Bomet County Integrated Development Plan 2018-2020

Abstract

The Constitution of Kenya 2010 created a two-tier level of government, national and county. The county governments are required to prepare five-year County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs). The second Bomet CIDP 2018-2022 was prepared in accordance with Article 220 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, Part XI of County Government Act, 2012, Section 126 (1) of Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, 2012, and other legislations. The Bomet CIDP 2018-2022 was prepared to guide planning and budgeting at county level. The CIDP provides an integrated development planning framework to enhance linkage between policy, planning and budgeting. The CIDP is expected to contribute to the realization of aspirations of Kenya Vision 2030 and its Medium Term Plans and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the county level. The second CIDP will build on the achievements of the first CIDP which was implemented in the period 2013 to 2017. This CIDP articulates my government’s priorities and outlines the policies, programmes and projects which the county government intends to implement during the five years from 2018 to 2022 in order to improve education, health care provision, food security, road network and the living standard of the residents of Bomet County as well as job creation, especially for the youth. The CIDP was prepared through an inclusive and wide consultative process in conformity with the Constitution of Kenya and other guiding legislations. The programmes and projects contained in the CIDP and priorities were set out in consultation with all stakeholders to address the development challenges faced by the community.
