    (Uganda Management Institute, 2017-05-01) Muzaale, Tonny; Basheka, Benon; Picho Odubaker, Epiphany
    The oversight role of Parliament has been variously described as, for example, Chameleon-like, as ever expanding and as an iconic concept. The oversight role of Parliament is a contested but fundamental concept in the structure of managing public 􀂾 nances in a nation. This article attempts to analyse the oversight role of Parliament and the management of Public 􀂾 nances in Uganda. Mixed methodological approaches are used and the analysis highlights key issues as far as the oversight role of Parliament in the management of public 􀂾 nances is concerned. Speci􀂾 cally, it provides contextual insight into the practical institutional obstacles that Parliament as an oversight institution is facing. It is evident that the weaknesses in the structural and institutional framework exacerbate the magnitude of the challenges facing the oversight role of Parliament.
