Kilifi County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2021

Abstract

The County Fiscal Strategy Paper (CFSP) is a policy document that sets out the policy goals and priority development areas that will guide budget preparation for the subsequent financial year and the medium term. As such, it informs the County’s public finance management as well as public discussions on economic and development issues thus stirring holistic and sound discourses which incorporate a variety of views and aligns the development plans to the County’s priority issues. This 2021 CFSP outlines the financial outlook with respect to revenues, expenditures and borrowing. The strategic objectives spelt out in this CFSP are derived from the County Integrated Development Plan (2018-2022), Annual Development Plan FY2021/22 and consultative public participation fora on the 2021 CFSP. In addition to this, the 2021 CFSP aligns to the 2021 Budget Policy Statement (BPS) which outlines national government priority policy areas as well as strategic objectives prioritized in the Third Medium Term Plan (MTP III) and the Vision 2030 development blueprint. As such, this 2021 CFSP also complements the policy priorities spelt out in the Big 4 Agenda
