Busia County Integrated Development Plan 2018-2022

Abstract

The County Government Act, 2012, Section 104 and 108, obligates counties to develop a County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) setting up planning units at all county administrative levels. It further sought to promote public participation and engagement by non0state actors in the planning processes. In fulfilment of the aforementioned requirements, the County Government of Busia has developed the second generation CIDP (2018-2022) that is instrumental in linking policy, planning and budgeting process as required. The County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) outlines the process through which efforts at national and devolved levels of government and other relevant public institutions are coordinated at the local level to bring economic, social, environmental, legal and spatial aspects of development together to meet the needs and targets set for the benefit of local communities. Key county development priorities, strategies and programmes and projects were identified by stakeholders in the county. The process was carried out in a participatory manner which entailed extensive stakeholder consultation and involvement. These projects and programmes will be implemented during 2018-2022 period.
