The report is organized in seven chapters. Chapter 1 discusses the macro challenges Uganda faces and how these are linked to fiscal considerations. Macrostability has largely been achieved with satisfactory growth rates higher than in the previous year. But the unprecedented terms of trade shock has resulted in the decline of total receipts from exports. The reduction of foreign exchange revenues in combination with lower revenue collections has led to fiscal constraints. Chapter 2 notes the need to ensure stakeholder contribution to the budget process and to improve quality of budget planning, choices, and predictability. Chapter 3 analyzes the health, education, and water and sanitation sectors and describes the great progress made in aloocative efficiency --although these sectors are experiencing major challenges in achieving operational efficiency. Chapter 4 discusses how the government has "commitment control systems (CCSs)" to address the problem of arrears. Chapter 5 identifies how Uganda uses tracking systems to identify problems in flow of funds. Chapter 6 discusses the growing challenges for budget preparation, execution, and monitoring at the local government level. Chapter 7 draws conclusions.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABSOLUTE POVERTYACCOUNTABILITYACCOUNTINGAGRICULTURAL SECTORALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCYANALYTICAL WORKAPPROPRIATIONSAUDITINGAUTHORITYBALANCE OF PAYMENTSBANKING INDUSTRYBORROWINGBUDGET ALLOCATIONSBUDGET DEFICITBUDGET EXECUTIONBUDGET MANAGEMENTBUDGET MONITORINGBUDGET PERFORMANCEBUDGET PROCESSBUDGET PROPOSALSBUDGET REFORMBUDGET REFORMSBUDGETARY PROCESSESCAPACITY BUILDINGCIVIL SOCIETYCOMMERCIAL BANKSCOMPARATIVE ADVANTAGECONCESSIONAL LOANSCONSULTATIVE MANNERCORRUPTIONCREDIT SCHEMESCURRENCY UNITDEBTDEBT MANAGEMENTDEBT RELIEFDEVELOPMENT GOALSDEVELOPMENT PARTNERSDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMSDISTRICTSDONOR RESOURCESECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC GROWTH RATESECONOMIC MANAGEMENTECONOMIC PERFORMANCEECONOMIC POLICIESELECTRICITYENACTMENTEXCHANGE RATEEXCHANGE RATESEXTERNAL DEBTFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL MARKETSFINANCIAL SECTORFISCALFISCAL DECENTRALIZATIONFISCAL DEFICITFISCAL DISCIPLINEFISCAL PERFORMANCEFISCAL POLICYFISCAL STANCEFISCAL YEARFISHFOREIGN EXCHANGEFOREIGN INVESTMENTGOVERNANCEGOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTSGOVERNMENT EFFORTSGOVERNMENT EXPENDITURESGOVERNMENT PROGRAMSGOVERNMENT REVENUEGOVERNMENT STRATEGYGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTGROWTH RATEHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN RESOURCEHUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENTIMPORTSINCOMEINCOME TAXESINFLATIONINFORMAL SECTORINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTEREST RATESINTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONSINTERGOVERNMENTAL SYSTEMLEGISLATURELEVELS OF GOVERNMENTLOCAL GOVERNMENTLOCAL GOVERNMENT AUTONOMYLOCAL GOVERNMENTSMACROECONOMIC PERFORMANCEMACROECONOMIC STABILITYMANAGEMENT CAPACITYMARKET PRICESMINISTRY OF FINANCEMONITORINGPOLICY CHOICESPOLICY RESEARCHPOOR COUNTRIESPOVERTY ASSESSMENTPOVERTY ERADICATIONPOVERTY ERADICATION ACTION PLANPOVERTY ISSUESPOVERTY LEVELSPOVERTY MONITORINGPOVERTY REDUCTIONPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGYPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY HEALTH CAREPRIORITY AREASPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATIZATIONPRODUCERSPRUDENTIAL REGULATIONSPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONPUBLIC DEBTPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE MANAGEMENTPUBLIC EXPENDITURE REVIEWPUBLIC EXPENDITURESPUBLIC FINANCEPUBLIC SPENDINGREAL TERMSREPRESENTATIVESRESOURCE CONSTRAINTSREVENUE COLLECTIONREVENUE GRANTSREVENUE GROWTHREVENUE PERFORMANCERURAL AREASSECTOR WORKINGSERVICE DELIVERYTASK TEAM LEADERTAXTAX ADMINISTRATIONTAX REVENUETAX REVENUESTEAM MEMBERSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETIME FRAMETRANSPARENCYTREASURYWAGES PUBLIC EXPENDITURESBUDGET REFORMFISCAL SUSTAINABILITYMACROECONOMIC ANALYSISBUDGET PROCESSBUDGET IMPLEMENTATIONBUDGET MONITORINGALLOCATION OF RESOURCESPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONDECENTRALIZATIONHUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENTMONITORING OF STATE FINANCESINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYCAPACITY BUILDINGLOCAL GOVERNMENTAUTONOMYGOVERNMENT ACCOUNTINGINTERGOVERNMENTAL FISCAL RELATIONSINTERGOVERNMENTAL TRANSFER OF FUNDSINTERGOVERNMENTAL TAX RELATIONSPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGIESHEALTH EXPENDITURESEDUCATIONAL FINANCINGHEALTH SERVICE DELIVERYIMMUNIZATIONACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROMEREPRODUCTIVE HEALTHEQUITY IN EDUCATIONACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICESACCESS TO WATERSANITATION SERVICESNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSWorld Bank10.1596/15336
