REPORT OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF KAMPALA CAPITAL CITY AUTHORITY
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 TH JUNE 2019
THE RT. HON. SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) which comprise the statement of Financial Position as at 30 th June 2019, the Statement of Financial Performance, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows together with other accompanying statements for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kampala Capital City Authority as at 30 th June 2019 and its financial performance and cash flows for the period then ended, in accordance with the provisions of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015, KCCA Act 2010 and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).
Basis of Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions (ISSAIs). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement’s section of my report. I am independent of the Authority in accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, 1995 (as amended), the National Audit Act, 2008, the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (Parts A and B) (IESBA Code), the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) Code of Ethics and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of Financial Statements in Uganda. I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code, and in accordance with other ethical requirements applicable to performing audits in Uganda. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.
Key Audit Matters
and during implementation, effort is required to achieve the agreed objectives/targets for the entity within the available resources.
It has been observed over the years that planned and budgeted for activities of a number of Government entities are not implemented, thereby affecting service delivery.
In the overall office-wide planning, I assessed risks like the inadequate release of funds and failure to undertake budget monitoring and supervision that are likely to be the causes of failure to implement entity planned activities. The focus was put on the planned outputs of the entities which greatly impact on the wellbeing of communities.
Consequently, I developed procedures in order to address the performance of the budget of the entity:
- Ascertaining the amount received by the entity and the source of the funding
- Inquiring from management about off-budget financing received and ascertaining the basis for the off-budget financing, if any.
- Comparing the approved budget against the actual receipts
- Comparing the planned vote function outputs against the actuals and determining the variances
- Reviewing utilisation of the funds.
Based on the procedures performed, I observed the Authority has a constitutional mandate to facilitate the delivery of quality services to the people in Uganda’s Capital City-Kampala. In addition, the Authority deals with matters such as initiation of policies, setting delivery standards, determining taxation levels, enacting legislation for proper management of the City, constructing and maintain roads, organising and managing traffic among others.
To achieve this mandate, the KCCA planned to implement and achieve a number of both recurrent and development deliverables under various programmes. A review of the entity’s ministerial statements, approved work plans and budgets revealed that the Authority had an approved budget of UGX.315,388,545,309, out of which UGX.289,023,059,777 was released. The key deliverables for the financial year 2018/19 were summarized in the table below.
Table: Showing key deliverables for KCCA for the year
| Sn | Key deliverables | Amount UGX. | Cumulative percentage of the approved budget |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Output: 02 Urban Road Maintenance | 2,300,000,000 | 0.73 |
| 2 | Output: 04 Street Lights Maintenance | 900,000,000 | 1.01 |
| 3 | Construction and Maintenance of Drains LOT 1:Design Update and Construction of Selected Drainage Systems in Kampala City | 77,842,564,000 | 25.70 |
| 4 | Output: 03 Traffic Junction and Congestion Improvement | 2,274,436,000 | 26.42 |
| 5 | Output: 82 Drainage Construction | 23,404,900,000 | 33.84 |
| 6 | Output: 01 Urban planning, policies, laws and strategies | 1,487,635,000 | 34.31 |
| 7 | Output: 02 Building licensing and approvals | 135,828,000 | 34.35 |
The Authority planned to achieve the above deliverables through the implementation of 193 outputs. I sampled 45 out-puts worth UGX.206,936,950,000 representing 65% of the total budget for review and below are my findings.
| Observation | Recommendation | |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | Revenue performance reviewed the NTR estimates, revenue sources and rates charged at vote level for the financial year 2018/2019 and noted that out of the budgeted revenue of UGX.126,899,636,512 the year 2018/19, only UGX.90,553,865,805 was collected representing the performance of 71% of the target. for to collect revenue affects the implementation of the Authority planned activities. indicated that the main cause of failure to realise the revenue target was the failure to resume collection of Commercial Road User fees from commercial vehicles operating in the city especially taxis, following its suspension in 2017. Since the fees were revised following their suspension, a new legal Instrument to cater for the new fees has to be in place before the resumption of collections. The new Instrument has been scheduled for Cabinet final approval and about UGX.18 billion projected to be realised from this source during the financial year 2018/19. Also the streamlining of boda-boda operations in the City is to be spearheaded by the Ministry of Internal Affairs because of the security interests in relation to that sector.

| 1.2 | Off budget receipts noted the Authority received off-budget financing to a tune of UGX.14,401,147,891 which was never paid into the consolidated fund as required by Section 36(6), 43 and 44(20) of the PFMA 2015 which requires all the public resources including external financing to be paid into the consolidated fund and once deposited shall form part of the consolidated fund and shall be availed through the Appropriations Act. These funds were received directly from development partners for undertaking a number of activities financing distorts planning, which may result in duplication of activities and is also conflicts with the Public finance Management Act 2015. stated that they have always sought government’s approval for receipts of all these resources as required by S 44(1) and these funds are approved by the Minister of Finance Planning and Economic Development. In the budgeting process for the financial year (FY) 2018/19, no platform had been availed to budget for these resources in the budgeting tool. An effort to get a supplementary budget was sought, but it was fruitless. I Off-budget Management | I advised the Accounting Officer to continue engaging with the Ministry of Finance for supporting the entity on the management of off-budget receipts. |
| 1.3 | budgeted but UGX.289,022,971,396 was warranted resulting in a budget shortfall of UGX.26,365,573,913 representing 8.3%. to receive UGX.315,388,545,309 Out of the warrants of UGX.289,022,971,396, UGX.278,552,276,158 was spent by the entity resulting into unspent balance of observed that: KCCA I Under absorption of funds | I advised the Accounting Officer to ensure that all the funds availed are fully absorbed. |

The under absorption also negates the purpose for which funds were warranted. indicated that the failure to absorb funds was because the Authority only collected UGX.90.56 billion out of UGX.102.17 billion released as AIA and therefore spending beyond the collected amount would mean spending government money without authority.

| 1.4 | of the 193 activities with a total budget of UGX.315,388,545,309 implemented by the entity during the financial year, I sampled and reviewed 45 activities with a budget of UGX.206,936,950,000 representing 65% of the total budget as indicated the table below. Table showing planned and sampled outputs Details Budget (UGX) Bn Total Outputs/activities Outputs/activities sampled Percentage Num ber 193 45 32% 315.388 206.936 65% Non Quantification of outputs/activities of the entity performance reports for the financial year 2018/2019 revealed that out of 45 activities assessed, 26 activities representing 58% of the total outputs were not quantified to enable measurement of performance — details in Appendix I. observed that, in these cases, management reported in generic ways, i.e. Purchase of Light Equipment, Maintenance of streetlights and traffic junctions, Policy and Advisory Capacity Building for technical staff, Civil Litigation Criminal Prosecution Law Enforcement, Policies, laws, strategies and guidelines, Health Infrastructure Rehabilitation, among others. to plan and report on the quality/quantity of activities implemented renders it difficult to establish individual activity costs for each planned output, and this curtails effective accountability when funds are subsequently spent. Further, without clearly spelt out planned outputs, I could not ascertain whether funds appropriated by Parliament and released were actually spent and the intended objectives achieved. The Accounting Officer explained that KCCA operates under nine sectors and has faced constraints in staffing which has affected the quality of the detailed budgets prepared in the budgeting tool. KCCA have since recruited more Planners, Accountants and Economists to strengthen the budgeting and reporting function and management is optimistic that this will be improved upon in the FY 2020/21.

Out of the 19 quantified outputs/activities assessed, 5 outputs/activities representing 26.3% were implemented; 11 output/activity representing 57.9% was partially implemented while 3 output/activity representing 15.8% was not implemented at all.

Emphasis of Matter
Without qualifying my opinion, I draw attention to the following matters disclosed in the financial statements that, in my judgement, are of such importance and fundamental to users’ understanding of the financial statements.
2.0
Management of Domestic arrears
2.1 Outstanding domestic arrears
Section 21(2) of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015 states that a vote shall not take any credit from any local company or body unless it has no unpaid domestic arrears from a debt in the previous financial year, and it has the capacity to pay the expenditure from the approved estimates as appropriated by Parliament for that financial year.
arrears remains a challenge. The table below shows the trend analysis of the domestic arrears for the past three years.
| No | Year End | Amount (UX) | % increase/decrease |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 30 th June 2017 | 29,536,261,108 | |
| 2 | 30 th June 2018 | 36,433,402,250 | 23 |
| 3 | 30 th June 2019 | 33,251,156,514 | -9 |
Accrued domestic arrears adversely hamper budget performance in the subsequent year as outputs anticipated in the appropriated budget cannot be attained due to settlement of the arrears. This may also result in litigation for non-payment of services already consumed.
In their response, management explained that the domestic arrears mainly relate to financial years 2016/17, and FY 2017/18 and arose from Garnishee orders issued that drew resources which would have been used to settle the unpaid bills. Because government has not financed the domestic arrears, the position has not improved significantly
I advised the Accounting Officer to engage with the Ministry of Finance to find sustainable avenues of settling all the arrears that remained outstanding by the close of the financial year.
2.2
Failure to Budget for Domestic Arrears
Section 13(10) (a) (iv) of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015 defines an annual budget as the financing estimates for the financial year to which the budget relates, including a plan for Government debt and any other financial liabilities for the financial year to which the annual budget relates.
KCCA had arrears to the tune of UGX.36,433,402,250 outstanding from the prior year. A review of the approved budget estimates of the entity for the financial year under review indicated that only UGX.825,708,256 budget provisions were made towards the settlement of domestic arrears.
Failure to budget for domestic arrears exposes the entity to a risk of penalties and fines resulting from litigation against the Authority. There is also a risk of diverting funds from items for which they were appropriated to settle arrears.
| No | Details | Amount (UGX) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | KIIPD | 14,972,408,455 |
| 2 | KCCA TSSA | 9,959,356,138 |
| Total | 24,931,764,593 |
If the Authority's funds are not safeguarded from Garnishee orders, there is a likelihood that the Authority’s activities may stall because of the accumulation of interest on unpaid certificates since most of the authority activities are of civil works in nature, in addition to delayed service delivery.
In their response, management stated that it has over the years committed additional resources to budget for settlement of litigation cases as a way of avoiding garnishee orders. Unfortunately, the allocation is insufficient to cater for overwhelming judgement amounts by Courts of Law for example, in the above two cases. Prior negotiations have also been undertaken.
I advised the Accounting Officer to engage MoFPED in consultation with MoJCA to develop strategies to safeguard its funds from Garnishee orders by budgeting and paying off litigations fees as they fall due, and also explore the possibility of allocating some of the locally generated resources to settlement of outstanding obligations as a way reducing the effects of the outstanding commitments on the operations of the Authority.
2.4 Outstanding long-term borrowing
I observed that the Authority has an outstanding long-term borrowing of UGX.42,570,488,999 arising from development credit agreement between IDA and KCC on behalf of Government entered into on 12 th August 1991 for improvement of waste management in the city, production of up to date maps of Kampala and strengthening the financial and personnel management systems and services.
However, this loan has never been serviced, and as such, the outstanding balance of UGX.42,570,488,999 remained on the KCCA books as an obligation pending clearance. Management indicated that the Authority does not have the capacity to clear or service this obligation.
The continued disclosure of this liability in the books of KCCA is a potential misrepresentation of KCCA obligations since there is a remote probability that KCCA will ever repay this loan.
contrary to the law and exposes the Authority to avoidable charges in the form of fines and penalties.
The Accounting Officer noted the observation and indicated that management has always endeavoured to settle outstanding arrears.
I advised the Accounting Officer to ensure that timely remittances are made as provided for under the NSSF Act.
2.6
Non-remittance of Pay as You Earn (PAYE)
I observed that Pay As You Earn (PAYE) for the Authority amounting to UGX.27,809,236,591 remained unpaid by the close of the year 30 th June 2019. Violation of the Income-tax law attracts fines and penalties thus reducing funding for planned activities.
The Accounting officer explained that the accumulation of the PAYE is on account of shortfall in the collection of AIA experienced in the FY 2016/17, FY 2017/18 and FY 2018/19. The Authority was unable to collect funding to cater for these costs and the accumulation. Management has also written to MoFPED requesting funding to clear these domestic arrears.
I advised the Accounting Officer to always adhere to the requirements under the Income Tax Act to avoid fines and penalties.
Other Information
The Accounting Officer is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the statement of responsibilities of the Accounting Officer and the commentaries by the Head of Accounts and the Accounting Officer and other supplementary information. The other information does not include the financial statements and my auditors’ report thereon. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and I do not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially consistent with the financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; I am required to report that fact. I have nothing to report in this regard.
In preparing the financial statements, the Accounting Officer is responsible for assessing the Authority’s ability to continue delivering its mandate, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to affecting the delivery of the mandate of the Kampala Capital City Authority, and using the going concern basis of accounting, unless the Accounting Officer has a realistic alternative to the contrary.
The Accounting Officer is responsible for overseeing the Authority’s’ financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISSAIs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISSAIs, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Authority’s ability to deliver its mandate. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Kampala Capital City Authority to fail to deliver its mandate.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
From the matters communicated with the Accounting Officer, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Other Reporting Responsibilities
In accordance with Section 19 (1) of the National Audit Act, 2008, I report to you, based on my work described on the audit of Financial Statements, that; except for the matters raised in compliance with legislation section below, and whose effect has been considered in forming my opinion on financial statements, the activities, financial transactions and information reflected in the financial statements that have come to my notice during the audit, are in all material respects, in compliance with the authorities which govern them.
Report on the Audit of Compliance with Legislation
The material findings in respect of the compliance criteria for the applicable subject matters are as follows:
3.0
Staff Performance Management Initiatives
The Government of Uganda has been implementing Public Service Reforms since the 1990s geared towards cultivating a performance culture focused on results, excellence and professionalism.
Consequently, a number of performance management initiatives have been introduced for enhancing performance and service delivery in the Public Service. These include the Open Performance Appraisal System, Rewards and Sanctions Framework, Client Charters and Service Delivery Standards and Performance Agreements/Plans, among others.
To implement the staff performance management initiatives, public service issued Circular Standing Instructions No. 1 of 2010, Circular Standing Instruction No. 1 of 2016, Public Service Standing Orders, Circular Standing Instruction No.1 Of 2011 to offer guidance to MDAs and Local Governments in undertaking the different activities on staff performance management.
The absence of Performance Agreements limits effective accountability for staff on how the extent to which they have achieved their agreed targets.
3.2
Completion of performance appraisals
I noted that out of 1,319 staff in post at the beginning of the financial year, only 1,244 staff completed the performance appraisals, and 75 staff did not undertake the activity.
In the circumstances, management is unable to determine the extent to which set performance targets are achieved and also is unable to enforce the rewards and sanctions guidelines as they largely depend on the performance appraisal process.
3.3
Completion of Semi-annual Performance Reviews
I noted that although management indicated that regular reviews of staff performance are done, I did not find documented evidence that semi-annual performance reviews were undertaken by the staff during the year under review. I was therefore not in position to confirm that these period reviews were actually undertaken.
3.4
Mechanism of staff attendance
I noted that the Kampala Capital City Authority uses registers to monitor staff attendance. However, this mechanism does not track staff log out and is thus not effective.
3.5
Existence of rewards and sanctions committee
I noted that the Authority has a disciplinary (sanctions) committee but lacked a rewards committee as required by the guidelines.
3.6 Client Charter
Contrary to section 27 of the Public service standing orders, I noted that management was yet to develop and operationalize a client’s charter as required by the standing orders.
I advised the Accounting Officer to urgently address the weaknesses identified and ensure that there is strict compliance by the Authority to the guidance by the Ministry of Public Service.
This exposes the land to encroachment and loss of the land in addition to revenue losses in the form of ground rent and premium on the expiry of leases.
The Accounting Officer promised to follow-ups this issue with concerned bodies in order to secure the land titles.
I advise the Accounting Officer to prioritize that follow-up and ensure that all land belonging to the Authority is titled.
