equity, and gender parity. (vi) Facilitate children in Laroo School for War affected children The sector continued to provide operational support and disbursed funds to 624 war affected children and 4 traumatised children. The Belgianfunded government school which opened its doors in 2006 serves child survivors of the 23year insurgency of the Lord Resistance Army (LRA). The school only caters for classes P.1 to P.6. (vii) Construction and rehabilitation of primary schools Under the Emergency Construction and Rehabilitation of Primary schools project, 38 schools were identified and 18 schools received funds for the construction, rehabilitation and provision of furniture. These schools among others include: Bujubi P.S in Mityana; Bugwe P.S and Namutumba C/U P.S in Namutumba; St. Thomas Catholic P.S in Bweyogerere; St. Aloysius Bukasa; Bbale Waswa P.S; and Kasengejje P.S in Wakiso; Kagina P.S in Kabale; Kichekano P.S in Isingiro; Namukunyu P.S and Nawanyago P.S in Kamuli; and St. Joseph Day and Boarding P.S Nazigo; Kirowozo C/U; and Nakabalanga P.S in Mukono; Bundikahungu P.S in Bundibugyo; Kalububbu P.S in Sembabule; Patto P.S in Sironko; and Kigalagala P.S in Jinja; (viii) Under SFG/PRDP and Presidential Pledges Programmes A total budgetary provision of 71.4bn was earmarked for the implementation of various infrastructural developments in all Local Governments including all divisions. Tables 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 show the progress of works for SFG Normal and SFG/PRDP during the period under review.

The main challenges encountered during the implementation of these civil works include among others; Sites in hard to reach areas do not attract bidders, hence the need for re advertisements which slows down progress; High Inflation levels affected the progress of the civil works due to increase in prices for fuel, local and manufacturing materials; The long bureaucratic procurement process required by PPDA coupled with the need for the Solicitor General to approve works of Ugx 50m and above leads to late commencement of work; Funds for Presidential Pledges are disbursed along with those of SFG on a quarterly basis. In most cases these works are awarded at the end of the financial year after the budgetary allocation has accumulated; The Indicative planning figures communicated by Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES), Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development (MoFPED), and Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) and in the Output Budgeting Tool (OBT) in most cases do not tally. This leaves confusion in Local Governments as to which exact figure to use while planning; Whereas the Local Governments were instructed to submit separate work plans for SFG normal, Lined Pit Latrines, Construction of teachers’ houses in hardtoreach areas and SFG/ PRDP, some have continued to combine their workplans making it difficult to attach the outputs for the different programmes; Some Local Governments under SFG/PRDP have continued to plan for works/facilities outside those recommended. For example, in Agago, Manafwa and Bududa, part of their funds were used to construct the District Administration blocks, DEO’s office and purchase of a Pickup respectively. While for Kole District they purchased 2 Laptops, 1 desk computer, 1 Photocopier and 1 Honda diesel. Our field officers (Engineering Assistants) neither supervise these works nor certify them for payment as they are sidelined by the districts; During the monitoring exercises carried out by the centre, it has been identified that some contractors especially in the Local Governments benefiting both under SFG Normal and SFG/PRDP programme are overwhelmed by the number of contracts won within the same period which are beyond their capacity. They get contracts not only in the Education sector, but cut across all other sectors. As a result; some works are delayed as they cross over to different sites in a bid to balance up; In some areas, sites are abandoned by contractors, yet they cannot be terminated due to the long procedure of termination of a contract hence affecting the progress of work; The continuous annual budget cuts experienced by Local Governments on their ceilings is a challenge as activities are rolled over to the following year and moreover with the same contract prices notwithstanding the inflation effect. This leaves some sites being abandoned and left incomplete; During the rainy seasons some sites in some districts become inaccessible until the dry season is on; and, With the use of lined pit latrines, a strategy for the processes of emptying these pit latrines should be put in place by the Ministry. (ix) Licensing and Registering of private primary schools During the period under review, 225 and 130 Early Childhood Development Centres and primary schools were licensed and registered respectively in an effort to increase access.
