Going forward, and in view of the macroeconomic circumstances since the inauguration of the county government and the limited resources, MTEF budgeting will entail adjusting non-priority expenditures to cater for the priority ones.
The priority social sectors, education and health, will continue to receive adequate resources though they are required to utilize the allocated resources more efficiently to generate fiscal space to accommodate other strategic interventions in their sectors. The economic sectors including agriculture and livestock will receive increasing share of resources to boost agricultural productivity and initiating value addition ventures as the county deals with threats of food insecurity and poor market returns for agricultural produce.
With the County Government’s commitment in improving infrastructure countywide, the share of resources going to priority physical infrastructure sector, such as roads, energy and water and irrigation, will continue to rise over the medium term. This will help the sector provide reliable and affordable energy, as well as increased access to water and development of irrigation projects across the county. All the other sectors will continue to receive adequate resources in line with our county’s commitment to a balanced sector development so as to enhance the quality of life for the residents of the county
