Tana River County Annual Development Plan 2018/2019

Abstract

This Annual Development Plan (ADP) has been prepared in accordance with Section 126 sub-section I of the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, 2012. The Act stipulates that County Governments shall prepare Annual Development Plans (ADP) in accordance with Article 220 (2) of the constitution. This Annual Development Plan (ADP) 2018/2019 describes the County in terms of the geographical location, size, physiographic and natural conditions, demographic profiles as well as the administrative units. This ADP outlines the broad strategic priorities, policy thrusts and objectives of the County Government of Tana River. The strategic priorities and government policy objectives inform the identification of priority projects and Programmes to be implemented during the financial year. This is aimed at addressing the development challenges faced by the county after making a review of the status of the previous year’s projects, of which a large percentage have had to be shelved in the FY 2017/2018 supplementary budget to cater for the pending bills amounting to Kshs. 1.7 Billion inherited from the previous administration. This represents 69.15% of the FY 2017/2018 development budget.
