The Parliament of Uganda is the country's unicameral legislative body. The most significant of the Ugandan parliament's functions is to pass laws that will provide good governance in the country. The government ministers are bound to answer to the people's representatives on the floor of the house. Through the various parliamentary committees, parliament scrutinises government programmes, particularly as outlined in the State of the Nation address[1] by the president. The fiscal issues of the government, such as taxation and loans need the sanction of the parliament, after appropriate debate.[2] Parliament must confirm some Presidential nominations and may force a Minister to resign by passing a motion of censure.
