Opposition MPs have resolved to develop a framework to improve their performance in parliament

Opposition MPs have resolved to develop a framework to improve their performance in parliament.

The 109 legislators have been clustered in different sector-based groups where each MP can build capacity and  debate from an informed point of view.

This was part of the resolutions at the three-day retreat of Opposition MPs held at Imperial Botanical Hotel, in Entebbe.

Leader of the Opposition in parliament Mathias Mpuuga, noted that this resolution is a very critical outcome of the retreat since it will empower legislators with adequate knowledge on their areas of interest so that they can represent Ugandans better.

Mpuuga also noted that the Opposition MPs agreed on themes which they need to emphasize through committees, plenary and their individual roles as Shadow Ministers or Committee leaders.
