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 relationsUgandaAnalysis of Health Care MarketsimfEducationimfEducation: GeneralimfExpenditureimfExpenditures, PublicimfFinance, PublicimfHealth careimfHealth economicsimfHealth PolicyimfHealth systems & servicesimfHealthimfHealth: GeneralimfMedical careimfNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralimfPublic finance & taxationimfPublic FinanceimfPublic financial management (PFM)imfUgandaimfDecentralization in governmentFiscal policyIntergovernmental fiscal relationsAnalysis of Health Care MarketsEducationEducation: GeneralExpenditureExpenditures, PublicFinance, PublicHealth careHealth economicsHealth PolicyHealth systems & servicesHealthHealth: GeneralMedical careNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralPublic finance & taxationPublic FinancePublic financial management (PFM)Brosio Giorgio39999Ahmad Ehtisham140761Gonzalez Maria1642174International Monetary Fund.Fiscal Affairs Dept.DcWaIMFBOOK9910808877503321Uganda4239416UNINA
