standards and codes. Although there were seven major international codes and standards, which have been identified for domestication, government has made limited progress in this regard. 3.1 Democracy and Political Governance 3.1.1 Although Government, in collaboration with its neighbours, has made significant efforts to re-demarcate the international borders, the process needs to bring on board regional and international commitment to enhance its credibility and for future reference in case of any disagreements. There is no regional or Africa-wide institutional arrangement that is working with the border verification team. 3.1.2 There have been challenges associated with the recruitment and retention of trained staff by ministries, departments and agencies responsible for implementation of the APRM priority actions, e.g. the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development; Uganda Revenue Authority (URA); the Inspectorate of Government (IG); and the Legal Department of the MoFA. 3.1.3 There is no mechanism yet to regulate intra as well as inter-party relations, discipline and conduct. The draft Code of Conduct for political parties is yet to be formulated. The Inter-Party platform provided for in the 1995 Constitution has not yet been established. 3.1.4 There are several Programme of Action priority areas across all the four thematic areas that necessitated wide stakeholder consultations as well as dissemination to generate the required consensus and necessary buy-ins at different levels, such as the Amendment to the Land Act and the formulation of the National Land Policy, among others. There are currently no institutional mechanisms for providing the necessary space for consensus building on different policy matters as well as political issues, especially in the context of the nascent multi-party democracy. There are challenges with the flow of information that is necessary to facilitate the implementation of formulated policies. 3.1.5 The APRM POA called for the review of the current First-Past-the-Post electoral model with a view to injecting the element of proportionality. There have been no consultations undertaken to review the current First-Past-the-Post electoral model.
