There is a unicameral system with sessional and standing committees. Parliamentary business in Uganda is carried out through two types of committee's i.e. sessional committees which conduct oversight over departments and are concerned with policy and action programmes and standing committees which handle issues of accountability, financial oversight, and human rights. There are 13 standing committees and 16 sessional committees and each Member of Parliament must belong to 2 committees (1 standing committee and 1 sessional committee). Most committees have about 20-30 members, and all accountability committees are chaired by opposition parties. There is no specific committee responsible for monitoring and evaluation however that function is built-in within the mandate of sessional committees.
