What happened
Road maintenance in Apac District has stalled because the District Roads Committee (DRC) cannot be formed. This delay is attributed to Members of Parliament repeatedly missing scheduled meetings. The DRC, established by the Uganda Road Fund Act, 2008, is responsible for prioritizing and overseeing road needs in the district.

Why it matters
The inability to form the DRC has resulted in over Shs250 million in road maintenance funds remaining unused. The committee is vital for providing crucial political and technical guidance on the district's extensive road network.
