Object of the Bill
The object of this Bill is a reform, consolidate and streamline the law relating to tourism and in particular to set standards for service within the tourism sector; to provide for licensing, regulating and controlling of the tourism sector; to give effect to the implementation of the tourism policy for Uganda, 2003; to reconstitute the Uganda Tourist Board to make it private sector driven; to establish a tourism development levy; to establish a Tourism Development Fund. The Bill redesignates the Board as Uganda Tourism Board.
As of now the law of tourism is spread out in several enactments in an uncoordinated manner. Hence the need to promote a new bill to rectify the situation.
