STATISTICAL ABSTRACT
 FOREWORD

The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) is mandated to provide relevant, reliable and
timely official statistics needed to support evidence-based policy formulation and to
monitor socio-economic development outcomes. The Statistical Abstract, published
annually, is the prime channel through which the Bureau presents combined
information derived from the latest surveys, censuses and administrative records from
Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and from many other sources. The
information is compiled using international best practices in statistical production.

Information contained in the 2011 abstract covers statistics on socio-economic sectors,

including, but not limited to, Environment, Population, Education, Health, Agriculture,
Labour, Expenditure and Poverty, Energy, Business, National Accounts, Banking and
Currency, Prices, Trade, Migration and Tourism, Transport and Communication and
Government Finance. This abstract has for the second time included sections on Food
Security and the Producer Price Index for Hotels and Restaurants (PPI-H&R).
Presentations in this publication are in the form of tables, graphs and charts
accompanied with explanatory text.

UBOS appreciates the continued cooperation of MDAs in availing the requisite data in
time to produce this publication. Special thanks go to UBOS technical staff who
compiled the 2011 Abstract. Copies of the publication are available at Statistics House,
Plot 9, Colville Street, Kampala. Further information can be obtained from the official
UBOS website: www.ubos.org.

We sincerely hope that our stakeholders will find the information in the 2011 Statistical

1 Environment Statistics
This section presents statistics on land, forestry, climate as well as water supply.

1.1 Land
Uganda has an area of 241,550.7 square kilometres (sq. km) of which 41,743.2 sq km are open
water and swamps, and 199,807.4 sq km is land. The altitude above sea level ranges from 620
metres (Albert Nile) to 5,111 metres (Mt. Rwenzori peak). Uganda is located within the Great Lakes
region of East and Central Africa. Uganda shares Lake Victoria with Kenya and Tanzania and
Lakes Albert and Edward with the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Within its
boundaries are lakes Wamala, Bunyonyi, Katwe, Nakivale, Mburo, Kyoga, George and Bisina. (See
Statistical Appendix table1.1 A)

The three major rivers in Uganda are Aswa, Kagera and the Nile. There are many other smaller
rivers and streams which drain into wetlands and then lakes or form tributaries and sub-tributaries to
the major rivers.

The vegetation is mainly composed of savannah grassland, woodland, bush land and tropical
high forest.

Table 1.1 below shows the national land cover in sq. km. by type. The cultivated land cover being
the largest increased from 84,010 sq. km. in 1990 to 99,018.4 sq. km. in 2005. The second in size
are the grasslands which remained constant at 51,152.7 sq km for the same periods. Notably, the
bushlands and woodlands decreased from 14,223.9 sq. km. and 39,740.9 sq. km. in 1990 to
11,893.6 and 29,528.1 sq. km. in 2005 respectively. Similarly, plantations (hard and soft woods),
tropical high forest (depleted and normal) have decreased over the period.

1.2 Forests

1.2.1 Forests Cover

In 2005, Uganda had a total of 3.6 million hectares of forest land compared to 4.9 million hectares in
1990. This is a reduction of 36.1 percent over a period of 15 years. As a proportion, in 1990 forests
covered 20.4 percent of the land area of the country. By 2005 the land under forests had reduced to
15.0 percent which is equivalent to 1.3 million hectares in the 15 years. The deforestation is mainly
due to the conversion of forest land to other land use types such as agriculture.( see table 1.2.1)

There is a remarkable difference in the degree of deforestation inside protected areas as compared
to forests on private land. Forests outside protected areas reduced from 3.46 million hectares to 2.3
million hectares, a difference of about 1.2 million hectares. Forests under protected areas reduced
from 1.47 million hectares to 1.3 million hectares, a difference of about 0.20 million hectares, NFA,
2009 Biomass report. Table 1.2.1 below shows that the total (inside and outside PAs) deforestation
rate per year is 1.8 percent.

1.2.2 Local and Central Forest Reserves

In Table 1.2.2, the area in hectares under forests for both the Central Forest Reserve
(CFR) and Local Forest Reserve (LFR) was determined under the National Bio-mass Study,
2005. The proportion of land under Central Forest Reserves (CFR) was higher than the Local
Forest Reserves in all the regions. The Eastern had the largest proportion (2.6 percent) under
Local Forest Reserves, followed by Central (0.5 percent), Northern (0.3 percent) and Western (0.1
percent) as shown below.

1.2.3 Consumption of charcoal and firewood

Table 1.2.3 shows monetary and non-monetary value of household expenditure on firewood and
charcoal as reported in the Household Expenditure Surveys. The total nominal value increased to
409.1 billion in 2009/10 from Shs. 32.8 billion in 2005/06. The value of charcoal and firewood
consumption went up by more than 10 times during the same period.

estimated at 399.6 billion shillings in 2010 as compared to 346.8 billion in 2009 representing a 15.2
percent increase while wood production (‘000 tones) is estimated to be 39,469 in 2010 as compared
to 37,857 in 2009.

1.3 Climate

1.3.1 Rainfall
Figure 1.3.1 below shows the long term average and monthly rainfall trends for the year
2010 for selected centres. These are Arua, Kampala, Soroti and Mbarara. Each region is
represented by one centre.

For Kampala centre, during the 1st half of 2010 the rainfall was higher for different months than the
long term average. However, the long term average was higher than the rainfall received in the 2nd
half of 2010. The lowest rainfall recorded in the 2010 was 27.1 mm in July and the highest was 200
mm in April.

In Soroti, monthly rainfall received in 2010 was generally higher than the long term average except
for the months of April, Nov and Dec which were significantly below the long term average as
compared to their corresponding months. The lowest rainfall recorded was about 19.4 mm in
December and the highest was 234 mm in March for the 2010 series while 44 mm was recorded in
February as the lowest and 161 mm as the highest in the month of August for the long term series.

In Arua, the monthly rainfall received in 2010 was generally higher than the long term average
except for the months of March/April and Sep/Oct where the amounts were significantly below the
long term average as compared to their corresponding months. Lowest rainfall recorded was 8 mm
in January and the highest was 251 mm in July for the 2010 series while 25 mm was recorded in
January as the lowest and 212 mm as the highest in the month of July for the long term series.

The rainfall movements for Mbarara were similar to those of the long term average for most of the
months, although 2010 rainfall was generally higher than the long term average rainfall for the most
  3
months. There was almost no rainfall received in July while Sep 2010 received the highest amount
of rainfall, 193 mm. For the Long Term series, July recorded the lowest amount of 26 mm while
September recorded the highest amount of 157 mm (See Statistical Appendix Table 1.3).

1.3.2 Humidity  
The monthly mean relative humidity at 06.00 and 12.00 hours was generally in line with long term
averages for all the selected centres (Gulu, Jinja, Kampala and Mbarara), except for Mbarara
where the patterns differ (See Appendix Table 1.3 C)

1.4 Water Supply

1.4.1 Metred water supply

National Water and Sewerage Corporation (NWSC) is the main provider of metered water in
Uganda, operating in 23 towns. The towns are Kampala, Jinja/Njeru, Entebbe, Tororo, Mbale,
Masaka, Mbarara, Gulu, Lira, Lugazi, Fort Portal, Kasese, Kabale, Arua, Bushenyi/Ishaka, Soroti,
Mukono, Malaba, Iganga, Mubende, Hoima, Masindi and Kaberamaido. Mukono water services are
managed by the Kampala NWSC Area and Malaba by the Tororo area. Kaberamaido town was
gazetted as a new town under NWSC Management in 2008.

During the FY 2009/10 water production and supply was 72.14 million cubic metres, an increase of
2.94 million cubic meters from the previous financial year 2008/09. Figure 1.4.1 below shows the
pattern of water production in Uganda.

Figure 1.4.1: Water produced by NWSC in Uganda, 2004/05 – 2009/10

1.4.2 Small towns water supply

Water supply for small towns increased from 1.1 million cubic metres in 2006 to 3.5 million cubic
metres in 2010 representing an increase of 32.5 percent in the last five years. The supply increased
by 2.8 percent from 3.3 million cubic metres in 2009 to 3.5 cubic metres in 2010 (see statistical
Appendix Table 1.4 k).

2 Population and Social Statistics

2.1 Population

Uganda’s population has continued to grow rapidly over time. It increased from 9.5 millions in 1969
to 24.2 million in 2002. Between 1991 and 2002, the population growth rate was 3.2 percent. The
population is projected to have increased to 32.9 million by mid 2011 as shown in figure 2.1.1.

2.1.1 Age Distribution of the Population

Table 2.2.1 shows that the population of Uganda is increasingly becoming younger, with the
proportion of the children (under 18 years) having increased from 51 percent in 1969 to 56 percent
in 2002. The proportion of the elderly persons (60 years and above) on the other hand decreased
from 6 percent in 1969 to about 5 percent in 2002.

Population Aged 18 – 30 Years 21.7 23.6 22.3
Population Aged 60 Years or More 5.8 5.0 4.6

2.1.2 Urbanisation

Urbanisation is defined as the increase in the proportion of the population living in urban areas.
However, the definition of urban areas has been changing over time. The 2002 Census covers only
gazetted urban areas while the earlier censuses included ungazetted trading centres with more than
1,000 people as part of the urban population.

  7
Figure 2.1.2 shows that the urban population in Uganda has increased rapidly from less than one
million persons in 1980 to 4.9 million in 2011, representing a more than six time increase. This
increase is majorly attributed to the creation of new urban administrative units in addition to the
demographic factors (Fertility, Mortality and Migration).

2.1.3 Fertility

The fertility levels have remained high over the past 3 decades, with the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) of
about 7 children per woman. Figure 2.1.3 below shows the trend of TFR over the period 1991 to
2006. According to the 2006 Uganda Demographic and Health Survey (UDHS), TFR has slightly
reduced to 6.7 children per woman. The TFR is higher in the rural areas compared to the urban
areas.

2.1.4 Mortality

There has been a general improvement in mortality levels. The Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) declined
from 97 to 76 deaths per 1,000 live births between 1995 and 2006 while the under five mortality
declined from 162 to 137 deaths per 1,000 live births over the same period. The 2006 UDHS
showed that IMR is lower among children in urban areas as well as those born to educated and
wealthier mothers. Figure 2.1.4 shows the trend of IMR and Under Five Mortality over the period
1995 to 2006.

2.1.5 Life Expectancy

Life expectancy at birth is an estimate of the average number of years a person is expected to live if
a particular pattern of mortality is maintained. Table 2.1.1 shows that the overall life expectancy at
birth from the 2002 Census was 50 years for both sexes. There was a gain of 2.3 years in life
expectancy between 1991 and 2002 for both sexes. Males registered a lower life expectancy of 49
years compared to their female counterparts at 52 years.

2.2 Education
The statistics presented in this section are from the annual school census conducted by the Ministry
of Education and Sports. The indicators presented in this section include enrolment at all levels,
persons in the teaching profession, orphans, students with special needs and the number of
schools/institutions in the registry. The challenge faced is the low and changing response rate which
may affect the trend of the figures presented in this section.

2.2.1 Primary school education

The introduction of the Universal Primary Education (UPE) programme increased access to
education in Uganda and its main beneficiary is the rural population.

Table 2.2.1 shows a 4 percent increase in the number of pupils enrolled between 2008 and 2009.
There was a 7 percent increase in the number of primary schools between 2008 and 2009. The total
number of class rooms also increased by 6 percent over the same period. (See Statistical Appendix
Table 2.2 A).

The Gross Intake Rate (GIR) in 2008 and 2009 was 137 and 168 respectively. The GIR was more
than 100, implying that 68 percent of the pupils who enrolled in P1 were below and or above the age
of 6 years as shown in Statistical Appendix Table 2.2 B.

2.2.1.1 Primary school orphans

Table 2.2.2 shows that the number of orphans enrolled in primary schools reduced from 1.36 to 1.30
million children between 2008 and 2009. Of the orphans enrolled in 2009, the number of males was
higher than the females. The percentage share of orphans to total enrollment was 17.1 percent in
2008 compared to 15.7 percent in 2009.

2.2.1.2 Primary school pupils with disabilities
Table 2.2.3 shows a total of about 204,000 children with disabilities enrolled in primary school in
2009. The number of children with special needs enrolled in school increased by 11 percent
between 2008 and 2009. The percentage share of male pupils with disabilities was 53 percent
compared to 47 percent for female pupils in 2009.

2.2.1.3 Primary school education facilities

Provision of adequate infrastructure for the children enrolled in primary school is key and remains a
challenge to the education sector. At national level, about one in every three pupils enrolled in
primary does not have adequate sitting and writing space. Table 2.2.4 shows that a higher
percentage of pupils in lower classes had inadequate sitting and writing space compared to those in
upper classes for the period 2008 to 2009.

2.2.1.4 Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE)

The Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE) are conducted every year by the Uganda National
Examinations Board. Pupils must pass these examinations in order to join secondary education. Out
of the registered candidates, the majority (24 percent) passed in third grade in 2009 as shown in
Table 2.2.5 below. On the other hand, the percentage share of pupils who passed in first grade was
3.5 percent and 6.4 percent in 2008 and 2009 respectively.

2.2.2 Secondary School Education

The Universal Secondary Education (USE) has boosted enrolment over the years since its inception
in 2006. Table 2.2.6 indicates that total secondary enrolment increased by 10 percent between 2008
and 2009. The student teacher ratio remained more less the same over the same period. (See
Statistical Appendix Tables 2.2 H and 2.2 I.)

2.2.3 Higher Education Institutions

The government policy to liberalise the education system has led to an increase in the number of
private higher learning institutions. The number of universities in the last few decades has been
increasing and in addition more courses have been introduced hence widening the labour market.
Table 2.2.9 below indicates that 66 percent of the tertiary enrolment in 2007 was from universities.
However there seem to have been a decline in the enrolment of 24 percent between 2006 and 2007.

2.2.4 Literacy
Literacy is defined as ability to write meaningfully and read with understanding in any language. The
2005/06 Uganda National Household Survey revealed an overall literacy rate of 69 percent among
persons aged 10 years and above. Table 2.2.9 indicates that more men were found to be literate (76
percent) than women (63 percent). Among regions, in 2005/06, the Central region excluding
Kampala had the highest literacy rate (80 percent), while the Northern had the lowest (59 percent).
Kampala had a total literacy rate of 91 percent bearing in mind its special characteristics. The
literacy rates were higher for urban dwellers (86 percent) than their rural counter parts (66 percent).

2.3 Labour Force, Employment and Earnings

Importance of labour to the economy

Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) generates labour market information from the bi-annual
Uganda National Household Survey (UNHS), as well as from the annual labour force surveys in
urban areas, establishment surveys and administrative records. The main purpose is to inform the
National Development Plan (NDP) and other stake holders.

This section presents information on key labour market indicators on employment,

underemployment and unemployment. In addition, it shows trends for jobs advertised in
newspapers. This is in order to guide jobs seekers on the most demanded occupations in the
country. However, the information on vacancies is limited to only those jobs that are advertised in
newspapers. The section further shows changes in employment pattern in selected manufacturing
and hotel sectors.

2.3.1 Key Labour Market Indicators

The Labour Market Indicators given in this publication are based on the population in the working
age bracket (14 to 64 years) from the UNHS 2009/10. The data includes indicators for the persons
who worked for at least an hour during the last seven days preceding the survey. In order to show
the dynamics of the labour force, the analysis is made including and excluding working students who
were below 21 years (majority of who , that is 91 percent were in agriculture helping on household
farms). The summary of the Key Labour Market Indicators are presented in Appendix Table 2.3.A.

The total labour force in Uganda increased from 10.9 million persons in 2005/06 to 13.4 million
persons in 2009/10, an increase of 23 percent. The labour force participation rate (LFPR) increased
from 82 percent in 2005/06 to 91.5 percent in 2009/10. The overall unemployment rate was about 4
per cent in 2009/10 while the urban unemployment rate was about 9 percent in 2000. The time
related underemployment rate was about 4 percent.

By status in employment, 79 percent were self-employed in 2009/10. Paid employees constituted 21

percent of the work force in 2009/10 compared to 16 percent in 2005/06.

The results further indicate that nearly three quarters of the workforce had either primary level or no
education (Appendix Table 2.3 A). The proportion was 76 percent during the 2005/06 survey. Only
7 percent of the work force had specialised training i.e. post primary or secondary training, or degree
and above.

The majority of the working population was engaged in agriculture and were mainly self-employed.
By industry, agriculture employed 66 percent of the working population, while by occupation, 60
percent of the working population were agricultural and fishery workers. (Appendix Tables 2.3 B and
2.3 C).

2.3.1.1 Working poor

The working poor were defined as individuals who were part of working labour force but whose
incomes fell below the poverty line. According to the 2009/10 UNHS, 24.5percent of the population
(7.5 million persons) live below the poverty line. The bulk of these individuals were children and
adults who do not constitute the labour force. About 2.7 million (21 percent) were classified as the
“working poor. However, the proportion improved from 29 percent realised in the 2005/06 survey.

Disaggregated data by sector of employment (Figure 2.3.1), illustrate that the incidence of the
working poor is highest among those in the primary sector (26 percent) followed by those in the
manufacturing sector. The working population involved in the service sector is less likely to be poor
(8 percent) compared to those employed in primary and manufacturing sectors. There were
reductions in the proportion of the working poor during the period 2005/06 to 2009/10 in all sectors.
However, this was more pronounced in the primary sector where the proportion reduced by eight
percentage points compared to three percentage points each for the manufacturing and service
sectors.

2.3.2 Urban Labour Force Survey

The 2009 survey aimed to provide up-to-date information on “Greater Kampala” area, comprising of
Kampala City and selected subcounties of Wakiso and Mukono districts. The total labour force was
920,000. (Table 2.3.2). The labour force participation rate (LFPR) was 69 percent. The overall
unemployment rate was about 13 percent, while the time related underemployment rate was 12
percent. By status in employment, 50 percent were self employed and 50 percent were paid
employees.

The results further indicate that 32 percent of the workforce had either primary level or no education
as shown in Table 2.3.2 below. About 23 percent of the work force had specialised training, that is,
post primary or secondary training, or degree and above.

By industry, 30 percent of the working population was engaged in sales, maintenance and repair of
vehicles and personal goods. By occupation, 38 percent of the working population were service
workers, shop and market workers as shown in Table 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.

2.3.3 Demand for labour

Job advertisements portray the demand side of the labour market and act as an indicator of the
expanding sectors in the economy. The information on jobs advertised presented here is based on
two major English newspapers, The New Vision and Daily Monitor.1

Figure 2.3.2 shows the trend in the number of jobs advertised between 2006 and 2010. In the year
2010, the number of jobs advertised was 24,372, reflecting an increase of 21 percent in comparison
to the previous year. There is a general increasing trend in the number of jobs advertised since the
year 2008.

Figure 2.3.2: Number of advertised vacancies by year

2.3.3.1 Jobs advertised by Industry

The majority of the jobs advertised since 2006 were in the public administration sector (See
Appendix Table 2.3 F) although its share has been fluctuating. The share of the jobs advertised in
the public administration sector increased from 50 percent in 2007 to 80 percent in 2010. The
international organisations2 constituted 4 percent of the total advertisements in 2010, but there was
a decrease of 5 percentage points from the previous year. Only about four percent and about two
percent of the advertisements were in the social sectors of health and education respectively. But
this a decrease compared to the previous year.

2.3.3.2 Jobs advertised by Occupation

More than two thirds of the occupations advertised (67 percent) were for the associate professionals
(diploma and certificate holders). The professionals (degree holders) constituted 26 percent of all
the jobs advertised that year, (see Figure 2.3.3).

The share of associate professionals among the jobs advertised increased from 42 percent in 2009
to 67 percent in 2010. (See Appendix Table 2.3 F). The primary education teaching associate
professionals constituted 44 percent of the total advertisements during 2010, and was the single
largest occupation group advertised. This was followed by the nurses and midwife category with 7
percent. The ranking for other occupations fluctuated from year to year.

2.3.3.3 Re-advertised jobs

In 2010, out of 24,372 jobs advertised, 353 (one percent) were re-advertised as indicated in Table
2.3.3. The majority of the re-advertised jobs were for associate professionals (54 percent). This was
followed by the professional category with 38 percent during 2010. There were fewer jobs re-
advertised in 2010 compared to 2009. For all the years before 2010, the majority of the re-
advertised jobs were for professionals.

2.3.4 The Civil Service

The civil service is composed of those persons in the traditional civil service, teaching service
(primary and secondary), police, prisons, public universities and in the local governments. However,
it excludes employees of government semi autonomous institutions and parastatals. There are
variations in the size of the civil service in different months within a year. So, the average size of the
civil service is considered. The Table 2.3.4 indicates that the average size of the civil service in 2010
was 263,854 persons, an increase of about two percent from 259,650 persons in 2009.

2.3.5 Employment and annual wage bill for selected manufacturing establishments

The information given here is based on data collected from major manufacturing establishments
selected for the compilation of the Index of Industrial Production
(100), as well as the Producer Price Index (PPI). The number of establishments covered each year
varies.

  21
For purposes of trend studies/time series comparison, a total of 121 establishments of all the major
manufacturing establishments as well as hotels and restaurants that have data for both number of
employees and labour costs between 2008 and 2010 have been considered. Because of increased
coverage beyond manufacturing, the base year of 2008 is to be maintained for future computation of
the index.

In 2010, the number of employees decreased by about seven percent in relation to 2009, the wage
bill increased by 11 percent while the monthly average earnings increased by 20 percent as
indicated in Table 2.3.5.

The food processing, beverage and tobacco group was the most dominant industry with one third of
the selected manufacturing and hotel establishments, 52 percent share of the total employment and
28 percent share of the monthly wage bill during 2010. The paper, publishing and printing industry
had the 8 percent share of the monthly average employment but with about 29 percent share of the
monthly wage bill as indicated in Statistical Appendix Tables 2.3 F, and 2.3 G.

Employees in the food processing, beverage and tobacco group earned the least average monthly
income of shs, 230,000. Those in the manufacture of paper, publishing and printing group had the
highest average income of shs. 1,676,000 as indicated in Statistical Appendix Tables 2.3 H.

2.3.6 The Labour Cost Index

A Labour Cost Index is a measure of the rate of change in the total labour cost. It shows also the
labour costs relative to the base period in the selected manufacturing and hotel establishments. It
provides a better understanding of how specific labour markets adjust to changes in the demand
and supply and is therefore a timely measure of wage pressure.

The indicators presented here are based on statistics of the total monthly wages paid in the
manufacturing and hotel establishments covered, which generally cover the formal or “modern”
sector of an economy. They do not include data on self-employment income or informal sector
activities.

The results in figure 2.3.4 show that Labour Cost Index in nominal and real terms in relation to 2008.
The nominal Labour wage rose by 24 percent in 2010. The Labour Cost Index in real terms dropped
slightly below 100 in 2009 but increased to 105.6 during 2010. The Labour Cost Index in real terms
grew by a modest 6 percent in relation to its value during 2008.

Amongst the manufacturing groups and hotel sectors the manufacture of Chemicals paint, soap and
foam had the highest labour cost index increase of 46 percent in nominal terms and 24 percent in
real terms. (See Appendix Table 2.3 J). The lowest increase in the labour cost was for the hotels
and restaurants (7 percent). The Labour Cost Index in real terms for the hotels and restaurants
declined to 91 percent of its 2008 value during the same period.

2.3.7 Employment and Earnings

The employment and earnings survey was designed to collect data on employment, earnings by
occupations, hours of work, and details on job vacancies and occupational accidents and injuries.
The Employment and Earnings Survey was intended to cover all establishments employing 15
persons or more in six kinds of activity namely Manufacturing, Construction, Hotels, Education
(private schools), Health (private health institutions) and Horticulture. These were selected from the
Uganda Business Register of 2006.

A total of 655 and 491 establishments were covered during 2008 and 2009 respectively. They had a
total employment of 38,812 and 35,116 persons respectively. The overall median monthly income
was shs. 140,000 in 2008 and it remained the same during 2009. Persons employed in agriculture
earned the lowest median monthly income of shs. 88,000 in 2009 compared to shs. 121,000 in
2008. All employees worked more than 40 hours per week, with hotel employees working the
longest hours per week (72 hours).

Table 2.3.7 shows the distribution of the most common occupations by median monthly income and
average hours worked a week. The results indicate that the agricultural, fishery and related
labourers were the least paid with a median monthly income of shs 54,900. These were followed by
the cleaners and cooks who received the second lowest median monthly income shs 70,000. The
trend is almost similar during the previous survey. The matrons worked for the longest number of
hours a week yet they were among the least paid.

2.4 Household Expenditure and Poverty

Household Expenditure and poverty data have been useful in monitoring the living standards of
Ugandans. However, household consumption expenditure is usually preferred over income in
assessing poverty incidence as it is more accurately reported by the households/individuals. The
2009/10 Uganda National Household Survey collected information on consumption expenditure on
food, beverages and tobacco and non-consumption expenditure of households, among others3.

2.4.1 Consumption expenditure per household

The Figure 2.4.1 below presents the monthly consumption expenditure per household for 2005/06
and 2009/10 after adjusting for inflation using the 2005/06 prices. Uganda’s average household
monthly expenditure rose from Shs. 210,750 in 2005/06 to Shs. 232,700 in 2009/10, representing a
real increase of 10.4 percent within this period. The increase was mainly driven by increases in
rural areas (11.8 percent) while the urban areas registered an increase of only 3 percent between
the same period. Refer to Table 2.4 A in appendix.

All regions experienced a positive change between the two surveys. The increase in consumption
expenditure was more pronounced in the Northern region (34 percent) while the Western region
registered the lowest increase (3 percent). A notable negative change in consumption per household
was observed in urban areas of western and eastern regions.

2.4.2 Real Consumption Expenditure Per Capita

In nominal terms, the results indicated that per capita consumption expenditure increased from Shs.
41,300 in 2005/06 to Shs. 72,250 per month in 2009/10, representing a nominal increase of 75
percent.

However, after deflating the nominal expenditure by CPI, the results reveal that on average, the per
capita expenditure increased from Shs.40,550 to Shs. 47,150 (Appendix Table 2.4B). The Northern
region had the highest real per capita expenditure increase from Shs. 21,500 to Shs. 28,400 (about
32%). Proportionately the Central region (excluding Kampala City) also registered a 31 percent real
increase. The lowest increase (9.6 percent) was observed in eastern region from Shs. 31,800 to

2.4.3 Share of Household Expenditure by Item Group

The trends in the share of each item group in the total household expenditure including non-
consumption expenditures are presented in Table 2.4.3. In 2009/10, the share of food, drinks and
tobacco in total household expenditure remained the highest at 45 percent, followed by expenditure
on rent, fuel and energy at 16 percent.

The share of these two item groups remained the same as observed in 2005/06. There was a slight
nominal increase in the share of food, drink and tobacco in the rural areas while a slight nominal
decrease was observed in the urban areas. The share of the other expenditure item groups
remained generally the same between the two survey periods.

2.4.4 Poverty Trend Estimates

Table 2.4.4 presents the poverty statistics for the 2009/10, 2005/06 and 2002/03 surveys. The
absolute poverty line defined in Appleton (2001), was obtained after applying the method of
Ravallion and Bidani (1994) to data from the First Monitoring Survey of 1993 has been used. This
method focused on the cost of meeting calorific needs, given the food basket of half the population,
  26
giving allowance for non-food needs. Three poverty indicators: namely P0, P1 and P2 (see Foster,
Greer and Thorbecke, 1984) are reported. The P0 indicator is “head count” that is the percentage of
individuals estimated to be living in households with real private consumption per adult equivalent
below the poverty line.

The P1 indicator is the “poverty gap”. This is the summation over all individuals of the shortfall of
their real private consumption per adult equivalent from the poverty line, divided by the poverty line.
One way to interpret the P1 is that it gives the per capita cost of eradicating poverty, as a
percentage of the poverty line, if money could be targeted perfectly.

The P2 indicator is the “squared poverty gap”. This is the summation over all individuals of the
square of the shortfall of their real private consumption per adult equivalent and the poverty line
divided by the poverty line. The reason to square the shortfall is to give greater weight to those who
are living far below the line. Thus, whereas P0 measures how widespread poverty is, P1 measures
how poor the poor are and, by giving more weight to the poorest of the poor, P2 gives an indication
of how severe poverty is.

Based on the 2009/10 survey data, it was estimated that 24.5 percent of Ugandans were poor,
corresponding to nearly 7.5 million persons. Table 2.4.4 provides more detailed statistics, broken
down by region and rural-urban areas. The incidence of poverty remained higher in rural areas (27.2
percent) compared to urban areas (9.1 percent).

The results in Table 2.4.4 revealed that the percentage of the people living in absolute poverty
declined significantly between 2009/10 and 2005/06 by 6.6 percentage points, corresponding to a
reduction of 0.9 million persons in absolute terms. The other poverty indicators (P1 and P2
measures) follow a similar trend as the headcount index. Thus, the main finding is that the incidence
of income poverty declined significantly between UNHS 2005/06 and UNHS 2009/10 for Uganda as
a whole.

A significant decline in poverty levels was observed in both rural and urban areas between 2005/06
and 2009/10. However, the incidence of poverty remains far higher in the rural areas than urban
areas. The rural areas where about 85 percent of the population resides still contribute 94 percent to
national poverty.

The decrease in poverty between the surveys is most marked in the Northern region – where the
headcount declined from 60.7 percent to 46.2 percent (that is, from 3.25 million to 2.84 million
persons in poverty, respectively). In relative terms, this suggests 14.5 percentage points drop in the
poverty headcount, well above the nation-wide average of 6.6 percentage points. This reduction is
driven by adverse trends in the urban areas from 39.7 percent to 19.7 percent but we should take
note of the significant reduction in rural areas to the magnitude of 15.2 percentage points. The
proportion of people in poverty in Eastern region declined from 35.9 percent to 24.3 percent that is,
from 2.45 million to 2.2 million persons in poverty. The decline is driven by the rural areas, which
experienced a 12.7 percentage point drop. In the Central region, the decline in the headcount
indicator from 16.4 percent to 10.7 percent is statistically significant at conventional levels. Only the
Western region had the least change in income poverty, with a slight increase in the headcount from
20.5 percent to 21.8 percent. In absolute numbers, the persons living in poverty in western region
increased from 1.44 million in 2005/06 to 1.6 million in 2009/10 , but the change is not statistically
significant.

While the regional rankings of P1 and P2 are identical to the headcount index, there are some
differences in the magnitudes. The cost of eliminating poverty in the Northern region as based on
the poverty gap is 1.2 times of the national average. On average, every poor individual residing in
Northern region would require Shs 86,953 (in 2005/06 prices) per month to climb above the poverty
line. By contrast, the poor in Central region would require fewer resources of SHS57,695 (in 2005/06
prices). There are no notable significant changes in the poverty gap and severity of poverty in the
Western region (both rural and urban), and urban areas of the Eastern and Central region.

2.4.5 Inequality in Household Consumption

Table 2.4.5 reports the Gini coefficients as a measure of inequality in household consumption per
adult equivalent. Based on 2009/10, inequality of income as measured by the Gini coefficient stood
at 0.426. Decomposing by location, inequality was driven largely by urban areas. Inequality varies
from a low of 0.319 in Eastern region to a high of 0.451 in Central region. Individuals in the Eastern
region are least unequal, while the most unequal are in the Central region.

Since the distribution of income became less unequal between the 2002/03 and 2005/06 surveys,
and growth in consumption was positive and strong, it is not surprising that poverty declined during
the period.

2.4.6 Summary of Findings

On average the period 2005/06 to 2009/10 recorded positive growth in per adult consumption
although the growth was not as strong as that observed between 2002/03 and 2005/06. It is further
observed that growth between the two recent surveys seems to have benefited more the affluent
than the average Ugandans. While the proportion of people living in poverty significantly declined,
the reduction in number of poor persons – in absolute terms – was not significant; and inequality of
income worsened. In other words, while Uganda seems to have met the MGD 1 of halving income
poverty target earlier than 2015, worsening distribution of income and high population growth if not
addressed are likely to reverse the trends.

2.5 Health

This section presents statistics on some of the key aspects of public health for the last five years
(2006-2010). The aspects covered in this section include status of health facilities and staffing
levels, immunisation coverage, morbidity and selected health sector performance indicators.

2.5.1 Health Units

The Health Facility Inventory is compiled by the Ministry of Health and collects information on
Hospitals and Health Centres. Health Centres include Health Centre II, III and IV. The health facility
inventory carried out in 2006 showed that a total of 113 hospitals were in place, and 59 of these
were government hospitals, 46 were Private Not for Profit (PNFP) and 8 were owned by Private For
Profit (PFP). Information for 2009 and 2010 shows that the total number of Hospitals has increased
from 113 in 2006 to 131 in 2010 as shown in Table 2.5.1 below.

2.5.1.1 Hospitals and Bed Capacity

Hospitals in Uganda are categorised as Referral, Regional and General Hospitals. According to the
Ministry of Health annual report 2010. The total number of hospitals is 131 , there were 2 referral
hospitals, 12 Regional hospitals owned by government and 117 general hospitals, Private Not For
Profit (PNFP) and Private For Profit (PFP). Figure 2.5.1A below shows that about (48 percent) of the
hospitals in the country are Government owned and 46 percent are PNFP units, and only 6 percent
are Private For Profit.

In terms of bed capacity, 55 percent of the hospital beds available are government owned, 43
percent are owned by Private Not For Profit (PNFP) and only 3 percent are Private For Profit as
shown in figure 1.

The Ministry of Health stipulates that steady availability of beds can result in speedy admissions for
planned (elective) surgery, admission to appropriate wards (medical visa vis surgical, male visa vis
female etc), timely admission of emergency patients, and transfers of existing inpatients between
wards, which "may add a day to a patient’s length of stay".
Statistical Appendix Table 2.5B gives the number of hospital beds in General Hospitals by
ownership status as of June 2010. Only the PFP owned hospitals in the districts of Kampala,
Bushenyi and Mbarara were reported to have beds.

2.5.2 Immunisation Coverage

Immunisation of children against diseases is essential in reducing infant and child mortality. The
World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that the newly borne should be vaccinated against
all the vaccine-preventable diseases by the age of 12 months. The antigens given include; BCG
(against tuberculosis), DPT-HepB-Hib (against Diphtheria, Pertusis, Tetanus, Hepatitis B,
Haemophilias influenzae), Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) against poliomyelitis and a measles vaccine.

Information on routine immunisation coverage is collected by the Uganda National Expanded

Programme on Immunisation (UNEPI) from all health facilities in the country. Figure 2.5.2 presents
the level of immunisation coverage during the last five years (2006-2010) among children less than
one year of age.

Figure 2.5.2 indicates that BCG vaccine has consistently been leading in coverage except in the
year 2006 when measles vaccine took the lead. Statistical Appendix Tables 2.5C to 2.5F give
detailed antigen specific immunisation rates for the various districts for the period 2006 to 2010.

2.5.3 Morbidity

Table 2.5.2 shows that Malaria has been the highest ranked cause of morbidity in Uganda over the
past five years, followed by Cough or Cold without pneumonia. The proportion of persons presenting
intestinal worms, skin diseases and pneumonia causes of morbidity slightly increased in 2010.

Table 2.5.3 shows that among the children under five years who were diagnosed in the year ending
2010, the leading causes of morbidity were Injuries other than road accidents (21 percent), Gastro-
Intestinal Disorders (20 percent), Anaemia (18 percent) as well as oral diseases and conditions (18
percent). These collectively accounted for over 75 percent of childhood morbidity.

Table 2.5.3 also shows the percent distribution of non-communicable diseases among persons aged
5 years and above. Gastro-Intestinal Disorders (affecting 27 percent) ranks highest followed by
injuries due to other causes other than road traffic accident, contributing 22 percent.

2.5.4 Health Sector performance indicators

There are various indicators that are used by the Ministry of Health to measure the performance of
the Health Sector. These include Outpatients Department utilisation in government and Private Not
For Profit (PNFP) health units, pit latrine coverage, TB cases notified compared to expected and
pregnant women who reported receiving a 2nd dose of Fansidar for Intermittent Presumptive
Treatment (IPT) of malaria.

2.5.4.1 Out Patient Department Utilisation

The government and PNFP OPD utilisation per person per year (OPD Per Capita) is among the
Health Sector major indicators. It measures utilisation of health services in both government and
PNFP health facilities and is used as the national proxy for access to health care services.

It is expected that each individual should visit a health unit at least once in a year. During the year
2010 this indicator stood at 0.9; while it was 0.8 in the previous year 2009. Much as we notice an
improvement it is still below the health sector target of 1. Details of the Districts performance can be
seen in the Appendix Table 2.5G.

2.5.4.2 Pit Latrine Coverage

Pit latrine coverage is used as a proxy to measure for access to appropriate sanitation facilities. The
Pit Latrine Coverage at national level increased from 58 percent in 2007 to 68 percent in 2009 and
in 2010 it increased to 69 percent as can be seen in Figure 2.5.4. The Appendix Table 2.5H
presents Pit Latrine Coverage at District level.

2.5.4.3 Deliveries in Health Facilities

The Deliveries in Health Facilities indicator measures the proportion of births taking place in health
facilities. Delivery in health facilities have continued to improve. In 2009, 34 percent of the deliveries
were in health facilities. However in 2010, it dropped by one percentage point to 33 percent. (See
Appendix Table 2.6 I)

2.5.4.4 Other Health Sector Performance Indicators

In addition to the above indicators, there are other indicators on the performance of the Health
Sector. Appendix Table 2.6 J shows that slightly more than half (57 percent) of expected TB cases
in Uganda were notified in 2009 and in the year 2010 the cases dropped to 55 percent. The
proportion of pregnant women who reported receiving a 2nd dose of Fansidar for Intermittent
Presumptive Treatment (IPT) of malaria has been increasing over time. In 2010, the proportion
dropped to 40 percent compared to 43 percent reported in 2009. Appendix Table 2.5 J gives the
status of the selected health sector performance indicators by district.

2.6 Crime

This section covers statistics on various forms of crimes reported to the Uganda Police Force and
traffic statistics such as road traffic accidents and their causes. Also included are Prison statistics
such as information on offenders and convicts, among others.

2.6.1 Reported and investigated cases

Between 2009 and 2010 there was a decline of 7 percent and 4 percent in the number of reported
crimes and investigated cases respectively. The ratio of investigated cases to reported cases has
continued to decline to 38 percent for 2010 compared to 36.9 percent in 2009.

2.6.2 Serious crimes

The Uganda Police Force classifies serious crimes to include aggravated robbery, defilement,
murder, rape, burglary and child stealing. Table 2.6.1 and Appendix Table 2.6 B indicate that
defilement was the most common serious crime, accounting for over 46.7 percent of all the serious
crimes in 2010.

2.6.3 Prisoners

The Uganda Prisons Services has categorised these into two; that is, convicts and prisoners on
remand. Table 2.6.2 indicates an increase of 6 percent in the total number of prisoners between
2009 and 2010. The number of convicts increased by 12.0 percent over the same period. The table
further indicates that 47 percent of the prisoners were convicted in 2010.

2.6.6.4 Time of road accidents

The highest number of road accidents (29 percent) occurred between 4:00pm-8:00pm for all road
accident categories. The lowest occurrence was between 12:00 am and 4:00 am (5 percent). This
was as a result of the less traffic activity at night as shown in figure 2.6.2 below.

2.6.6.5 Types of Vehicles involved in road accidents

Table 2.6.8 indicates a small increase of 1 percent in the number of vehicles that were involved in
road accidents between 2009 and 2010. Heavy omnibus vehicles registered the highest increase
(11 percent) over the same period. A total of 34,412 vehicles were involved in road accidents during
2010. Over 34.3 percent of the vehicles involved in road accidents in 2010 were Motor cars,
followed by 23.4 percent for motor cycles and light omnibuses (14.4 percent) These collectively
  accounted for over 70 percent of all vehicles involved in road accidents.

2.6.6.6 Causes of road accidents

Table 2.6.9 below indicates that careless and reckless/ dangerous driving were the leading causes
of road accidents in 2010, with 41.0 and 29.0 percent respectively. The table further indicates that
dazzling lights by another vehicle as a cause of accidents had the highest percentage increase (34
percent) between 2009 and 2010.

2.6.7 Express Penalty Scheme

About 212,000 tickets were sold on the Express Penalty Scheme in 2010. This indicates a drastic
increase in the number of tickets sold (107 percent) between 2009 and 2010. Table 2.6.10 further
indicates an increase of 40 percent in the amount of money that was realised from the sale of tickets
on the express penalty scheme. This increase was achieved as a result of the vigorous
implementation of the Traffic Operational Policing Plan.

2.7 Community Statistics

2.7.1 Introduction
The Community Information System (CIS) is a government programme that has been established to
generate information from households and communities on a regular basis. The information is used
for planning, monitoring and evaluation of service delivery. The communities also use that
information to demand for the services they need for poverty eradication.

2.7.2 Districts that are Implementing CIS

To date, the programme has expanded to 49 districts distributed across the country with a plan to
expand even further to cover the whole country. However, this goal cannot be achieved at a go. The
implementation is, therefore done in a phased manner where new districts, five on average, are
brought on board each financial year. Table 1 shows the composition of districts in each phase. The
selection criteria is based on geographical location, level of development (best and worst), presence
of Islands as part of the district, population size as per the 2002 Uganda Housing and population
Census, UNICEF supported districts in the case of Lango sub-region, disaster prone districts,
demand driven factors and promised co-financing by a district.

3 Production Statistics

3.1 Agriculture and Fisheries

This section presents statistics on cash crop production , food crop production, livestock and fish
catch.

Although the contribution of agriculture to total GDP has been declining over the years, the sector
has continued to dominate the Ugandan economy. It contributed approximately 21 percent of the
Gross Domestic Product in 2010 at current prices and about 46 percent to the total export earnings
in 2010. Furthermore, 65.6 percent of the working population is employed in the agriculture, forestry
and fishing Industry

3.1.1 Cash Crops

Statistical Appendix Table 3.1A gives procurement data on traditional cash crops for the period
2005-2010.

There was an overall 14.3 percent decline in the quantity of coffee procured in 2010 due to a big
decline (20.5 percent) in the procurement of Robusta Coffee which is more grown than arabica
coffee. It is worth noting that in the case of coffee, quantities procured are used as a proxy to
production. Coffee still has the highest share of export earnings (see figure 3.1.1).

Tea and Tobacco registered increments of 1.1 and 46.5 percentage points respectively in 2010 from
2009. The detail is shown in table 3.1A.

3.1.3 Fish catch by water body

Open water covers 15.3 percent of Uganda’s surface and this comprises five major lakes (Victoria,
Albert, Kyoga, Edward and George) which are the main contributors to fish catch in the country. The
statistical table 3.1 D provides data on fish catch by water body for the period 2006 to 2010.

Lake Victoria is the largest water body by size in Uganda and remains the biggest contributor to
total fish catch. Its share of catch was 60.4 percent in 2009 and 57.7 percent in 2010. The catch
share of Lake Victoria was followed by lake Kyoga then Lake Albert in both 2009 and 2010 as
shown in figure 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 respectively.

  45
Generally, the small increment in fish catch was mainly due to inadequate capacity of Beach
Management Units (BMUs) in fisheries management, resurgence of the water hyacinth and the
emergence of new water weeds, lack of species-specific management plans, use of in appropriate
fishing gears .

3.1.4 Livestock
The number of livestock/poultry increased by 3 percent. Similar to the period 2008-2009,
livestock/poultry numbers increased between 2009 and 2010 by about 3 percent. These increments
were attributed to the steady efforts to control animal diseases and improvement in the livestock
production systems as a result of routine livestock extension interventions. Figure 3.2.4 shows how
the number of livestock between 2008 and 2010. The detail data on livestock numbers by type is
provided in appendix table 3.1E.

3.2.1 Index of Production (Manufacturing)

The Index of Production (IoP) measures monthly trends in the volume of production of the
manufacturing sector in the country. The index is computed using mainly deflated sales values to
measure change in production. In addition procured quantities from relevant authorities are used as
a proxy for produced quantities to estimate processing of agricultural products.

The establishments covered are those employing five or more persons and located largely in the
industrial belt of the country. These include Kasese, Bushenyi, Mbarara, Masaka, Wakiso, Kampala,
Mukono, Jinja, Bugiri, Tororo and Mbale Districts. A few establishments in the districts of Hoima and
Masindi are also covered.

The ‘All Items’ index increased by 3 percent in 2010. This was largely due to an increase in
production of mainly Bricks and Cement as well as Drinks and Tobacco by 25.9 and 7.7 percent
respectively (Appendix Table 3.2 A)

3.3.3 Electricity
Electricity is produced from both thermal and hydro plants. The total installed capacity of electric
power plants that feed into the national grid increased by 9 percent from 492 Mega Watts (MW) in
2009 to 539.5 MW in 2010. Table 3.4 C: in Appendix shows that the increase in the overall
installed capacity was due to additional installation capacities at Mpanga and Ishasha (hydro
plants) totalling to 24.5 MW and by Electromax (thermal plant) of 20 MW.

3.3.4 Trend of Electricity Purchases by UETCL

Electricity purchases by UETCL from both the main hydro plant and the thermal plants that
supply power to the main grid was 2,819 GWh in 2010 compared to 2,533 GWh in 2009. This
represents a 11.3 percent increase in power purchase in 2010 by the Transmission Company

3.5.1 Transport Statistics

Transport statistics cover information on roads, water, rail and air transport.

3.5.1.1 Road Transport

The road transport sector has over the years recorded tremendous growth in the number of vehicles
registered. The table below shows that although the number of registered vehicles has been
increasing over the years since 2006, this trend reversed in 2009 with approximately a 1 percent
decrease in newly registered vehicles. However, the number of newly registered vehicles increased
by 2 percent in 2010 justifying the increased petrol and diesel consumption explained in section 3.3

3.5.2 Communication statistics

3.5.2.1 Telephone usage

The Telecommunications sub-sector continued to experience substantial increases in the number of

both cellular and fixed telephone subscribers. The number of subscribers increased by 37 percent in
2010 due to tarrif reductions and increased area coverage by Warid and Orange (U)
telecommunication companies. This resulted in a teledensity of 41.4 percent (41.4 lines per 100
persons).

Total telephone connections rose by 3,538,111 new subscribers in 2010 compared to 893,922 new
subscribers in 2009 translating into 37 percent and 40 percent increase in mobile and fixed
connections during the year. (See statistical appendix table 3.5A).

A growth of 40.5 percent was recorded in 2010 in regard to total volume of talk time traffic as shown
in Table 3.5 E. The growth in talk time traffic was as a result of increased service penetration and
usage resulting from increased promotions and introduction of unlimited calling pricing schemes.

Outgoing international price talk time traffic also grew by 7.4 percent from 121 million minutes in
2009 to 130 million minutes in 2010.

3.5.2.3 Call tariffs

Increased competition in the sector coupled with falling wholesale bandwidth prices in the sector
have resulted in general price reductions in both the domestic and international voice markets. By
the end of the year 2010, the average domestic call rate had dropped to an average of 3 shillings
per second (180 shillings per minute) from the 392 shillings off net average at the end of 2009. In
the international segment, the average per minute call rate for international calls had dropped to 250
shillings from the 400 shillings average per minute at the end of 2009.

3.5.2.3 Internet Market

The emerging importance of mobile wireless internet accounts continued with an estimated 510,000
wireless accounts and 31,000 fixed internet accounts at the end of 2010. This was primarily due to
falling prices as well as promotions of modems, laptops and data enabled handsets in addition the
entry of new service providers such as Foris telecom, Maisha and Roke Telecom.

Overall, a 59.1 percent growth was realized in the number of internet subscribers. Mobile internet
subscribers grew by 64 percent in 2010 while fixed internet subscription increased by 3 percent.
The estimated number of internet users in 2010 was 4 million with the majority accessing the
internet through shared mediums such as places of work, education institutions and public cafes.

approaches as household consumption expenditure estimated as a residue between the two
approaches.

4.1.2.1 Final consumption expenditure

The final consumption expenditure includes household and government consumption expenditure.
The sector grew by 7.3 percent in 2010/11 compared to the 9.9 percent growth registered in
2009/10. It remains the major contributor to the GDP estimation with a 104.3 percent share to the

percent in 2009/10. Exports and imports had a share of 10.8 percent and a negative 39.2 percent
respectively.

4.1.2.4 GDP by expenditure at 1 digit level basic heading

Table 4.1 N gives GDP by expenditure at one digit basic heading level. The table gives a summary
of the 200 basic headings of expenditure on GDP, necessary for the computation of the Purchasing
Power Parities (PPP). This breakdown gives the weights used in the International Comparison
Programme (ICP) for PPP computations. The total expenditure on GDP at current prices in 2010
was shillings 37 trillion.

4.1.3 Balance of Payment

The overall balance of payments preliminary figure for 2010/11 reveals a deficit of 563.8 million US
dollars in 2010/11 compared to a surplus of 210.9 million US dollars in 2009/10. (Statistical
Appendix Table 4.1 M.)

4.1.3.1 Current account

The current account is projected to register a deficit of 1,559.8 million US dollars in 2010/11
compared to a deficit of 1,439.9 million US dollars in 2009/10. The deficit was mainly due to the
negative trade balance and service & income account.

4.1.3.2 Trade Balance.

The trade balance has worsened from a deficit of 1,697.6 million US dollars in 2009/10 to 2,112.7
million US dollars deficit in 2010/11. The deficit in 2010/11 is due to the value of exports earnings
estimated at only 2,431.2 million US dollars, compared to the higher value of imports estimated at
4,543.9 million US dollars.

4.1.3.3 Service and Income

The net inflow of services and income for the year 2010/11 is projected at negative 980.4 million US
dollars compared to negative 816.2 million US dollars in 2009/10. The service account and income
account are projected at negative 665.8 million US dollars and 314.6 Million US dollars respectively
during 2010/11.

4.1.3.4 Capital and financial account

The capital and financial account is projected to increase by 819.8 million US dollars in 2010/11
compared to 1,632.1 million US dollars in 2009/10, a decrease of 50.2 percent.

4.2 Price Indices

4.2.1 Consumer Price Index

This section presents statistics on Consumer Price Indices for household consumption of goods and
services. Included are price indices of eight urban centers, a Composite Consumer Price Index
which is the combined index for the eight centres’ CPIs and Kampala Low and Middle Centre
average market prices for selected goods. Kampala was demarcated into two areas basing on the
consumption pattern of households and their points of purchase. The eight urban centres included in
the CPI are: Kampala High Income, Kampala Middle and Low Income (including Entebbe), Jinja,
Mbale, Masaka, Mbarara, Gulu and Arua. The price indices are computed at two stages. The first
stage is the elementary aggregate level where elementary indices are computed using the
geometric mean approach. The second stage is the computation of higher level indices which are
arrived at as a weighted average of the elementary aggregate indices.

4.2.1.1 The Headline Consumer Price Index

The headline Index is the measure of the relative changes in prices of all the goods and services for
the consumption basket. The 2010 Calendar Year registered single digit inflation rate of 4.0 percent
following the 13.0 percent inflation rate recorded for 2009. The lower overall inflation rate recorded
for 2010 was due to seasonal factors that reduced food prices inflation and telecom call charges that
reduced significantly during the year. The financial year 2009/10 also registered single digit inflation
of 9.4 percent on top of the 14.1 percent recorded in 2008/09 (see statistical Appendix: Table 4.2A
and Table 4.2D).

For the financial year 2009/10, annual headline inflation recorded for the eight urban centres was as
follows: Kampala High Income recorded 8.0 percent, Kampala Middle and Low Income recorded 9.3
percent, Jinja recorded 9.8 percent, Mbale recorded 9.8, Masaka recorded 9.4 percent, Mbarara
recorded the highest inflation of 13.7 percent, Gulu recorded10.2 percent and Arua recorded the
lowest inflation of 5.4 percent (see Statistical Appendix Tables 4.2E to 4.2L)

4.2.1.2 The Core Index

The core index measures relative changes in prices of all the goods and services in the
consumption basket excluding food crops, electricity, fuel and metered water. The core inflation rate
reduced significantly to 4.8 percent in 2010 from 10.5 percent for 2009.The decrease is mainly
attributed to a significant reduction in transport and communication inflation from 2.4 percent in 2009
to negative 1.4 percent in 2010 caused by reduced telecom call charges. The financial year 2009/10
recorded a slightly higher annual core inflation rate of 7.8 percent compared to the calendar
year.(see statistical Appendix: Table 4.2B).
 
4.2.1.3 The Food-Crops Index
The Food crops index increased by 1.5 percent during 2010 compared to rise of 31.9 percent for
2009. The financial year 2009/10 registered slightly lower food crops inflation of 24.5 percent
compared to 27.1 percent recorded for 2008/09. The lower food crop inflation is attributed to
seasonal factors (see Statistical Appendix Table 4.2B).

4.2.1.4 The Energy, Fuel and Utilities Index (E F U).

Despite reduced electricity charges (9 percent), EFU inflation increased to 1.2 percent in 2010
compared to negative 1.9 percent recorded in 2009. The rise in the EFU index is attributed to high
metred water charges and liquid fuel prices registered during the year (see statistical Appendix:
Table 4.2B).

  66
4.2.2 Producer Price Index - Manufacturing

The Producer Price Index – Manufacturing (PPI-M) measures changes in effective prices received
by Manufacturers for their goods produced and sold on both the Local and Export Markets. It reflects
the price trends of a fixed basket of goods that represent the output of selected business
establishments. The coverage of the PPI so far is for the manufacturing sector and the structure of
the PPI-M is such that goods produced for the local market represent 79 percent while goods
produced for the export market account for 21 percent.

4.2.2.1 PPI-M (Combined) Annual Change

The Producer Price Index–Manufacturing (Combined) recorded an increase of 8.3 percent in the
calendar year 2010, mainly due to a rise in prices of Food Processing by 10.4 percent, Drinks and
Tobacco by 14.8 percent. The Producer Price Index increased by 13.5 percent in the Financial Year
2009/10 (See Statistical Appendix Table 4.2N and 4.2O) mainly as a result of increase in prices of
Processed Food by 13.3 percent and Drinks and Tobacco by 32.8 percent as shown in Table 4.2.1
and 4.2.2 respectively below.

4.2.3 The Producer Price Index- Hotels & Restaurants
The Producer Price Index for Hotels and Restaurants (PPI- H&R) is an output price index which
measures changes in the basic prices received by the Hotel and Restaurant service providers for a
fixed basket of selected services. The prices considered exclude all taxes and other levies, that is, it
takes into account the price retained by the service providers. The base period for this index is the
first quarter of 2008 and covers a sample of 100 Hotels and Restaurants with a monthly turn-over of
at least 10 million shillings.

4.2.3.1 Annual Quarterly changes in the Hotel Sector

The Overall PPI-H&R rose by 4.0 percent in 2010 compared to 13.5 percent in 2009. Thus, over the
year 2010, prices in the Hotel and Restaurants sector have been observed to be more stable across
the four quarters and increased by less margins compared to 2009. Prices for Accommodation
Services fell by 2.3 percent whereas Catering Services experienced price increments of 11.9
percent. Thus, across 2010 catering services in the Hotel sector experienced higher price
increments than accommodation services whereas across 2009, accommodation services exhibited
higher price increments. (See Statistical Appendix Table 4.2P)

4.2.4 Construction Sector Indices
The Construction Sector Index (CSI) is an input price index which measures the cost of a given set
(basket) of construction goods and services, relative to their cost in the base period. The first
quarter (i.e. January-March) of 2006 is the base period for the CSI.

4.2.4.1 CSI Composition

CSI is composed of basic heading and composite indices. Basic headings are the smallest
compositions of related goods or services which are used to compile composite indices. Each basic
heading covers a reasonably homogeneous set of goods or services. For example, items within a
basic heading are likely to be made from the same material. A list of basic headings is given in
Statistical Appendix Table 4.2 Q

4.2.4.2 Annual Changes

Prices of inputs in the overall construction sector rose by 8 percent in 2010. All categories of the
sub-sectors experienced a rise in prices of inputs. Inputs into gravel roads under Civil Works
experienced the highest price increase of 22 per cent. See Statistical Appendix Table 4.2 Q

  69
4.3 External Trade

This section presents a summary of external trade statistics in value and quantity. It further presents
the direction of trade between Uganda and the rest of the world, where Uganda’s trading partners
have been classified according to continent, regional blocs and selected individual countries. The
compilation of external trade statistics was based on the General Trade System, with data compiled
from Customs and Non-Customs sources.

4.3.1.3 Trade Balance

The country’s trade deficit continued to deteriorate during the period under review, although there
was a marginal improvement recorded in 2009 as shown in table 4.3.1 below. The marginal
improvement in the 2009 trade deficit could be attributed to a reduction in both the imports bill and
the exports revenue occasioned by low demand which was in turn caused by the world economic
meltdown. Overall trade deficit grew to US $ 2,583.9 million in 2010 from US $ 1,973.5 million in
2009.

Table 4.3.1: Summary of trade flow statistics: 2006 – 2010 (million US $)

4.3.1.4 Overall Trade Exports

In 2010, merchandise exports stood at US $ 2,146.9 million, of which formal exports accounted for
US$ 1,618.6 million and informal exports for US $ 528.3 million. The export earnings declined by 9.3
percent in 2010 compared to a decline of 6.6 percent recorded in 2009. Although formal exports
increased slightly in 2010, informal exports reduced drastically by 33.8 percent on account of
reduced informal exports to South Sudan owing to tariff and non-tariff barriers imposed on Uganda’s
products and the general Sudanese government policy of reducing imports to preserve her foreign
exchange reserves.

4.3.1.5 Imports
The overall imports bill rose by 9.0 percent in 2010 to US$ 4,730.8 million compared to US$ 4,339.6
million recorded in 2009. The value of formal imports rose from US $ 4,257.6 million in 2009 to US $
4,664.3 million in 2010, an increase of 9.6 percent. This could be attributed to the rebound in the
global economy after the economic recession experienced in 2008. Meanwhile, informal imports
declined from US $ 82 million in 2009 to US $ 66.5 million in 2010 on account of improved customs
vigilance that ensured that most informally traded commodities were declared and taxed.

Figure 4.3.1 shows that imports maintained a general upward trend with a slight fall in 2009, while
exports declined in 2009. The trade balance on the other hand, continued to deteriorate, reaching its
worst levels in 2010.

4.3.2 Main Traded Commodities

4.3.2.1 Exports
In 2010, all traditional exports recorded a significant increase in export receipts except cotton whose
export revenue reduced to US$ 19.9 million from US$ 23.2 million in 2009. The quantity of cotton
exported dropped from 17,888 tonnes in 2009 to 11,891 tonnes in 2010. Meanwhile, the
contribution of Traditional Exports (TEs) to total formal exports earnings increased marginally from
26.8 percent in 2009 to 27.2 percent in 2010 on account of increased tea and tobacco export
revenue (Statistical Appendix Table 4.2C).

Coffee remained the main foreign exchange earner for the country, although its share to total export
earnings declined marginally from 17.9 percent in 2009 to 17.5 percent in 2010. Despite a significant
decline in quantity exported from 181,324 tonnes in 2009 to 159,433 tonnes in 2010, the coffee
export earnings increased from US$ 280.2 million to 283.9 million on account of improved prices on
the international market (Statistical Appendix Tables 4.2 A and 4.2 B).

During 2010, Tea and Tobacco attained the same market share of 4.2 percent of the total export
earnings, with both crops recording a significant increase in export receipts estimated at US$ 68.3
million and US$ 68.7 million respectively.

The contribution of Non-Traditional Exports (NTEs) to the total export earnings declined slightly from
73.2 percent in 2009 to 72.8 percent in 2010. Fish and fish products remained the main foreign
exchange earner in this category, with its contribution to total export earnings increasing to 7.9 in
2010 from 6.6 percent in 2009. The fish export revenue increased from US$ 103.4 million in 2009 to
127.7 million in 2010 on account of increased quantities exported.

The other NTEs that contributed significantly to the total export earnings in 2010 were cellular
telephones with a share of 4.9 percent, petroleum products (4.5 percent), cement (4.4 percent),
sugar and sugar confectionery (3.7 percent) as well as animal/vegetable fats and oils (3.4 percent).
Some of the goods under NTEs category are re-exports.

4.3.2.2 Imports
In 2010, Petroleum and petroleum products took the highest import bill of US$ 917.0 million followed
by Road Vehicles (including air-cushion vehicles) with US $ 418.8 million, then Telecommunications
Instruments with US$ 227.9 million and Iron and Steel value estimated at US 228.8
million.(Statistical Appendix Table 4.2 E)
  71
4.3.3 Direction of Trade

4.3.3.1 Exports
The Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the European Union (EU)
regional blocs remained the major destinations for Uganda’s exports. Overall, the COMESA region
took the largest market share (59.0 percent) in 2010 compared to 61.3 percent in 2009 (Statistical
Appendix Table 4.3 H). The European Union market share slightly increased to 17.0 percent in 2010
from 14.6 percent in 2009. Furthermore, the Middle East registered an increase in its market share
in 2010 to 6.1 percent after a consecutive decline in the previous years (Statistical Appendix Table
4.3 H).

Although Sudan remained the main export destination among COMESA Member States, its market
share fell drastically from 26.8 percent in 2009 to 18.9 percent in 2010. Conversely, DRC recorded a
significant increase in her market share from 12.7 percent in 2009 to 15.2 percent in 2010. Similarly,
both Kenya and Rwanda registered a slight increase in their market shares during the year 2010.
The other African countries outside COMESA region maintained a stable average market share from
2008 to 2010 ( 5.3 percent) with Tanzania taking the highest share of 4.2 percent in 2010.

The total export value to the EU region increased slightly from US $ 345.0 million in 2009 to US $
365.7 million in 2010 after an economic decline experienced in most parts of Europe. On the other
hand, exports to Asia increased marginally to US $ 103.7 million in 2010 from US $ 102.6 million in
2009. ( See appendix table 4.3 G)

4.3.3.2 Imports
The Asian continent remained the leading source of Uganda’s imports throughout the period under
review. Its imports share stood at 34.2 percent in 2008, and then rose to 37.1 percent and 41.8
percent in 2009 and 2010 respectively. Uganda’s main trading partners in the Asian continent were
India, China, Japan and Malaysia whose market shares were estimated at 14.5 percent, 8.8 percent,
6.5 percent and 2.1 percent in 2010 respectively (Statistical Appendix Tables 4.3 D and 4.3 M).

The African continent ranked second with an import bill increasing from US $957.8 million in 2009 to
US$ 992.9 million in 2010. ( See Statistical Appendix 4.3 D)

The main trading partners included Kenya with a market share of 11.6 percent, followed by South
Africa (5.3 percent) and Tanzania (1.3 percent). ( See Statistical Appendix 4.3 M).

The imports from the EU regional bloc declined from US$ 878.0 million in 2008 to US$ 752.8 million
in 2009 and then to US$ 727.5 million in 2010. The market share for the EU bloc decreased from
17.3 percent in 2009 to 15.4 percent in 2010. The Middle East countries maintained a stable market
share, in which United Arabs Emirates and Saudi Arabia took the lead with 8.3 percent and 5.1
percent respectively (Statistical Appendix Tables 4.3 D and 4.3 M). Although Kenya remained the
main source of Uganda’s informal imports, estimated at US $ 37.5 million in 2010 compared to US$
43.3 million in 2009, it was among the countries that recorded a significant reduction in the informal
imports bill together with DRC. (Statistical Appendix Tables 4.3 N and 4.3 O)

4.4 Government Finance Statistics

4.4.1 Introduction

This section presents Government Finance Statistics (GFS) to support the fiscal operations of the
general government. It further analyses government expenditure by economic and functional
classification. The fiscal statistical information is critical in guiding policy and decision makers to
analyse the impact of the fiscal operations at the level of a government, institutional sector and other
sectors of the economy.

4.4.2 Coverage

The Government Finance Statistics (GFS) compilation focuses on the General Government sector.
This sector consists of the central government, local government and non-profit institutions that are
controlled and financed by the government. It excludes social security funds, public corporations or
quasi-corporations.

4.4.3 Central Government revenue

During the FY 2009/10, the total revenue increased by 10.5 percent to Shs. 5,183.4 billion from Shs.
4,691.9 billion recorded in the FY 2008/09 as shown in table 4.4A. The share of tax revenue to total
revenue increased by 2.9 percentage points between FY 2008/09 and FY 2009/10. On the other
hand, the share of grants declined slightly by 2.0 percentage points in FY 2009/10. Taxes on goods
and services (VAT and Excise taxes) remains the main source of government revenue, whose share
to total revenue stabilized at about 44 percent in FY 2008/9 and 2009/10 as shown in the Statistical
Appendix Table 4.4 B (a) and Table 4.4 B (b).

4.4.4 Central Government Expenditure

In FY 2009/10, the General Public Administration had the highest share of the Central Government
Recurrent Expenditure of 44.9 percent, followed by Defence with 19.3 percent, and then Public
Order and Safety Affairs with 13.3 percent. This pattern is the same as in the previous years as
shown in Statistical Appendix Table 4.4 C (b).

For the Development Expenditure, Economic services (Roads, Agriculture & other economic
Services) had the largest share of 59.0 percent (Shs. 921.4 billion) in 2009/10 compared to 67.1
percent (Shs. 846.9 billion) registered in FY 2008/9. The high expenditure on this sector
emphasizes government commitment to improve on the economic infrastructural network particularly
roads to stimulate economic development. This was followed by the General Public Administration
which accounted for 15%, then Community and social services had 9.8 percent and the Public Order
and Safety Affairs had 6.5 percent of the Central Government Development Expenditure in 2009/10.
[See Statistical Appendix Table 4.4 D (a) & Statistical Appendix Table 4.4 D (b)].

The donor funds for development expenditure in 2009/10 were spent mainly on the Energy, Roads,
Health, and Education sectors. The Energy sector accounted for 21.8 percent (252,485 million) of
the donor funded development expenditure followed by roads with 13.3 percent (153,775 million)
and then the Health sector with 11.7 percent (135,874 million). (See Statistical Appendix Table 4.4
G (a) & Statistical Appendix Table 4.4 G (b)).

  73
4.4.5 Local Government recurrent expenditure

In the FY 2009/10, the Education sector had the largest share (Shs. 432.0 billion or 47.7 percent) of
the total local government recurrent expenditure, followed by the General Public Administration
function with 28.0 percent and then the Health Sector with 12.2 percent. Meanwhile, the Economic
Affairs and services function (Roads, Agriculture & other economic Services) had a combined share
7.5 percent compared to the share of 8.3 percent registered in the previous FY 2008/09. A similar
expenditure pattern was exhibited in the Urban Authorities and Districts recurrent expenses in
2009/10 and the previous financial years. Details are in Statistical Appendix Table 4.4J (a) and
Statistical Appendix Table 4.4J(b), Statistical Appendix Table 4.4 H (a) and Statistical Appendix
Table 4.4H (b).

4.5 Banking and Currency

This section presents statistics on monetary survey, interest rates, commercial banks’ assets and
liabilities, commercial banks’ outstanding loans and advances to the private sector, exchange rates
and the volumes of foreign exchange transactions from 2006 to 2010.

4.5.1 Monetary Survey

Table 4.5 A of the monetary survey shows that Net Foreign Assets increased by 11.8 percent from
Shs 5,711.5 Bill to Shs 6,383.9 Bill between June 2009 and June 2010.

The net domestic credit of the banking system in the period between June 2009 and June 2010
registered an increase of 61.0 percent. During the same period, net claims on the Central
Government greatly increased by 139.1 percent, claims on the private sector increased by 25.3
percent while foreign currency loans to residents increased by 33.0 percent.

During the same fiscal year, Money supply (M3) increased from Shs 6,297.6 billion to Shs 8,293.10
billion (25.0 percent) whereas Money supply (M2) increased by 30.3 percent from Shs 4,920.7 billion
to Shs 6,411.7 billion. Currency in circulation increased by 15.9 percent, private demand deposit
increased by 35.4 percent and private time and saving deposits increased by 35.0 percent.( See
Statistical Appendix Table 4.5A)

4.5.2 Structure of interest rates

In the period June 2009 to June 2010, the average lending rates of the Bank of Uganda (BOU) to
commercial banks dropped from 10.6 percent to 8.3 percent whereas commercial banks’ deposit
rates went up from 2.4 percent to 2.7 percent. Demand deposit rates remained unchanged at 1.3
percent for the second year running, as savings deposit rates dropped from 2.4 percent to 2.1
percent. Time deposit rates increased from 10.7 percent to 10.9 percent while all lending rates to
Agriculture, Export and Manufacturing and Commerce dropped from 21.8 percent to 20.2 percent in
the same period. (See Statistical Appendix Table 4.5 B)

4.5.3 Commercial banks’ assets and liabilities

The format for Commercial banks' assets and liabilities changed with effect from Feb 2010. The
revision was made in line with the Monetary and Financial Statistics Manual (MFSM) 2000 and the
International Financial Reporting Standards. As indicated in Table 4.5 C; the total assets of
