9 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This five Year Development Plan was prepared by Kyenjojo District Local Council in accordance with the provisions of Section 36 (3) of the Local Governments ACT, CAP 243 under the guidance of new national planning frame work (NDP). The Development Plan is being prepared for five years that is 2010/ /2015. I wish to extend special gratitude to the Executive Committee of the District Local Council for its guidance in the development of this plan. Iam grateful to the Government of Uganda, Donors, Sectoral Committees, the District Technical Planning Committee (DPTC), Development Partners and other stakeholders for their technical in put into this plan. Special mention must be made to the members of the District Technical Planning Committee and the District Planning Unit in particular. Iam also very grateful to Kyenjojo District Local Government and Government of Uganda for their financial assistance, which has made it possible to produce this development plan. Lastly, I wish to acknowledge with appreciation the valuable information provided by lower local councils for their input and active participation in preparation of this document. I ask all stakeholders and partners concerned with the development of Kyenjojo District to unwaveringly support the implementation of this Development Plan Samuel Katehangwa CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER ix

10 FOREWORD The Local Government Act CAP 243 devolved planning powers to Local Councils in their areas of jurisdiction. It is in accordance with this statutory requirement that this five year (2010/ /2015) District Development Plan has been prepared. The overall goal of this plan is to provide quality services at the least cost to the people of Kyenjojo District so as to improve their quality of life. This five year rolling Development Plan has been developed in a holistic approach, based on the situational analysis, goals, objectives, strategies and activities to be implemented all over the District. It has taken into account the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) and livelihood/well being analysis of the people. The priorities for Kyenjojo District focus on poverty eradication and Government Vision of Prosperity for All. These include; 1. Education (primary) and sports 2. Primary Health Care 3. Production and Environmental Protection 4. Works and Infrastructure 5. Water and Sanitation 6. Functional Adult Literacy 7. Security and Disaster Management 8. Vulnerable and the Special Interest Groups. Development calls for joint effort by all parties in the formulation and implementation of policies. The involvement of political leaders in data analysis, identification of goals, objectives, strategies and formulation of the District priorities has gone a long way in providing political commitment to the activities of the District. The District is committed to Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of facilities being put in place as it is very critical for their sustainability. Each project in this plan has a component of O&M and funding prioritized for the same. There is also a budget provision of about four million shillings only for maintenance of various investments including buildings from our local revenue. All the projects profiles for projects to be undertaken in 2010/11 FY have detailed O&M plans and this will enhance their sustainability. The District is putting emphasis on scientific and result oriented management based on integrated work plans. The implementation of the District Development Plan calls for political commitment on the part of political leaders and maximum dedication on the side of technocrats. The achievement of the set goals and objectives in the plan will no doubt steer Kyenjojo District to greater heights and guarantee the provisions of quality service to our community. The unity and harmony prevailing in the Kyenjojo District transcends religious, tribal, and political biases. It is against this background that people have settled to sustainable production. With this spirit maintained, the District shall no doubt work substantially towards Prosperity for All I acknowledge the fact that the production of this document has not been an easy task for both the political and technical arms of Council. It is for this reason that I should congratulate members of the District Council, its Committees, and heads of Departments for the job well done. Special mention goes to the Chief Administrative Officer and the District Planning Unit for their coordination role in preparation for this District Development Plan. x

11 I hope that this document, which has taken a lot of resources and commitment will guide the district as it strives for the betterment of its people in the next three years. I therefore take this opportunity to thank all those who participated in the data collection, processing, analysis and compilation and word processing of the District Development Plan, which has been a basis of planning in the District. Lastly, I call upon all the people of Kyenjojo District, the Central Government, Donors, and NGOs, other stakeholders, Lower Local Councils and all people of good will to positively contribute to the actualization of this plan. Hon.Byamukama James DISTRICT CHAIRPERSON/KYENJOJO xi

12 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Planning is a legal requirement as per the 1995 Constitution of Uganda and the Local Governments Act CAP 243, Section 36 (3). In view of the above obligation, Kyenjojo District has developed a comprehensive five-year rolling development plan involving many stakeholders. This plan is holistic, integrated and poverty focused and is divided into four major Chapters namely: 1. Introduction and situation analysis 2. Objectives and strategies of the plan 3. Budget performance and sectoral situational analysis for the financial year 2009/ Five Year Development Plans for different departments 5. Departmental Annual Workplans for 2010/2011 Financial Year Resulting from the sector analysis, the major District challenges are; o o o o o o Poverty HIV/AIDS Low community sense of ownership of established government projects High population growth rate Low employment opportunities High levels of illiteracy This plan covers all the departments in the district with their respective Mission, current status, constraints and objectives all of which contribute to the realization of the District mission which is in line with the National development priorities and prosperity for all. This plan took the bottom up planning approach such that it includes sub county projects that were forwarded for district funding. The District expects support from locally raised revenue, Central Government, Development Partners and well wishers in operationalising this plan. The District will employ the following strategies in implementing this plan; Revenue mobilization and identification of more revenue sources Community mobilization and sensitization programmes Encreased production and environment protection Improved feeder and access road network Capacity building Lobbying and advocacy Involvement of stakeholders and other development partners in implementation Adherence to the approved annual work plans and budget xii

GENERAL BACKGROUND: Kyenjojo District has a projected population of around 336,800 as at 2009 consisting of 166,000 males and 336,800 females,is growing at a rate of 3.7% per year. This is a very high growth rate of the population and at such a rate the population will double in the next 19 years. The District boarders with Kibaale in the North, Kyegegwa in the East, Kamwenge in the South west, and Kabarole in the West.

Human Development Index (HDI) Human Poverty Index (HPI) 27.1 Age Structure: Age Group Percentage Age groups according to functionality The above population figures have direct effects to social-economic implications and are interpreted as follows:- The average number of Household size being 4.7 (equivalent to national value) call it 5 is a big number given the general housing nature of in the District where by most housing structures have less than three bed rooms and construction materials are mostly local (mud and wattle) and being used with no technical advises. This means people live in dump environment and being squeezed imply that they are highly susceptible to communicable diseases. 2

20 The Population growth rate is higher than the national average. This means that every year that passes, the population of the district is growing at a higher rate than the national. The demand for social services is increasing subsequently i.e, the District experiences an addition of around fourteen thousand people every year. This may not mean much in terms of numbers; but can have a lot of Implications when it comes to feeding, clothing, shelter, education, health services and other social demands. This is a big challenge because whatever number we add to our population, we must be ready to meet the social demands such number comes with. The age structure is pyramidal with a wide base and a narrow structure meaning that the population is young and has a high dependency ratio, with only one person in the economically productive ages of years for each dependent child. The Chart below illustrates the case. The population of the District consists of three major groups. (a) Those below 15 years 49.3%, it s a young population that must be catered for in all aspects of life. (b) The economically active group (15 64) is 47.7%. (c) Those 65 years and above consists 3.%. This is a group of old people who rarely contribute to production. More than 50% (Those below 15, and those above 65 years ) of the population consists of dependants and this has an impact on the district revenues and incomes of the people leading to low levels of development. 3

21 Budget Actual Budget Actual Budget Actual Budget Actual Budget Actual Budget Actual Budget Actual Shs. District Revenue The main sources of local revenue in the District have been Graduated tax, Education tax, departmental collections and Licensees/receipts of sale from retail and wholesale merchandise until the beginning of F/Y 2005/06 when G. tax was scrapped and went with Education tax. This has left the main sources of local revenues as licence/fees. The Chart below gives the Local revenue performance i.e assessment Vs actual collections for various sources in the last 7 five years and the current one as of 30 th April It reveals that Local revenue has been on decrease while Donor funds have been unstable and not easy to forecast thus the vast difference between the budget and actual Central government remains the main funding body of Kyenjojo District and budgeted funding under various programmes is met. This should be encouraged and supported. Revenue Perfomance 14,000,000,000 12,000,000,000 10,000,000,000 8,000,000,000 6,000,000,000 Local Gvt.

23 Socio-Economic/Poverty issues Poverty Analysis Like any other District in Uganda, Kyenjojo District is poor it lacks basic infrastructure for development.running water is only in a few trading centres of Kyenjojo, Kaihura, Kyamutunzi and Kyarusozi while the other upcoming trading cerntres and town councils like Butunduzi and Kyakatwire do not have running water. The roads are poor particularly in rainy seasons. Road network summary Sections under the surface by type Break up of secion length by surface condition Surface Type Length (KM) % of District Total % good % fair % poor/bad Earth (feeder roads Gravel The above has hindered the establishment and maintenance of processing factories and as a result there are minimal employment opportunities. The District s economy is based on sale of agriculture produce which is mainly in raw form and there fore fetch little income. According to 2002 Population and Housing Census, only 4% of the population is urban meaning that most of the population is rural which has their major source of livelihood as subsistence farming. The 2002 Population and housing census reveals that 77% of all employed persons (aged above 10 years) are involved in the agriculture industry in Uganda. The main cash crops grown are tea and coffee. It is only tea which has attracted the establishment of 5 tea factories in the District while coffee is sold in raw form. The graph below shows that Kyenjojo District is fairing well in terms of traditional food crops compared to western region and National level (according to NSDS Survey 2004). However, there is need intensify commercialization of this subsistence production National Service and Delivery Survey Animal husbandry is practiced on a subsistence scale as well. Farmers face a number of problems like inadequate veterinary services, water and pasture during the dry spells.

27 The chart above 2 shows the limited market information portrayed as loan/micro-finance accessibility. Compared to national level, Kyenjojo is far behind in this aspect. As earlier discussed, poverty has its greatest effects particularly children, youth, women the elderly and disabled. Geographical Poverty pockets on the vulnerable categories While the results show that the majority of the households in the district are poor, there are parts of the district which most hit by poverty than the others. The most hit sub county is Bufunjo according to the ranking of sub counties by the TPC. Poverty in Bufunjo is characterized by high illiteracy levels and high reported deaths especially among the mothers and infants due to failure to access medical services due to lack of money and the long distances to the only health unit in the sub county. In other areas in the district poverty is attributed to low productivity and lack of markets for the produce.

28 Overall Analysis of Sub-county Ranking The synthesis of the sub county ranking brings out salient issues and there likely implications to the development of DLSP program. The analysis looks at the key indicators of income levels, social services coverage, community agencies, LLG staffing, administrative physical infrastructure and LLG functionality Income levels The LLGs that ranked low under income levels were due to low productivity and few economic activity options which contributed to low local revenue collection a case in point is Kasule sub county in Kyaaka county which is basically subsistence farming with no markets and big trading centres. The sub county of Butiiti and Kyarusozi were ranked high because they have a variety of economic activities and the tea plantations that can offer employment to the people. There is need to diversify economic activity options and also create markets where people can sell their produce and local governments can collect local revenue. Social services coverage The social service coverage in the district is above average in terms numbers of primary and secondary schools and health units. The challenge currently at hand is the quality of services provided by these institutions. Regarding health units, the distance in some sub counties is still long especially for the pregnant mothers and the PLE results show that performance at that level is still poor. The number of vocational institutions is very low which means that those who do not go for secondary education do not have an alternative. Community agencies The number and categories of community agencies at parish level is very good because there are many community groups which are functional at that level. Existence of these community agencies is good for the implementation of the DLSP because they can be utilized as implementing agencies. LLG staffing The staffing position in the sub counties shows that all positions of sub county chief are filled and a number of LLGs have extension staff in agriculture veterinary but the number of community development workers is very low with some sub counties having none. This situation is likely to impact negatively on the implementation of the DLSP program because most agencies interacted with feel that the community development department would be the most ideal to coordinate DLSP programs in the sub county. Opportunities available to improve the situation Political will Relative security stability Fertile soils Availability of technical capabilities Development partners Challenges The poor do not fulfill the requirements of various programmes and are thus usually isolated. Targeting the poorest of the poor Lack of market information Limited community participation in poverty eradication initiatives High interest rates of startup funds by various MFIs 11

29 Focus The focus for this development plan is therefore in line with NDP and emphasizes the following:- Increased farm productivity Developing the required infrastructure such as access roads, markets, health centres and schools Increased service delivery infrastructure Enhancing micro-finance institutions Identifying, organising and involving the actual poor.

Environment action plans were formulated at parish, subcounty and district which were then integrated into the sub-county and district development plans. For projects which require Environment Impact Assessment (EIA), an Environment Impact Study will be conducted before the project is implemented. Mitigation measures for projects identified will be budgeted for in the total project cost. The bills of quantities and project profiles have been prepared taking into account the impacts and mitigation measures to rectify the impacts identified. Sectors have integrated environment issues highlighted in the District Environment Action Plan (DEAP) into their respective development plans. Similarly projects addressing environment and wetland conservation are part of this development plan. Activities intended to alleviate poverty and sustainability utilize wetlands have been included in this plan. This District and sub county project profiles have taken care of the environmental issues and mitigation measures. At implementation level, the contractor is supposed to put in place all mitigation activities as stipulated in the BOQs. SECTOR ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS Works Sector All sub-projects are subjected to environment impact assessment. Environment and social screening forms used. Environment checklist should use to check the impacts. Mitigation measures must be planned for and costed.
