The management of Parliament will meet President Museveni next week with proposals on the illegal allocation of land at Nakawa-Naguru.
According to Deputy Speaker Hon. ThomasTayebwa, Parliament will officially ask the President on Friday to schedule a meeting for next week.
The meeting will focus on parliamentary recommendations given in May 2022 to the Lands Ministry on accountability and abuse of office by the Minister of State for Housing, Persis Namuganza.
This decision comes after the Minister of Lands Judith Nabakooba, refused to present action taken on Parliamentary recommendations on land allocation.
When Parliament grilled the Lands Minister on whether action had been taken in regards to the recommendations, she declined to speak, stating that she was not ready.
Nabakooba told MPs on Thursday that her Ministry has not yet studied the recommendations of the committee since Parliament did not formally submit them to her Ministry.
This did not go well with a section of MPs who accused the Executive of undermining parliament resolutions. The MPs stated that the report was presented to the floor of parliament and after its unanimous approval, the government undertook to take action on the recommendations.
On 18th May, Parliament adopted a report by an Adhoc Committee investigating the distribution of 82.05 acres of Nakawa-Naguru land.
Among the recommendations, the House directed that the Minister of State for Housing, Persis Namuganza be held accountable for abuse of office and misleading ULC into the allocation of the land to individuals and entities following Presidential Directives which were non-existent.
Parliament also observed intentional fraud in variation in the acreage of land allocated to different investors.
