Expectant Mothers to Receive more free Mama Kits if sh15b Budget is Approved

However, the chairperson of the Parliamentary health committee, Dr. Michael Bukenya, says the sh16bn was allocated for both the mama kits and Family Planning commodities, which was not enough.

Therefore, the 15b will carter for only the mama kits and the 16bn will be left for the Family Planning commodities.

“What we have been allocating for family planning was being used for Mama Kits, so parliament has proposed that we set up an equivalent amount for mama kits and family planning commodities use the original primary amount” Bukenya revealed.
