High Court declines NUP bid to block its exclusion from statutory party funding

Justice & Court Rulings Single source Kampala 31 Oct 2025 Severity: 1/5

According to ChimpReports, Justice Collins Acellam of the High Court Civil Division refused NUP's application for an interim injunction against the Justice Minister's directive limiting statutory funding to IPOD member parties. The judge said the funds had already been disbursed, leaving no status quo to preserve; NUP's main case challenging the 2025 amendment to the Political Parties and Organisations Act remains pending.
