Embu County Integrated Development Plan 2023-2027

Abstract

Embu County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) for the period 2023-2027 has been prepared in line with the 3rd generation guidelines and framework. The plan has been prepared through a rigorous participatory and consultative process. The plan was prepared in line with the Constitution of Kenya 2010 and other national legislations, national development agenda which includes Kenya Vision 2030, Bottom-up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA); and other regional and international conventions. The Constitution of Kenya 2010 under Article 186 and 220(2) (a) assigns the national government the role of prescribing the structure of county development plans and support to counties on economic policy and planning. Sections 102(h), 104(1) and 108 of the County Government Act 2012, requires county governments to prepare a 5-year County Integrated Development Plan which is the basis for appropriation of funds. Further, Section 104 (1) of the Act obligates the county governments to plan for the county and no public funds should be appropriated without a planning framework.
