The 11th Parliament will have 529 MPs
Parliament has resolved to rent another building to accommodate more Members of Parliament in the 11th Parliament.
This is because the completion of the new parliament building is being due to change in design.Without renting a new building, a number of MPs would be left with no office.
The 11th Parliament will be with 529 MPs, up from 456 MPs in the 10th Parliament.
The move to rent more offices was disclosed by the Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga while interfacing with MPs from Bugisu and Sebei areas at Hotel Africana in Kampala.
