Parliament inaugurated the first board for the Institute of Parliamentary Studies.
The Board chaired by Dokolo Woman MP Cecilia Atim Ogwal will also have MPs Anna Adeke Ebaju, Gulu Municipality MP Lyandro Komakech, Isingiro South MP Alex Byarugaba Bakunda, Justine Niwagaba and Dr Stella Kyohairwe.
The institute will operate as an agency of the government under the supervision and control of the Parliamentary Commission. It is expected to, among others, conduct training of Members of Parliament and Staff, in Uganda and elsewhere in the world, as well as training for local government officials.
Kadaga is optimistic that the quality of debate and leadership skills in Parliament will improve as the institute takes charge to induct the incoming team of legislators.
