Transforming Government since 2001
Government has set the deadline for digital migration to 2015 contrary to the earlier set target of 2012 by the East African Community countries.

Appearing before the committee of parliament on Information, Communication and Technology the minster of ICT, Rukahana Rugunda said that the process for digital migration is ongoing but Uganda is still struggling to hit the target.

He said that it will be hard for Uganda to meet the set target by East African countries after observing the progress of the work but says the country will meet the world set target of 2015.

He says that areas around Kampala will go digital by the end of this year but other areas will follow later.

The chairperson of the committee, Paula Turyahikayo confirmed the minister’s commitment saying that the committee has got information that the transmission cite for digital migration is going to kick off soon.
