Migori County Fiscal Strategy Paper 2020

Abstract

The Migori County 2020 Fiscal Strategy Paper sets out the framework for the preparation of the 2020/21 budget as required under Section 117 of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. It is the County Government’s strategy document for the budget, and provides the link between the Government’s overall policies (as identified in the CIDP) and implemented through the annual budget. An important objective of the paper is to re-emphasize the priorities and immediate concerns of the citizenry. It highlights how the county government will respond to these needs taking into account challenges of both the fiscal and macroeconomic conditions. The paper highlights the outcome of the previous financial year and also realigns itself to the broad national objectives as outlined by the national treasury in the Budget Policy Statement (BPS). It also contains vital information on: macroeconomic policy and plans; overall fiscal strategy, such as revenue projections; the overall resource envelope for the medium-term; overall priority interventions and proposed sectoral expenditure as outlined in the Medium-term Expenditure Framework.
