the Presidency detailing the planned outputs and activities and Budget Estimates for the Financial Year

The Vision of the Presidency remains: "A secure, well governed and developed nation" and the five (05)

Votes under the Presidency have continued to execute their mandates and deliver outputs geared towards

accountability; coordinating the HIV/AIDS national multi sectoral response, and mobilization of citizens

to participate in the Socio-Economic Transformation and Development of Uganda in line with Uganda's

Rt. Hon. Speaker and Honourable Members, I wish to report that as you might have noted from the three

quarterly reports that we submitted for this Financial Year, the resources that this august House voted for

the Presidency were utilized in line with the plans that you approved with minor adjustments caused by

budgetary constraints. I therefore take this opportunity to invite your guidance regarding the planned

activities for the Financial Year 2014/15.

I would like to register my appreciation to the Hon. Speaker, the Hon. Minister for Finance, Planning and

Economic Development, the Hon. Chairpersons and Members of the Parliamentary Committee on

Structure of the Ministerial Policy Statement

The Ministerial Policy Statement is structured by Vote, as follows:

This section sets out past performance and future plans for Central and Local Government Votes in

more detail. It is structured as follows for each Vote: A Vote Overview sets out key details of the

vote, including past performance, future plans and key performance issues to be addressed including

costing implications.

Each Minister shall cause to be prepared and submitted to Parliament a Policy Statement of the relevant

Ministry on the preliminary [budget] estimates .... by the 30th day of June in each year. Budget Act 2001,

Section 6 (1)

Structure

Since the FY2011/12 budget cycle, the preparation of sector BFPs, Ministerial Policy Statements and

Budget Estimates centre around the notion of Vote Functions. A Vote Function is a set of programmes,

projects, and Local Government Grants, defining the roles and responsibilities of a vote/institution, and

contributing towards the attainment of vote and overall sector objectives.

As such, a Vote Function provides detailed information on centralised services, by capturing allocations to

Central Ministries and Stand Alone Votes, and decentralised services funded via grants to Local

Governments

Provides details of approved staff structure for each programme and project (including names of staff

and vacant posts). This is clearly demonstrated in the form of an organogram.

was coordinated especially through enlisting support from cultural and other Institutions; while the National

Ethical Values Policy was approved and launched.

In a bid to strengthen the monitoring of the implementation of government programs and projects, the

Presidency organized one induction/orientation workshop for all Resident District Commissioners and their

Deputies and a number of resolutions were made aimed at improving capacity to enforce better service

delivery. New Boards and Committees were appointed. A new Board of Directors was constituted for the

Uganda Printing and Publishing Corporation; while the mandates of the Board of the Uganda AIDS

Commission and the Presidential Awards Committee were renewed with some new appointments. Also, the

National Honours and Awards Regulations, 2013 were published. The Uganda Media Centre has continued

to coordinate the provision of factual information concerning government policies and programmes within

and abroad.

Planned outputs for 2014/15

our territorial integrity.

The Presidency will engage all Ministries, Departments and Agencies with a view to agree on the

mechanisms for the involvement of RDCs/DRDCs in the monitoring of implementation of government

programmes In their respective districts. Related to the above, the MDAs are being urged to avail copies to

RDCs/DRDCs of all the contracts and progress reports of all programmes and projects being Implemented

in the districts to ensure proper and timely dissemination of information to the citizens. A three-year

framework through synergies and collaborative arrangements with other key organs of Government.
