• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, hon. Namwamba also raised the issue of counterpart funding, Indeed, when there are programmes like this one, the line Ministries are supposed to provide some component of counterpart funding; then there are aspects which can be funded under counterpart funding.

• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: There are several line Ministries; I cannot name all of them but in the document I have given here there are quite a number of Ministries that have been lined up as potential implementers of this programme. Some are the Ministry of Medical Services, Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources, Ministry of Local Government, Ministry of Roads, Ministry of Public Works and Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports. They are in the documentation that I have given out. view
