And Whereas under objective (xxvii) of the National Objective and Directive principles of state Policy it is stated among others that:

The state shall take all possible measures to prevent or minimize damage and destruction to land, air, and water resource resulting from pollution and other courses, and

The state including local Government, shall promote the rational use of natural resource so as to safeguard and protect bio-diversity in Uganda
