The government has submitted a supplementary budget of Shs48 billion before parliament to enable the Uganda Railways Corporation to acquire second-hand wagons.
The managing director for the Uganda Railways Corporation Stanley Sendegeya while appearing before the parliamentary Budget committee says they have opted to buy second-hand wagons because acquiring new ones is costly and will delay.
He says currently, the country is in need of the wagons to urgently boost trade and also ease transportation of goods.
