Marsabit County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2022

Abstract

This County Fiscal Strategy Paper (CFSP) is the last in the first term under Marsabit County’s administration led by H.E Gov. Mohamud Mohamed Ali. It sets out the policy goals and strategic priorities that will form the basis for formulation of County’s Financial Year 2022/2023 budget and the Medium Term. The Paper is prepared in accordance with the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. The County priorities and goals outlined herein are based on the Governor’s Manifesto (AMUA) and the transformative agenda pursued by the county leadership as well as sectorial plans and the National Government’s ‘The Big Four Plan’ as contained in the 2022 BPS; all anchored on the Vision 2030, Kenya’s development blue print. The fiscal framework presented in the paper for the medium term will guide the County government in ensuring that there will be efficiency and effectiveness in the implementation of our development policies. As outlined in the previous CFSP 2021, this paper is part of efforts by the County Treasury to continue with expenditure and financial management reforms as well as containing growth of non-priority expenditures in order to create fiscal space for financing priority policy areas. The county government will enhance the budgetary allocations to the productive sectors and closely monitor implementation of projects and programmes that will have the desired impact on the lives of our people. These sectors will no doubt help in unlocking the economic potential of Marsabit County.
