The medium-term expenditure framework for 2018/19 – 2020/21 ensures that resource allocation is based on prioritized programmes aligned to the MTP III.  It also focuses on strategic policy initiatives of the Jubilee Administration to accelerate growth, employment creation and poverty reduction.  An evaluation of the macroeconomic situation and a limited resource envelope in recent years shows that adjusting non-priority expenditures to cater for the priority ones will guide the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) budgeting processes. Share of resources for priority physical infrastructure sector, such as roads, water and irrigation, will continue to rise over the medium term. All the other sectors will continue to receive adequate resources in line with our county’s commitment to a balanced sector development to enhance the quality of life for the residents of the county and ensure sustainable economic growth.
