dc.description.abstract | This is the second revised budget estimates to be prepared for the FY 2015-2016. The revised budget estimates for 2015/2016 have been generated based on the approved budget FY 2015/2016, approved County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2015/2016 and balances from the financial year 2014/2015. The revised Budget will be financed using the equitable share of revenue from the national government, Conditional Grants, Revenue for Busia County erroneously transferred to Bungoma County and the county projected own revenue.
The Budget estimates outline key priority programmes to be funded in 2015/2016 and provides projected estimates for the medium term. To enhance efficiency and coordination the Budget has clearly defined outcomes, priority objectives, expected outputs, and performance indicators for the identified programs.
Programmes from prior years i.e FY 2013-2015 that are incomplete, have been given priority in this revised budget estimates to ensure consistency and prudence in the management of public funds. However, county‘s performance has been affected by emerging issues including delayed funding and lengthy procurement procedures. To this end, the County Government continues to put in place proper mechanisms, while taking advantage of the County strengths, opportunities and key milestones achieved in the last financial year to develop building blocks that are likely to strengthen the possibility of achieving our vision. | en |
