Civil society organizations in Uganda are questioning Parliament’s effectiveness in overseeing government borrowing and loan utilization. Concerns center on the country’s increasing public debt and the perceived lack of positive outcomes from projects funded by loans. Critics argue weak parliamentary oversight has contributed to the growing debt burden. A recent dialogue between MPs and civil society groups highlighted these issues, prompting calls for stronger scrutiny of government finances. The organizations emphasize Parliament’s constitutional responsibility to effectively monitor loans and ensure accountability. This renewed focus comes as Uganda navigates rising debt levels, raising concerns about long-term economic sustainability and the value of funded initiatives.
