Information which might help

• The reason for this is that Uganda Law Society is not solely able to fund Continuing Legal Education, and gets a contribution from donors like the Justice, Law and Order Sector (JLOS).
• This contribution is however not usually on time, hence causing the postponement of some of the activities to a later date.
