Working Papers describe research in progress by the author(s) and are published to elicit comments and to further debate. A politically driven and ambitious decentralization program implemented by the authorities since the late 1990s has had mixed results in terms of enhancing service delivery. Paradoxically, concerns with the results of service delivery, partially driven by donors' requirements, have resulted in a deconcentrated system relying on conditional grants and unfunded mandates. This has reduced the incentives, responsibility, and ownership for local authorities to improve service delivery. Crucially, for functions where the local authorities have had full responsibility, better service quality has resulted than in those areas in which there are overlapping responsibilities between the center and the local authorities.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2006/279Decentralization in governmentUgandaFiscal policyUgandaIntergovernmental fiscal relationsUgandaPublic FinanceimfHealth PolicyimfEducation: GeneralimfNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralimfAnalysis of Health Care MarketsimfHealth: GeneralimfEducationimfPublic finance & taxationimfHealth systems & servicesimfHealth economicsimfExpenditureimfPublic financial management (PFM)imfHealth careimfHealthimfExpenditures, PublicimfFinance, PublicimfMedical careimfUgandaimfDecentralization in governmentFiscal policyIntergovernmental fiscal relationsPublic FinanceHealth PolicyEducation: GeneralNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralAnalysis of Health Care MarketsHealth: GeneralEducationPublic finance & taxationHealth systems & servicesHealth economicsExpenditurePublic financial management (PFM)Health careHealthExpenditures, PublicFinance, PublicMedical careBrosio Giorgio39999Ahmad Ehtisham140761Gonzalez Maria1485158International Monetary Fund.Fiscal Affairs Dept.DcWaIMFBOOK9910788693003321Uganda3823259UNINA
