Meru County Programme Based Budget 2023/2024

Abstract

The FY 2023-2024 budget estimates give recurrent and development expenditure allocated to the various departments. The priorities to which allocation has been given is based on the County Integrated development Plan (CIDP) 2023-2027, Annual development plan (ADP), 2023-24 and the County Governments manifesto. The CIDP is itself a representation of the social and economic development aspirations of the people of Meru County, recognizing that these are consistent with the aspirations of all of the people of Kenya under Vision 203 and the National Governments agenda. Section I04 of the County Government Act 2012 requires a County Treasury to prepare the annual budget for the county and coordinate preparation of estimates of revenue and expenditure of the county government. In line with the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2012, these Programme based budget estimates are also guided by a three-year Medium-Term Expenditure Framework covering the period from 2023-2024 to 2025-2026.
