Robert Mutebi was named the new commissioner in charge of Information Technology and Innovation.

Sarah Chelangat Muzungyo who previously worked with Ernest & Young Uganda, was appointed as the new commissioner in charge of domestic taxes.

Recently, President Yoweri Museveni criticized the tax body for failing to URA performed to its maximum, urging for more efforts.

““When we had just come from the bush, people were collecting money and put in their own pockets. It was in 1991 when we realized there was massive stealing. That’s how we came and said we must create a special department and the idea of URA came. The tax collection jumped to 11% from 4% of GDP. However, it has stagnated there all this time,” Museveni said in September as URA marked 30 years of existence.
