 percent, health at 9 percent, social development and education at 8 percent, and works and transport at 1 percent.Out of the UGX 281.4 billion retained by the agriculture sector MDAs, UGX 209 billion are donor funds, UGX 64 billion are GoU development funds, and UGX 8.4 billion are non-wage funds. The crop resources directorate takes a lion’s share of the funds amounting to UGX 163.4 billion (58 percent), followed by the animal resources directorate at UGX 83.4 billion (30 percent). The rest of the funds amounting to UGX 34.6 billion (12 percent) are with Fisheries Resources; Policy, Planning and Support Services; Agriculture Infrastructure, Mechanization and Water for Agricultural Production; and Dairy Development Authority (DDA). Out of the UGX 257.2 billion retained by the education and sports sector MDAs, UGX 224 billion are donor funds, and UGX 31 billion are GoU development funds. Skills Development Directorate takes almost three quarters of the funds amounting to UGX 189.9 billion. This is followed by Pre-Primary and Primary Education Directorate at UGX 51.7 billion (20 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 15.6 billion (6 percent) are with Guidance and Counseling; Physical Education and Sports; Secondary Education; and Special Needs Education. Out of the UGX 217.8 billion retained by the health sector MDAs, UGX 170 billion are donor funds, UGX 9 billion are GoU development funds, UGX 13 billion are non-wage, and UGX 26 billion are wages. Health infrastructure and equipment takes almost the entire funds amounting to UGX 209.8 billion (96 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 8.0 billion are with Public Health Services.Out of the UGX 196.4 billion retained by the water and environment sector MDAs, UGX 77 billion are donor funds, UGX 117 billion are GoU development funds, and UGX 2 billion are non-wage. Rural Water Supply and Sanitation takes the biggest share of the funds retained amounting to UGX 96.3 billion (49 percent). This is followed by
xi

Water for Production at UGX 75.6 billion (38 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 24.5 billion (12 percent) are with Natural Resources Management; Urban Water Supply and Sanitation; and Water Resources Management.The works and transport sector budget funds retained by the MDAs amounts to UGX 96 billion, and the entire funds are GoU development funds. District, urban and community access roads takes the entire funds retained amounting to UGX 95.5 billion. The rest of funds amounting to UGX 0.6 billion are with Transport Services and Infrastructure.Out of the UGX 17.1 billion retained by the Social Development sector MDAs, UGX 13 billion are donor funds, UGX 2.3 billion are GoU development funds, and UGX 1.8 billion are non-wage. Promotion of descent employment takes the biggest share of the funds retained amounting to UGX 9.9 billion (58 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 7.2 billion (42 percent) are with gender, equality and women’s empowerment; and social protection for vulnerable groups.
Budget Allocations to MDAs that can be Rationalized This study found that UGX 530.2 billion budgeted for various MDAs, can be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs. The funds proposed for rationalization are not necessarily relevant to LGs (i.e. prescribed in the LGs Act (schedule 2)), but are large amounts of funds allocated under mainly government buildings and administrative infrastructure; monitoring, supervision and evaluation; purchase of specialised machinery and equipment; and purchase of motor vehicles and other transport equipment; among others.The agriculture sector has the highest funds amounting to UGX 177.5 billion, followed by water and environment sector at 126.1 billion; health sector at UGX 101 billion; education and sports sector at UGX 86.3 billion; social development at UGX 22.88 billion; and works and transport sector at UGX 16.5 billion. Over 51 percent of the budgets that can be rationalized are donor funds. Government of Uganda development funds are second at 26 percent, non-wage and wage budget are 20 percent and 3 percent respectively. In terms of shares, the Agriculture sector has the highest share of its budget that should be rationalized at 18 percent; followed by water and environment at 12 percent, social development at 10 percent, health at 4 percent, education and sports at 3 percent, and works and transport at 0.3 percent.
Recommendations In line with the above-mentioned findings, we recommend the following:a. Parliament and MoFPED should re-allocate UGX 1.01 trillion which is budgeted/
allocated to various MDAs because these funds are supposed to be allocated to LGs as mandated under the Second Schedule of the LGA (CAP 243).
xii

b. Parliament, MoFPED and MDAs should rationalize UGX 530.2 billion budgeted by various MDAs on certain expenditures to free funds for LGs.
c. MoLG, LGFC, and MoFPED should implement the Fiscal Decentralisation Strategy to reduce the number of grants and evolve the system in a manner that will ensure consistency, autonomy, predictability and adequacy to meet the minimum costs of service delivery by LGs.
d. MoLG, LGFC, and ULGA should ensure that LGs are represented in negotiations with development partners when negotiating external assistance that are intended to support the decentralised services.
e. Parliament and MoFPED should amend the Public Finance Management Act (2015) to require the MoFPED to provide separate medium term financing plan for local government service delivery along with the national medium term expenditure plan.

1.0 INTRODUCTION This report presents the findings of a study commissioned by the Advocates Coalition for Development and Environment (ACODE) to analyse the proposed national budget allocations for FY 2019/20 to ascertain budgetary allocations that should be implemented by the Local Governments but retained by Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), and recommend for reallocation to LGs with a view of influencing the final budget allocations. This section outlines the background to the study, the problem, the rationale of the study, and the specific objectives. 1.1 Background and Rationale of the StudyGovernment of Uganda embraced the policy of decentralisation by devolution, which recognises local governments as frontline actors in the provision of services to the citizens. This policy shift is well enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 1995 (as amended), and the Local Governments Act (CAP 243). According to Article 191 of the Constitution and Sec 80 of the LGA (CAP 243), LGs are required to prepare their own development plans and budgets, mobilise revenues locally to facilitate funding for recurrent and development expenditure for service delivery.The Central Government in accordance with Article 193 of the Constitution is required to provide grants to LGs in three categories, namely: (i) Unconditional grants, which are the minimum grants paid to LGs to run decentralised services (ii) Conditional grants that are given to LGs to finance programmes agreed upon between the central government and the local governments, and (iii) Equalisation grants that are given to those LGs lagging behind the national average standards in service delivery. However, there is widespread concern that LG financing is not sufficient to meet the level of demand for service delivery. Reports have shown that there has been a decline in transfers from central Government to LGs, in relative and per capita terms. For example, according to approved budget estimates the share of the national budget allocated to LG programmes reduced to 10 percent in FY2018/19 from 13 percent in 2016/17. The decline is largely attributed to recentralisation of functions and resources which by law are mandated to LGs. Research has shown that recentralisation of previously decentralised functions has had a negative impact on service delivery, accountability and citizen empowerment, and also increased financial dependency of LGs (Lwanga, 2016). In November 2018, ACODE in partnership with the Uganda Local Governments’ Association (ULGA) and the Parliament of Ugandan organised a national dialogue under the Local Government Parliamentary Forum (LoGPF). The dialogue was intended to promote interface between Parliament and LGs in order to influence the national policy agenda for enhanced accountability from both national and LG levels. The decreasing trends in LG financing emerged as one of the key issues that negatively impacted services delivery and effectiveness of decentralisation in Uganda.

It is upon this background that ACODE commissioned this study to analyse the proposed budget allocations for FY 2019/20 to ascertain budgetary allocations that should be implemented by the LGs but retained by MDAs, and recommend for reallocation to LGs with a view of influencing the final budget allocations. This report, therefore, presents the findings of the budget analysis. It is intended to stimulate and offer evidence to the Parliamentary Committees to re-allocate public money from the MDAs to the LGs. The report gives a detailed analysis of the budget allocations that end up being retained by the MDAs but may be re-allocated to LGs to enable them deliver on their mandate and enhance service delivery in the country.
1.2 Objectives of the Study a) To analyse and identify budget lines allocated to MDAs that should be re-allocated
to LGs in FY 2019/20 Budget, and b) To recommend to Parliament, Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic
Development (MoFPED); Ministry of Local Government (MoLG) and the Local Government Finance Commission (LGFC) to cause re-allocation of money retained by MDAs in contravention of the legal establishment.

2.0 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGYThe study adopted a mixed approach combining qualitative and quantitative techniques in order to enhance the validity of the findings.
2.1 Data Collection and AnalysisThe study relied mainly on an extensive document review which included a critical review of the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 1995 (as amended); LGA (CAP, 1997 (as amended); Draft Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure (Recurrent and Development) FY 2019/20; the National Budget Framework Paper FY 2019/20; the Sector Budget Framework Papers for FY 2019/20; Ministerial Policy Statements FY 2019/20; Sector Investment Plans for Agriculture, Health, Education, Water, Environment and Natural Resources, Roads and Social Development; Budget Performance Reports; Auditor General’s Reports; and the Budget Call Circulars. These documents were analysed and critiqued to answer the study objective (s).
2.2 Approach to identifying budget lines meant for LGsOverall, the methodology aimed to classify relevant budget allocations through three stages, by determining whether: (i) the budget line was relevant or not to LGs i.e. contained in the LGA Schedule 2; (ii) the identified budget line could be transferred directly or not to the LGs; and (iii) the budget line could be rationalized or not by the MDAs to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs. The exercise explicitly took a ‘prioritised’ approach to identifying LG relevant budgets and did not exhaustively review each and every expenditure item within the national budget. The approach was to identify those sectors with decentralised functions as prescribed in the LG Act (schedule 2), and then drills down into the details of sector budgets in order to identify and categorise budget lines that can be re-allocated to LGs.Box 1: Criteria used in identifying budget lines meant for LGs.a) Selected sectors with decentralised functions as prescribed in the LGs Act (schedule
2) i.e. agriculture, education, health, water & environment, works& transport, and social development).
b) Identified budget lines within sector budgets which fall under the mandate of LGs as prescribed in the LG Act (schedule 2) but allocated to MDAs.
c) Analysed the budget lines under (b) to obtain the aggregate amount of funds to be allocated to LGs.
d) Identified budget lines which are not necessarily relevant to LGs, but contain large amounts of funds, which can be rationalized to free funds for LGs.
e) Analysed the budget lines under (d) to obtain the aggregate amount of funds that can be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free resources to LGs.
Figure 1 shows a summary stylized view of the process. As can be seen, where issues of classification are uncertain, further investigation is undertaken in order to determine the exact nature of the budget item. This involved a detailed review of the
4
Financing Local Governments in Uganda: An analysis of Proposed National Budget FY 2019/20 and Proposals for Re-allocation
relevant Ministerial Policy Statements that outline the spending plans of the MDAs in more detail.Once the relevant MDAs were identified, the analysis moved to a detailed review of the individual programmes, sub-programmes and outputs within each MDA’s budget. Since the budget is very brief, it was relatively easy for the team to review and exclude certain items from the expenditure analysis on the basis that they were not related to LGs (e.g. ‘Rural Water Supply and Sanitation’). Where budget items were less clear in their relationship to LG -relevant activities, further investigation was undertaken. The first reference point was the Ministerial Policy Statements which contain more information on the activities of the MDAs concerned, including detail on the programmes being implemented. Using this information, it was possible to finalize the decision as to whether budget items were relevant or not to LGs.

Source: Authors
The study team identified budget lines which are not necessarily relevant to LGs, but contain large amounts of funds. These are mainly: Government buildings and administrative infrastructure; monitoring, supervision and Evaluation; Purchase of Specialised Machinery and Equipment; and Purchase of motor vehicles and other transport equipment; among others. These budget lines can be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free funds that may be allocated to LGs. In this study, we define rationalization to mean actions of making government budget more efficient by allocating funds to areas which have greater impact on service delivery.

2.3 Scope of the Study The analysis focused on sectors with decentralised component of service delivery, that is, agriculture, education, health, social development; water and environment, and works and transport. The analysis covered the FY 2019/20 and where relevant compared with FY 2018/19. 2.4 Limitations of the Study Firstly, the analysis did not include public sector management mainly because of its less relevance to service delivery at LG level. The analysis of donor funds could not establish which proportions of the funds were grants or loans. This was mainly due to lack of detailed information in the budget and sector documents. Secondly, most of the Ministerial Policy Statements for FY 2019/20 lacked detailed information that would further enrich the study. Thirdly, time constraints could also not allow the researchers to consult and/or interview the relevant MDA officials to give more insights on the budget lines. However, despite these limitations the criteria and data used in this analysis were sufficient to give credible recommendations.

3.0 FINDINGS 3.1 Overview of the FY 2019/20 National Budget The budget strategy for FY 2019/20 focuses on increasing the growth of the economy and achieving inclusive growth. This is consistent with the medium term budget theme of ‘Industrialisation for Job Creation and Shared Prosperity’. The total proposed budget for FY 2019/20 was UGX 38.95 trillion. Figure 2 shows sector allocations inclusive of domestic arrears and appropriation-in-aid.1 Interest Payments takes the biggest share of the budget of UGX 10.00 trillion (25.7 percent), followed by Works and Transport sector at UGX 6.41 trillion (16.4 percent), Security at UGX 3.61 trillion (9.3 percent), Education at UGX 3.29 trillion (8.4 percent) and Energy at UGX 2.95 trillion (7.6 percent). Other sectors, apart from Education and Works, that have a direct bearing to service delivery at Local Government level such as Health, Agriculture, Water and Environment, and Social Development were respectively proposed to be allocated UGX 2.53 trillion (6.5 percent), 1.01 trillion (2.6 percent), UGX 1.04 trillion (2.7 percent), and UGX 219 billion (0.6 percent).
3.2 Budget Allocation to LG programmes The analysis of the proposed budget FY 2019/20, shows that UGX 3.6 trillion, which is 11 percent of the total national budget inclusive of domestic arrears and appropriation-in-aid will be allocated to LG programmes. This clearly shows that a small component
1 Appropriation-in-aid is income that a government department is authorized to retain and spend at source, rather than surrender to the Consolidated Fund.

of the national budget is allocated towards LGs programmes. The funds are provided through unconditional grants, conditional grants, equalisation grants, projects and donor funding. As shown in Figure 3, the education sector will take the highest amount at UGX 1.6 trillion, mainly to due to the large wage component for teachers’ salaries. The education sector will be followed by public sector management at UGX 1.1 trillion; health at UGX 521 billion; works and transport at UGX 187 billion; agriculture at UGX 122 billion; water and environment at UGX 59 billion; social development at UGX 8 billion; and trade industry and cooperatives at UGX 2 billion. It should be noted that 57 percent (UGX 2.032 trillion) of the budget allocated for LG programmes is for wages.
Figure 3: Proposed 2019/20 National Budget Allocations for LG programmes (UGX Bn)

In terms of share of the total sector budget, education has the highest amount of the sector budget allocated to LG programmes standing at 50 percent followed by health at 21 percent, agriculture at 12 percent; water and environment at 6 percent; social development at 3.5 percent and works and transport sector at 3 percent (see figure 4). The education and health sectors’ relatively large shares are mainly on account of their high wage bills.

3.3 Budget Allocations to MDAs that are under LG MandateThis study focused on the MDAs under the six sectors of agriculture, health, education, water and environment, works and transport, and social development. During the FY 2019/20, the six sectors will receive a total of UGX 14.5 trillion (45 percent of the total national budget). The works and transport sector takes the biggest share of UGX 6.4 trillion (44 percent), followed by education at UGX 3.3 trillion (22.7 percent), and health at UGX 2.5 trillion (17 percent). Other sectors under our scope of analysis such as agriculture, water and environment, and social development will respectively receive 1.01 trillion (7 percent), UGX 1.04 trillion (7.2 percent), and UGX 219 billion (1.5 percent). It should be noted that these figures are inclusive of domestic arrears and appropriation-in-aid. The respective sector budgets exclusive of the two items above are: works and transport (UGX 6.24 trillion), education (UGX 2.85 trillion), health (UGX 2.43 trillion), water and environment (UGX 996.7 billion), agriculture (UGX 822.4 billion), and social development (UGX 180.1 billion). The sector budgets are supposed to be spent at both national and local government levels. LGs are the implementers of the government programmes within their jurisdiction whereas the MDAs are mandated with mainly policy formulation, regulation, setting national standards, coordination, monitoring, supervision, and provision of technical support to LGs in the implementation of programmes. Thus, the largest amount sector of budgets ought to be spent by LGs. However, the 2016 report by the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) found that MDAs retain the biggest proportions of sector budget allocations despite devolving the responsibility of service delivery to LGs (OAG, 2016). The report pointed out the sectors of water and environment, works and

transport, agriculture and health retained on average more than 80 percent of sector allocations at the centre. This is confirmed by the findings as presented in Figure 4. Under this sub-section we unearth and present the amount of funds that are meant to be appropriated directly to LGs, but instead are retained / allocated to MDAs contrary to the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda 1995 (as amended) and LGA (CAP 243). We are cognizant of the fact that most MDAs activities are eventually implemented at the local government level directly or indirectly (through LGs). However, the agency which controls the budget (funds) matters. The current practice of MDAs controlling the budget (funds) has undesirable implications on service delivery as elaborated in the preceding sections.After a careful analysis of the FY 2019/20 budget allocations to the six sectors under review, this study found that UGX 1.066 trillion will be retained by various MDAs, yet these funds are supposed to be allocated to LGs as mandated under the Second Schedule of the LGA (CAP 243). As shown in Figure 5, the agriculture sector has the highest amount of retained funds by MDAs amounting to UGX 281.4 billion, followed by education and sports sector at UGX 257.2 billion, and health sector at UGX 217.8 billion. Others include water and environment sector at 196.4 billion, works and transport sector at UGX 96.1 billion and social development at UGX 17.1 billion.

Health; 217.8

Works; 96.1
Social Development; 17.1
In terms of composition, 65 percent of the retained budgets (funds) are donor funds. This is mainly because most projects the MDAs are implementing are funded by donors. Government of Uganda development funds are second at 30 percent, non-wage and wage budgets are 3 percent and 2 percent respectively (see Table 1). It should be noted that donor funds have a wage and non-wage components, which this study was not be able to analyse.

3.3.1 Agriculture Sector As noted in the preceding sub-section, the agriculture sector has the highest amount budget funds retained by the centre that could be re-allocated to the LGs standing at UGX 281.4 billion, of which UGX 209 billion are donor funds, UGX 64 billion are GoU development funds, and UGX 8.4 billion are non-wage funds (see Figure 7).

Financing Local Governments in Uganda: An analysis of Proposed National Budget FY 2019/20 and Proposals for Re-allocation
As shown in Table 2, the crop resources directorate takes a lion’s share of the funds retained by the agriculture sector that could be re-allocated to the LGs amounting to UGX 163.4 billion (58 percent) followed by the animal resources directorate at UGX 83.4 billion (30 percent); the rest of funds amounting to UGX 34.6 billion (12 percent) are with fisheries resources; policy, planning and support services; agriculture infrastructure, mechanisation and water for agricultural production; and Dairy Development Authority (DDA). Details on the distribution of agriculture sector budget proposed for re-allocation to LGs are contained in Appendix IV.

Financing Local Governments in Uganda: An analysis of Proposed National Budget FY 2019/20 and Proposals for Re-allocation
As shown in Table 3, skills development directorate takes almost three quarters of the funds retained by the sector that could be re-allocated to the LGs amounting to UGX 189.9 billion followed by pre-primary and primary education directorate at UGX 51.7 billion (20 percent); the rest of funds amounts to UGX 15.6 billion (6 percent) are with guidance and counseling; physical education and sports; secondary education; and special needs education. Details on the distribution of education and sports sector budget proposed for re-allocation to LGs are contained in Appendix V.

Financing Local Governments in Uganda: An analysis of Proposed National Budget FY 2019/20 and Proposals for Re-allocation
3.3.3 Health sector The health sector budget funds retained by the MDAs that could be re-allocated to the LGs stand at UGX 217.8 billion, of which UGX 170 billion are donor funds, UGX 9 billion are GoU development funds, UGX 13 billion are non-wage, and UGX 26 billion are wages (see Figure 9).
Figure 9: Health sector budget proposed for re-allocation to LGs
Source: Authors’ calculations based on the proposed FY 2019/20 National Budget
As shown in Table 4, Health infrastructure and equipment takes almost the entire funds retained by the sector that could be re-allocated to the LGs amounting to UGX 209.8 billion (96 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 8.0 billion are with Public Health Services. Details on the distribution of Health sector budget proposed for re-allocation to LGs are contained in Appendix VI.

Information in the works and transport sector budget framework paper for FY 2019/20 shows that emphasis in the coming financial year will be put on upgrading national roads from gravel to tarmac (400km), rehabilitation of national roads (332.4km), and construction of 58 bridges. Although rehabilitation of some 1,000km of the District, Urban and Community Access Roads (DUCAR) network in selected districts is mentioned, resource allocation to LGs does not match the proposed targets.

As shown in Table 7, Promotion of descent employment takes the biggest share of the funds retained by the sector that could be re-allocated to the LGs amounting to UGX 9.9 billion (58 percent). The rest of funds amounting to UGX 7.2 billion (42 percent) are with gender, equality and women’s empowerment; and social protection for vulnerable groups. Details on the distribution of social development sector budget proposed for re-allocation to LGs are contained in Appendix IX.

3.4 Budget Allocations to MDAs that can be Rationalized Under this sub-section we unearth and present the amount of funds that can be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs. After a careful analysis of the FY 2019/20 budget allocations to the six sectors under review, this study found that UGX 530.2 billion budgeted by various MDAs, can be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs. As shown in Figure 12, the agriculture sector has the highest funds available amounting to UGX 177.5 billion, followed by water and environment sector at 126.1billion, health sector at UGX 101billion, education and sports sector at UGX 86.3 billion, social development at UGX 22.88 billion and works and transport sector at UGX 16.5 billion. Details on the sector budgets proposed for rationalization are contained in Appendix X.

In terms of composition, 51 percent of the budgets that can be rationalized are donor funds. Government of Uganda development funds are second at 26 percent, non-wage and wage budget are 20 percent and 3 percent respectively (see Table 8). It should be noted that donor funds have a wage and non-wage component, which this study was not able to analyse.

Further analysis shows that the agriculture sector has the highest share of its budget that should be rationalized to improve service delivery and also free funds for LGs during FY 2019/19 at 18 percent followed by water and environment at 12 percent, social development at 10 percent; health at 4 percent; education and sports at 3 percent, and works and transport at 0.3 percent (see Figure 13).

3.5 Justifications for re-allocation of funds from MDAs to LGs The proposed re-allocations of the FY 2019/20 national budget from MDAs to LGs are grounded in existing legal and policy frameworks as enshrined in the Constitution the LGA (CAP 243) and the Decentralisation Policy. Worth noting is that the sixth schedule of the Constitution limited the central government’s functions to indivisible and non-excludable public functions such as defence, security, law and order, National policy formulation, setting national standards, coordination, monitoring, supervision and guidance. Whereas, the LGA (second Schedule) provides for the functions and services for which district and urban councils are responsible subject to article 176 (2) of the Constitution, and Sections 96 and 97 of the LGA. The schedule lists, among others, medical and health services, education services, water services, road services, and agricultural extension services. Thus, the LGA (second Schedule) provides the legal basis which the authors of this paper used to propose re-allocation of funds from MDAs to LGs as shown in Table 9. Details are provided in Appendices II and III.

Source: Authors’ based on the LG Act (CAP, 243) (Second Schedule)
In addition, research and audit reports have shown that poor fiscal devolution and/or recentralisation of previously decentralised functions has had a negative impact on service delivery, accountability and citizen empowerment, and also increased financial dependency of LGs, which does not foster good governance (Lwanga, 2016). The Auditor General’s report of 2016, found that MDAs retain the biggest proportions of sector budget allocations despite devolving the responsibility of service delivery to LGs (OAG, 2016). Other studies have found that most MDAs that receive substantial budget allocations are more embroiled in ‘mandate wars’ among and between themselves, which has led to persistence of gaps in public service delivery.The Government of Uganda launched the Local Economic Development (LED) Policy in 2014, which aims at increasing business support to local investors, enhance growth of private sector investment in LGs, and increasing locally generated revenue by LGs. To actualize the implementation of this policy, LGs will require substantial amount of funds some of which are retained by various MDAs as shown section 3.3.

4.0 Conclusions and Recommendations4.1 ConclusionFinancing of LGs is critical to the success of decentralisation policy in Uganda. However, the current level of LG financing is not sufficient to meet the level of demand for service delivery. There has been a decline in transfers from Central Government to LGs, in relative and per capita terms attributed to recentralisation of functions and resources which by law are mandated to LGs. This study found that that UGX 1.066 trillion will be retained by various MDAs, yet these funds are supposed to be allocated to LGs as mandated under the Second Schedule of the LGA (CAP 243).
4.2 Recommendations In line with the above-mentioned findings, we recommend the following:Recommendations Responsible
PartyReallocate UGX 1.066 trillion which is budgeted / allocated to various MDAs. These funds are supposed to be allocated to LGs as mandated under the Second Schedule of the LGA (CAP 243). These funds should be re-allocated from the following sectors as follows: 1.1 Agriculture, UGX 281.4 Bn 1.2 Education, UGX 257.2 Bn1.3 Health, UGX 217.8 Bn1.4 Social Development, UGX 17.1 Bn1.5 Water and Environment, UGX 196.4Bn1.6 Works and Transport, UGX 96.1 Bn
Parliament and MoFPED
Rationalize UGX 530.2 billion budgeted by various MDAs on certain expenditures to free funds for LGs. These funds should be rationalized from the following sectors as follows:1.7 Agriculture, UGX 177.5 Bn1.8 Education, UGX 86.3 Bn1.9 Health, UGX 101.0 Bn1.10 Social Development, UGX 22.8 Bn 1.11 Water and Environment, UGX 126.1 Bn1.12 Works and Transport, UGX 16.5 Bn
Parliament, MoFPED and MDAs
MoFPED should work with the sector ministries to establish the unit cost of delivery of delegated services at LGs in order to facilitate proper planning and resource allocation.
MoFPED, & PPDA
The current projects and other sector grant disbursements made directly to LGs should be integrated into the formal grant system in a transparent and equitable distribution manner.
MoFPED, &LGFC
Implement the Fiscal Decentralisation Strategy to reduce the number of grants and evolve the system in a manner that will ensure consistency, autonomy, predictability and adequacy to meet the minimum costs of service delivery by LGs.
MoLG, LGFC, & MoFPED
