    ABSTRACT

    The study investigated the relationship between Internal Audit Quality, Internal Control Systems

    and Accountability of Discretionary Development Equalization Grant Projects (DDEG) in

    Iganga District Local Government. The study was anchored on the Agency Theory as authored

    by Alchian and Demsetz (1973) and Jensen and Meckling (1976). The study focused on three

    specific objectives which it sought to address. The three objectives were; to examine the

    relationship between the Internal Control Systems and Accountability of DDEG Projects in

    Iganga District Local Government, to examine the relationship between the Internal Audit

    Quality and Accountability of DDEG Projects in Iganga District Local Government and to

    determine the relationship between Internal Control Systems and Internal Audit Quality on the

    variance in accountability of DDEG Projects in Iganga District Local Government. To deliver

    answers to the above objectives, the study adopted a cross-sectional survey design where

    quantitative data were collected from 59 respondents. The questionnaires were used as methods

    of data collection. Descriptive and Correlation analyses were used as methods of data analysis.

    The validity and reliability tests were carried out and the dataset passed with over 70%. 59

    questionnaires were administered to the project managers of DDEG and 51 were returned fully

    completed giving a response rate of 86.4%. The general outcome of the study showed that

    Internal Audit Quality and Internal Control Systems positively correlated with the Accountability

    of DDEG projects in Iganga District Local Government. Other specific findings indicated that

    Internal Control Systems positively correlated with the Accountability of DDEG Projects in

    Iganga District Local Government. Internal Audit Quality also positively correlated with the

    Accountability of DDEG Projects in Iganga District Local Government. The general conclusion

    was that Internal Audit Quality and Internal Control Systems positively correlated with the

    Accountability of DDEG projects in Iganga District Local Government. The study recommended

    that the management of DDEG Projects in Iganga District Local Government should develop

    Internal Control Systems policy focusing on: segregating accounting duties, restricting access to

    financial systems and increasing oversight.
