EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction
Kampala City has approximately 1200km of roads of which about 450km (38%) are paved and
750km (62%) are unpaved. A significant portion of the unpaved network is heavily trafficked
with over 300 vehicles per day. With the ever increasing traffic volumes it is becoming very
expensive and unsustainable to maintain the roads in unpaved state. Almost 80% of the paved
roads and 99% of the unpaved roads are in fair-to-poor condition due to a heavy maintenance
backlog. The roads are characterized by potholes, distortions, cracks, etc. and the level of
service is low.
In a bid to partly address the above, the Government of Uganda represented by Kampala Capital
City Authority (KCCA) identified the need for reconstruction, widening and upgrading from
gravel to bitumen standard, some selected City roads as well as improvement of junctions to
improve the current mobility situation in Kampala. The selected roads links and junctions will be
upgraded under Phase-2 of the Kampala Institutional and Development Infrastructure
Development Programme (KIIDP).This project will address critical bottlenecks that impede
mobility in Kampala City and the surrounding areas.
All infrastructural development projects that entail resettlement require a Resettlement Action
Plan. SMEC International Pty Ltd in Association with NEWPLAN Ltd has prepared a Resettlement
Action Plan (RAP) for the selected roads and junctions under Batch 2, specifically eight (8)
priority roads that will be implemented first, namely New Port Bell Road, Old Port Bell/Spring
Road, Nakawa-Ntinda Road (includingNtinda Junction), John Babiha/Acacia Avenue Road, Sir
Apollo Kaggwa Road, Kabuusu-Bunamwaya-Lweza Road, Kulambiro Ring Road and Lukuli Road.
The RAP was aimed at raising awareness of the project and its consequences among the public
and those who will be directly affected by it, estimating the costs for resettlement and land
acquisition and setting out strategies to mitigate adverse effects. The RAP has been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of the Government of Uganda and the World Bank for land
acquisition and resettlement.
Approach and Methodology
This RAP has been prepared using the following main methods: review of Ugandan laws and
policies related to land acquisition and resettlement and World Bank Operational Procedures
specifically O.P 4.12, public consultation and participation, socioeconomic survey, land survey
and valuation of property.
Policy legal and Institutional framework
The key policy and legislations governing compensation and resettlement in Uganda and that
will guide the implementation of this RAP include: Uganda National Land Policy, 2013, Uganda
Constitution, 1995, Land Act, Cap 227, The Land Acquisition Act, 1965, The Roads Act, 1964,
Town and Country Planning Act, 1951, Cap 246and The and the Local Government Act, 1997.
There are however gaps between the World Bank’s Operational Policy 4.12 and Uganda’s
legislation. These include among others the following: Ugandan legislation does not provide for

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page xi
compensation of those without legal right or claim to land while World Bank guidelines provide
for compensation even to those without legal claim to land. OP 4.12 emphasizes in-kind
compensation and resettlement assistance whereas Ugandan legislation does not obligate the
developer to pay in-kind or to provide resettlement assistance. A detailed analysis of the gaps
and provisions made for the implementation of this RAP are presented in Table 3-1.
Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) will be the main implementing institution for this RAP.
Other institutions that will be involved include Ministry of Lands and Urban Development,
Uganda Land Commission (ULC), National Environment Management Authority (NEMA),
Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development, District Land Boards (DLBs), District Land
Offices (DLOs) and Private Sector entities among others.
Public Consultation and Participation
Public consultation and participation was a continuous activity throughout the preparation of
this Resettlement Action Plan. Public consultation aimed at sharing information about the
project, obtaining information about the concerns, needs and priorities of the affected persons,
obtaining cooperation and participation of the affected persons, ensuring transparency while
carrying out the land acquisition activities, discussing different forms of compensation and land
acquisition including voluntary consent and ensuring that PAPs were informed about the
channels through which they could send their grievances. Views and concerns from stakeholders
at all levels (national, local government and directly and indirectly project affected persons)
were sought through interviews and public meetings. Issues/concerns were raised and
suggestions provided by the different stakeholders.
It should be noted that there are already ongoing discussions between Kampala Capital City
Authority and Wakiso District leadership and Kampala Capital City Division Mayors (Nakawa,
Lubaga and Makindye) on compensation-related matters along Kabuusu-Kitebi-Bunamwaya,
Kulambiro and Lukuli roads. In addition, consultations are ongoing between KCCA and the
different affected persons along the different roads in relation to available compensation and
land acquisition options such as, provision of Right of Way at no compensation, replacement of
paved ways and perimeter walls, etc.
Socioeconomic baseline Conditions
A socioeconomic survey was conducted on affected persons during the preparation of the RAP.
The survey was conducted concurrently with the land and asset survey. The purpose of the
survey was to gather socioeconomic baseline conditions of the PAPs for any future monitoring,
to assess the impacts on the affected persons and therefore to identify PAPs at most risk from
the impacts of land acquisition and resettlement, and to provide a basis for informed
consultation about available and realistic compensation options.
The majority of the Project Affected Persons are male (65.6%) while 34.4% are female. In terms
of age, the average age of the affected person is 52 years. The average household size of the
PAPs’ households is 6 persons. In terms of education, the majority of the PAPs attained
relatively high education levels i.e. 42.6% of the PAPs attained tertiary level of education, 35.2%
attained secondary education, 19.6% attained primary education and 2.1% did not attain any
education. The vulnerable groups that will be affected by the construction of the proposed

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page xii
roads include the elderly who are above 65 years (15.3%), female widows (10%) and the
disabled (2.2%). There were no child headed families identified along the different roads. None
of the identified vulnerable PAPs will physically be displaced. The land tenure under the
proposed road links and junctions includes freehold, leasehold, mailo land and kibanja holders.
In regard to income, the findings of the socioeconomic survey indicated that the majority of the
Project Affected Persons lived above the poverty line and were not considered poor.
Project Impacts
Project impacts were identified in order to propose adequate mitigation measures. The project
roads are in an urban area, therefore a lot of effort was made to minimize the impact of land
acquisition and resettlement. Factors that mandated the need to minimize land acquisition and
resettlement included: high values for land and structures along the different roads thus making
the compensation cost very high; limited resources to compensate affected property; and dense
population along the different roads. Project impacts for this project have broadly been
categorised into: impacts on land and developments, and socio-economic impacts. The impacts
on land and developments will entail loss of land, loss of buildings and other structures, loss of
crops/trees. Socioeconomic impacts include impacts on vulnerable PAPs and impacts on
livelihoods. Below is a summary of the identified impacts.

In terms of buildings, most of the buildings are affected by a portion of land take. However the
entire buildings were assessed and they can be remodelled or re-constructed on the remaining
piece of land. An analysis of the land take for PAPs with affected buildings is shown in Table 0-3.

Other types of structures in form of wall fences, paved ways and water drainages will be
affected.
Positive impacts of the project will include direct employment opportunities, increased business
opportunities, improved mobility of vehicles, reduction in travel time and reduced traffic
congestion, reduced vehicle wear and tear thus reduced maintenance costs, reduction in dust
levels, increase in value of land and property along the roads, improved sanitation and a
reduction in sanitation related diseases, street lighting and improved scenic beauty/aesthetics.
Eligibility for Compensation
In particular this project considered all those who have formal legal rights to land (including
customary and traditional rights recognized under the laws of Uganda) as eligible for
compensation.

Page xv
KCCA and community leaders in the Divisions engaged PAPs towards voluntary provision of the
right of way. PAPs who will sign voluntary consent forms allowing road construction through
their land at zero compensation are eligible for compensation for their developments on the
affected land. An entitlement matrix is presented under Table 7-1.
The survey, valuation and socioeconomic surveys for Group 1 roads were first completed in May
2016 and later in December 2016 after revisions of the different road designs. This cut-off date
will however put into consideration the absentee landlords who could not be traced during the
detailed RAP surveys but have legitimate claim to the affected property.
Valuation of Assets and Compensation for Losses
In order to account for the loss of physical assets as well as loss of income either temporary or
permanent, it was imperative that a comprehensive inventory of asset and affected persons
along the different roads is carried out. This inventory would also guide in coming up with the
appropriate compensation amount for each affected property. The valuation of assets was
preceded by sensitization of communities and surveying of the affected land. The land survey
included collection of cadastral data from the land offices, demarcating off the right of way, and
land boundary surveys to demarcate and determine the actual size of land to be affected by the
project.
The valuation of property involved recording of all affected persons and properties. The
inventory specified the type of buildings/structures, crops/trees, size of land and land tenure
system affected. The valuation assessment and computation of the compensation values was
carried out in accordance with the Ugandan land legislation specifically the Article 26 of the
Constitution and Section 77 of the Land Act as well as the Land Acquisition Act, 1965. In
addition, there were other principles followed during the valuation assessment and
theseincluded: measurement of the portion of land within the existing road but without
attachment of a monetary value and assessment of developments/property beyond PAPs’ land
titles i.e. developments assumed to be within KCCA’s existing road reserve. World Bank’s O.P
4.12 was also considered in terms of replacement value.
Computation of compensation for land was based on market value and in accordance with
Section 77(1) (a) of the Land Act and O.P 4.12.Other considerations taken into account during
the computation of the compensation for land were: the size of land affected; and nature of
interests in land. The Mailo and Freehold interests were assessed at 100% of the market value
derived from the market research. This is because they are perpetual in nature. The Leasehold
interest was assessed at 10% diminution of the freehold interest for leases exceeding 40 years
(considered to be long term) while those with a shorter term were assessed individually. The
Leasehold interest was assessed at 125% of the value of the Kibanja interest. This was based on
the costs associated with acquiring a leasehold title from Buganda land board. The Kibanja
interest was assessed at 70% of the value of the Mailo interest with no encumbrances or
secondary interests while the “Landlords interest” (Holder of the Mailo land certificate of title)
was assessed at 30% of the same.
Compensation payable for crops, temporary and non-temporary buildings was computed using
the Kampala District Compensation Rates 2015/16 while permanent structures were assessed

in Kampala City

Page xvi
on the basis of open market value in accordance with Section 77(1) (b) of the Land Act with
guidance from the Chief Government Valuer’s office. A statutory disturbance allowance of 15%
of the total sum was awarded in accordance with Section 77(2) of the Land Act. It was assumed
that a notice of at least six (6) months will be served to the affected persons to vacate the land.
Values of land for PAPs who already voluntarily consented to provide land at no cost were
deducted from the compensation amount.
Verification, Payment and Land Acquisition
The verification, and disclosure of entitlements will follow the following processes: validation of
census data, securing agreements through community consultations and negotiations,
verification and disclosure of compensation principles and unit rates, and Conclusion of
Agreements or Attempt at Mediation.
Given the urban nature of the project, the mode of payment for compensation will be cash
compensation through Electronic Funds Transfer System (EFT).
The land acquisition process will include signing of land transfer and mutation forms by the PAPs
and application of a land title by KCCA.
Resettlement /Relocation
A total of 13 buildings will be fully affected, 4 of which are used for residential purposes, 7 used
as commercial structures and 2 used by the public (church and school).Being a linear project,
most affected structures will be rebuilt/shifted away from road but on the same plot by the
owners and support by the project in case of vulnerable categories of affected persons such as
widows, persons with disabilities etc.
Grievance Resolution Mechanisms
Grievances on this project will be resolved through Grievance Resolution Committees (GRCs)
and Courts of law, but the latter will be as a last resort if GRCs fail. The project implementers
hand in hand with the appointed Grievance Resolution Committee members will endeavour that
grievances are solved amicably, efficiently and in a quick manner.
Measures to Minimize and Mitigate the Impacts on Livelihoods
In general, due to the efforts considered to minimize land acquisition and resettlement during
the design phase, the impact on livelihood will be minimal. In a bid to further minimize and
support those whose livelihoods might beimpacted on, the following measures will be
considered during the implementation of the RAP and the construction of the respective roads:
 Provision of early notification regarding the commencement of construction activities to
enable affected persons salvage any material that they may need, relocate early enough
and look for alternative premises especially for people renting the affected premises;
 Support to recover from impact on livelihoods through temporary concessions on taxes,
and assistance in expediting approvals for restoring affected buildings
 Assistance to secure temporary locations for livelihood activities during construction
phase
 Avoiding total blockage of the remaining parking space as much as possible;

in Kampala City

Page xvii
 Restoring affected sections as quickly as feasible;
 Promptly compensating the affected PAPs to enable them restore their commercial
buildings elsewhere;
 Putting in place a Traffic Management Plan to reduce inconveniences to businesses
along the respective roads and thus to minimize the loss of income;
 Provision of pedestrian access to businesses to minimize the impact of reduction in
customers;
 Early approvals of building plans for PAPs that will require relocation of their structures.
This will enable PAPs to quickly re-establish their premises elsewhere and thus quickly
re-establish their livelihoods.
 Early sensitisation of communities along the roads about the negative implications on
businesses during the construction phase especially to people with businesses like
kiosks, bodabodas etc.;
 Proper designation of operating areas after construction of the road to enable the
traders work in organised environment and clean environment.

Costs and Budget


The estimated total cash compensation for the proposed priority 8 roads under Group 1is
Twenty Six Billion, Nineteen Million, Nine Hundred Eighty Thousand, Five Hundred Seventy Nine
Shillings (UGX26,019,983,579) or Seven Million, Four Hundred Thirty Four Hundred, Two
Hundred Eighty One United States Dollars (7,434,281USD).This figure excludes that valuation
amount for land that PAPs have allowed road construction at no cost, after signing consent
agreements, but includes crops and structures therein.
The total estimated RAP implementation budget is Four Hundred Six Million, One Hundred
Eighty Nine Thousand, One Hundred Forty Uganda Shillings. (UGX 406,189,140) or One Hundred
Sixteen Thousand, Fifty Four United States Dollars (USD 116,054).
Implementation Schedule
The RAP implementation schedules will be coordinated with construction schedules. Before any
project civil works activity is implemented, PAPs will have to be compensated in accordance
with the Ugandan legislation and World Bank resettlement guidelines.
Monitoring and Evaluation
Monitoring and Evaluation includes the establishment of socio-economic background data of
the affected persons prior to actual land acquisition or physical relocation and regular
monitoring of their situation for a specified period of time after land acquisition and relocation.
Both internal and external monitoring will be undertaken for this RAP.The main objective of
monitoring is to provide the developer and funder with feedback on RAP implementation and to
identify problems and successes as early as possible to allow timely adjustment of
implementation arrangements. Both qualitative and quantitative evaluations will be made to
ascertain whether the affected people have achieved at the minimum their pre-project standard
of living.

DEFINITIONS
CONCEPT DEFINITION
Refers to payment in cash or in kind for an asset to be acquired or
affected by an infrastructure project at replacement cost.
Compensation
Compensation also involves more than a one-time payment process. It
involves improvement or restoration of incomes and livelihoods.
Refers to the date of completion of the census and assets inventory of
persons affected by the project. Persons occupying the area after the
Cut-off Date cut-off date are not eligible for compensation. Similarly, fixed assets
such as built structures and perennial crops established after the date
of completion of the assets inventory will not be compensated.
All those who reside or derive their living from areas where the project
Directly Affected
will have a direct impact, often referred to as the Direct Impact Zone
Persons
(DIZ), consisting of all the project components.
Involuntary resettlement refers both to physical displacement
(relocation or loss of shelter) and to economic displacement (loss of
assets or access to assets that leads to loss of income sources or means
of livelihood) as a result of project-related land acquisition or restriction
of access to natural resources. Resettlement is considered involuntary
Involuntary
when affected individuals or communities do not have the option to
Resettlement
refuse land acquisition that results in displacement. This occurs in cases
of: (i) lawful expropriation or restrictions on land use based on eminent
domain; and (ii) negotiated settlements in which the buyer can resort to
expropriation or impose legal restrictions on land use if negotiations
with the seller fail.
The term “livelihood” refers to the full range of means that individuals,
Livelihood families, and communities utilize to make a living, such as wage-based
income, agriculture, petty trade, etc.
Affected persons are defined as those who stand to lose, as a
Project Affected consequence of the project, all or part of their physical and non-physical
Persons (PAPs) assets, including homes, productive land, commercial properties,
income earning opportunities, etc.
The market value of the assets plus transaction costs. In applying this
method of valuation, depreciation of structures and assets should not
be taken into account.
Replacement cost
Market value is defined as the value required to allow Affected
Communities and persons to replace lost assets with assets of similar
value.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background to the Project
Kampala City has approximately 1200km of roads of which about 450km (38%) are paved and
750km (62%) are unpaved. A significant portion of the unpaved network is heavily trafficked
with over 300 vehicles per day. With the ever increasing traffic volumes it is becoming very
expensive and unsustainable to maintain theroads in unpaved state. Almost 80% of the paved
roads and 99% of the unpaved roads are in fair-to-poor condition due to a heavy maintenance
backlog. The roads are characterized by potholes, distortions, cracks, etc. and the level of
service is low. Localized repairs have become extremely expensive and uneconomical with roads
breaking up in a short time after routine repairs.
Traffic congestion in the city is fast growing due to a combination of poor roads network,
uncontrolled junctions, and insufficient roads capacity which is out of phase with the increasing
traffic (vehicular and pedestrian) on Kampala roads. This congestion results into higher vehicle
operating costs, long travel times and poor transport services. The overall city aesthetics and
quality of life is highly compromised by the dilapidated paved roads and sidewalks, unpaved
shoulders and unpaved roads which are sources of mud and dust that hovers over large sections
of the City.
In a bid to partly address the foregoing, the Government of the Republic of Uganda (GoU)
represented by Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) has identified the need for reconstruction,
widening and upgrading from gravel to bitumen standard, some selected City roads as well as
improvement of junctions to improve the current mobility situation in Kampala and
subsequently achieve sustainable economic development. This is in line with Kampala Capital
City Authority's mandate to ensure that the City's roads infrastructure are maintained and
improved to acceptable motorable standards in order to facilitate smooth flow of traffic. These
road links and junctions will be upgraded under Phase-2 of the Kampala Institutional and
Development Infrastructure Development Programme (KIIDP)
This project will address critical bottlenecks that impede mobility in Kampala City and the
surrounding areas. The project aims at implementing the recommendations of the transport
master plan for Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area (GKMA) in 2008-2023 and the Kampala
Physical Development plan of 2013. The project is to be funded by the World Bank (WB) and has
been divided into batches which will comprise the following work items:
a) Batch 1: Improvement of nine (9) key Junctions/intersections and reconstruction,
widening and dualling of 8.05km of key Kampala City road links.
b) Batch 2: Improvement of fourteen (14) key Junctions/intersections, development of a
traffic control Centre at KCCA, bridge link between Nsambya junction to Rosebury roads,
widening and upgrading to dual carriageway of 16.0km of key Kampala City road links,
reconstruction of 38km and upgrading 46km of roads in and around Kampala
Additionally, the Government of the Republic of Uganda applied for Credit from the
International Development Association (IDA) in various currencies towards the cost of Kampala

Institutional and Development Infrastructure Development Programme (KIIDP). KCCA will apply
a portion of this loan to eligible payments under this contract viz Consulting Services for the
Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Roads Links and Junctions/Intersections
to Improve Mobility in Kampala city.
SMEC International Pty Ltd in association with NEWPLAN Limited was contracted by KCCA to
provide consultancy services for the detailed engineering designs, socio-economic and
environmental impact assessments, preparation of a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) and tender
documentation for selected road links and junctions/intersections under Batch 2.
This Resettlement Plan covers selected priority roads under Batch 2.

1.2. Objectives of the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)


All infrastructural development projects that entail resettlement require a Resettlement Action
Plan. The objectives of a RAP are to:
a) Raise awareness of the project and its consequences among the general public and
particularly among those people who will be directly affected by it;
b) Estimate the costs necessary for resettlement/land acquisition; and
c) Prepare a RAP that sets out strategies and schedules to mitigate adverse effects. The
RAP establishes the parameters and entitlements for project affected people (PAP),
institutional frameworks, mechanisms for consultation and grievance resolution, time
schedules and a budget, etc.

1.3. Resettlement Planning Context


The planning for resettlement and compensation for the proposed roads and junctions is in the
context of developing the City of Kampala. The area in which the planning for compensation for
compensation is being carried out is a predominantly urban area, in the central region of
Uganda with mixed land tenure systems i.e. Mailo land, Bibanja,Leasehold and Freehold. This
implies that for some pieces of land, more than one person will be entitled to land
compensation especially where thereare licensees/tenants/kibanjaholders. More so, some land
titles along some of the roads cross the existing road.
The purpose of this Resettlement Action Plan is to provide strategies for addressing
resettlement and compensation issues arising from the impact of the project on people with
affected property along the different road links and junctions.
It is important to note that even in the presence of a well elaborated RAP, the success of the
resettlement activities lies in the hands of the implementing agency. The implementing agency
will need to make the necessary efforts to implement the RAP and to also be flexible over time
in order to adapt the various measures to changes and unexpected situations while continuing
to be in compliance with the national laws and World Bank standards.

1.4. Project Description

1.4.1. Proposed Roads under Group I Batch 2


Only eight (8) priority road sare presented in this RAP, which are a sub-set of Group 1, which
comprises of 12 roads and 4 junctions under Batch 2 of KIIDP 2. There is a separate RAP
developed for the other roads, as group 2 batch 2. Table 1-1shows the roads and junctions
under Group 1, their location, proposed interventions per road, duration of construction
activities, carriageway and sidewalk width.

1.4.2. Overview &Design Consideration for Group 1 Project Roads
Details of the design considerations for the proposed roads and junctions under Group 1 are as
shown in Table 1-2Error! Reference source not found.. It should be noted that due to the
influence of existing property boundaries, the corridor width along all roads could not be
maintained throughout. The corridor boundaries therefore largely follow existing property
boundaries where they are visible.
Table 1-2: Design consideration for project roads under Group 1

Road name Overview of the roads and proposed design details


Priority roads in Group 1 to be implemented first.
New Portbell The existing road is a single carriageway, with a lane in each direction, and
road starts at Nakawa Junction (Jinja Road) (N0456768, E0036207) and it spans a
length of 6.7Km up to Portbell Pier (N0461528, E0032161), all in Nakawa
Division. It is currently surfaced, and functions as an urban arterial road.
Various properties gain direct access from the road, and there are several
uncontrolled intersections along the road. It generally is in fair condition.
This road is to be upgraded to dual carriageway, with centre median. This will
make provision of access to the properties that currently gain access from the
opposing side of this road problematic. Three of the largest uncontrolled
intersections will be upgraded to signalized intersections. U-turn facilities have
been provided at strategic locations along the road.
There is an existing Road-over-Rail structure near the Nakawa Junction, which
will be widened to accommodate the new carriageways. There will be no
provision made to accommodate the Standard Gauge Railway under this
project.
The existing vertical alignment will be raised by 300mm to accommodate the
new pavement design. The existing road cross section is generally flat, and it is
not expected that access to adjacent properties will be jeopardised by the
raising of the vertical profile.
The design of the right of way corridor for Port Bell Road is based on a
minimum width of 25m. This is slightly wider than the full carriageway width of
18.21m. Where there is no impact on improvements on existing properties such
as buildings and other structures the corridor width of 25m was maintained.
Old Portbell The existing road is a single carriageway, with a lane in each direction, and
Road/Spring Road starts at Wampewo Roundabout (N0458248, E0035362) and it spans a length of
3.4 km up to New Port Bell Road (N0455002, E0035151), all in Nakawa Division.
It is currently surfaced, and functions as an urban arterial road. Various

There are two railway crossings along the road. One is a disused spur, and the
other is the existing railway line to Jinja in the east of Uganda.
The design of the right of way corridor for Old Port Bell Road (Spring Road) is
based on a minimum width of 25m which is slightly wider than the full
carriageway width of 18.21m. In the first section of Spring Road the corridor
design is such that is follows the facades of the existing buildings.
Nakawa-Ntinda The existing road is a single carriageway, with a lane in each direction, and
road starts at Jinja Road at Nakawa Spear Motors (N0457473, E0036886) and it spans
a length of 2.7 km up to Bukoto-Ntinda Road (N0457051, E0039264), all in
Nakawa Division. It is currently surfaced, and functions as an urban arterial
road. Various properties gain direct access from the road, and there are several
uncontrolled intersections along the road. It generally is in poor condition, with
many potholes and edge breaks along the road.
This road is to be upgraded to dual carriageway, with centre median. This will
make provision of access to the properties that currently gain access from the
opposing side of this road problematic. The uncontrolled intersection with
Bukoto-Ntinda Rd will be upgraded to signalized intersection.
The existing vertical alignment will be raised by 360mm to accommodate the
new pavement design. The existing road cross section is generally flat, and it is
not expected that access to adjacent properties will be jeopardised by the
raising of the vertical profile.
The design of the right of way corridor for Nakawa-Ntinda Road is based on a
minimum width of 25m which is slightly wider than the full carriageway width
of 18.21m. Where there is to be no impact on improvements on existing
properties such as buildings and other structures the corridor width of 25m was
maintained.

Sentema road The existing road starts at Wakaliga Road (N 0450802, E 0034287) and it spans a
length of 3.4 Km up to Northern Bypass (N0447731, E 0036690), all in Lubaga
Division. It is currently surfaced, and functions as an urban arterial road.
Various properties gain direct access from the road, and there are several
uncontrolled intersections along the road. The road is paved, and generally in
fair to poor condition, with many potholes.
This road is to be reconstructed, and will remain a single carriageway, with a
lane in each direction.
The existing vertical alignment will be raised by 300mm to accommodate the
new pavement design. The existing road cross section varies generally between
flat and steep, and it is not expected that access to adjacent properties will be
jeopardised by the raising of the vertical profile.
The design of the right of way corridor for Sentema Road is based on a
minimum width of 14m. This is slightly wider than the full carriageway width of
10.05m. Where there is to be no impact on improvements on existing
properties such as buildings and other structures the corridor width of 14m was
maintained.
Kayemba Road The existing road starts at Lubiri Ring Road (N0452479, E0033218) and it spans
a length of 1.4 Km up to the junction with Namasoole Road (N0453458,
E0032342) all in Makindye Division.
The road crosses Katwe Road, but there is currently no provision made for
motorists to cross Katwe Road. The road is partly surfaced, and partly gravel.
After that the road passes underneath Queen’s Way via a narrow pedestrian
underpass structure, which allows thoroughfare only to pedestrians and
motorcycles. After this crossing the road becomes a pedestrian walkway. A
second narrow pedestrian underpass structure follows which passes
underneath a railway line.
This underpass structure is wide enough so that small passenger cars can fit
through, so there is access from the portion of Kayemba Road east of the
railway line to Queen’s Way. The portion of Kayemba Road beyond the railway
line is gravel, and in poor condition. This portion terminates at the junction with
Namasoole Road.

Road name Overview of the roads and proposed design details
This road is to be reconstructed, and will remain a single carriageway, with a
lane in each direction. It is proposed to design a new structure that passes
underneath the railway line, as well as a new structure that allows
KayembaRoad to pass beneath Queen’s Way. These structures will
accommodate the full width of the upgraded road.
The design of the right of way corridor for Kayemba Road is based on a
minimum width of 12.5m. This is due to the severe encroachment of existing
buildings onto the current Right of Way Corridor. The proposed Right of Way
Corridor is slightly wider than the full carriageway width of 10.05m. Where
there is to be no impact on improvements on existing properties such as
buildings and other structures the corridor width of 12.5m was maintained.

2. RAP PREPARATION METHODOLOGY
2.1. Introduction
This section describes the approach and methods (processes) followed when preparing this
Resettlement Action Plan.

2.2.1. Review of Available Documentation


Several documents containing information vital for the project were reviewed. These included:
 The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Report for the proposed roads;
 Relevant Ugandan legislation;
 Design reports;
 Uganda Bureau of Statistics Documents;
 Relevant documents about Kampala and Wakiso Districts;
 Etc.

2.2.2. Stakeholder Consultation and Community Participation


Stakeholder consultation was a continuous activity during the duration of the preparation of the
RAP. The Consultant used both snow-ball and purposive methods in identifying the relevant
stakeholders. Stakeholders included national & local government authorities, directly and
indirectly affected persons and village leaders. The methods for consultation, information
sharing and gathering were highly participatory in nature and included in-depth interviews and
community meetings.

2.2.3. Socio-economic Survey


An interviewer-administered questionnaire was developed with both open ended and close
ended questions for gathering information on socio-economic baseline conditions of Project
Affected persons (PAPs) for future monitoring (Appendix E). This questionnaire was aimed at
capturing demographical data of affected persons, livelihoods and incomes, assets owned,
methods of access to information, etc. The questionnaire was administered to affected persons
who were available during the land valuation and property assessment exercise (418 No.). In
most cases, where the affected persons were absent, the questionnaire was not administered
but where spouses could provide information, it was administered. In cases, where the property
was in the names of a deceased person, information in relation to the representative was
picked. An institutions’ questionnaire was also administered to affected institutions (Appendix
F).
Research Assistants with good command of both English and Luganda languages were recruited
and trained for the exercise. The data collected was entered and analysed using the Scientific
Package for Social Scientists (SPSS) and Ms-Excel program.

2.2.4. Land Survey
The land survey methodology included collection of relevant cadastral data from the land
offices, demarcation of the project land and measurement of land boundaries for each affected
plot to determine the actual size of land affected. A detailed methodology of the land survey is
provided in Chapter 8.

2.2.5. Valuation of property


The valuation of property was undertaken by taking count and measuring each affected
property and attaching compensation values with guidance from the Land Act and other
relevant legislation as described in Chapter 8.

3. POLICY, LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK
3.1. Introduction
This chapter describes the Ugandan policies, laws and institutional framework relevant to the
land acquisition and resettlement activities for the proposed roads and junctions under which
this Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) is to be implemented. The chapter also describes the
relevant sections of World Bank O.P 4.12 guideline on Involuntary Resettlement. A comparison
and gap analysis of the Ugandan laws and World Bank’s O.P 4.12 are also provided. KCCA is the
implementing agency on behalf of the Government Uganda thus its capacity to implement the
RAP has also been assessed.

3.2. Standards for Resettlement


This RAP has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Government of Uganda
and the World Bank for land acquisition and resettlement.
The Government of Uganda has set standards to follow when land is to be acquired for public
interest. Under the Ugandan Constitution, the government is authorized to acquire land for a
public purpose and compensate affected persons in accordance with the law. It specifically
provides for the “prompt payment of fair and adequate compensation” prior to taking
possession of the land.
Similarly, the World Bank has clear standards on the resettlement of displaced persons under
the Operational Policy 4.12 – Involuntary Resettlement. The overall objectives for the OP 4.12 –
Involuntary Resettlement are the following:
a) Involuntary resettlement should be avoided where feasible, or minimized by exploring
all viable alternative project designs.
b) Where it is not feasible to avoid resettlement, resettlement activities should be
conceived and executed as sustainable development programs, providing sufficient
investment resources to enable the persons displaced by the project to share in project
benefits. Displaced persons should be meaningfully consulted and should have
opportunities to participate in planning and implementing resettlement programs.
c) Displaced persons should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and
standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels
or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is
higher.

3.3. Uganda Policy Framework

3.3.1. Uganda National Land Policy, 2013


In regard to compulsory land acquisition, the policy states that, “the State as a trustee for the
citizens of Uganda shall exercise the power of compulsory acquisition responsibly and in the
public interest”. This will be in accordance with the Land Act and Land Acquisition Act.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 15
Regarding land rights of women and children, the policy states that “government shall by
legislation, protect the right to inheritance and ownership of land for women and children;
“Government shall ensure that both men and women enjoy equal rights to land before
marriage, in marriage, after marriage and at succession without discrimination.
During implementation of the RAP, the rights of women and children affected by the project will
be taken into consideration.

3.3.2. Uganda Gender Policy, 2007


The main goal of the policy is to achieve gender equality and women's empowerment as an
integral part of Uganda's socio-economic development. One of principles guiding of the policy is
gender equality. The policy recognizes that gender equality is an integral part of national
development processes and reinforces the overall development objectives in the country. The
policy emphasizes government's commitment to elimination of gender inequalities and
empowerment of women in the development process.
In relation to land acquisition the policy highlights that women’s land rights are recognized in
the Land Act Cap 227, Section 39 where spousal written consent is a requirement on all matters
relating to land on which the person resides with his/her spouse and from which the family
derives sustenance.
The RAP has recommended the need for spousal consent for PAPs with affected residential
structures.

3.3.3. National Policy for Older Persons, 2009


The policy recognizes that all older persons are equal before the law, and are entitled to equal
treatment and benefits from the laws. Older persons should be provided with opportunities to
take appropriate decisions on matters affecting their lives and families. Special attention will be
provided by this project to older persons affected by the project.

3.4. Uganda Legal Framework


There are a number of national legal frameworks that regulate land relations in Uganda. These
frameworks define land rights, ownership, procedures and requirements of transfer and
acquisition of land between individuals and groups. They also provide procedures for the
acquisition of land by the state or public body for public projects. For the purpose of this RAP, a
legal review was conducted based on the following laws and regulations.

3.4.1. Uganda Constitution, 1995


According to the Constitution, [Article 237 (1)] all land belongs to the people of Uganda and is
held in trust by the Government under four tenure systems i.e. Customary, Freehold, Mailo and
Leasehold. Notwithstanding clause (1) of this article—the Government or a local government
may, subject to Article 26 of this Constitution, acquire land in the public interest; and the
conditions governing such acquisition shall be as prescribed by Parliament. Section 2 of this
Article stipulates that: no person shall be compulsorily deprived of property or any interest in or
right over property of any description except where the following conditions are satisfied—

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 16
(a) the taking of possession or acquisition is necessary for public use or in the interest of
defence, public safety, public order, public morality or public health; and
(b) the compulsory taking of possession or acquisition of property is made under a law
which makes provision for—
(i) prompt payment of fair and adequate compensation, prior to the taking of
possession or acquisition of the property; and
(ii) a right of access to a court of law by any person who has an interest or right over
the property.
Subject to the above articles, the government is allowed to acquire land for public use and to
provide prompt and fair compensation for affected persons.
In regard to vulnerable groups, Sections 33-36 of the Constitution provide for the rights of
women, children, persons with disabilities, and minorities. The implementation of this RAP will
ensure that the rights of these groups are taken into consideration and extra attention paid to
them.

3.4.2. Land Act, Cap 227


Section2 of the Act provides for Land ownership as prescribed in Article 237 of the Constitution.
Circumstances under which people claim an interest in land varies form case to case. With
respect to acquisition and compensation of such land, it is essential to look at how the Land Act
caters for such individuals and who is the lawful party to receive compensation.
The land Act Section 29 recognises a number of people with respect to land occupancy namely: -
lawful occupants, bona fide occupants, persons not qualified to be bona fide occupants and
tenants by occupancy. All forms of land occupancy recognised by the law have been taken into
consideration in this RAP.
Section 39 gives restrictions on transfer of land by family members. Section 39 (1) requires a
written consent from the (i) spouse(s), (ii) children of majority age, (iii) committee where
children or orphans below majority age are involved before any person transfers, sells or enters
into contract of land where the household derives its livelihood.
Section 39 (7) allows the spouse or children of majority age, not being the owners to lodge a
caveat on the certificate of title or certificate of customary ownership of the person who is the
owner of any land to which subsection (1) applies to indicate that the property is subject to the
requirement of the consent under subsection (1).The consent of spouses and children will be
required especially where the land is for residential purposes.
The Act lists a series of land administration institutions (Sections 46-76) consisting of Uganda
Land Commission (ULC), District Land Boards (DLB) and Parish Land Committees (PLC).The roles
of the relevant institutions have been clearly defined in Section 4.6 of this report.
Section 77 (2) provides for disturbance allowance. It states that “in addition to compensation
assessed under this section, there shall be paid as a disturbance allowance 15 percent or, if less
than six months’ notice to give up vacant possession is given, 30 percent of any sum assessed
under subsection (1)”. A 15 percent disturbance allowance has been computed in addition to
the assessed compensation amount of the affected property.

Page 17
3.4.3. Land Acquisition Act, 1965
This Act makes provision for the procedures and methods of compulsory acquisition of land for
public purposes whether for temporary or permanent use. The Minister of Lands may authorize
any person to enter the land, survey the land, dig or bore the subsoil or any other thing
necessary for ascertaining whether the land is suitable for a public purpose. The Government or
developer is to compensate any person who suffers damage as a result of the action. The Act
requires that adequate, fair and prompt compensation is paid before taking possession of land
and property. Disputes arising from the compensation to be paid should be referred to the court
of law for decision.
With respect to compulsory acquisition of land, the most vital aspect is to follow the procedure
clearly laid out in the law. Failure of which, a PAP will rightly be able to sue the parties involved.

3.4.4. Roads Act, 1964


This Act provides for the establishment of road reserves and for the maintenance of roads.
Section 2 of the Roads Act declares a road reserve as an area bound by imaginary lines parallel
at a distance of no more than fifty feet (15.24 meters) from the Centre line of any road.
Section 3 prohibits erection of any building or planting of any tree or permanent crops within
the road reserve except with written permission of the Authority.
Section 5 provides for removal of interferences, etc.
(1) If any person—
(a) constructs or erects or commences to construct or erect any building or erection in
contravention of Section 3 or of any order made under Section 4, or which interferes in any
way with the proper function of any cutting, ditch or culvert constructed in connection with
any road;
(b) plants or permits to grow any tree or permanent crop not growing at the
commencement of this Act in contravention of Section 3 or of any order made under
Section 4, or which interferes in any way with the proper function of any cutting, ditch or
culvert constructed in connection with any road; or
(c) connects with any road, any cattle path, bicycle track, side road or entrance or means of
access to a dwelling or to any other premises or place which interferes in any way with the
proper function of any cutting, ditch or culvert constructed in connection with a road or
which in the opinion of the road authority is likely to be dangerous to persons or vehicles
using a road;
Then the road authority shall give written notice to the owner or occupier of the land on
which such offence took place requiring him or her—
- to pull down or remove the building or erection;
- to cut down or uproot the tree or crops; or
- to alter or repair the cattle path, bicycle track, side road or entrance or means of
access or to close it, as the case may be.

Page 18
The rationale for considering this law is to cater for PAPs who claim ownership of land in road
reserves. As provided above, no individual can rightfully claim ownership of land in a road
reserve. Therefore, in such circumstance, compensation claims should not arise.
However, in the event that there is a proposed development of a new road, where a road did
not exist, the law handles the situation differently. The Town and Country Planning Act comes
into play to cater for such situations. The Act lays out circumstances under which affected
person may claim for compensation.

3.4.5. The Physical Planning Act, 2010


This Act replaced the Town and Country Planning Act, Cap 246 which was enacted in 1951 and
revised in 1964 but is now inconsistent with contemporary government system in Uganda. The
1951 Act was enacted to regulate and operate in a centralized system of governance where
physical planning was carried out at national level through the Town and Country Planning
Board. Implementation of the Act was supervised by local governments, especially the urban
local governments.
Uganda has since gone through many social, political and economic changes. For example,
promulgation of the 1995 Constitution established a decentralized system of governance which
divulged powers and functions including physical planning, finance and execution of projects
from the central government to local governments. This therefore created a need to enact a
physical planning legislation which is consistent with this Constitutional requirement. The
Physical Planning Act, 2010 establishes district and urban physical planning committees,
provides for making and approval of physical development plans and applications for
development.
Kampala and Wakiso Districts have jurisdiction over the proposed project area and therefore
have regulatory control to ensure that the proposed project conforms to local physical planning
requirements.
Section 33 of this Act provides for development permission. It states that a person shall not
carry out a development within a planning area without obtaining development permission
from a physical planning committee.
Section 40 of the Act provides for application for development permission in areas without
approved physical development plans.
KCCA will provide support to the physically displaced PAPs to obtain the necessary approvals for
development in the new areas of settlement with or without development plans.

3.4.6. Survey Act, 1964


Before any attempts are made to construct any road in any part of the country, a survey of the
area has to be carried out. Survey operations in Uganda are governed by The Survey Act.
Under this Act, the Commissioner of Surveys can authorize the carrying out of a survey of any
land if it is necessary. However, where a general survey is necessary, notice of such, specifying
the local limits of the area affected has to be published in the gazette before the survey is
undertaken. In case the survey is of a special nature, which could be outside the capacity and
scope of the Commissioner, then the Minister may order for such a survey. In that case, the

in Kampala City

Page 19
Minister must specify the nature of the survey to be carried out and its purpose. The Minister is
compelled to comply with the provisions of the Act when doing so.
Only government surveyors or duly authorized officers with servants and workmen may enter
upon any land and make all or any inquiries and do or cause to be done all things necessary for
effecting such a survey.
Obstructing a surveyor when he is carrying out lawful activities is an offence under this Act
(Section 31). However, in all cases, notice must always be given to the party to be affected by
the survey.
With regard to compensation, Section 23 of the Act stipulates as follows:
“Where any demand for compensation is made as a result of the clearance of any boundary or
other line, a Government surveyor shall, as soon as conveniently may be, inspect any trees,
fences, or standing crops which are alleged to have been cut down or damaged, and, if he or she
shall consider that any compensation should be paid, shall pay or tender to the owner of the
trees, fences or standing crops the amount of compensation which in his or her opinion should
be allowed for them”.
The proposed project will involve acquisition of land that shall need surveying, demarcation and
possible compensation hence the relevance of the Act.

3.4.7. Local Government Act, 1997


This Act gives effect to the Government Policy on de-centralization and devolution of functions,
powers, and services to Local Governments. Under this Act, District and lower Local Councils are
given the responsibility of managing their natural resources. Some of the de-centralised services
and activities for which District Councils are responsible are stipulated under Second Schedule
Part 2, Section 5 and include land administration, physical planning, land surveying,
conservation of forests and wetlands, social rehabilitation, labour matters, community
development, vulnerable children, cultural affairs and others.
District and lower local councils of Kampala and Wakisowere involved in the process of
preparation of the Resettlement Action Plan. Their involvement will also be required during RAP
implementation, construction of the roads and operation of the project.

3.5. World Bank Operational Policy on Involuntary Resettlement – O.P


4.12
The World Bank policy on involuntary resettlement emphasizes that any development project
should avoid or minimize involuntary resettlement and where this is not feasible, it should
compensate for lost assets at full replacement cost and assist the displaced persons in improving
or at least restoring their livelihoods and standards of living in real terms relative to pre-
displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation,
whichever is higher. Several alternatives have been considered to ensure that involuntary
resettlement is minimized on the different selected roads.
WB OP 4.12 (6a) demands that the resettlement plan includes measures to ensure that
displaced persons are (i) informed about their options and rights, (ii) consulted on, offered
choices among others and provided with technically and economically feasible resettlement

in Kampala City

Page 20
alternatives, and (iii) provided prompt and effective compensation at full replacement costs. The
process of consultation was continuous throughout the RAP preparation process and will
continue throughout the RAP Implementation phase.
WB OP 4.12 (8) requires that particular attention should be paid to the needs of vulnerable
groups among those displaced such as those below the poverty line, landless, elderly, women
and children and indigenous people and ethnic minorities. The RAP has provided
recommendations about the extra attention that should be provided to vulnerable groups.
WB OP 4.12 Para 11 states that payment of cash compensation for lost assets may be
appropriate where: (b) active markets for land, housing and labor exist, displaced persons use
such markets, and there is sufficient supply of land and housing; or (c) livelihoods are not land
based. Cash compensation levels should be sufficient to replace the lost land and other assets at
full replacement cost in local markets. The project roads are in an urban setting where the
market for land is very active. More so, the project being in an urban area, the livelihoods of
Project Affected Persons are not land based thus cash compensation will be the main mode of
compensation.
WB OP4.12 Para 13(a) requires that appropriate and accessible grievance mechanisms are
established to sort out any issues arising. Grievance Resolution Mechanisms have been provided
for in this RAP.

3.5.1. Comparison between Ugandan legislation & World Bank Policies


on Resettlement and Compensation
There are some differences between the World Bank Policy and the Ugandan Laws on
involuntary resettlement. While the Ugandan Laws restrict themselves to fair, adequate and
prompt compensation, the World Bank policy extends it to providing alternative land and
resettling the persons.
Furthermore, there is also no provision in the Ugandan legislation that the state should attempt
to minimize involuntary resettlement whereas it is one of the principles of WB OP 4.12.
A comparison between the Ugandan legislation and World Bank requirements regarding land
acquisition and compensation is given in Table 3-1 with provisions or recommendations for
bridging the gaps.

3.6.2. Institutional Capacity
Overall, there are observed capacity issues affecting RAP implementation process. These are both at
external, that is, other government institutions mandated to support undertaking of implementation
of the RAP as well as internal capacity at KCCA as described below. However, there is notable
improvement over the past years, particularly at KCCA.

3.6.2.1. Chief Government Valuer and other Government Institutions


The Chief Government Valuer (CGV) is central in the RAP implementation process at the Central
Government level and is mandated to approve all valuations in the country for public interest. The
office of the CGV has the technical competency to participate, guide and regulate the valuation
process.However, itis often constrained by the limited human and other resources such as office
space and vehicles to facilitate inspection and verification of the valuation process before approval.
This often affects timelyapprovals of the Valuation reports and any re-assessments that may be
required during the implementation of the RAP.These delays tend to trigger rejections of the
compensation packages by the affected people that generally result from economic inflations and or
increase in the value of the initially assessed properties. In addition, other transactions such as
newbank mortgages, change in ownership etc., whichrequire additional administrative procedures
often take place and lengthen the compensation process.
There are also human resource capacity challenges within the Ministry of Lands Housing and Urban
Development (MLHUD), where search statement must be obtained prior to compensation of affected
registered land, to prove ownership. Although the ministry has recently computerized land
registration, the limited staffing and other resources such as office space, often delays the response
to the requests to search statements. This leads to further holding up of the acquisition of the right
of way.
The office of the Administrator General is also at the core in the compensation process. It is a
common phenomenon that original owners of the properties are deceased and their estates are
managed by other administrators. However, obtaining official letters of administration is a lengthy
process, which is further delayed by limited personnel capacity in the office of the Administrator
General and the court processes. The delays in processing and obtaining these required documents
before compensation often affect timelines in the acquisition of the Right of Way.

3.6.2.2. Kampala Capital City Authority


In regard to the executing agency (KCCA), the implementation of KIIDP II, Batch 1 roads has built
capacity for the KCCA RAP team i.e. surveyors, Valuers, lawyers, physical planners and engineers. The
project technical team, in particular Engineers have a better understanding and appreciation of the RAP
issues. KCCA has recruited key personnel to enhance capacity to specifically support KIIDP II project
undertake RAP activities. For example, a surveyor has been recruited to specifically handle KIIDP land
acquisition issues, including surveying and further explaining to PAPs the extent of the road impact on
their properties as well as expediting mutation and return of PAPs land titles, thus enhancing their
understanding and trust of the project activities. ASocial Development Specialist has also been recruited
to enhance handling RAP aspects including community engagements. Similarly, the recruitment of a
Communication Specialist has enhanced stakeholders’ engagement and improved information
dissemination about the project and its operations, public and community dialogue through media,
printing and distribution of flyers and face to face interactions.Nevertheless, while the team is gaining
more experience in executing the RAP based on World Bank principles, the amount of work is also
increasing as implementation of additional roads is initiated. Additional works will require more RAP
and safeguards activities. The increased need for support from sociology specialists is being
Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 29
considered by KCCA, for example a process of recruiting resettlement officers to support the RAP
team is on-going. These will provide more presence at community level, enable more regular and
comprehensive engagement of PAPs on issues of the right of way and subsequently to reduce the
level and magnitude of complaints.
KCCA draws from lessons and experience gained from BATCH 1 roads, to improve on the process of
RAP implementation for Batch 2. For example, early initiation of safeguards implementation, before
the contractors mobilize. The choice roads to start implementation to put into consideration of those
with minimal RAP costs such as Acacia and Ntinda junction, given the limited RAP funds, as well as
making concerted efforts to secure the right of way prior to commencement of works. Subdividing
the road under construction into sub-sections and handing over only those sections where land has
been fully acquired,has been a good strategy in giving the contractor only unencumbered sites,
which KCCA will have to build on during implementation of Batch 2 roads. The current approach of
early and comprehensive engagement of PAPs on Batch 2 roads during the process of signing consent
agreements to provideland at no cost will be important in early acquisition of the right of way
identification of snag areas and their early resolution before hiring the contractor. Moreover,
compensation for affected properties will be done prior to handing over of site to the contractorto
avoid delays posed by encumbrances to right of way.
KCCAwill build on the experience gained from other roads, partnerships and cohesion built with
communities, local leadership and relevant institutions for early identification and management of
grievances related to land acquisition. Similarly, it will build on the network and enhance relations
with relevant agencies and offices like that of the Administrator General, Land office and financial
institutions to quickly resolve documentation related issues that often delay the compensation
process. The process is expected to be possible since KCCA internally implements the RAPs and the
staff has gained experience in executing the RAP based on World Bank principles
The district local governments in both Kampala and Wakiso Districts have been involved in the
monitoring of quite many resettlement projects in their jurisdiction which are internationally funded.
This has thus helped them to gain some experience in RAP implementation. The Grievance redress
committees already established and orientated under KIIDP 1 such as in Nakawa, Rubaga and
Makindye divisions will continue to be relevant in Batch 2 roads implementation utilizing the
experience gained so far in handling complaints.

4. PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND PARTICIPATION
4.1. Introduction
This chapter describes the different stages that the public consultation and participation took during
the planning and preparation of the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) for the selected road links and
junctions/intersections under KIIDP II. It further outlines the consultation plan during the
implementation of this RAP.
Early consultation helps to manage public expectations concerning the impact of a project and its
expected benefits. Subsequent consultations provide opportunities for the developer and Project
Affected Persons to negotiate compensation packages and eligibility requirements, resettlement
assistance, and the timing of resettlement activities.
In the context of resettlement, public participation includes both the information exchange
(dissemination and consultation), and collaborative forms of decision-making (participation).
Dissemination is a term used to refer to transfer of information from project authorities to the
affected population. Consultation, on the other hand, generally refers to joint discussion between
project authorities and the affected population serving as a conduit for transfer of information and
sharing of ideas. Public participation is an on-going process throughout resettlement planning and
implementation. The process was initiated during the feasibility and Environmental and Social Impact
Assessment (ESIA) phases and continued throughout the preparation of this RAP. The process will
further continue during the implementation of the RAP, monitoring and evaluation of compensation
payments, physical resettlement and livelihood restoration activities.

4.1.1. Objective of Public Consultation and Participation


In this context, information dissemination, consultation and participation of all stakeholders
including project affected people, reduces the potential for conflicts, minimizes the risk of project
delays, and enables the project to design resettlement and rehabilitation as a comprehensive
development program to suit the needs and priorities of the affected people. This in turn maximizes
the economic and social benefits of the investment to the client and also the stakeholders involved.
Specific objectives of the public information campaign and public consultation include the following:
• Fully and clearly share information about the proposed project, its components and its
activities, with the affected persons;
• Obtain information about the needs, concerns and priorities of the Project Affected Persons
(PAPs), as well as information about their reactions to proposed activities;
• Obtain the cooperation and participation of the PAPs and communities in activities required
to be undertaken for resettlement planning and implementation;
• Establish an easily accessible, convenient and effective complaints and grievance procedure
for the Project Affected Persons (PAPs);
• Ensure transparency while carrying out all activities related to land acquisition, resettlement
and rehabilitation.
• Discuss different forms of compensation and land acquisition including voluntary consent
and provision of land at no cost.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 31
The objectives of the consultation are in line with the World Bank guidelines and the funding Agency
(International Development Association) guidelines. WBOP 4.12 (13 a) stipulates that any displaced
persons and their communities and any host communities receiving them should be provided with
timely and relevant information, consulted on resettlement options and offered opportunities to
participate in planning, implementing and monitoring resettlement.
Views from stakeholders at all levels (national, local government and residents in the project area)
were sought through interviews and public meetings. Feedback from these consultations has been
taken into account when preparing this RAP Report.
Additionally, affected people were fully informed about their rights, the avenues to submit
grievances and complaints, and about their options for compensation, resettlement and other
assistance.

4.2. Stakeholders Identification and Composition


Stakeholders are defined as persons or groups who are directly or indirectly affected by operations of
development interventions, as well as those who have an interest in the operations and/or the ability
to influence its outcome either positively or negatively.
Stakeholder consultation was a continuous activity during the course of the RAP study. The
Consultant used purposive methods in identifying the relevant stakeholders. During the months of
March, April and May 2016, several consultations were undertaken by the RAP study team and
multiple groups of stakeholders were consulted. The consultations continued in the months of
October, November and December 2016 during the process of identifying options to minimize land
acquisition. The main groups of stakeholders consulted are described below.

4.2.1. Directly Affected Persons


The directly affected people are those who reside in or derive their living from areas where the
project will have a direct impact on the land acquired consisting of all the project components. All
the directly affected people in the different divisions and villages, along the selected road links and
junctions or intersections were informed and consulted on major issues concerning the resettlement
and compensation process, grievance resolution mechanisms, etc. Directly affected persons in this
context include all communities directly affected by land acquisition for the selected road links and
junctions in Kampala City and Wakiso District, MakindyeSsabagabo Sub County. These include
households, companies/institutions, vulnerable groups such as women, the elderly, youth, and the
disabled. A list of directly affected villages per Division/Sub County is presented in Table 1-3.

4.2.2. Indirectly Affected Persons


This particular group of people includes all those who reside near project features or are reliant on
resources in the project area and will have to relocate or adjust their livelihoods because of the
project activities such as business operators, bodaboda riders, etc. Consultations were held with the
different communities residing and operating in close proximity of the selected road links and
junctions.

4.3. National Stakeholders/Government Institutions


A number of stakeholders and government institutions at national level were consulted. These
included the following:

4.4. Approach and Method for Public Consultations

4.4.1. Meetings with National, Local Government Leadership and other


Stakeholders
The RAP study team made several appointments with the different stakeholders at national and local
government levels. Appointments with stakeholders were mainly made through formal letters
(Appendix A), one provided by KCCA and another from NEWPLAN Ltd. Meetings were held at the
respective government offices as per the consultation schedule in Table 4-1andTable 4-2. Power
Point Presentations were the main means of information dissemination about the project to the
concerned parties.
In addition, meetings were constantly held with the design team and KCCA engineers and Social
Development team in a bid to minimize the impact on people’s property. For the same purpose, a
meeting was held with World Bank officials. These meetings were held at convenient venues chosen
by KCCA and the design team.

4.4.2. Meetings with Directly and Indirectly Affected Communities


Mobilisation of the communities was mainly done by the chairpersons of the respective villages
through village speakers, telephone calls. In addition, the media (radio) was used to inform
communities about the project activities and sensitisation programs. Radio announcements were run
on two local radio stations considered to have wide listenership in the two districts i.e. Central
Broadcasting Service (CBS) and Radio One. Announcements ran for 1 day, 3 times aday. A copy of the
radio announcement is attached to this report as Appendix B. A consultation program for all the
affected villages in the area was drawn with the help of the village chairpersons.
A total of 15 community meetings2 were held for the different project roads. In addition, one-on-one
meetings were held with individuals who requested for additional clarifications.
In addition, 6 meetings for local government leadership (technical and political) were organised: 1 for
Wakiso District officials and 5 for the 5 affected sub counties.
Approximately 2,016 participants turned up for the community meetings of which 57% were men
and 43% were women. Community meetings were conducted in Luganda and English depending on
the participants’ preference.
All the discussions were opened with a brief introduction of the project, its purpose, upcoming
activities and the different teams involved. The team then guided the participants to obtain their
views. Questions from the participants were answered where possible. Some of the meetings were
attended by the Client (KCCA) who managed to clarify some of the misconceptions about the project.
In the public meetings held, information brochures (Appendix C) were distributed among the
participants to provide them with more information about the project and project activities.
Photographs of each meeting were also taken. In addition, participants were requested to fill
attendance lists. (Copies of some of the attendance lists are attached as Appendix D). Table 4-1and
Table 4-2show the schedule of meetings for the different stakeholders consulted.

2The number does not include subsequent engagements on voluntary consent to allow construction at no cost.

4.6. Salient Issues to be considered during RAP Implementation


 Principles of Valuation and Eligibility Criteria: Information regarding these issues should be
disseminated to the PAPs to enhance understanding of valuation principles and eligibility
criteria followed. This will help to reduce on the number of grievances that may arise.
 Voluntary consent: Allaspects regarding requests to provision of land for road construction
at no cost should be well articulated, true facts given about the road project, amount of land
to be affected and voluntary nature of the providing the land – without coercion. The
compensation entitlements such as for structures and crops also should be explained.
 PAP’s requirements during verification and compensation: Information regarding
requirements e.g. original land titles, land agreements, valid identifications, guardianship
orders, Powers of Attorney, Letters of Administration, bank accounts, etc. during the
verification and compensation process should be disseminated in time to avoid any delays.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 42
 Grievance Resolution Mechanism: It will be important to continuously disseminate
information about the Grievance Resolution Mechanism to enable PAPs lodge their
complaints.
 Mode of payment: The mode of payment for the compensation packages need to be
communicated to the PAPs early.
 Notice to vacate land: The notice to vacate land to PAPs should be given early enough to
give PAPs enough time to make way for the contractor and to salvage any materials that they
may be interested in.
 Titling process: The process of titling the project land should be clearly explained to the PAPs
and the expected titling duration.
 Continuous engagement with the PAPs will be of paramount importance during the RAP
implementation process to reduce construction delays.
 Mode of communication: All avenues to disseminate information should be considered e.g.
use of the media, telephone calls, public speakers, local leaders, formal letters, etc.

4.7. Public Consultation & Disclosure Plan (PCDP) during RAP


Implementation
The public consultation process was initiated at the beginning of project i.e. during the feasibility and
ESIA phases and will be on-going during the implementation of the RAP. It should be noted that there
are already ongoing discussions between Kampala Capital City Authority and Wakiso District
leadership and Kampala Capital City Division Mayors (Nakawa, Lubaga and Makindye) on
compensation-related matters along Kabuusu-Kitebi-Bunamwaya, Kulambiro and Lukuli roads. In
addition, consultations are ongoing between KCCA and the different affected persons along the
different roads in relation to available compensation and land acquisition options such as, provision
of Right of Way at no compensation, replacement of paved ways and perimeter walls, etc.
A Public Consultation and Disclosure Plan (PCDP) that outlines the consultations process to be
followed during the implementation of the Resettlement Action Plan is shown in Table 4-6. The PCDP
highlights the kind of stakeholder, their relevance, mode of engagement, timing and responsible
personnel.
The PCDP objectives are to:
• Provide sufficient, balanced, objective, accurate and consistent information to assist
stakeholders to understand the project;
• Obtain feedback from stakeholders on project related issues;
• Work directly with stakeholders throughout the process to ensure that their concerns and
needs are consistently understood and considered;
• Partner with the stakeholders in the implementation of resettlement activities; and
• Create an enabling environment through which the project will smoothly operate in friendly
co-existence with other stakeholders.
• Mobilize and sensitize PAPs about voluntary consent to the provision of land at no cost.

Page 43
A timetable will be prepared at the start of implementation of the RAP and the dates for the
engagements will be confirmed with the different stakeholders. Notices for the meetings need to be
provided at least 1 week before the meeting to allow for mobilisation of the stakeholders.
Information will be disseminated to the relevant stakeholders through one-on-one meetings,
workshops, village meetings, the media and project brochures, among others.

4.8. Mobilization and Sensitization about Approaches to Land Acquisition
and Voluntary Consent Agreements to the Right of Way
In order to secure the right of way at an early stage and to discuss constraints and challenges related
to acquisition of the Right of Way, several stakeholder engagements were carried out along the
priority selected roads i.e. Acacia, Kulambiro, Bunamwaya and Lukuli. The purpose of engagement
was to inform communities about the proposed road projects, including sources of funding. The
engagements were with in form of the general community meetings, feedback meetings with the
communities and discussions with local leaders. Local government leaders engaged included the
political leadership (Division Mayors and Councillors) and lower level local leaders.
A fact sheet and brochures about the project was developed and distributed to local leaders and
community members. The facts about the projects were guided by the draft designs and RAP.
Explanations were given and continue to will continuously be given about the road project including
funding, roles and responsibilities of different government institutions, potential benefits of the
roads as well as the challenges among others. Options for compensation such as the reinstatement
of structures like fences and pavements by the contractor were explained to the PAPs. In addition,
PAPs were explained to the potential benefits of the improved road, both at individual and
community level.
Communities were informed about the government role in compensation and acquisition of the right
of way. Further explanations were given about government willingness to pay, but also the
challenges and the delays these usually cause. Due to the poor condition of the roads, the urgency
the communities required to have the roads constructed and the fact that most of the land take was
less 1%, majority of the community members agreed to voluntarily provide the land for road
construction at no cost. It was further clarified to communities that the choice of roads was based on
priorities set by KCCA, based on its assessment of need and equity in its development programmes
rather than which communities provided land or not. The donation of land for the right of way
voluntary is was agreed upon willingly without anyand but not mandatory for the road construction.
coercion. Further discussions were made on cases where compensation by KCCA will be inevitable.
In total, there were 19 engagements of which 8 were community meetings, 6 were engagements
with the respective local leaders and were 5 feedback meetings. A total of 1,222 participants were
involved in the engagements. A summary of the engagements is summarised in Table 4-7. Several
issues were brought by the communities during engagements, among them being the history of
community contributions towards infrastructure development. In Kulambiro for example, the
proposed road was opened through community self mobilization, where they attempted to tarmac it
using community resources. Cases of land donations were given for community centres and a police
post being constructed through community self-help.
The community engagements discussed the process of voluntary land donation which involves the
individual signing of consent agreements (Copy attached as Appendix O). Consent forms were
distributed to the participants for demonstration. All information therein was explained and
clarification was provided on some of the clauses that were not clear to the communities/ PAPs, the
size of the affected land was also clearly explained to the PAPs and specified in the consent forms.
Strip maps were displayed and the extent of road was pegged to indicate to PAPs the impact on their
land. PAPs that showed willingness to voluntarily give their land at no cost signed the consent forms
with the impact on the land highlighted on the form. The forms were signed in the presence of local
leaders as the witnesses with the endorsement from the Division Mayors and a KCCA officials. PAPs
who signed the consent agreements retained a copy of the agreement for future reference. Table 4-8

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 48
summarizes the number of PAPs that have so far signed voluntary consents for the provision of the
right or way.
The local leaders pledged to continue the mobilisation and sensitisation of communities about the
Right of Way. Some of the leaders have since held media briefs about the project. The process is an
on-going process that will continue during RAP Implementation.
Grievance redress committees at Division levels have been set up along each of the roads where
PAPs agreed to voluntarily give their land at no cost. In addition, community level grievance
committees have been established along each road, comprising of village and or parish level local
leaders with PAPs representatives to enable easier access to PAPs with complaints
Table 4-7 shows a summary of meetings and community participation to discuss voluntary consent to
provide land.

5. SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE CONDITIONS
5.1. Introduction
This section of the report presents the findings on the socio economic conditions of the people
that will be directly affected by the project and the general socioeconomic conditions of the
area. Socioeconomic data in resettlement planning helps; to assess the impacts of the project on
the project affected persons, to provide a baseline for any future monitoring of the PAPs, to
identify PAPs most at risk from the impacts of land acquisition and resettlement and to provide
a basis for informed consultation about available and realistic compensation options, etc.
Given the urban nature of the project, where the land use is mainly commercial, the unit of
analysis was mainly the property owner herein referred to as the Project Affected Person (PAP).

5.2. General Socio-Economic Profile of Project Area

5.2.1. Population and Demographic Characteristics


5.2.1.1. Population, Average Household Size
According to the provisional results of the Housing and Population Census 2014, the total
population of Kampala District is 1,516,210 persons of which, 793,573 are female and 722,638
are male. Makindye Division has the highest population while the Central Division has the least
population size.
Wakiso District has a population of 2,007,700 persons of which 952,781 are male and 1,054,919
are female. MakindyeSabagabo Sub County is the most populated among the rural sub-counties.
The average household size is 3.5 and 3.9 for Kampala and Wakisodistricts respectively, which
are both lower than the national average of 4.7.

5.2.1.2. Literacy
The Uganda National Housing Survey 2012/2013 report indicates that in Kampala, the literacy
rate for persons aged 10 and above in the year 2012/2013 stood at 93% with males at 95% and
females at 92%. The report further stratified Wakiso District under Central 1 and the literacy
rate for this region stood at 81% with males at 86% and females at 77%. This shows a high
literacy rate among the persons in Kampala and Wakiso Districts.

5.2.1.3. Ethnic Composition


The proposed roads and junctions are largely located in Kampala, the capital city of the country
which is inhabited by ethnic groups from all over Uganda. There are also ethnic groups from
other neighbouring countries such as South Sudan, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi and
Democratic Republic of Congo, among others. The project area is also inhabited by expatriates
from other continents other than Africa. However, the most dominant tribe is the Baganda. The
Luganda language is widely understood by most of the residents in the two project areas.

5.2.2. Land Use and Land Tenure
The principle land use in Kampala and Wakiso Districts and along the project roads is mainly
settlements both residential and commercial with small scale agriculture. Small-scale agriculture
is widely distributed in the existing residential areas as well as peripheral areas.
Land ownership in Kampala and Wakiso Districts is under mailo, leasehold, freehold and
customary tenure systems (MoLHUD & UNDP 2008). There are four tenure system through
which land can be held in Uganda and is stipulated in article 237 of the 1995 Constitution of
Uganda. Kampala City Council Development Plan (2009 - 2011), indicated that 75% of the land in
Kampala is categorized as mailo, 15% as leasehold, 7% Kabaka’s land and 3% as freehold land.

5.2.3. Economic Activities, Employment and Income Sources

5.2.3.1. Economic Activities


The 2002 Uganda Population and Housing Census reported that majority (64.2%) of the people
in Kampala District are engaged in employment, 19.4% in trading in non-agricultural products,
9.3% in trading in agricultural produce, 1.7% in animal rearing, 1.0% in fishing, 0.1% in crop
farming and 4.2% in other activities.
During field visits, it was observed that the population within and around Kampala is actively
involved in various economic activities for their day to day survival. Economic activities majorly
include trade in items such as foodstuffs, furniture, construction materials, clothes and shoes
and all sorts of merchandise.

5.2.3.2. Employment
Uganda National Household Survey (UNHS) 2009/2010 revealed that the unemployment rate
was highest in Kampala District at 11.4%.
In Kampala district, majority of the people are either directly employed in organizations or are
self-employed. These organizations range from business conglomerates, construction, financial,
energy, food and beverage, manufacturing, foreign exchange bureaus, hotels, mass media,
telecommunication, transportation and consultancy, among others.

5.2.3.3. Income Levels


According to the Uganda National Housing Survey 2012/2013 report, Kampala had the largest
share of monthly incomes above 500,000/= (47.4%). Table 5-1illustrates the distribution of
monthly incomes (classes) within Kampala and the Central region households. The sources of
income include subsistence farming, wage/salaried employment, transfers/remittances,
commercial urban farming, non-agricultural enterprises and rent, among others.

5.2.4. Settlement Pattern, Nature and Type of Buildings


Kampala is a city with a lot of diversity in settlement pattern and building types. Settlements
along the proposed road links and junctions are linear in nature and congested in most of the
areas. Congestion was mainly noted on Namungoona and Kayemba roads. The settlements
comprise of both commercial and residential structures, educational and religious institutions.
Acacia road has structures majorly for commercial purposes unlike all other roads. Most of the
buildings in the project areas are of permanent nature. Temporary structures along the road are
mainly in form of kiosks and market vending stalls.

5.2.5. Transport and Communication


Both Kampala and Wakiso Districts are vibrant areas with transport facilities including taxis,
buses, personal vehicles, motor cycles commonly known as bodabodas and bicycles. The roads
are also used by heavy trucks and lorries transporting all kinds of goods. Pedestrians including
school children are also a common sight along the Kampala and Wakiso roads.
The proposed road links and junctions are currently in fair to poor condition. Some of the roads
are paved but will require rehabilitation, others are paved but narrow and will require dualling
while others are unpaved and will require upgrading to paved state.
Most of the roads and junctions are characterized by heavy traffic during peak hours thus taking
a lot of the users’ time to reach the desired destination. Traffic lights are non-existent on most
of the junctions and traffic is mainly managed by traffic policemen. In addition, very few roads
have street lighting giving an opportunity for increase in the crime rate in the city.
In regard to communication, communication companies such as MTN, Airtel, Vodafone, Uganda
Telecom, Smile Telecom, Africell, etc. provide Kampala and Wakiso residents and visitors with
mobile communication services, internet services and all related communication services.
Kampala is the home of quite a number of television and radio stations such as CBS, Super FM,
Top Radio, Radio Sapientia, WBS, NBS, and Bukedde TV, etc. CBS and Radio Sapientia are located
near the Bulange Junction and Hanlon Junction in Nsambya respectively. The residents in the
two project areas access information on different issues mainly through radios, televisions,
telephones and newspapers.

5.2.6. Water and Sanitation
5.2.6.1. Water Supply

National Water and Sewerage Corporation is the main service provider of water and sewerage
services in the two districts. Some households and institutions also practice rain water
harvesting. NWSC water is accessed through house connections and yard tap connections.
Households without house connections access water through buying from those with yard tap
connections.

5.2.6.2. Sanitation
Waste disposal in Kampala and Wakiso Districts is currently a major challenge and is a threat to
sanitation and the health of the people in the city. The types of wastes generated by the people
of Kampala and Wakiso include: food wastes, liquid wastes, plastics, industrial waste from small
scale industries, etc. These are disposed of anyhow littering everywhere e.g. in water channels,
drainages, by the roadsides, etc.
Solid waste management in Kampala city is carried out byKCCA assisted by some contracted
private garbage collectors. About 10% of the households in the city are served by KCCA, assisted
by private garbage collection firms, while the remaining waste is disposed of by the generating
households.

In general, sanitation along the proposed roads is poor. There is need for change of attitude and
behaviour when it comes to garbage disposal. A lot of effort and enforcement of strict laws will
be required by the KCCA authorities in terms of proper waste disposal to avoid or minimize
waste disposal in the newly constructed drainages along the different roads.

5.2.7. Education Facilities


According to KCCA Ministerial Policy Statement (2013-14), Kampala has a total of 2,092 public
and private education institutions. These include 803 Pre-primary schools, 964 primary schools,
295 secondary schools and 30 tertiary institutions. Lubaga Division has the highest number of
education institutions with 26.2% of all schools in Kampala. Lubaga division is followed by
Makindye (25.3%), Kawempe (23.8%) and Nakawa (17.4%). The Central Division has the least
number of schools with only 7.2% of the entire schools in the city. Other education programmes
include Special Needs Education (SNE). Kampala for instance has got special needs schools such
as Nakawa School for the deaf, Naguru Remand Home, Ntinda School for the deaf and Mulago
school for the deaf. There are also schools with inclusive education (with special needs units)
such as Naguru Preparatory School, Kyambogo Primary School and Wandegeya Muslim Primary
School.

Page 53
According to Wakiso District Development Plan (2010/11 – 2014/15), the district has a total of
567 primary schools with 246 government, 257 private and 64 community schools. For
secondary schools, the district has over 139 schools, 18 are government, 73 private and 48
community. It also has 1 Teacher Training College, 2 Technical Institutes, Nkumba University,
Meteorological School and Fisheries Training Institute (Vocational Institutes). Wakiso District has
some of the best performing schools in the country especially at Uganda Certificate of Education
(UCE) and Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE) levels.

5.2.8. Health Facilities


According to Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) Statistical Abstract 2015, the number of health
facilities in the two districts is as shown in the Table 5-2below.

5.3. Socio-Economic Conditions of Project Affected Persons/ Households

5.3.1. Demographic Characteristics of Affected Households

5.3.1.1. Gender and Age of Affected Persons


The majority of the Project Affected Persons are male (65.6%) while 34.4% are female. In terms
of age, the average age of the affected person is 52 years with the youngest being 19 years old
and the eldest 94 years. The findings showed that 10.3% of the property owners were in the age
range of 18-35 years, 51.1.% were in the age range of 36-55 years, 23.3% were between 56-65
years while 15.3% were over 65 years old.

5.3.1.2. Household Size and Composition of Affected Persons


The average household size of the PAPs’ households is 6 persons with the smallest household
having 1 person and the largest having 27 members. The average number of biological children
per household is 4 children while the average number of other dependants in a household is 1.

5.3.1.3. Marital Status


The findings of the socioeconomic survey show that majority of the Project Affected Persons
(68.7%) are married, 11.5% are widowed, 12.0% are single, 3.3% are cohabiting and 4.5% are

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility

Page 54
divorced/separated. In terms of gender, the findings show that 37.9% of the female PAPs are
widowed. On a gender perspective, out of the widowed property owners, the majority (87.5%)
are female. These are 10% of all the property owners.

5.3.1.4. Ethnicity and Religion


The majority (73.2%) of the property owners are Baganda and 26.8% are from other tribes. In
regard to religion, 35.5% are Protestants, 37.0% are Catholics, 20.7% are Muslims and 6.8%
subscribe to other religions such as Pentecostal and Seventh Day Adventism.

5.3.1.5. Education levels


The socioeconomic findings indicated that 42.6% of the PAPs attained tertiary level of
education, 35.2% attained secondary education, 19.6% attained primary education and 2.1% did
not attain any education. This indicates relatively high education levels among the Project
Affected Persons. On a gender perspective, the levels of education for female property owners
didn’t differ significantly from those of the male property owners as shown inFigure 5-1.

Figure 5-1: Education Levels of Owners by Sex

5.3.2. Vulnerable Groups


Analysis of the socioeconomic findings revealed that there were vulnerable groups affected by
the proposed land take for the different roads. These include the elderly who are above 65 years
(15.3%). Further analysis of the affected persons above 65 years showed that 40.6% of the
elderly PAPs were in the age range of 75-99 years while 59.4% of them were 66-74 years old.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 55
The analysis of the results also showed that among the affected persons (10%) are widows, 2.2%
are disabled. During the implementation of the RAP, other vulnerable groups may emerge such
as PAPs who may fail to acquire Letters of Administration for the affected property and these
will need to be supported on a case by case basis.

5.3.3. Land Tenure, Ownership and Size


Different types of land tenure
Uganda has four land tenure systems described in the constitution as below:
1. Mailo land: This is where land is registered and owned in perpetuity, with its holder
having a certificate of tile.
2. Freehold: This is similar to Mailo land, in that it is owned in perpetuity, with a certificate
of title. This is mostly owned by institutions such as churches, academic institution and
in a few cases individuals.
3. Customary: Under this system, land is communally or jointly owned by a group of
people, such as clans, communities and families. Usually the land is not registered.
4. Leasehold: This is where one party grants another person the right to exclusive
possession for a specified period of time. The most common period in Uganda is 49
years.
In addition to the above, the law recognized kibanja or bibanja (plural) owners. By
kibaja/bibanja, we mean bonafide occupants, who are tenants sitting on registered land. The
law protects their rights
The land tenure under the proposed road links and junctions is as shown in Table 5-3.

Page 56
5.3.4. Length of Ownership of the Land
The socioeconomic findings showed that the majority (43.4%) of the PAPs and their families
owned the land for more than 20 years, 12.5% owned it for 15-20 years, 11.5% owned it for 11-
15 years, 16.5% owned it for 6-10 years and15.9% of the PAPs owned the land for less than a
year to 5 years. This implies strong social ties for the affected persons. The long term ownership
of the land among the affected population could possibly be as a result of scarcity of land in
urban and semi-urban areas and more specifically in strategic locations i.e. close to the road.

5.3.5. Income Sources


The socio-economic studies carried out showed that the Project Affected Persons earn a living
through engaging in various activities. The biggest percentage of the population (42.2%) are
involved in trading/business, 18.3% are salaried workers, 11.8% get income from renting their
premises, 6.3% are engaged in farming, 4.8% depend on remittances from government
(pensioners). Others (16.6%) are engaged in other activities such as taxi driving, bodaboda
riding, casual labour, religious leaders, etc. It was also noted that 12.0% of the PAPs are involved
in more than one income generating activity for example one can be a salaried worker as well as
an entrepreneur.Figure 5-2 shows the different income sources for Project Affected Persons.

Figure 5-2: Income Sources of Affected Persons

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 57
In regard to income, the findings of the socioeconomic survey indicate that the average monthly
income for Project Affected Persons is 5,289,828 UGX (1,511USD). Further analysis of the data
indicates that each PAP earns an average of 176,328 UGX (50USD) per day. The results imply
that the Project Affected Persons live above the poverty line and are not considered poor. An
analysis of income by source of income showed that the sources of income that generate the
most money include business/trading, salary, service provision and rental houses. Owners of
institutions and companies reported that on average they earned UGX 79,973,511 (USD 23,521)
per month from the property along the road.
Further analysis of the level of income by the different categories of PAPs showed that the
female widowed PAPs earned the least, followed by the elderly PAPs, while the male PAPs
earned the most as shown inTable 5-4. It should however be noted that the income-related
information provided may not be very accurate as many people do not want to disclose their
actual income.

Male 7,037,250 2,011 234,575 67
All PAPs 5,289,828 1,511 176,328 50

5.3.6. Assets Owned


The ownership of assets is a key indicator of a household’s welfare and wellbeing. In particular,
the types of assets owned are an indicator of measure for their socio-economic status. The most
common assets owned by Project Affected Persons are land, houses, television sets, radio and
cellphones.

5.3.7. Sources of Energy


The main sources of energy for affected persons are electricity and charcoal for lighting and
cooking respectively.

5.3.8. Access to Information


The results of the socioeconomic survey showed the most common means of access to
information for affected households is mainly through radio, television, telephone and
newspapers as shown inFigure 5-3.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 58
Figure 5-3: Means of Access to Information

5.3.9. Access to Credit Facilities


The socio-economic survey findings showed that the majority of the Project Affected Persons
(77.8%) have bank accounts while 22.3% do not have bank accounts.
The banks are located in different places depending on the PAPs’ accessibility and preference.
The banks mostly used by the PAPs include Centenary Bank, Equity Bank, Opportunity Bank,
Barclays Bank, Pride Microfinance, Stanbic Bank, Post Bank and Bank of Africa. The majority of
the banks are located within a distance of not more than 10 km from the project area.

5.3.10. Gender Issues


During the socioeconomic survey process, it was established that the larger percentage of
property owners/affected persons was composed of men with a percentage of 65.6% as
compared to the women whose composition was 34.4% which is commonin most patrilineal
societies.
The socioeconomic survey findings further revealed that about 72.2% of the men allow their
wives to make decisions regarding land while 27.8% do not. This is very good because it is a
demonstration of trust among couples that further promotes peace and also development
generally.
During compensation, women will be expected to consent on the compensation packages and
will be asked to open up joint bank accounts with their husbands where necessary i.e. in case of
family property or property jointly owned by the couple.

6. PROJECT IMPACTS
6.1. Introduction
This chapter describes the project impacts arising out of the proposed interventions on the
different priority roads. It is important to identify all project affected persons and all the adverse
impacts associated with the project’s land acquisition so as to propose adequate mitigation
measures. This being an urban area, a lot of effort has been made to minimize the impact of
land acquisition.

6.2. Alternatives to Minimize Land Acquisition, Resettlement and Other


Impacts
The urban setting of the project roads implies that they are in close proximity to informal,
residential, commercial and industrial structures thus an indication of severe impact on the
adjacent land and buildings. WB OP4.12 2(a) stipulates that involuntary resettlement should be
avoided where feasible, or minimized by exploring all viable alternative designs. Design
options/alternatives have been considered to minimize impacts of land acquisition and physical
resettlement.
The design consultant took into consideration the need to minimize land take beyond the
existing road reserve to come up with a number of design options. Several meetings were held
with the KCCA team, World Bank, the Design Consultant and the RAP team to come up with
proper strategies to minimize the impact of land acquisition and resettlement. Design options
have been modified a number of times in order to come up with the best options that meet the
above objective. The following factors mandated the need to minimize land acquisition and
resettlement:
 High values for land and structures along the different roads thus making the
compensation cost very high.
 Limited resources to compensate affected property.
 Dense population along the different roads due to their urban nature.
The design alternatives considered to minimize land acquisition included:
Option 1: Full Typical Cross Sections
 Two or four trafficked lanes, cycle lane, kerb and channel, and a sidewalk to
accommodate pedestrians.
 Combining the cycle land and the pedestrian walkway into a “shared path”.The shared
path is separated from the trafficked lanes by a non-mountable kerb.
Option 2: Reduced Typical Cross Sections
 In the case of dual carriageway (Road Class KU) project roads, removing the centre
median island as well as the second lane in each direction.
Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 60
 Reducing the shared path to 1.5m.
 Reduction of lane width of Road Class KC to 3m.
Option 3: Reduced (1m) Typical Cross Sections
 Reduction of the shared path to 1m.
Option 1 would have severe impact on property, Option 2 would have reduced impact on
property and Option 3 would have further reduced impact on property. The impacts have
broadly been categorised as follows:
 Impacts on land and developments; and
 Socio-economic impacts.

6.3. Impacts on Land and Developments


The impacts on land and developments will entail;
• Loss of land,
• Loss of buildings and other structures, and
• Loss of crops/trees.

6.3.1. Loss of Land


A total of 24.8acres (10 Ha) of land will be acquired to improve the 8 proposed priority roads in
Group 1. This includes, titled land, titled land with kibanja holders and untitled land (kibanja).
The impact of land will differ from each individual or company/institution. The land survey
showed that some pieces of land crossed the existing carriageway. Land in the existing
carriageway has not been included in the compensation budget. Table 6-1shows the size of land
to be acquired per road.

The asset survey further showed that there will be 16 public institutions that will lose a portion
of their land to theproject as shown in Table 6-2.Analysis of the information shows that on
average the institutions will only lose 2.7% of their land which impact is considered very
minimal.

6.3.2. Loss of Buildings and Other Structures


A total of 13 buildings will be affected by the implementation of the proposed interventions on
the different priority roads. The buildings comprise of residential (4), commercial (7) and
buildings used by the public (2). These were found along only 4 roads as shown in Error!
Reference source not found.. The buildings used by the public are a temporary church structure
and a residential structure turned into a nursery school.
In terms of buildings, most of the buildings are affected by a portion of land take. However the
entire buildings were assessed and they can be remodelled or re-constructed on the remaining
piece of land. An analysis of the land take for PAPs with affected buildings is shown in Table 6-3.

The analysis of the survey data showed that 14 public institutions (Table 6-4) will have part of
their structures affected. The structures mainly comprise of chain link fences, brick perimeter
walls and concrete paved ways. Affected institutions are owned either by the government,
religious institutions or individuals.

6.3.3. Loss of Trees and Crops


Along the different roads, there will be loss of trees and crops. Trees that will be affected
include compound trees, gravelia trees, acacia trees, palm trees, tick trees, sisal trees, herbal
trees; fruit trees such as mango trees, orange trees and crops like bananas.
Crops that will be eligible for compensation are perennial and annual crops.

6.4. Socio-economic Impacts


The sections below present the socioeconomic impacts of the road. However, it is
imperative to note that the impacts described are just a part of the broader range
of the socioeconomic impacts that are discussed in the main Environmental and
Social Impact report for the project, with the respective suggested mitigation
measures.

6.4.2. Vulnerable Groups


Vulnerability can be defined as the diminished capacity of an individual or group to anticipate,
cope with, resist and recover from the impact of a natural or man-made hazard. People differ in
their exposure to risk as a result of their social group, gender, ethnicity or other identity, age
and other factors.
The impacts on the potentially vulnerable groups may be more severe than for the other
affected persons as vulnerable groups may have fewer resources to cope with the changes the
project causes them. Vulnerable groups for this project have been identified as follows:
 The elderly (65 years and above);
 The disabled; and
 Widows.
There were no ethnic minorities identified among vulnerable PAPs. However, aA further analysis
of the socioeconomic information however showed that although some PAPs were elderly, or
widows, their income levels were high thus considered to have good coping mechanisms.
The elderly above 65 years are 15.3% of the affected people, 10% are widows and 2.2% are
disabled (physical).

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 67
The findings also showed that some affected persons had more than one type of vulnerability
e.g. elderly and disabled, elderly widows. It is recommended that during the implementation of
the project, a further case by case analysis be carried out for the above mentioned vulnerable
groups or other PAPs /people for any additional special assistance that may be required. A list of
the identified property owners with different categories of vulnerabilities is provided in
Appendix H.
It is also possible that other vulnerable groups may emerge such as PAPs who may fail to acquire
Letters of Administration and any other legal documentation for the affected property.
Guidance in relation to the legal process of acquiring Letters of Administration and any other
relevant legal documentation will be provided to these PAPs by KCCA’s legal team.
It should be noted that due to the efforts to minimize the impact of land acquisition and
resettlement, in general the impact on the vulnerable groups is very minimal. Like other
affected persons, most of the vulnerable people are losing very small pieces of land, others
losing paved ways and some trees. None of the identified vulnerable PAPs will physically be
displaced.

6.5. Positive Impacts from the Project


Despite the negative impacts, the project is also expected to come with positive impacts as
listed below:
 Direct employment opportunities;
 Increased business opportunities;
 Improved mobility of vehicles, reduction in travel time and reduced traffic congestion;
 Reduced vehicle wear and tear thus reduced maintenance costs;
 Reduction in dust levels;
 Increase in value of land and property along the roads;
 Improved sanitation and a reduction in related diseases;
 Street lighting; and
 Improved Scenic Beauty/Aesthetics.

7. ELIGIBILITY FOR COMPESATION
This Chapter presents the criteria for compensation for the different affected property and
persons.

7.1. Eligibility Criteria for Land and Developments


In particular, this project considered all those who have formal legal rights to land (including
customary and traditional rights recognized under the laws of Uganda) as eligible for
compensation.
KCCA and community leaders in the Divisions engaged the PAPs towards voluntary provision of
the right of way. Some of the affected owners signed voluntary consent forms witnessed by
local leaders allowing road construction through their land at zero compensation. This category
of PAPs are eligible for compensation for their developments on the affected land.

7.2. Eligibility for Community/Public Compensation


Eligibility may also be claimed collectively, e.g. as a community or religious group, when the
assets lost are of communal property or use. There are quite a number of educational facilities
that will be affected by land take for the different roads and junctions. The institutions that own
affected property will receive the compensation as per the entitlement matrix in Table 7-1.

7.3. Loss of Income


In order to minimize the impact on the loss of the income and livelihood, the following
measures are proposed:

 Cash compensation to enable them restore or remodel their commercial buildings


or relocate elsewhere;
 Support from KCCA physical planning to expedite review of the structural plans for
reconstruction or remodelling of affected buildings
 Support from municipality divisions to provide temporary exemptions in rates and
or concessions in taxes to facilitate recovery of affected businesses
 Adequate notice to vacate premises;
 Provision of temporary business locations
 Restoration of affected sections as quickly as feasible;
 Provision of pedestrian access to businesses to minimize the impact of reduction in
customers; and
 Avoidance of total blockage of the remaining parking space as much as possible.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 69
7.4. Vulnerable Groups
WB OP 4.12 (8) requires that particular attention be paid to the needs of vulnerable groups
among those displaced such as those below the poverty line, landless, elderly; women and
children, indigenous peoples and ethnic minorities.
In the project context, a description of vulnerable groups is provided in Section 6.4.2.
The census indicated that none of the vulnerable PAPs will be significantly affected by the
project. However, it is recommended that monitoring of these persons be carried out
throughout the implementation of the RAP and the construction period of the different roads.
All vulnerable households that are affected by the project will be eligible for additional/special
assistance. Special/additional assistance will include assistance throughout the compensation
and claim process, assistance ensuring that they rightfully get their compensation, continuous
explanations about the process and assistance to open up bank accounts.

7.5. Proof of Eligibility


During the valuation process, a great deal of care was taken to ensure that the rightful owners
were recorded. Photocopies of certificates of titles, land sale agreements (these were collected),
confirmation from family members, neighbours and local leaders were also considered. In
addition, photographs of Paps recorded were taken and shall be attached to each file during the
implementation of the RAP. In the case of absentee PAPs during the assessment period, their
documentation and photographs will be taken prior to payment of their compensation
packages.

The RAP implementing team shall also consider several aspects for proof of eligibility and these
will include the following; written evidence indicating that the person purchased the land (e.g.
certificate of title, land sale agreements); received it as a donation or as a legacy or a successor;
documents proving succession grants, Letters of Administration in case of death of the owner,
and Guardianship Orders in case of minors. The roads being in an urban area where neighbours
may not be in position to ascertain the rightful owners, the project will rely greatly on
documentation and local leaders who may have knowledge of the property owners.

7.6. Cut-off Date


The entitlement cut-off date refers to the time when the valuation assessments of the land and
assets/developments on the land and a census of all the affected people are complete. The date
of the census will serve as the cut-off date for eligibility and no new arrivals in the project area
or assets created after the cut-off date will be eligible for compensation after this date.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility
in Kampala City

Page 70
The survey, valuation and socioeconomic surveys for Group 1 roads were completed in
December 2016 after revisions of the different road designs. This cut-off date is therefore 31st
December 2016. This will however put into consideration the absentee landlords who could not
be traced during the detailed RAP surveys but have legitimate claim to the affected property.

The PAPs were informed individually and during community meetings about the cut-off date.
The individual PAP cut-off dates were the dates when the PAPs’ property was surveyed and
enumerated and the project cut-off date was end of December 2016.

7.7. Entitlement Matrix


Entitlement matrix proposes eligibility and payments for the losses triggered by the project (e.g.
land, structures, trees, crops, etc.). Hence, based on analysis of the impact of the project and the
criteria for eligibility, the following entitlement matrix is developed on categories of PAPs
according to losses and their entitlement benefits. Table 7-1shows the entitlement for the
different assets.

8. VALUATION OF ASSETS AND COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES
8.1. Introduction
This Chapter describes the methodology followed during the inventory of affected property and persons
and the principles used to compute the compensation amounts. In order to account for the loss of
physical assets as well as loss of income either temporary or permanent, it was imperative that a
comprehensive asset and affected persons inventory along the different roads is carried out. This
inventory would also guide in coming up with the appropriate compensation amount for each affected
property. The valuation of assets was preceded by sensitization of communities and surveying of the
affected land.

8.2. Land Survey Methodology during RAP Preparation

8.2.1. Collection of Initial Cadastral Data from Land Offices


Cadastral data from KCCA Geographic Information System (GIS) Department and Department of Survey
and Mapping in Entebbe was collected to enable the Consultant acquire information about all the
surveyed or titled pieces of land within the proposed road reserve.

8.2.2. Setting-out (Demarcating) the Road Reserve


The setting out (demarcating) of the designed road reserve was done at 20m intervals, with wooden
pegs defining the road reserve extents and the meters on either side of the road. The setting out was
done using Hi-Target and CHC-GNSS X900 RTK Machines. The pegs showing the extents of the road
reserve were painted red or blue.

8.2.3. Land Boundary Surveys


A land boundary survey was carried out to demarcate and determine the actual size of land to be
acquired by the project. The boundaries of affected land were opened and picked. The survey was
conducted by professional land surveyors with Bachelor’s degrees in Land Surveying led by a registered
senior Land Surveyor.
The boundaries of the affected person’s land were surveyed using CHC X900 RTK GPS machine,
connected to a base stationed at a reliable UTM control. Surveying and opening land boundaries helped
to show ownership of property and to calculate the extent of the impact of land acquisition. Land area
summary sheets showing the extent of land take were prepared for each affected person. Property
owners and the LC I Chairpersons worked closely with the Surveyor during the survey for purposes of
transparency, confirming land boundaries and ownership of the affected property. Plot boundaries of
the affected surveyed land were also opened with the help of the survey data obtained from the lands
offices of Entebbe and KCCA GIS Department.
Based on the survey data, a Strip Map of the properties and the land to be taken by the proposed road
reserve was produced. The valuation for compensation of land was based on the data and results of the
land survey. Figure 8-1shows the land survey methodology used during RAP preparation.

City

Page 75
Figure 8-1: Land Survey Methodology

8.3. Valuation Methodologyduring RAP Preparation

8.3.1. Inventory and Registration of Affected Properties and Persons


In order to prepare for compensation and other resettlement benefits, it was imperative that a
comprehensive asset and affected persons inventory be prepared by the Consultant. A valuation survey
of affected property was carried out within the months of April and May2016 and updated in December
2016 after the design review, by a team led by registered Valuer supported by Assistant Valuers. The
inventory specified the type of buildings/structures, crops/trees, size of land and land tenure system
affected.
At the affected land plots, the Valuer took a careful assessment of the affected property. This was done
through measuring and counting of the affected property. A Property Assessment Form (copy attached
as Appendix G) was filled to record properties affected. Photographs of affected persons and property
were taken during the assessment. Seasonal crops were not included in the assessment as these would
be harvested by the owners before land take. Given the long duration between asset inventory and
implementation of the RAP, there is a possibility that PAPs will replant other crops after the harvest.
However, the 6 months’ notice to vacate land will be enough to allow them harvest any replanted crops.
Figure 8-2shows the valuation methodology used during RAP preparation.

City

Page 76
Figure 8-2: Valuation Methodology

8.3.2. Computation of Compensation


Compensation and its computation have continuously been hindering factors in the successful and
timely implementation of Resettlement Action Plans in Uganda. More often, the majority of the
grievances raised by affected persons are related to compensation packages. This was evidenced in the
consultative meetings with PAPs where the majority of concerns raised were in relation to
compensation. It is thus important to provide appropriate compensation approaches that meet both the
Ugandan and World Bank requirements.
The valuation assessment and computation of the compensation values was carried out in accordance
with the Ugandan land legislation specifically the Article 26 of the Constitution and Section 77 of the
Land Act as well as the Land Acquisition Act, 1965.
In addition, there were other principles followed during the valuation assessment. These included:
 The portion of titled land that extends within the existing road was measured and indicated in
the report but no value attached was attached.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in Kampala
City

Page 77
 Developments/property that are beyond the landtitles were assessed and included in the
report.
 Values of land for PAPs who already voluntarily consented to provide land at no cost were
deducted from the compensation amount. A template copy of the Voluntary Consent
Agreement is attached to this report as Appendix O.
The following sub sections show the methods used to compute compensation values for the different
affected assets.

8.3.2.1. Compensation Computation for Land


The assessment for land was based on market value and in accordance with Section 77(1) (a) of the
Land Act. During the exercise, research was carried out with the LC I leaders, land brokers and other
Valuation firms to obtain evidence of recent land transactions. Where no market information was
available in a particular village but available in the next village the latter information was used. Table
8-1shows the basis forthe land values per road.
Table 8-1: Basis for Land Values per Road

Road Name Basis for land values


Acacia Avenue Data collected within the project route indicated that a decimal of land was sold
Road /purchased at UGX 3.3 billion (3,300,000,000) to 11 billion (11,000,000,000).
Nakawa- Comparables within the actual project route were found from recent transactions in
Ntinda Road the affected area and those of the neighbouring areas. These ranged between UGX
100 million to 3 billion (100,000,000 – 3,000,000,000) for land with mailo certificates
and free hold andUGX 1.5 billion to 3 billion (1,500,000 – 3,000,000,000) for land
with leasehold per acre.
New Port Bell During the exercise, research was carried out with the LCs, neighbourhood brokers
Road and other Valuation firms to obtain evidence of recent land transactions. A range of
UGX 450,000,000 to UGX 2,000,000,000 per acre was captured.
Spring Road The comparables within the project area indicated that land around shell Bugolobi
fetches between UGX 40 to 50 million (40,000,000 – 50,000,000) per decimal for
leaseholds.
Lukuli Road A range of UGX 180,000,000 (Uganda Shillings One Hundred and Eighty Million) to
UGX 800,000,000 (Uganda Shillings Eight Hundred Million) an acre was captured.
Comparables within the actual project route could not be found due to lack of recent
transactions and as such those of the neighbouring areas were used.
Kulambiro The comparable land data collected within the project area indicated that land with a
Mailo certificate of title was purchased at 4 to 5 million (4,000,000 – 5,000,000) UGX
per decimal.
Bunamwaya Data collected within the project route indicated that a decimal of land is
sold/purchased at UGX 4 million to 5 million ((4,000,000 – 5,000,000) UGX between
Lweza and Bunamanya trading centre and the rate keeps going up, up to 6.5

million(6,500,000,000) UGX towards Kabuusu trading centre.

Sir Apollo Land values within the wider locality vary in relation to zoning and distance off the
Kaggwa road main routes a uniform rate of 1.5 billion (1,500,000,000) UGX was applied per acre.

Other considerations taken into account during the computation of the compensation for land were:
 the size of land affected; and
 nature of interests in land
The Mailo and Freehold interests were assessed at 100% of the market value derived from the market
research. This is because they are perpetual in nature.
The Leasehold interest was assessed at 10% diminution of the freehold interest for leases exceeding 40
years (considered to be long term) while those with a shorter term were assessed individually.
The Leasehold interest was assessed at 125% of the value of the Kibanja interest. This was based on the
costs associated with acquiring a leasehold title from Buganda land board.
The Kibanja interest was assessed at 70% of the value of the Mailo interest with no encumbrances or
secondary interests while the “Landlords interest” (Holder of the Mailo land certificate of title) was
assessed at 30% of the same.

8.3.2.2. Compensation Computation for Crops


Compensation payable for crops was computed using the Kampala District Compensation Rates 2015/16
attached as Appendix L. Enumeration of crops was done mainly by head count. However, enumeration
by area coverage was also used where appropriate. In both cases, the Valuation team was as much as
possible cognizant of the normal agricultural standards. Seasonal crops have been excluded in this
report.
The District Land Board (DLB) develops the District Compensation Rates supported by the District Land
Office (DLO) and other relevant District Technical Team. The developed rates are then submitted to the
Chief Government Valuer’s (CGV) office for review and approval. The CGV reviews and makes changes to
the rates and sends them to the DLB. The rates are then adopted for implementation within the
jurisdiction of the district. The District Compensation Rates can be accessed at the Districts or at the
CGV’s office. It is a statutory requirement that the rates are updated annually.

8.3.2.3. Compensation Computation for Buildings & Structures


Assessment for temporary and semi-permanent structures was computed using District Compensation
Rates while permanent structures were assessed on the basis of open market value in accordance with
Section 77(1) (b) of the Land Act with guidance from the Chief Government Valuer’s office. The Act
states that the value of the buildings on the land shall be taken at open market value for urban areas.

8.3.2.4. Disturbance Allowance
It was assumed that a notice of at least six (6) months would be served to the affected persons to vacate
the project corridor. Therefore, a statutory disturbance allowance of 15% of the total sum assessed was
awarded in accordance with Section 77(2) of the Land Act.

9. VERIFICATION, PAYMENT AND LAND ACQUISITION
9.1. Introduction
This chapter describes the procedure to be followed during the verification and disclosure of PAPs’
entitlements, payment of compensation and land acquisition.

9.2. Verification and Disclosure of Entitlements

9.2.1. Validation of Census Data


KCCA RAP team will review the census data collected by the Consultant. In the event that the period
between carrying out the data and the actual compensation is long for instance 2 years, a review and
update of the census data will be carried out prior to disclosure of the compensation packages. The long
period may come with changes such as death of some PAPs, sale of land, subdivisions among family
members, etc. Validation of the census data will thus help to update and include this kind of
information.

9.2.2. Secure RAP Agreement through Community Consultations &Negotiations


Before commencement of the implementation of the RAP, the compensation team comprising of
Engineers, Lawyers, Valuers, Physical Planners and Sociologists will be required to hold engagements
and negotiations with the PAPs. The purpose of consultations with PAPs during the RAP planning phase
was to disclose information e.g. available options for compensation of some of the properties, to obtain
PAPs’ perspectives (e.g. alternatives), and suggestions, and to reach broad consensus, through a process
of negotiation, about the RAP strategy and compensation packages.

9.2.3. Verification, Disclosure of Compensation Principles and Unit Rates


Disclosure will be carried out by the RAP team responsible for implementing this RAP to enable the
dissemination of the results of the land and property compensation assessment process. The LC I
representatives, PAPs’ representatives and the Community Development Officer will be part of the
verification and disclosure team.
Prior to the individual disclosures, the RAP team will hold meetings with the local government
authorities with particular reference to the District Land Board, Community Development Officer,
District Surveyor, Sub county Chief, Division Mayors, Ward Administrators and Area Land Committee
representatives. The objective of the meetings will be to update them about the project, introduce the
implementing team, introduce the project procedures and principles to be followed during
compensation, elaborate their expected roles and responsibilities and to avail information about all the
other stakeholders involved and their roles. In this meeting, the project schedule will also be discussed.
After the above meetings, the following disclosure meetings will then be carried out.
 The first stage disclosure meeting for the Grievance Resolution Committee team will be
organized at a convenient place that will be decided upon after consultations with the local
leadership and Grievance Resolution Committee members. This meeting will be a training

session for the GRC members to understand the principles of compensation for the different
types of loss and the processes of compensation, their roles and responsibilities in the
resettlement process, etc.
 The second stage disclosure meetings will be at village level with individual households
during which the results of the land and property assessment will be disclosed to them. The
list of each affected individual will be made available at designated village notice boards;
however, no amounts shall be indicated against each name.
 The third stage disclosure is individual meetings with each affected household/institution at
an appropriate gazetted place. The proposed compensation for land and other affected
properties will be disclosed. Family members have to express their consent at this level as
required by Section 40 of the Land Act.

At this stage the following forms will be filled.


1. Verification form(Appendix I). This will be signed by the affected person, the LC I Chairperson,
Community Development Officer and Town Clerk or representative.
2. Bio data form. This will be signed by the Claimant and a KCCA Representative. A copy of the bio
data form is provided in Appendix J.
3. Disclosure form (Appendix K): This will be signed by a number of people such as the claimant,
the next of kin, LC I Chairperson, the Social Development Specialist, The Town Clerk or his/her
representative among others.
Normally, there are high expectations in regard to the compensation packages. Based on the
expectations of the PAPs, some may reject the compensation packages. Discussions with and
explanations to the affected parties will be held by the implementing team. The local government
authorities will be involved in these discussions.
The affected households/institutions will be free to ask any questions before signing the compensation
agreements.The RAP implementers will make sure that the affected households have understood all the
steps and requirements before signing the agreements. Openness and mutual respect will be key in this
process. Affected parties will be provided with a choice of either cash or in-kind compensation to the
extent practically possible.

9.2.4. Conclusion of Agreements or Attempt at Mediation


After verification that the affected property is properly captured / enumerated and after the affected
persons/households / institutions confirm that the compensation and resettlement packages adequately
reflect their lost assets and are acceptable to them, they will sign disclosure agreement forms. In case of
family property or married persons, consent will be given by the spouse and the adult children (18 years
and above) as required by the Land Act Sections 39 and 40.
However, if the affected persons do not agree with the disclosure outcomes, they will be requested to
put it in writing or fill a grievance form so that their issues can be dealt with and matter closed later on.
All relevant documentation such as land agreements, land titles, Letters of Administration in case of

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in Kampala
City

Page 82
death of a property owner, valid identification etc. will be scrutinized and relevant land searches carried
out with the relevant bodies.
If all the relevant documentation is found to be in order and the affected person is in agreement with
the compensation amount, he/she will sign the consent forms. In the event, that the person is not in
agreement with any aspect of the compensation, the PAP will lodge a grievance by filling a Grievance
Resolution Form or by formally writing to the KCCA.

9.3. Payment of Compensation

9.3.1. Compensation Process


The implementation team will draw up a payment plan to ensure that payments are not delayed. The
compensation packages and all relevant information will be verified by the implementation team. The
team will make sure that all relevant documents have been signed by the relevant parties i.e. PAP,
spouses or children, LC I Chairperson, KCCA representative, etc. All issues of ownership shall be worked
out before compensation can be effected. The team shall work hand in hand with the local authorities at
village, sub-county and district levels.

9.3.2. Mode of Payment


The Consultant recommends that payment of cash compensation for all amounts be made through the
bank. Money should be transferred directly from KCCA’s account to the affected persons account
through Electronic Funds Transfer system (EFT). The socioeconomic results indicated that the majority of
the affected persons and institutions have bank accounts. PAPs without bank accounts will be
encouraged to open them up in banks of their own choice. PAPs who will need assistance to open up
bank accounts will be assisted by the implementing team after identifying the nature of assistance
required.

Each person will sign an acknowledgement receipt form for the payment. This form summarizes the
compensation amount per item affected (land, crops, structures) plus disturbance allowance. The
following parties shall sign the Compensation Payment Certificate:

o Compensation recipient/claimant;
o PAP’s witness/Next of kin; and
o KCCA’s representative;

9.3.3. Physical Relocation and Resettlement


The land survey and property assessment showed that a total of 13 buildings will be relocated, 4 of
which are used for residential purposes, 7 used as commercial structures and 2 used by the public
(church and school). Minimal land is affected by the road projectsand most of these structures will
simply need to be shifted backward without total displacement. Chapter 10 of this RAP report further
details on the relocation and resettlement.

City

Page 83
9.4. Land Acquisition Process

9.4.1. Signing of Land Transfer and Land Mutation Forms


Registered landowners (leasehold/private land) sign land transfer and mutation forms and submit the
original certificate of title of the affected land to KCCA for subdivision and transfer of ownership of the
acquired land.

Customary and bibanjaland owners will sign land transfer consent forms to enable their land to be
subdivided and transferred in the name of the government by issuance of a certificate of title.

For those who will voluntarily provide land for the purposes of road construction, they will not be
required to submit their titles for mutation of affected land.

9.4.2. Application for Land Title


The process of land titling starts immediately after compensation payment, signing of land transfer
forms and mutation forms by the PAPs and surrendering of original certificate of title to KCCA. The
individual subdivision survey files for each plot will be prepared and submitted to the district and
national land and survey offices for processing deed prints. Thereafter, the applications for consent
transfer and deed prints are taken to the Chief Government Valuer’s office for stamp duty assessment
which is then paid to Uganda Revenue Authority (URA). Thereafter, the deed prints, proof of payment of
the stamp duty and endorsed transfer forms are taken to the respective district land registry offices to
obtain the mutated and residual titles. At this stage, registration and title charges are paid to the land
registry.

KCCA is obliged to pay all transaction fees for processing of the subdivision and residual titles and to
return all the residual titles to the land owners.

9.4.3. Voluntary Consent Agreements to the Right of Way


Signing of consent agreements is a method of securing the right of way. Those providing land at no cost,
will sign agreements for purposes of road construction, but their land will not be mutated from their
titles. This is explained in the consent form and during community engagements. However, for purposes
mutation KCCA will have to organise compensation, but as a separate future step.

Page 84
10. RESETTLEMENT/RELOCATION
This section describes aspects related to resettlement for physically displaced persons. World Bank
Policy requires that wherever possible, the project should avoid or minimize the displacement of people
by exploring alternative project designs. Several options were considered to minimize the impact of
physical displacement. A total of 13 buildings will be affected, and will require re-construction or
remodelling for those partially affected by the owners. Of the 13 structures, 4are used for residential
purposes, 7 used as commercial structures and 2 used by the public (church and school).

10.1.Eligibility for Resettlement/Relocation


Households and persons eligible for resettlement/relocation will include those:
 With principle places of residence located within the project proposed road reserve;
 With buildings used for businesses;
 With buildings used for public use e.g. churches, schools.

10.2.Resettlement Options
The World Bank resettlement guidelines recommend provision of in-kind compensation or cash
compensation where appropriate. Given the urban nature of the project and given the different tastes
and preferences of the PAPs, PAPs will look for their own resettlement sites.
In addition, the project being linear in nature, coupled with the efforts taken to minimize land take,
affected persons with enough remaining land will be able to shift their buildings backwards (backward
resettlement). The PAPs will have an option of having their affected structures re-instated by project, if
that becomes their preference over cash compensation.

10.3.Relocation Schedule and Assistance


Relocation will be implemented after compensation of the affected assets. A notice to vacate the
premises shall be officially written to the respective PAPs clearly providing ample time i.e. 3-6 months to
relocate as provided for in the national laws. Construction works shall commence after PAPs have been
fully compensated and relocated to the new areas. In cases where PAPs fail to get proper relocation
sites in the given time, the implementing team will liaise with the contractor to commence in the areas
that have been vacated. This will provide more time to the concerned PAPs to look for appropriate
relocation sites. PAPs interested to salvage their materials shall be given a chance to do so. The project
will provide support in expediting the process of building plans for reconstruction or remodelling of the
affected building to facilitate quick adjustment.

City

Page 85
10.4.Integration with Host Communities
Most PAPs will remain in their current residences and business locations, thus not expected to have
relocation and integration issues. In case of any total relocation, interviews with the PAPs showed that
PAPs preferred to relocate to sites within a radius of 1-20km. Moreover, the areas are urban and semi-
urban in nature with similar characteristics of the project area. Integration with host communities will
therefore not be difficult for the affected persons. In addition, given the small numbers of PAPs to be
physically displaced, the need for a dedicated host area is not likely.

10.5.Moving Arrangements
The PAPs shall be given enough time to provide land for the road project and or vacate the land after
receiving compensation. Since there almost no total relocation, but only partial effect of the land and in
some cases a slight shifting backwards, there will not be significant moving activities expected. However,
ample time will be given to those PAPs who structures are affected to salvage the re-usable construction
materials and re-model their buildings. In case of affected perimeter walls, a new wall will be re-built
prior to demolition of the existing one. On the other hand, the Government of Uganda laws provide for
3-6 months depending on the disturbance allowance given. A disturbance allowance of 15% has been
considered in working out compensation packages thus 6 months or more will be given as vacation
period.

11. GRIEVANCE RESOLUTION MECHANISM
11.1.Introduction
This section describes avenues through which PAPs can lodge complaints/grievances related to land
acquisition and compensation. It describes stages and procedures to be followed during grievance
management.
WB OP4.12 Para 13 (a) requires that appropriate and accessible grievance mechanisms are established
to resolve disputes in connection with resettlement and compensation. During the implementation of
the project activities it is possible that disputes/disagreements between the project developer and the
affected persons will occur. Grievances may arise from members of communities who are dissatisfied
with the eligibility criteria, resettlement measures, compensation packages/rates and ownership of
property, etc. Other grievances may include family issues like death of eligible PAPs and thus disputes
between heirs and other family members, divorce/separation of spouses and missing PAPs on the
register among others. It is therefore necessary to establish channels through which aggrieved people
can file their complaints so as to ensure successful project development and implementation.

11.2.Objectives of Grievance Resolution Mechanism


This grievance procedure will not replace existing legal processes in Uganda but rather it will seek to
resolve issues quickly so as to expedite receipt of entitlements and smooth resettlement without
resorting to expensive and time-consuming legal processes. The objectives of the proposed grievance
resolution mechanism are to:
 Provide an effective avenue for expressing concerns and achieving remedies for
communities;
 Promote a mutually constructive relationship between the project and the community or
PAPs;
 Prevent and address community concerns; and
 Minimise the need to resort to expensive court proceedings
The grievance mechanism will ensure that all Project Affected Persons including vulnerable groups e.g.
the elderly, women and the disabled can easily access help at no cost.

11.3.Grievance Resolution Stages


KCCA already has a Grievance Management Process in place. The implementation of KIIDP II roads will
follow the same process to resolve RAP grievances. RAP grievances are handled through the following
processes/stages.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in Kampala
City

Page 87
11.3.1. Stage 1: Division Grievance Committee
The Division Grievance Committee is the first stage that handles grievances from Project Affected
Persons. The Division Grievance Management Committee comprises of the following members:
1. Mayor
2. Town Clerk
3. Officer, Gender and Community Development
4. Environmental Officer
5. LC I Chairperson
6. Representative of the PAPs

The PAP representatives are democratically chosen by the PAPs with the help of their leaders. The
Chairperson of the Division Grievance Committee is the Division Mayor.
In addition to the above members, community level leadership on each road project will identify at least
5 representatives at LC I or parish levels. These will support the core team of the Division Grievance
Committees. Their roles will include sensitisation of communities along the respective roads, receipt of
grievances and support in grievance resolution etc.
If the Division Grievance Committee solves the grievance, it is then closed. However, if it fails to solve
the grievance, they forward it to stage II.

11.3.2. Stage II: Authority Grievance Committee


If the Division Grievance Committee fails to handle a grievance at Division Level, the grievance case is
forwarded to the Authority Grievance Committee for further action. The Authority Grievance Committee
comprises of the following members:
1) Director, Gender and Community Services and Production (Chairperson of the committee)
2) Director, Legal Affairs
3) Director, Engineering and Technical Services.
4) Director, Public Health Services and Environment
5) Director, Physical Planning
The Authority Grievance Committee will ensure that all avenues have been exhausted to solve the
grievance. However, if the two parties fail to agree, the PAP can utilise stage III as a last resort to solve
the grievance.

11.3.3. Stage II: Courts of Law


The constitution allows a right of access to the courts of law by any person who has an interest or right
over property. If the grievance procedure fails to provide a settlement, complainants can still seek legal
redress in courts of law as a last resort.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in Kampala
City

Page 88
11.4.Grievance Resolution Process
Through sensitizations (community meetings, media announcements), the PAPs, other community
members and other stakeholders will be informed of the grievance management mechanisms in place
for them to lodge their complaints and dissatisfactions. The steps that will be followed during the
grievance resolution are as shown below and inFigure 11-1.
 Step 1: Grievances will be lodged by the PAP by filling a Grievance Resolution Form or by
formally writing to KCCA. (Sample of Grievance Form is attached as Appendix M). The forms
will be made available to all the Divisions. PAPs can also lodge their grievances by writing
letters of complaints.
 Step 2: Grievances will be received by the Division Grievance Committee or the support
community team established along each road. The committee will register and categorize
the grievances. Thereafter, it will review the grievance and take all the necessary steps to
resolve the grievance. The findings of the grievance and action plans will be communicated
to the PAP and the Authority Grievance Committee. If the PAP is satisfied then the case will
be closed and the PAP will sign a closure statement. However, if the PAP is not satisfied the
case will be forwarded to the Authority Grievance Committee.
 Step 3: The Authority Grievance Committee will register, categorize and review grievances
received from the Division Grievance Committee. The Committee will communicate its
findings to the PAPs and the lower Grievance Committee. If PAP is satisfied, he/she will a
sign a closure statement. If PAP is not satisfied, then he/she can lodge the case at the courts
of law. The PAP will notify Kampala Capital City Authority of the court ruling.
All measures will be undertaken so that the grievances are solved amicably between the concerned
parties and the courts of law will be the last resort. Efficiency and transparency in solving of the
grievances will be of paramount importance.

11.5.Monitoring of Complaints
In addition to the Grievance Resolution Form, a Grievance Log will be kept by Kampala Capital City
Authority at Division and Authority levels indicating the date the complaint was lodged, a brief
description of the grievance, actions to be taken, status of the resolution, etc. The Chairperson of the
committee will monitor and document the progress of all complaints through weekly or monthly
grievance resolution reports.

11.6.Facilitation of the Grievance Resolution Committee (GRC)


It will be the responsibility of Kampala Capital City Authority to facilitate the activities of the Grievance
Resolution Committee especially at the lower levels i.e. LC I Chairpersons, PAP representatives and
community support teams.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in Kampala
City

Page 89
11.7.Terms of Reference for the Grievance Resolution Committee
The Grievance Resolution Committees (GRCs) composed of representatives from the affected
communities, will be established at each Division / Sub County. It is thus expected that there will be 6
Grievance Resolution Committees at Division levels / Sub County level.

11.7.1. Roles and Responsibilities of the GRCs


The core roles of the LC I’s Chairpersons and PAPs’ representatives will include the following:
 Participate in resolution of grievances related to land acquisition, compensation and
resettlement;
 Mediate between Kampala Capital City Authority and the affected communities;
 Monitor the land acquisition, compensation and resettlement activities;
 Participate in making decisions regarding actions to solve grievances;
 Provide regular feedback to PAPs on Project progress and RAP implementation activities;
 Mobilize Project Affected Persons with grievances to solve; and
 Participate during the disclosure of entitlements and verify PAPs where possible.

11.7.2. Selection Criteria for GRC Members


Representative of community members on the GRC committees will be chosen by their respective
communities during village meetings/community gatherings, and subject to community verification.
Selection criteria will be jointly developed with the affected communities. The following could be used
as a guide when selecting community members on the GRCs:

 The GRC member shall be one of the affected persons;


 Representativeness – the GRC member must be of good standing in the community, have
local knowledge and is willing to represent the interests of the PAPs; and
 Credibility and availability – the GRC member must be trustworthy and available to attend
meetings whenever called upon.
The communities will evaluate these selection criteria to identify the person(s) best suited to represent
them on the GRCs.

11.7.3. Training of GRC Members


Although the existing Grievance Resolution Committees at Division level have been involved in the
execution of the RAP for KIIDP I roads, there will still be need for a refresher training before
commencement of the implementation for KIIDP II roads. This will mainly focus on the challenges faced
and lessons learnt from KIIDP I roads and how best to successfully implement the RAP for KIIDP II. Other
topics for discussion will include the GRC roles, channels of communication, principles followed during
valuation and survey and World Bank Resettlement Principles among others.

12. MEASURESTO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT ON LIVELIHOODS
12.1.Introduction
This section provides for applicable income restoration measures for PAPs along the different roads.
The proposed income restoration measures will minimise the impact of income loss and will provide
PAPs with quick means of re-establishing their livelihoods.
WB OP 4.12 Para (6c) states that displaced persons should be offered support after displacement, for
a transition period, based on a reasonable estimate of the time likely to be needed to restore their
livelihood and standards of living.
In addition, WB OP 4.12 Para (2c) requires that displaced persons should be assisted in their efforts
to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-
displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation,
whichever is higher.

12.2.Impacts on Livelihoods and Income


The census indicated that livelihoods will be affected in terms of reduction of parking space for
shops, supermarkets and other businesses, effect on commercial structures e.g. shops and
tenements. Loss of livelihood will be in form of decrease in customers for those with affected parking
lots, disturbance during construction period, and total loss of customers for PAPs with commercial
structures affected. The people renting the affected premises will also be temporarily affected during
the remodeling or re-construction of the affected structures and others might have to look for
alternative business premises. In addition, temporary loss of operating space for taxi drivers,
bodaboda riders, operators of kiosks and other road side vendors will lead to a decrease in income.
Due to the geographical setting of the project area, agricultural based livelihoods will be minimally
affected.

12.3.Measurers to Minimize Impact on Livelihoods


In general, due to the efforts considered to minimize land acquisition and resettlement during the
design phase, the impact on livelihood will be minimal. In a bid to further minimize the impact on
livelihoods, the following measures will be considered during the implementation of the RAP and the
construction of the respective roads:
 Provision of early notification regarding the commencement of construction activities to
enable affected persons salvage any material that they may need, relocate early enough and
look for alternative premises especially for people renting the affected premises;
 Avoiding total blockage of the remaining parking space as much as possible;
 Restoring affected sections as quickly as feasible;
 Provision of temporary concession for taxes such as rates and licences to facilitate quick
recovery
 Promptly compensating the affected PAPs to enable them restore their commercial buildings
elsewhere;
 Putting in place a Traffic Management Plan to reduce inconveniences to businesses along the
respective roads and thus to minimize the loss of income;
 Provision of temporary business operating areas during the construction period
 Mobilizing and encouraging less affected community members to assist their colleagues with
temporary work process during road construction and reconstruction/remodelling period
Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 93
 Provision of pedestrian access to businesses to minimize the impact of reduction in
customers;
 Early approvals of building plans for PAPs that will require remodelling and relocation of their
structures. This will enable PAPs to quickly re-establish their premises elsewhere and thus
quickly re-establish their livelihoods.
 Early sensitisation of communities along the roads about the negative implications on
businesses during the construction phase especially to people with businesses like kiosks,
bodabodas etc.;
 Proper designation of operating areas after construction of the road to enable the traders
work in organised environment and clean environment.

13. COSTS AND BUDGET
This Chapter provides the cash compensation and resettlement implementation costs for the priority
roads.
13.1.Cash Compensation Budget
The cash compensation for affected property along the priority 8 roads is based on information from
the valuation reports. This estimated budget is presented in Table 13-1 per road/junction.
The estimated total cash compensation for the proposed priority 8 roads under Group 1is Twenty Six
Billion, Nineteen Million, Nine Hundred Eighty Thousand, Five Hundred Seventy Nine Shillings
(UGX26,019,983,579) or Seven Million, Four Hundred Thirty Four Hundred, Two Hundred Eighty
OneUnited States Dollars(7,434,281USD).This figure excludes that valuation amount for land that
PAPs have allowed road construction at no cost, after signing consent agreements, but includes crops
and structures therein.

13.2.Resettlement Implementation Costs and their Basis


The total estimated resettlement implementation budget is Four Hundred Six Million, One Hundred
Eighty Nine Thousand, One Hundred Forty Uganda Shillings. (UGX 406,189,140) or One Hundred
Sixteen Thousand, Fifty Four United States Dollars (USD 116,054). A breakdown of the budget is
presented inTable 13-2.

13.2.1. In-kind Compensation


In kind compensation is assumed to be in form of replacement of perimeter walls and paved
driveways that will be affected along the different roads. Discussions with the affected persons in
regard to this compensation option is ongoing and will continue throughout the implementation of
the RAP. All PAPs who will be interested, will have their walls and driveways replaced by the project.
The implementing agency will provide for security personnel during demolition of walls where found
practical. A budget for in-kind compensation for structures is included in the contractor’s budget.
Since there is no significant impact on land, a budget for in-kind compensation for land has not been
provided.

13.2.2. Additional Support


13.2.2.1. Assistance to Vulnerable groups

A budget to assist vulnerable groups has been proposed. The census indicated that none of the
vulnerable PAPs will be significantly affected by the project. Similarly, none of them will be physically
relocated. Like other affected PAPs, wall fences and paved ways for the vulnerable groups will be
replaced in kind during construction of the different roads. The nature of assistance has therefore
been recommended to include assistance ensuring that they get sufficient information regarding the
project and different alternatives of land acquisition and their implications, they rightfully get their
compensation as well as receiving continuous explanations about the process, assistance to open up
bank accounts, among others. It is however, emphasised that a case by case analysis be done by the
implementing team so as to provide the relevant assistance. The budget for the vulnerable group has
therefore been provided as a contingency in case any monetary assistance is identified during the
implementation phase.

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 95
13.2.3. Administrative Costs
A budget for administrative costs for the implementing team has been put aside. This budget will
cater for costs to be incurred during initial disclosure meetings, the stakeholder engagements and
grievance management.

13.2.4. Inflation Allowance


An inflation allowance has been considered in the budget. This will take into account any increase in
prices that may arise before the implementation of the RAP. The inflation rate in Uganda was
recorded at 6.7 per cent in the month of February 2017. Economic analysts do not expect the
inflation rate to increase significantly in the coming 12 months or more given the previous trends
thus 6.7% of the resettlement budget has been included as an inflation allowance. However, it
should be noted that if the duration between preparation of the RAP and its implementation is long,
say more than 2 years, an update of the valuation report will be required.

13.2.5. Monitoring and Evaluation


Monitoring and evaluation of resettlement and post resettlement activities will be undertaken by
various stakeholders thus a monitoring and evaluation budget of 5% of the resettlement budget has
been provided.

13.2.6. Contingencies
A contingency budget has been provided. Physical contingencies have been included to provide for
any local changes in design or alignment and for any unforeseen circumstances during construction.
The rate for physical contingencies budgeted for is 20% of the resettlement budget.

13.2.7. Sources of Funding


The Government of Uganda under the Kampala Capital City Authority will be responsible for the
funding of the compensation and resettlement activities. It should ensure prompt and adequate
provision plus efficient flow of funds for resettlement.

14. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE AND INSTITUTIONAL
ARRANGEMENTS
This section outlines the different activities that will be undertaken to ensure successful
implementation of the project and their expected timeframes.

14.1.Time Schedule for RAP Implementation


The compensation payments should occur in the pre-construction phase to avoid both delays in the
project construction and stress to the PAPs.Table 14-1 shows the different compensation and
resettlement activities, the timeframes in which they will be implemented and the responsible
bodies and persons. The duration of the RAP implementation is expected to be 23 calendar months.

14.2.Implementation Schedule, Linking Resettlement Implementation to Civil


Works
The resettlement schedules will be coordinated with construction schedules. Before any project civil
works activity is implemented, PAPs will have to be compensated in accordance with the Ugandan
laws and regulations and World Bank resettlement guidelines. No individual or affected household
will be displaced due to civil works activity before he/she has been compensated for his/her losses.
In other words, the implementation of the RAP will have to be aligned with construction activities.
The land acquisition and demolition of houses should be completed within the preparatory stage of
the engineering construction and before the beginning of relevant engineering works.
Projects Affected Persons / Household that will physically be displaced shall be given ample time to
relocate to new areas. The Ugandan law provides for 3-6 months’ notice to PAPs after compensation
to vacate the acquired land. For this RAP, affected persons/households/institutions will be given a
Notice of 6 months to vacate the required land. This is because a 15% disturbance allowance was
included in the computation of the cash compensation packages.
The proposed schedule is thus expected to ensure that all PAPs, prior to their physical relocation,
have;
 Been adequately consulted about the project, its impacts and compensation entitlements;
 Received compensation entitlements in a timely manner; and
 Been provided adequate time to relocate their property.
Figure 14-1below shows the layout of the RAP Implementation schedule. It also presents the linkage
to the civil works/construction schedule.

15. MONITORING AND EVALUATION
15.1.Introduction
This section sets out requirements for the monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of the
RAP in order to successfully complete the resettlement management as per the implementation
schedule and compliance with the resettlement policies and guidelines.
Monitoring and Evaluation includes the establishment of socio-economic background data of the
affected persons prior to actual land acquisition or physical relocation and regular monitoring of their
situation for an extended period of time after land acquisition and relocation.
The main objective of monitoring is to provide the developer and funder with feedback on RAP
implementation and to identify problems and successes as early as possible to allow timely
adjustment of implementation arrangements. Both qualitative and quantitative evaluations will be
made to ascertain whether the affected people have achieved at the minimum their pre-project
standard of living.

15.2.Objectives for Monitoring and Evaluation


The WB’s safeguard policy (OP 4.12) states that the project sponsor is responsible for adequate
Monitoring and Evaluation of the activities set forth in the resettlement instrument. Monitoring will
provide both a warning system for the project sponsor and a channel for the affected persons to
make known their needs and their reactions to resettlement execution.
The Project Implementing Agency will establish a reporting system for the RAP that will:
(i) Provide timely information to the project about all resettlement and compensation issues
arising as a result of RAP related activities;
(ii) Identify any grievances, especially those that have not yet been resolved at the local level
and which may require resolution at the higher levels;
(iii) Document completion of project resettlement and compensation that are still pending,
including for all permanent and temporary losses;
(iv) Evaluate whether all PAPs have been compensated in accordance with the requirements of
this RAP; and
(v) Identify mitigation measures, as necessary, when there are significant changes in the
indicators that may require strategic interventions (e.g. vulnerable groups are not receiving
sufficient support from the project, etc.).

15.3.Monitoring and Evaluation Plan (MEP)


The RAP implementing team will be expected to develop and implement a Monitoring and Evaluation
Plan (MEP). The main indicators that the MEP will measure include impacts on affected individuals,
households, and communities to be maintained at their pre-project standard of living, and better;
improvement of communities affected by the project; management of disputes or conflicts etc. In
order to measure these impacts, the RAP identifies the specific indicators to be monitored; defines
how they will be measured on a regular basis; and identifies key monitoring milestones (e.g. at mid-

15.4.Internal and External Monitoring


Monitoring will consist of internal and external monitoring to ensure complete and objective
information and to avoid biasness.

15.4.1. Internal Monitoring


Internal monitoring of RAP implementation will be undertaken by the KCCA’s resettlement team. This
will be done hand in hand with some of the District and Division staff, the LC I Chairpersons and the
PAPs representatives as far as possible. Internal monitoring will be done at regular intervals i.e.
monthly. Monthly progress reports will be prepared by KCCA’s implementing RAP team and
submitted to KCCA management and project funders. The internal monitoring will look at inputs,
processes, and outcomes of compensation/resettlement/other impact mitigation measures.
Internal Monitoring indicators will include but not be limited to the following:
Personnel, equipment and supplies
 Number of personnel to carry out the different resettlement activities and their
qualifications;
 Type of equipment and quantities for the resettlement activities;
Methods and strategies to carry out the RAP implementation activities
 Methodology and strategies for implementing RAP activities;
 Documented lessons learnt and recommendations to strengthen the design and
implementation of the RAP;
Fund disbursement
 Number of PAPs displaced by the project;
 Compensation paid and timelines;
 Number of PAPs who have voluntarily provided land by signed consent agreements

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 107
 Number of PAPs who have not received compensation;
 Timing of compensation in relation to commencement of physical works;
Grievance Resolution
 Grievance redress mechanisms in place and functioning;
 Number of people raising grievances in relation to the project;
 Number of unresolved/resolved grievances;
 Number of PAPs who have resorted to courts of law;
Public participation
 Participation of District and Division staff and community in the resettlement process;
 Number of public meetings held.
The implementing team will review these statistics to determine whether the RAP implementation
arrangements, as defined in the RAP, are effective in addressing RAP related issues. Financial records
will be maintained by the implementing agency (KCCA) to determine the final cost of RAP
implementation.
Performance monitoring reports shall be prepared by the implementing team at regular intervals
(monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually) beginning with the commencement of any
activities related to resettlement.

15.4.2. External Monitoring


External monitoring will be undertaken by an independent agency or Consultant appointed by KCCA.
These will have extensive experience in social surveys and resettlement monitoring. The external
monitoring will also verify the reports from the internal monitoring. External monitoring activities
will entail the following:
 Periodic evaluation of implementation progress; and
 Completion audit.
The team will at a minimum annually conduct independent monitoring to assess the Project
outcomes as envisaged in the RAP and engage with PAPs in this regard to verify that the Project is
implemented in accordance with the measures outlined in the RAP. The independent monitoring will
be done for the duration of the RAP implementation.
The completion audit of the RAP implementation shall include a:
(i) Summary of RAP performance
(ii) Compliance review of RAP implementation process; and
(iii) Report on the quality of RAP implementation in terms of application of guidelines as
provided in the RAP.
The audit will verify results of monitoring of RAP implementation indicators, and assess whether the
project achieved the resettlement objectives. The audit will also assess the efficiency, effectiveness,
impact, and sustainability of RAP activities. The aim is to learn lessons for application onfuture
projects or other projects in the sector and in the country. Finally, the audit will ascertain whether

Preliminary and Detailed Engineering Design of Selected Road Links and Junctions/Intersections to Improve Mobility in
Kampala City

Page 108
the resettlement entitlements were appropriate. A completion audit report will be submitted to the
funding agency.
To be effective, the completion audit will take place after all RAP activities have been completed but
before the completion of financial commitments to the Programme. This will allow for flexibility to
undertake any corrective action that the auditors may recommend before the project is completed.
An independent party shall be procured by the project sponsors to undertake the completion audit.

15.5.Methods for measuring impacts


The following methods will be used for measuring impacts:
i. Questionnaires,
ii. Available relevant PAPs’ documentation,
iii. Consultations
o Direct consultation with the affected populations through regular meetings, focus group
discussions, or similar forums established.
o Consultations with key informants i.e. local leaders, contractor, etc.
iv. Field visits to the project area and relocation sites where possible.

15.6.Storage of PAPs Details


KCCA which is the implementing agency will be the custodian of all documents related to the Project
and the Project Affected Persons.
