Ms. Nankabirwa has also warned MPs against acting contrary to the caucus position without leave of the government Chief Whip including those issuing statements or documents pertaining to the deliberations of the caucus to the media and the general public without permission plus those supporting positions of other political parties contrary to the objectives and policies of NRM.

According to Rogers Mulindwa, the NRM spokersperson, the retreat will among others review the progress in the implementation of the National Development Plan (NDP II) and appreciate insights in NDP III as well as the performance of Government in the implementation of major sectors of the NRM Party Manifesto 2016-2021.
