Nandala Mafabi Nathan, Chairman, Public Accounts Committee, of the Parliament of Uganda discussed how to help citizens to understand how public funds are spent. Governments need to provide clear information on budget plans and account for its actions. Without this action citizens will not make governments accountable.
It is very difficult to provide information to citizens in developing countries because of the lack of Internet access. An independent and effective media is required to support accountable government.
