In the July-September 2020 edition, we bring you some of the key milestones that have been made by the Local Government Finance Commission (LGFC) in local revenue mobilization. Among other objectives, the LGFC was created to advise the president on all matters concerning the distribution of revenue between the Government and local Governments and the allocation to each local Government of money out of the consolidated fund.
The issue also presents some of the TJAU partners at the sub-national level from Teso, Central and West Nile regions sharing their experiences. These partners have been able to contribute greatly to advocacy work within their respective communities.
