| dc.description.abstract | This Fiscal Strategy Paper is the third to be prepared by the county government. It has set priority programmes to be implemented during the financial year 2016/2017 and in the medium term. The framework comprises four pillars: (i) improvement of governance and administration through investment in devolution structures for effective service delivery; (ii) social transformation through investment in healthcare services, education, youth, culture and social services; (iii) agricultural transformation for improved food security through investment in crop production, fisheries and livestock production; and (iv) transformation of county infrastructure and communication through Investment in road network and ICT services.
Progress has been made in most sectors since the establishment of the County Government of Siaya in March 2013. Several projects have been implemented in agriculture, infrastructure; education, youth and culture; trade and health sectors, which have resulted in improved agricultural production, accessibility and social care amongst others. To improve on the gains made thus far and push service delivery to greater heights, the theme of the previous fiscal strategy paper: “Transforming County Economy through Infrastructure and Socio-Economic Development” has been sustained. | en |
